iraqi screen: "These Days
These days are the most fearful days I have ever seen in Iraq, stories of kidnapping and killing have made me walk in the street and look around in fear some one might be chasing me or another might jump and drag me in a car or shoot me to death."

USA: A New Dictatorship?

Asia Times Online :: Asian News, Business and Economy.: "Wars of aggression, torture, domestic spying and arbitrary arrest are the hallmarks of dictatorship, yet Congress, run by the president's party, has refused to conduct full investigations into either the false WMD claims, or the abuses and torture, or the warrantless wiretaps, or the imprisonment without habeas corpus.

More about the last post. I feel for the Heitholt family, and hate something as senseless as this, but I have a feeling these two didn't do it. That one was a little crazy and very suggestable and the other just got screwed.

The Bush logic is not only skewed, it is asinine.

You said it.

Here is an excerpt from an op-ed piece I stumbled across by Anthony Wade

I think he summed it up pretty well considering the death and destruction GWB has brought to the world


The Bush logic is not only skewed, it is asinine. His argument centers on outlawing the destruction of embryos, which will be destroyed anyway.

The cynic inside of me wonders if the Pharmaceutical Lobby that owns Bush would prefer a sick world where medication can alleviate symptoms but not impart a cure.

Moving past the why, Bush then attacked the proposed law by offering up this hypocritical nugget, "This bill would support the taking of innocent human life in the hope of finding medical benefits for others. It crosses a moral boundary that our decent society needs to respect, so I vetoed it."
