  • Where is Cheney?

    Has anyone noticed that Dick Cheney has not been interviewed or heard from.
    yes Bush runs this country, but he also has a right hand man- Vice President Cheney.
    Is it me or have I missed something here.
    So I googled his name to see if he made some sort of show of support or denouncement of this tragedy and all I could find was articles about him and oil meetings in Canada and other places.
    In fact all the other news links are about him and oil.
    What’s really going on?

    Mainstream media ignores negative news to aid Bush administration
    by Brian Richards
    WASHINGTON, D.C. — (OfficialWire) — 09/04/05 — In the words of Gomer Pyle-Surprise, Surprise, Surprise. Just Google the name [Safia Taleb al-Suhail] for news and you will discover that very few members, if any, of the so-called mainstream media consider this lady’s most recent quote newsworthy and frankly, that’s newsworthy to me.
    You may recall her-she was the Iraqi woman George W. Bush exploited (…)

  • While Bush fiddles, New Orleans dies

    This is a review of the performance of George W. Bush in tight times in this nation. It might explain the single solitary most catastrophic collapse of American government in all of our times. Mark ye well. This was the week when we turned a major American city into Haiti, and racism put its hand out and started to choke a nation, and it may not let go.
    With the water coming from the sky and the bottom of the sea, driving with such ferocity that a major American city, New Orleans, followed (…)

  • Declaration of New Orleans

    A Declaration of The People of the United States of America Concerning the Present Crisis in the City of New Orleans.
    In the name of the People of the United States of America, we declare:
    That for the last four and a half years the President and his administration have served the interests of a few wealthy citizens and not the interests of the American People.
    That he has acted with contempt for the People and for the Constitution and the laws of the United States.
    That an edict of (…)

    By William Fisher
    Iraq “is failing, or perhaps already failed”, says an American contactor who continues to carry out economic development work there as the country descends into “expanded gang warfare” and “the saddest story since Vietnam”.
    The contractor, who spoke on condition of anonymity, described some of the missteps of U.S. and Iraqi authorities and of the daily power struggles among and between factions.
    “The problem is the government and the country, which is failing, or (…)

  • The President’s Priorities: State of Marriage Took Precedence over State of Louisiana

    by Jason Leopold
    Why is President Bush more concerned with the state of marriage than the state of Louisiana?
    That’s what the New Orleans City Business paper asked in early February, a couple of weeks after Bush’s State of the Union address, in which the president called for a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriages, upon learning that Bush’s budget proposal recommended slashing $34 million from the New Orleans district of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, leaving the city (…)

    SPINNING IN CIRCLES
    By Peter Fredson
    A minor rant in the aftermath of Katrina
    September 4, 2005
    Coincidence? Just before the Twin Towers attack George W. Bush was on vacation, getting on with his life, cutting brush on his ranch. After the attack Bush was reading a kid’s book, got on a plane, headed for a bunker, then later stood on rubble with his arm around a fireman. For the next 2 years he made speeches about his heroic action in failing to recognize that terrorists would strike (…)

    "...also, the seas will lose their salt and become oceans of lemonade." conjecture from poster at Redstate.org concerning ID definition Intelligent design or ID is in the news recently after President Bush gave proof that he thought that ID deserved debate.

  • Why won’t the National Guard and Homeland Security allow the Red Cross to help in New Orleans?
    4 September 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    Hurricane Katrina: Why is the Red Cross not in New Orleans? Access to New Orleans is controlled by the National Guard and local authorities and while we are in constant contact with them, we simply cannot enter New Orleans against their orders. The state Homeland Security Department had requested—and continues to request—that the American Red Cross not come back into New Orleans following the hurricane. Our presence would keep people from evacuating and encourage others to come into the (…)
