Conservative radio talk show host Michael Savage sued an Islamic civil rights group on Monday for copyright infringement over the organization's use of a 4-minute segment of his show in which he called the Quran a "book of hate." Savage said the Washington, D.C.-based Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR, violated his rights by wrongfully using the segment of his Oct. 29 "The Savage Nation" show in a letter-writing campaign directed against talk radio advertisers. In the broadcast, Savage called the Muslim holy book "a throwback document" and a "book of hate." "What kind of religion is this? What kind of world are you living in ...
Gun-Shy America Is Losing The Best Chance To Stop Iran

John Bolton, the hawkish former US ambassador to the UN, says Tehran’s nuclear threat is growing and it will have to be halted by force A grippingly topical nightmare unfolded in a television drama last week. Iran had secretly built a nuclear bomb, transforming the balance of power in the Middle East. All the United States could do was cut a deal and hope for the best as Tehran demanded a seat on the security council of the United Nations. John Bolton snorts with derision at the scenario. But the only bit that he finds remotely funny is the prospect of Iran getting a seat on the security council; to him, long-time hawk and former American ambassador to the UN, the rest is a very real ...

Richard Perle Grooming Future Ahmad Chalabis For Syria And Iran
Post Date: 2007-11-29 19:51:05 by Brian S
0 Comments
In an op-ed in the Los Angeles Times, Alan Weisman — the author of a biography on Richard Perle — writes that the neoconservative architect of the Iraq war “is again propping up regime-toppling Mideast dissidents who lack credibility.” Prior to the Iraq war, “Perle used his Pentagon position to lobby both for war and for turning postwar power in Iraq over to Ahmad Chalabi, the long-time Iraqi exile.” Now he’s at it again, lending his political assistance to exiled regime change advocates from Syria and Iran. With Perle’s help, Farid Ghadry, an exiled Syrian dissident who heads up the Syrian Reform Party, “hopes to be the man in charge one day in ...

Giuliani's Mistress Used N.Y. Police as Taxi Service November 29, 2007 3:18 PM Richard Esposito Reports: Well before it was publicly known he was seeing her, then-married New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani provided a police driver and city car for his mistress Judith Nathan, former senior city officials tell the Blotter on ABCNews.com. "She used the PD as her personal taxi service," said one former city official who worked for Giuliani. New York papers reported in 2000 that the city had provided a security detail for Nathan, who became Giuliani's third wife after his divorce from Donna Hanover, who also had her own police security detail at the same time. The former city ...

The documents, obtained by Politico ...

Just like most of us, Condi learns about major international news from the t.v. She is clueless. by Joe Sudbay (DC) · 11/28/2007 08:40:00 AM ET Okay, I'll admit it. I often get my news from reading the crawl on the t.v. while I'm working out. But, I'm not the Secretary of State during major international crises, including a war I helped start. But, in fact, your Secretary of State also gets news about major world developments from the t.v. while she's working out. And, bad news does not interfere with her exercise regimen. Just in case anyone still wonders why U.S. foreign policy is such a disaster, this passage in Maureen Dowd's column is illustrative: In 20 ...
Dick Cheney's Death Watch

I think it's okay to have a topic like this given that the media has so happily reported on the Castro death watch parties in Miami. Anyways, I am don't have the latest so, if anyone can provide updates on this topic, they should be all very interesting. Just curious. If Cheney dies, who gets to be the VP? Can Bush appoint anyone he wishes? Like... Condi maybe?
Taunts Prompt Coulter To Conceal Address

Monday, November 26, 2007 PALM BEACH — Conservative columnist Ann Coulter is nationally notorious for vitriolic broadsides, but she has been unnerved by invective she received at her Palm Beach home. So much so that she got the county property appraiser to remove her name from public records identifying where she lives. In doing so, she won an exemption from public disclosure of her address, allowed by law for victims of stalkers or harassment. Coulter, 45, has called Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards a homosexual slur and said she wished he would be killed by terrorists. She once said that President Clinton "could be a lunatic" and wrote of a group of widows ...

Rudy: Yes, I Voted For McGovern, But I Actually Preferred Nixon By Greg Sargent - November 23, 2007, 9:25AM As he seeks to court GOP primary voters, one potential sticking point has been his opposition to the Vietnam War in the early 1970s and his vote for Dem George McGovern in 1972. But Rudy has now concocted a new explanation for that vote: He didn't mean it. Or so he says in a new interview with The Weekly Standard: "I had traditionally been a Democrat," Giuliani told me in a recent interview in Las Vegas. "It was almost like a reflex mode. I actually remember saying to myself, 'If I was a person really deciding who should be president right now, I'd ...
John Bolton On Hardball: “I’m Not A Neoconservative”

Play (1485) On Wednesday’s Hardball Chris Matthews talked with right wing warmonger and former U.N. Ambassador, John Bolton, and Middle East expert, Jo-Anne Hart, about a possible U.S. invasion of Iran. Matthews is normally all over the place, but in this segment he seemed to be focused and somewhat grounded in reality. Bolton blathers on about the need to attack Iran before they achieve nuclear capability, even going so far as to say he didn’t think the citizens of Iran would be angry at the U.S. if we started dropping bombs inside their country — for which Matthews, thankfully, calls him out. When Matthews calls him a Neoconservative, Bolton points his finger at him and ...
AEI: The American Dictatorship Institute

In response to Ron Paul’s phenomenal fundraising successes and his widespread, national popularity, the neocon establishment has commenced a smear campaign. One such smear artist is John C. Fortier, a "research fellow" at what Lew Rockwell has called the Supreme Soviet of Neoconservatism – the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). Writing on the AEI website, Fortier complained that Congressman Paul "sometimes displays a sinister conspiratorial aspect, implying that those who disagree with him are the vanguard of dictatorial government." The Congressman and his supporters, says Fortier, think they "are there to stop such a dictatorship." Fortier is ...

