Waitin' on Tuesday..

On Tuesday 1/20/09 Barack saddles up and George gets dehorsed.
Hard to believe we had to put up with Dumbya and his posse of criminal cronies for EIGHT YEARS!
Hats off and thanks to inept representation.

“Fundamentally dishonest and woefully incompetent” kinda sums it up...

**UPDATE 01/20/09**
Ok, today is a new day and the Bush/Cheney crime family has left the building.
Obama is in the house!
It is time for all the whistle blowers to "Come on Down". Let's record some statements, followed by investigations and prosecutions!
C'mon, times a waistin'!
There has to be a bunch of people waiting to come forward and testify about broken rules, broken trust and broken laws. People in the EPA, DoJ, FBI & CIA (scratching the surface) must have stories to tell after years watching this cabal unfold like a bad dream.
Anybody got emails to share?
Who wants to go first?

**UPDATE 01/24/09**
Here is something we already knew but it's nice to have it confirmed and only 24 hours after the Bush/Cheney crime family vacated the White House..
Hope there will be lots more to follow..

"On Jan. 21, former U.S. intelligence official Russell Tice appeared on MSNBC's "Countdown with Keith Olbermann" and broke a sobering bit of news that, sandwiched between Obama's inauguration and sweeping executive orders, went largely ignored by the media: Under the Bush administration's notorious warrantless spying program, not only did the NSA eavesdrop on millions of Americans, it turns out it specifically targeted "U.S. news organizations, reporters and journalists."

Israel and the USA.... Partners in War Crimes

Last week the House and the Senate voted to continue backing Israel's assault on Palestine.
Again the majority in these governing bodies continue to show their complete disregard for the rule of law. They have funded the same offenses in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The members of the Senate that voted, voted unanimous support for Israel.
Congress had five members who stood strong against all "the tools that serve AIPAC" and they should be applauded.
Dennis Kucinich, Ron Paul, Gwen Moore, Nick Rahall & Maxine Waters.
There were 22 DINO's that voted "Present", which pretty much means they didn't have the balls to vote NO and there were 16 that did not vote, for whatever reason.

Just so you know, the biggest "tool" in the Senate to sponsor the bill, Harry Reid. And the biggest "tool" in the Congress to sponsor the bill, Nancy Pelosi.
Seriously Reid and Pelosi (along with a bunch of others) need to go ahead and secure their new lobbyist job and be shown the revolving door out!
We don't need their politics.
This kind of legislation is a waste of time in light of all the problems and concerns we face today but on another level reveals the complete lack of a moral compass in certain members of these governing bodies.

The US has been complicit in enforcing the rule of law.
Israel receives approximately $3 billion in Military Aid from the US.
IE.. F-16s, Apache helicopters, TOW missiles and bunker busters.
The Arms Export Control Act states, Weapons from the US to be used for "internal security" and "self defense" with in its own borders.
"Bunker busters"(sometimes called mini-nukes) are in violation of international law(NNPT) because they contain depleted uranium which contaminates the area with radiation. The US used them in Iraq and sold them to Israel who is now using them in Palestine.

Listen to another voice of reason... Please..

What is wrong with Israel & Palestine?

The 17th day of Israel's assault on Gaza and the violence continues as the death toll exceeds 900.
"On Sunday, Cairo upped the pressure on Israel by summoning its ambassador to demand that the Jewish state comply with last week's UN Security Council resolution and open humanitarian corridors to relieve the besieged territory."

The UN has condemned the reckless disregard for civilian casualties.
Israel has bombed two schools.
The UN has also condemned the occupation of Palestine's land and is considered "the root cause of Palestine's aggression."
The Human Rights Watch has also reported Israel's use of white phosphorus bombs.

I have to wonder who thought this small sliver of land would be a good place to position mortal enemies?

Why the division of the West Bank and Gaza with Israel around the perimeter?

The geography only seems to enable Israel's control through check points and continued encroachment onto Palestinian soil. It seems more like the design of a prison camp with all the walls, fences and check points.
In Israel's defense this "prison camp" is strategically a fantastic place to round up and starve or shoot your enemies.

This conflict isn't really about religion any more, is it?
I used to think this was a war between Jews and Muslims or Jews and Arabs.

What is wrong with a religious belief that makes people think it is OK to sacrifice woman and children in an act of war?
Early into this conflict people around the world were protesting civilian casualties but no one is listening.

**UPDATE**
Rational thought and reasonable thinking from a Politician?
You betcha... Here's Dennis..

and another thing..
Who and what is Hamas?
