    Original premise of war proven to be bogus long after country commits to ruinous quagmire? Check.

    "President Bush charged Tuesday that anti-war protesters like Cindy Sheehan who want troops brought home immediately do not represent the views of most U.S. military families and are ’advocating a policy that would weaken the United States.’"
    Bringing our troops home from the quagmire that he has gotten us into will be weakening the United States? George: even if you pretend you didn’t know that Saddam did not have weapons of mass destruction and Iraq was not threat to (…)

    It appears that a strengthened U.S.A. Patriot Act will soon sail through Congress with little opposition or consternation on the part of the American people. The new Patriot Act is even more stringent than the original. In addition, many of the more egregious elements of the Patriot Act which were originally scheduled to sunset are made permanent in the latest version. And the vast majority of the American people do not seem to mind. (…)

    WASHINGTON, Aug. 22 - An active-duty Navy captain has become the second military officer to come forward publicly to say that a secret intelligence program tagged the ringleader of the Sept. 11 attacks as a possible terrorist more than a year before the attacks.
    The officer, Scott J. Phillpott, said in a statement on Monday that he could not discuss details of the military program, which was called Able Danger, but confirmed that its analysts had identified the Sept. 11 (…)

    August 23, 2005
    It is not only Lance Armstrong that makes wheels spin. George Bush has determined not to let reality intrude on his fantasy in Iraq, so he and his thugs engage in spinning the truth like Whirling Dervishes. He has decided to wage an intensive personality campaign, manic in intensity, in which he struts, swaggers, grins, smiles broadly, gives bear-hugs, stares intensely to show sincerity, and does his level best to (…)

    The US military is building a new base and conducting secretive operations in Paraguay ... our Embassy there refuses to acknowledge a base exists and describes the military activity as routine.
    The base is in Mariscal Estigarribia, 200 km (127 miles) from the Bolivian border and will handle large aircraft and accommodate 16,000 troops.
    There are now 500 of our troops there with planes, weapons, equipment and ammunition. Either (…)
