In this article, the US Justice Department has released a detailed report of US torture.
It was condoned and encouraged by the highest levels of the US government. In other threads, on other forums where I write, things like the right to intervene in other countries’ affairs are being discussed. Thinking about such things is now […]

While last-gasp Bill is out shamelessly pimping that Hillary is winning the general election, never mind that she has not won the primaries, I am seeing a different side of Obama: more assertive, crisper, issue focused, taking it to McBush. His line that McCain represents a continuation of eight years of the failed policies of the Bush […]

I thought I was dreaming this one up or that I misheard it. But no. Detroit has indeed come up with a way, not to increase fuel efficiency, but to get you to buy the gas-guzzlers they should not have made in the first place: buy a car and they will subsidize your gas purchases […]

Irony is Clorg, which justified its obamashanking as necessary vetting (because if Obama couldn’t take what CLINTON INC threw, how could the big baby survive what the pigs had in store), now basing Clorg’s campaign’s justification as WAAH! those nasty obamabots!
Listenrubes, I’ll give whomever is inaugurated this coming January six-hundred whole seconds to materially improve […]

It serves the Pugs right. Now they have their Ralph Nader, except more. Bob Barr, the former floor manager for Bill Clinton’s impeachment, now running on the Libertarian ticket, should make for an interesting side debate. He has a way about him…
Any predictions out there about the damage this Georgia cracker can cause?

with absolute certainty in 2000, that we were going to face an oil shortage-driven holocaust sometime in the next 20-25 years? What if you knew with absolute certainty that Peak Oil was real, irreversible and that we missed the window for an orderly energy transformation that was opened during the Arab oil embargo? […]

So now we know. Hillary Clinton is hoping somebody pops Obama, invoking the Robert Kennedy assassination as a reason for her to stay in the race. I’m going to check to see if the vote for Vice President is separate from the vote for President in the State of New Jersey. If so, I will vote for someone […]

In a previous writing, I had described how Muqtada al-Sadr has become the most powerful Shia. Now the Ayatollah al-Sistani is shifting his support to Al-Sadr.
A little history. Other than Muqtada, the Ayatollah al-Sistani is the most powerful single figure in Iraq. With a word, he forced Bremer to cave in and permit free elections […]

I hasten to add, just because I admire the tenacious rubiness of Clorg dead-enders doesn’t mean I’ve lost contempt for the mccauliffism of CLINTON INC.
Clorg’s terms for surrender surely include places for mccauliffisters in an Obama regime, and her re-escalation of rhetoric after a week of ratcheting it down is the most positive sign yet […]

“I felt something stirring in American society. It was a sense among the people of the country–Republicans and Democrats alike–that something was missing from their lives, something crucial. I was trying to position the Republican Party to take advantage of it. But I wasn’t exactly sure what ‘it’ was. My illness helped me to see […]
