We already knew that, Scotty. Question for you, Scotty. How come when Bush and Cheney lied to you, you were the only one who didn't know they were lying? Why did it take you this long to figure that out?

Jane Harman's bill provides that we can be investigated for demonstrating in support of the Constitution. An article at Common Dreams by Ralph Shaffer and William Robinson points out the insidious effect of Jane Harman's mouthful of balderdash, the "Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act." I'm not kidding, that's what its called.

Bush is trying to set up OpEdNews as a "terrorist recruiter." An article here on OpEdNews on Nov. 14 by Barbara Peterson warns of how Homeland Security is trying to falsely protray web sites that publish articles questioning the events of 9/11 as terrorist recruiters. Her article didn't get the attention it deserves.

George Bush is the best Republican of all time George Bush is the ultimate example of Republicanism. Just look at what he has accomplished by applying Republican ideology. Some of the information from an article in Vanity Fair by Joseph E. Stiglitz proves it.

Mukasey is Bush's stalking horse. Bush sent in Mukasey as a stalking horse to see just how much he can get away with.

We're dealing with the bloody entrails instead of the bomber. When everything that the Bush/Republicans do is completely, totally outrageous, we're left with nowhere to grab hold of anything more outrageous than anything else. When everything is outrageous is anything outrageous? We neet to give up dealing with the acts and focus on the actor.

Willful ignorance of the obvious. Willful ignorance of the obvious by lawyers who know better and the news media that doesn't report all of the facts frees George Bush from having to answer for his crimes.

Contempt of Congress. John Conyers sent me an email explaining how important it is for the House of Representatives to cite the White House with a contempt of Congress resolution. Conyers is unaware that, even if he could, which is doubtful, passing a contempt resolution has exactly the same effect as doing nothing at all.

Due diligence. George Bush's Department of Defense says that the reason that seven months after it was revealed that they have done little or nothing to end the nightmare conditions for wounded veterans of the Iraq war is that they are exercising "due diligence." Had the Pentagon actually exercised due diligence, there would be no dead or wounded veterans.

The twenty buck solution Just think how different things would be if George Bush had gotten a blowjob. Let's compare mass murder to blowjobs as seen from the viewpoint of the Republicans and the viewpoint of the rest of us.

The worst is yet to come. George Bush, when given a choice, has an innate ability to make the worst possible choice. His choice of Ashcroft was bad, Gonzales was worse, but we haven't seen the worst, yet.

Creeping Bushism. It's ironic that we could actually have another Judgment at Nuremberg with the roles reversed. This time, it would be the Germans sitting in judgment on the United States judges and lawyers who are aiding and abetting creeping Bushism.

And Republicans roamed the earth in those days. The Old Testament gives a graphic description of the origins of Republican spin with a story about one of George Bush's ancestors, Uncle Josh Bush, who lived about 3200 years ago.

If George Bush had to get a warrant, would it make any difference? George Bush got permission from Congress to listen in on our conversations without a warrant. He can listen to exactly the same conversations with a warrant. So, what's the difference? Just what protection does a warrant provide us? As it turns out by reading the Fourth Amendment, none at all.

Exploiting ignorance for fun and profit. There's a great hue and cry that the Wall Street Journal will be perverted to reflect Rupert Murdoch's brand of slimy, sleazy, right-wing ideology. Nothing will change. The WSJ is already a perverted, slimy, sleazy, right-wing spin machine, always has been. Murdoch's ideology isn't focused on the joys of being right-wing; it's focused on making money by exploiting ignorance for profit. The same as the Wall Street Journal.
