Latest from McClatchy's Iraqi Staffers: We're Number One...In Corruption

NEW YORK For several weeks, E&P has been spotlighting the postings of McClatchy's Iraqi staffers in its Baghdad bureau, which appear on the Inside Iraq blog. Their names are only partly revealed for security reasons. Here is a Memorial Day post from "correspondent Jenan." * Today we live in Iraqi’s achievements time, I’m talking about the fictional achievements that our government try to persuade us of its existence by using statements, signs, or even using brainwashing to make us believe these achievements. On the first anniversary of forming the government in Iraq, every thing around us reminds of achievements that our elected government has accomplished ...
Cindy Sheehan : "Good Riddance Attention Whore"

I have endured a lot of smear and hatred since Casey was killed and especially since I became the so-called "Face" of the American anti-war movement. Especially since I renounced any tie I have remaining with the Democratic Party, I have been further trashed on such "liberal blogs" as the Democratic Underground. Being called an "attention whore" and being told "good riddance" are some of the more milder rebukes. * CindySheehan's diary :: :: * I have come to some heartbreaking conclusions this Memorial Day Morning. These are not spur of the moment reflections, but things I have been meditating on for about a year now. The conclusions that I have ...
Al Gore Urges Us to Think Differently

Al Gore Urges Us to Think Differently Steven G. Brant I saw Al Gore interviewed by Charlie Rose last night at the 92nd Street Y in NYC. Here's what I took away from the evening (in addition to my autographed copy of his new book): Al Gore knows that We The People are going to have to think differently if we are going to get out of the mess we are in. And he knows that this is a systemic challenge, not just the result of a few bad people who are "doing it to us" from their positions of power in Washington. Al Gore has -- I believe -- transcended the victim mentality that so many people (to the delight of the legal profession, which encourages this kind of thinking) have ...

An Extremely Disturbing Report from Tom007 Concerning the Health Support For The Wounded Vets Of Iraq (MUST READ)

Just held a graduation party for my valedictoran daughter. One of the attendents was Debbie, the consummate medical professional. Though not a doctor, she is really one, as she is extreamly bright and highly ranked in her profession, and I know why from knowing her for five years.
I told her about the situation with Adam, my nephew severly injured in Iraq. I told her that the Army says he has second degree burns, a great relief. Yet his mother this morning relays that his arms are quote "simply black".
Debbie grimices as I say this, and says quietly that "simply black" is not a second degree burn.
I know she is right, as she tells me this - I guess I just wanted to think it was not ...

Family Feud: Why agribusiness giants are facing off over corn ethanol
Post Date: 2007-05-26 11:09:33 by innieway
13 Comments
As recently as 2005, a buck fifty could get you a bushel of corn -- about three days' rations for a confined dairy cow. Today, that same bushel would run you nearly $4. That rapid price increase, inspired by a slew of federal policies that encourage transforming corn into ethanol, is rippling through the global food system, jacking up food prices and squeezing low-income people throughout the world. The situation has given rise to a renewed "food vs. fuel" debate. The discussion plays out something like this: You either support cheap corn, and thus a food supply that serves the world's vast poor population, or you support the ethanol boom, whose goal is to "break ...
Colorado Springs Police Blotter

A 19 year old women was walking in the parking lot of the Sports Authority store on N. Academy Blvd. when two vehicles (SUV & car) pulled up beside her. She did not know either of these vehicles. The driver of the SUV ordered her to get into his vehicle and when she did, he drove her to Palmer Park.
There were three H/M in the SUV with her, they spoke in Spanish about using a gun and who would go first. They stopped in one of the parking lots within the park and the driver reached over and grabbed her vagina.
When she fought back, he struck her with his fist. They did not know she spoke Spanish and she knew what was being planned for her, so the first opportunity for escape she took ...

Raylene; I just talked to Sarah an hour or so ago. Adam's hands are simply black. Susan was very upset when she saw him, as you can imagine. One of the trauma nurses told her that they have much worse burns and that he'll be ok. That relieved Susan. Alice Ann is there and I believe Liz is on the way if not in San Antonio already. Please continue to keep us posted. Also, if you can think of anything that can be done to help them, let us know. I keep trying to think of what can be done and just don't know what to do. I'm taking my family to Hope this weekend and we'll visit with Susan's dad. Thanks;

Congroids By Ted Lang Exclusive to http://Rense.com 5-25-7 Robots and androids and cyborgs, oh my! An old TV commercial for a major industrial corporation offered: "If it can be imagined, it can be done!" And if one thinks about that corporate motto, and applies it to the terms offered, it is beginning to appear that their actual realization is now at hand and an undeniable reality. Oh my! It is sad to note, however, that such manmade machines, made specifically to replace or enhance human capabilities, are more often than not the products of extensive intellectual effort on the part of our species' and envisioned as most strategically applicable in our never-ending quest ...

