BBC - Radio 4 Document - Greenham's Hidden Secret

BBC - Radio 4 Document - Greenham's Hidden Secret: "The coup was aimed at toppling President Franklin D Roosevelt with the help of half-a-million war veterans. The plotters, who were alleged to involve some of the most famous families in America, (owners of Heinz, Birds Eye, Goodtea, Maxwell Hse & George Bush’s Grandfather, Prescott) believed that their country should adopt the policies of Hitler and Mussolini to beat the great depression.

Mike Thomson investigates why so little is known about this biggest ever peacetime threat to American democracy."

Wow. Bush's grandfather was involved in a plan that would try to install fascism in the United States through a coup. Now Bush, the grandson, has manged to do just that. I had previously heard about Prescott's financial dealings with the Nazis, but not about his support for a takeover of the government.

FOXNews.com - Bush Surprises Senate Aides With Unexpected Interruption of White House Meeting - Politics | Republican Party | Democratic Party | Political Spectrum: "Bush was described as folksy, adamant and mildly profane as he interrupted the meeting between senior White House communications staffers Tony Snow and Ed Gillespie and GOP leaders. His message: the policy on Iraq isn't changing. He is not backing down and no one on Capitol Hill should be confused into thinking he is letting up."

"I am King George, the decider, and you all shall bow to my will." His stance on Iraq reminds me of an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. In this episode, an experiment carried out by Wesley Crusher goes awry, trapping his mother, Dr. Beverly Crusher, in a warp field bubble, essentially a mini-universe, that is constantly contracting. As this bubble draws in, Dr. Crusher finds less and less people at her side. Eventually, she is all alone in her own little universe. This is Bush. His bubble is collapsing, but he still feels, in his own little universe, that Iraq is going well. At the last moment, Dr. Crusher was saved, before the bubble fully collapsed and she was collapsed into nothingness. I say let Bush's bubble keep collapsing.

Cheney pushes Bush to act on Iran | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited

Cheney pushes Bush to act on Iran | Special reports | Guardian Unlimited: "The vice-president, Dick Cheney, has long favoured upping the threat of military action against Iran. He is being resisted by the secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice, and the defence secretary, Robert Gates.

Last year Mr Bush came down in favour of Ms Rice, who along with Britain, France and Germany has been putting a diplomatic squeeze on Iran. But at a meeting of the White House, Pentagon and state department last month, Mr Cheney expressed frustration at the lack of progress and Mr Bush sided with him. 'The balance has tilted. There is cause for concern,' the source said this week."

The dark lord used his power of the dark side to sway Bush. Or perhaps Cheney just gave bush an unlimited supply of crayons to color his signing statements with. Goodbye Iran...

The Raw Story | Bush: Insurgents in Iraq same as 9/11 attackers

The Raw Story | Bush: Insurgents in Iraq same as 9/11 attackers: "President Bush, defending his troop surge in Iraq, insisted Thursday that the insurgents attacking US troops in Iraq 'are the same ones who attacked us on Sept. 11.'

Bush was speaking at a White House press conference on the same day an interim progress report on his troop surge in Iraq was released. Asked for proof of the connection between insurgents in Iraq and the 9/11 hijackers, Bush said both had pledged their allegiance to Osama bin Laden."

Same lie, over, and over, and over again...

From Natural Born Killers:

"Repetition works David. Repetition works David. Do you think any of those nit wits in Zombieland remember anything?"

Bush sharpens budget attack on Democrats - Yahoo! News

Bush sharpens budget attack on Democrats - Yahoo! News: "'They are working to bring back the failed tax-and-spend policies of the past,' he said in his weekly radio address. 'Democrats are failing in their responsibility to make tough decisions and spend the people's money wisely.'"

Oops, did he forget that he has already run the national debt up to over 8 trillion dollars himself? Did he forget the cost of the war in Iraq has cost this nation more than 400 billion? How is he spending our money wisely?

AlterNet: Bush Lets Libby Walk

AlterNet: Bush Lets Libby Walk: "Libby had become a symbol of the Bush White House's problem with the truth. After all, his lies had been designed to block FBI agents and federal prosecutors from learning the full truth of a White House effort to discredit a critic who had accused the Bush administration of twisting the prewar intelligence. And now the final act in the long-running CIA leak scandal -- Bush's commutation -- stands as another symbol of this grand theme: lying doesn't really bother this crowd.

In the 2000 presidential campaign, Bush claimed he would bring responsibility to the White House and, as a PR stunt, he dubbed his campaign jet Accountability One. Yet with this commutation, he takes the position that in his administration an aide who purposefully misleads government officials investigating a possible national security crime need not be held fully accountable."

Bush is the decider, and he has decided to let Libby go. Why did he not go all the way? He will still get huge amounts of criticism, he might as well have given Libby a full pardon. 30 months of jail was apparently too much time for a person who conspired to out a covert CIA agent, because her husband spoke against the war. This could have possibly endangered other operatives and national security as a whole. Then he proceeded to cover it up with lies. This is another shining example of how corrupt this administration is.