Rudy Giuliani jets to campaign stops using casino kingpin's plane By DAVID SALTONSTALL DAILY NEWS SENIOR CORRESPONDENT Sunday, November 18th 2007, 5:42 PM Rudy Giuliani is jetting around the country wooing Bible-thumping conservatives, but his plane is often provided by a king of Sin City. The Republican presidential hopeful anted up more than $122,000 last summer alone for jets traceable to casino kingpin Sheldon Adelson, whose Las Vegas Sands empire has made him the third-richest American, a Daily News review of campaign records shows. Last quarter, The Sands' innocuously named Interface Operations LLC was the top provider of corporate jets to the frequently flying Giuliani, ...

Fox host 'for Tasing anyone in Code Pink' after Hillary heckled11/19/2007 @ 8:27 am Filed by David Edwards and Nick Juliano A Fox News morning host has a novel idea to handle those pesky Code Pink protesters who disrupt political events and Congressional hearings: 50,000 volts of electricity. Brian Kilmead shared his ever-so-evolved views on crowd control Monday morning in a Fox & Friends discussion of a Code Pink-disrupted Hillary Clinton speech. His answer to annoying anti-war types? Tasers or Billy clubs. “They should Tase this guy,” Kilmead says. “At one point with security so high and tensions on edge, don’t you think they’re going to get at ...

This was done also to eliminate Ron Paul from the public view of lurkers and visitors to Liberty Post. The Jim Robinson style of the “night of the long knives” has struck deep by ...
Indictment Suggests White House Discussed Kerik Mob Ties before He Withdrew Nomination

Finally, evidence suggesting that the White House knew that Bernie Kerik had much more than a nanny problem. It took only a week for President Bush's nomination of Kerik to replace Tom Ridge as secretary of the Department of Homeland Security to fall apart. And its abruptness -- and the reason given -- has always been cause for suspicion. On December 2, 2004, President Bush announced that his pick to replace Tom Ridge as secretary of the Department of Homeland Security was Bernard Kerik. On December 10th, a Friday, at 8:30 p.m., Kerik suddenly withdrew his nomination, explaining in a statement that he'd discovered that his former housekeeper and nanny might not be a legal ...

Exactly five years ago to the month, the U.S. Senate passed a resolution authorizing the Bush Administration to invade Iraq. Among the senators, only a handful, including Dennis Kucinich, didn't vote for the 2002 resolution and several Democratic senators who voted for that resolution and who are currently presidential contenders for the 2008 election have expressed regrets; the only candidate who has not done so is Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, amazingly the current Democratic front-runner.Similar to the Iraq war resolution, on September 26, the Senate voted 76-22 for the Jon Kyl and Joseph Lieberman-amended resolution to place the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, or ...

Tancredo Takes Demagoguery To A Whole New Level

In 2004, it was fairly common for Bush and Cheney to tell voters that voting for John Kerry might put their lives at risk. The VP once famously said a Democratic president would mean we’d be “hit again,” just like on 9/11. But leave it to Tom Tancredo to run an ad dramatizing an actual terrorist attack in a campaign commercial — complete with a loud explosion at the end — implicitly telling voters that unless they vote for him, immigrants might kill their family. That this commercial might actually appear on Iowa television screens is perhaps the most twisted news of the presidential campaign thus far. “Tancredo: Before It’s Too Late” — ...

Report: 'Hidden cost' of wars push it to $1.6 trillion by Mark Silva The "hidden costs'' of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are spelled out in a report that the Joint Economic Committee of Congress is releasing at the Capitol this morning. With costs already known, by this accounting, the toll reaches $1.6 trillion. The congressional report attempts to place a price tag on the wars by including interest on the debt incurred by war spending, the cost of long-term care for the war-wounded and even disruptions in the world oil market. The total is double the $800 billion which the administration actually has requested for the wars in supplemental spending bills, the ...
Fox News Host 'Let Down' By Implausibility Of Suitcase Nukes

After appearing in numerous film and TV programs and even creeping its way into American political discourse, the suitcase nuke, a nuclear bomb small enough to be easily hidden, is unlikely to exist, according to experts. The revelation left the anchors of the Fox News program Fox & Friends more than a little disappointed. "You mean '24' isn't true," Co-host Page Kelly inquired, referring to Fox's national security-themed prime time hit, starring Kiefer Sutherland as CIA agent Jack Bauer. "'24's my favorite show." "It is a little bit of a let down," agreed Greg Kelly. Others likely to be let down by this most-recent reality check on ...
Suitcase Nukes Said Unlikely to Exist

Members of Congress have warned about the dangers of suitcase nuclear weapons. Hollywood has made television shows and movies about them. Even the Federal Emergency Management Agency has alerted Americans to a threat — information the White House includes on its Web site. But government experts and intelligence officials say such a threat gets vastly more attention than it deserves. These officials said a true suitcase nuke would be highly complex to produce, require significant upkeep and cost a small fortune. Counterproliferation authorities do not completely rule out the possibility that these portable devices once existed. But they do not think the threat remains. "The ...