Ron Paul Brought Me Back To GOP

I grew up in the Reagan years, and I was homeschooled back when it was illegal in my state. Yes, I had to hide from the truant officers because the state of Ohio would have arrested my parents for not sending me to public schools to be indoctrinated. I was brought up a card-carrying member of the Christian Right. Well, it worked. As a conservative Christian, I went out and voted Republican each election and helped put the Republicans in Congress under Newt Gingrich's leadership. Clinton safely neutralized, I could go back to sleep. And then sometime in 2002, I woke up. I noticed the Patriot Act and really didn't like it. I realized I couldn't support any government that would ...
Wolfowitz's Tomb

A lead architect of the Iraq war, he believed shock and awe would transform the Middle East. But his policies failed -- along with his tenure at the World Bank. May. 24, 2007 | Paul Wolfowitz's doctrines are a summa of numerous failed political dogmas of the 20th century. His notion of politics was essentially Bolshevik, but less democratic in practice than Lenin's. Wolfowitz had no concept of mass politics. Nor did he have an idea of democratic centralism, the core of Leninism, by which the vanguard led the cells of the party. Wolfowitz believed only in the vanguard. The dutiful student of obscurantist authoritarian philosopher Leo Strauss operated as a solitary intellectual at ...

Bush warns of heavy bloodshed in Iraq Washington, United States 24 May 2007 06:34 United States President George Bush on Thursday warned of heavy fighting and bloodshed to come in the next "critical" weeks and months in Iraq, and told Iran it faces tougher sanctions over its nuclear defiance. In a White House news conference, Bush also said that US forces would pull out of Iraq if asked to do so by the Baghdad government, and called on Iraqi leaders to repay US sacrifices with political progress. "This summer is going to be a critical time for the new strategy," Bush said in the news conference in the White House Rose Garden, carried live on US television networks. ...
BeAChooser's Absence Today
Post Date: 2007-05-24 19:27:50 by Trace21231

As many of you have probably noticed, BeAChooser was absent again for most of the day. He should be back around 5:30 but you can expect him to be a bit testy. I am not sure of the entire story, but apparently he went out for a drink with two people he met at the Jewish Gay Repbublican Convention last night and somehow got a shot glass stuck in his rectum. He had to go to the HMO today at 9:30 to get it out. They were using a large set of forceps on him and he was having a bad time. They got the glass out without breaking it, but he will probably still be in a bad mood when he gets here. So go easy on him.
Ron Paul Rocks Republican Bigwigs

One assumes that Ron Paul knows he is not going to be the next president of the United States - or even the next Republican nominee. Yet the Texas congressman is campaigning hard, aiming particular ire and fire at Rudy Giuliani. Paul is commonly regarded - by those who have heard of him - as more of a Libertarian than a Republican. That is, he believes in minimal regulation at home and minimal intervention abroad. Indeed, Paul took a detour out of the Grand Old Party back in 1988, when he ran on the Libertarian Party ticket for president; he received less than half of 1 percent of the nationwide vote. So it's little wonder, then, that Paul is viewed dimly by top Republicans - the ...

Why Ron Paul's Answer Terrifies "Them"
Post Date: 2007-05-23 20:10:01 by Brian S

In one short answer to a moderator's question in the South Carolina debate in which Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul suggested that U.S. foreign policy motivated the 9/11 terrorists, Paul produced an earthquake that is shaking the Republican establishment. The chairman of the Michigan Republican Party proposed banning Paul from future debates. Besieged by adverse public reaction, however, he quickly backed down. FoxNews commentator John Gibson and columnist Michelle Malkin somehow reached the warped conclusion that Paul was suggesting that U.S. officials had committed the 9/11 attacks. After bloggers pointed out the inherent contradiction between that claim and Paul's ...

My name is Edgar J. Steele. "Leave there. Leave there now. You don't have a lot more time..." Thus went a recent email from an expatriate American correspondent, writing from his new home of many years in Moscow, Russia. I think he is right. I - we, that is - don't have much time left before the final crackdown comes. You know - the ultimate American police state. And, yes, it can get much worse. You have no idea. Thus far, we have been complaining about the procedures, laws and bureaucracies being set into place. Just wait until they start to use them. What's It All About? Come on, it is obvious to even the most comatose couch potato that all this superstructure ...