The Raw Story | 'No modern president has experienced such a sustained rejection;' Kissinger: Bush 'at peace'

The Raw Story | 'No modern president has experienced such a sustained rejection;' Kissinger: Bush 'at peace': "'I find him serene,' Kissinger said. 'I know President Johnson was railing against his fate. That's not the case with Bush. He feels he's doing what he needs to do, and he seems to me at peace with himself.'"

Well I am glad he is at peace. At least someone is at peace. I bet the Iraqis are glad he is at peace too, and I bet the families of the fallen soldiers, the maimed soldiers, the mentally wrecked soldiers, the families of the Katrina victims, the slowly-dying 9/11 workers, and the families of 9/11 victims are also glad that Mr. Bush is at peace. What has his "peace" cost us as a nation?

The Raw Story | Government watchdog says Bush ignored law after 30% of signing statements

The Raw Story | Government watchdog says Bush ignored law after 30% of signing statements: "The Government Accountability Office issued a report showing that US government agencies ignored Congressional legislation on 30% of the occasions when President George W. Bush issued a 'presidential signing statement' after signing bills into law."

This is called "How to become a secret Dictator: 101." Bush has issued more "singing statements" than all of the other presidents combined, and, unlike most previous statements, they are worded such that he can ignore the law he just signed.

Think Progress » Snow: Bush Will Not Listen To No Confidence Vote, ‘Not A Bit’

Think Progress » Snow: Bush Will Not Listen To No Confidence Vote, ‘Not A Bit’: "Tomorrow, the Senate will introduce a no confidence resolution on the management and credibility of embattled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. Rarely used throughout American history, the resolution, if passed, would be a 'historical black mark' on Gonzales and the Bush administration."

Bush will not listen? No way!!! He must keep Gonzales in order to continue the election-rigging process. If we have an election in 2008, the administration must make sure another neocon puppet is sworn in. (Giuliani)

Update: Check out this little statement from Bush about the matter at hand, found on Salon.com:

"'Yes, it's an interesting comment about Congress, isn't it?' Bush responded. 'On the one hand, they say that a good general shouldn't be reconfirmed, and on the other hand, they say that my attorney general shouldn't stay. And I find it interesting. I guess it reflects the political atmosphere of Washington. And they can try to have their votes of no confidence, but it's not going to determine -- make the determination who serves in my government.'"

Apparently our government is no longer "of the people, by the people, for the people." The government belongs to the decider, King George of America.

Andy Borowitz: TB Guy Tops Bush in New Poll - Politics on The Huffington Post

Andy Borowitz: TB Guy Tops Bush in New Poll - Politics on The Huffington Post: "In the latest sign of erosion for President George W. Bush's job approval rating, a new poll released today reveals that Mr. Bush is now less popular among the American people than the so-called 'TB Guy,' Atlanta attorney Andrew Speaker.

While the president's approval numbers have been in a virtual free-fall in recent months, few political insiders expected him to be trounced by Mr. Speaker, who has been accused of exposing airline passengers to tuberculosis.

Additionally, the poll results are historic in another way, since they mark the first time that a sitting president has been deemed less popular than a quarantined disease carrier."

This is great. When you think about it though, even if all of the people who were in contact Mr. Speaker developed tuberculosis, he still would have caused less deaths than Bush.

The Raw Story | Fox analyst: 'Space aliens kidnapped president' and 'left this tool'

The Raw Story | Fox analyst: 'Space aliens kidnapped president' and 'left this tool': "The discussion led to an unlikely reversal of political positions, with conservative Fox political analyst Tammy Bruce describing the situation as 'another glaring example of the growing incompetency of the Bush administration and his foreign policy,' while Democratic strategist Bob Beckel concluded that 'I support Bush on this ... and it's a strange day when I do that.'"

Surprisingly, it is a right-winger calling Bush a tool, and a lefty supporting Bush. But then again, immigration reform has always been unpopular with the right.

The Raw Story | Arkansas GOP head: We need more 'attacks on American soil' so people appreciate Bush

The Raw Story | Arkansas GOP head: We need more 'attacks on American soil' so people appreciate Bush: "In his first interview as the chairman of the Arkansas Republican Party, Dennis Milligan told a reporter that America needs to be attacked by terrorists so that people will appreciate the work that President Bush has done to protect the country.

'At the end of the day, I believe fully the president is doing the right thing, and I think all we need is some attacks on American soil like we had on [Sept. 11, 2001],' Milligan said to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, 'and the naysayers will come around very quickly to appreciate not only the commitment for President Bush, but the sacrifice that has been made by men and women to protect this country.'"

What a an idiot, but of course, that is Bush's plan to take complete control, another "terrorist" attack. I am sure he will enlist the help of the CIA, and the Al-Queda operatives that they are allegedly now paying, to do his bidding.
