Putting Country First...Sarah Palin..?

clipper's remarks: Posted by me at the NY Times..in response to Tom Friedman..

We saw this with the Bush administration repeatedly that ideologues were placed in high positions due their ideological purity and zealotry over those with appropriate experience and competence..

This was a big factor in our early long term failures in Iraq and Katrina, FEMA, The FDA, The Justice Dept. as well so many other bureaus and agencies..

Palin was selected and appears to be inflicted upon America soon due to her gender and ideological zealotry..alone..!

So this is just more of the same, as we experienced with Bush these many years to disastrous results, and now McCain sees fit to repeat this tendency, to reward and promote beyond their abilities those who are ideologically pure, zealots and sycophants..

How is this in any manner putting, Country First..?

Coming Soon: "An Inconvenient Truth" For The Economy

The movie, "I.O.U.S.A.," debuting Aug. 21, is an 87-minute alarum on what it calls the tsunami of debt bearing down on the United States' future, caused by the rising national deficit, the trade imbalance and the pending costs of baby boomers cashing in on entitlements.

If you stacked $1,000.00 dollar bills $1 billion would reach up 63 miles high.. well into space so let's see $490 billion that's 63 X's 490 equals..30,870..

So Bush's Deficit equals 30,870 miles high of $1,000.00 bills...that's a pile 30,870 miles high of $1,000.00 bills that's how much $490 Billion is...!

Crimes and Misdemeanors

By Emily Bazelon, Kara Hadge, Dahlia Lithwick, and Chris Wilson
Posted Thursday, July 24, 2008, at 6:55 AM ET

Each scandal is represented by a colored circle that encompasses the people who are implicated. As it's easy to see, many of the players here are mixed up in two, three, or more of the alleged crimes. Hence all the overlapping circles (Venn-diagram heaven!).

7 GOP Represenatives of Judiciary Comm. Call for Impeachment of Bush...!

Headlined on 7/11/08:
Seven Republican Members of House Judiciary Call for Impeachment out of Duty to the Constitution?

GOP Reps. Smith, Sensenbrenner, Coble, Gallegly, Goodlatte, Chabot, and Cannon after much deliberation put the Constitution and rule of law before politics. Rep. Lamar Smith stated, “As much as one might wish to avoid this process, we must resist the temptation to close our eyes and pass by. The president's actions must be evaluated for one simple reason: the truth counts.”

We should not underestimate the gravity of the case against the president. When he put his hand on the Bible and recited his oath of office, he swore to faithfully uphold the laws of the United States - not some laws, all laws.

Stop the New FISA Law....

Stop the new FISA

Allowing the new surveillance law to stand would seriously cripple our free press.

If the sweeping surveillance law signed by President Bush on Thursday -- giving the U.S. government nearly unchecked authority to eavesdrop on the phone calls and e-mails of innocent Americans -- is allowed to stand, we will have eroded one of the most important bulwarks to a free press and an open society.

The new FISA Amendments Act nearly eviscerates oversight of government surveillance. It allows the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to review only general procedures for spying rather than individual warrants. The court will not be told specifics about who will be wiretapped, which means the law provides woefully inadequate safeguards to protect innocent people whose communications are caught up in the government's dragnet surveillance program.

Chomsky: Bush & Cheney Always Saw Iraq as a Sweetheart Oil Deal

U.S. war planners want an obedient client state that will house major U.S. military bases, right at the heart of the world's major energy reserves.

The deal just taking shape between Iraq's Oil Ministry and four Western oil companies raises critical questions about the nature of the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq -- questions that should certainly be addressed by presidential candidates and seriously discussed in the United States, and of course in occupied Iraq, where it appears that the population has little if any role in determining the future of its country.
