    Anyone listening to Ron Insana’s radio program today heard Ron, with his 2 guests, US Generals Francona and Downing, field callers questions about the situation in Iraq.
    I called in and asked 3 quick questions. To paraphrase the questions:
    1. On Supporting the Troops: I noted that the Generals expressed the need for more money to be allocated by Congress to the occupation, and I asked how can we give them more money when much of it goes missing. I asked about Halliburton and the missing (…)

    AUDIO FILE NOW AVAILABLE FOR LISTENING!
    Blogged by Brad in Portland, OR
    Just finished my hour on the Ron Insana Radio Show with Ann Coulter...Well, half hour with Coulter. She left at the bottom of the hour for some reason.
    Prior to the show, when Ron asked her off air if she would be able to stay for the full hour, she said "Well, I had it down for 30 minutes, so I’ll have to let you know at the bottom of the hour if I can stay."
    For some reason or another, she was then gone after (…)

    4 October 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    A Texas grand jury indicted Rep. Tom DeLay on a new charge of money laundering Monday, less than a week after another grand jury leveled a conspiracy charge that forced DeLay to temporarily step down as House majority leader.
    Both indictments accuse DeLay and two political associates of conspiring to get around a state ban on corporate campaign contributions by funneling the money through a political action committee to the Republican National Committee in Washington.
    The RNC then sent (…)

    4 October 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    A US soldier convicted of humiliating and abusing Iraqi prisoners has said she knew of "worse things" happening at Abu Ghraib.
    Former private first class Lynndie England also insisted on Sunday that military commanders were fully aware of what was going on in Iraq’s infamous jail. In her first post-court marshal interview, England contradicted assertions by top Pentagon officials that a small group of out-of-control soldiers was responsible for abuse at Abu Ghraib and said that (…)

  • Why I No Longer Support The Military! They Have Betrayed Us!
    4 October 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    I can no longer support the military and let me tell you why. By “military” I mean the higher echelon, the generals, - the commanders, - those who are using our enlisted troops as fodder. Our enlisted men and women are the pawns sent to bleed and die in the Bush wars, and have become the fall guys who take the blame for the horrors in this illegal and immoral war.
    I have spent every day of my life for the past 3 years fighting for my nation and fighting for our troops. Yes, I have fought (…)

    Miers Led Law Firm Repeatedly Forced to Pay Damages For Defrauding Investors
    In case anyone thought Harriet Miers wasn’t a corporate-shill-in-White-House-clothing, take a gander at how Miers did her best Ken Lay impression while heading a major Texas corporate law firm. That’s right, according to the 5/1/00 newsletter Class Action Reporter, Miers headed Locke, Liddell & Sapp at the time the (…)

    The usual suspects
    October 3, 2005
    The Bush administration hesitantly walked another step closer to collapse last week with the admission that Vice President Cheney’s chief of staff Scooter Libby was the second senior administration official to have disclosed the identity of Valerie Plame, former CIA officer involved in a covert operation to provide intelligence on weapons of mass destruction, to the press, in this case Judith Miller of the New York Times. Libby now joins White House (…)

    "The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State." — Dr. Joseph M. Goebbels, Propaganda Minister of Nazi Germany.

  • Playwright August Wilson dies at 60 : Portrayed history of black America
    4 October 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    By Ed Siegel
    August Wilson, the country’s preeminent African-American playwright, died yesterday at the age of 60 from liver cancer.

They featured large ensembles of black actors playing characters debating how to carry themselves in the face of limited opportunities and resources. Although white racism was rarely (…)
