    Bush Confused About Leaks By Larry C Johnson Tuesday, 27 June 2006 at 17:03 Bullshit alert! After watching George Bush and Dick Cheney weep and wail over the "damage" done by the New York Times for reporting that financial data is being dumped into the CIA as part of an effort to find terrorist networks, I kept waiting for Darryl Hannah to pop up and say, "Live, from New York, it’s Saturday Night". Does George have Alzheimer’s Disease? Has he forgotten that he used to love the New York (…)

    DUMB AS A FENCE POST?
    By Peter Fredson
    June 28, 2006
    Many people have debated the mentality and honesty of George W. Bush. There is a hard-core fundamentalist Christian Republican component that still believes George Bush is a good president, a canny strategist, and a compassionate conservative. But about 70% of Americans feels he is the worst president that has ever disgraced this country. They point out that “staying the course’ is a sure indication of lack of imagination and that (…)

He’s going to petition the right to sue Bush - allegedly seeking redress for Bush’s unconstitutional `signing statements’ ....

    A monetary system of ownership through title obtained by purchase, war, or deception is nothing but the demonstration of a failure in human vision and purpose. It can be seen from its very structure that it modus operandi - method of operation - is both primitive and caters to a structure of well educated oppressors and poorly educated slaves. A system where information and its distribution plays the key and pivotal role in what will happen and what level of support the oppressive (…)

    Vice President Cheney, Chef In Chief By Larry C Johnson Monday, 26 June 2006 at 20:08 The evidence now on the public record is overwhelming and, if we could have a jury, Vice President Dick Cheney would be found guilty of cooking the intelligence and lying us into war. Three remarkable and compelling pieces of evidence have hit the streets within the last two weeks. Let’s start with today and work backwards.

    So What Is Bush’s Post-Iraq Strategy? By Ellen Goodman 06/24/2006 It was probably not the wisest metaphor to choose for a country with only 58 kilometers of shoreline. "Cut and run’’ is, after all, a nautical term. More to the point, one person’s metaphor for cowardice is another’s description of speed and survival. As for the other mantra of war debate? We’re still at sea on whether to "stay the (disastrous or not) course.’’
    The good news is that the public seems to have finally (…)

    George, We’re Not In Texas Anymore By David Broder Monday, Jun. 26 2006 The storyline of the week was "Republicans in Retreat’’ as major pieces of President Bush’s legislative program hit roadblocks on Capitol Hill.
    The subtext was a largely unexamined cultural-political gap between the president and important parts of his core constituency, a rift that only now in his sixth year in office is becoming evident.
