Say It Ant So George

See Original Story

According to the Washington Post, While television sets worldwide showed images of New Orleans residents begging to be rescued from rooftops as floodwaters rose, U.S. officials turned down countless offers of allied troops and search-and-rescue teams. The most common responses: "sent letter of thanks" and "will keep offer on hand," the new documents show.


Overall, the United States declined 54 of 77 recorded aid offers from three of its staunchest allies: Canada, Britain and Israel, according to a 40-page State Department table of the offers that had been received as of January 2006.


You've just got to read this story to believe it...In one exchange, State Department officials anguished over whether to tell Italy that its shipments of medicine, gauze and other medical supplies spoiled in the elements for weeks after Katrina's landfall on Aug. 29, 2005, and were destroyed. "Tell them we blew it," one disgusted official wrote. But she hedged: "The flip side is just to dispose of it and not come clean. I could be persuaded."

Now I ask, how much lower can these people go... what say you?

What's your Opinion

I watched a video called Unarmed Civilians and all I had was questions about what went on before the shooting started and who were the people in the two cars that passed by and how were they involved?

I next went to a site where a true Republican gave his honest opinion about this war and his hero George Bush... below is my question and his comment:

What is your opinion of these "Unarmed Civilians"

"I do not see the unarmed civilians you are speaking of and besides why in hell are you looking for reasons to attack our soldiers. I would hope to hell you aren't an American, with this outrageous attack on our soldiers in combat. You are an embarrassment to our great country attacking our soldiers by even questioning their actions when you don't possibly know all the details behind this video."




Was the Republican who made the above statement correct... did I really ask the wrong question or have I attacked our soldiers?

I cant see where I am questioning their actions by asking a question... am I wrong?

What say you?

Above His Party

I know most bloggers have seen this video and there is some who want watch it for whatever reasons. Maybe the truth is to hard to bear or just maybe when a party or a man within a particular party is considered their God, it's just to hard to face the truth or see it.

Just remember no one man, group of men or party should be above the country.

Why Cant We See The Truth

Before she was captured by the Iraqis, Jessica Lynch "fought fiercely and shot several enemy soldiers...firing her weapon until she ran out of ammunition" According to the Post account, which was based on anonymous sources citing battlefield reports, Lynch kept firing "even after she sustained multiple gunshot wounds." By her own account, none of that happened. She never fired her weapon and was knocked unconscious when her vehicle crashed, waking up hours later in an Iraqi hospital.

America, you tried to impeach former President Clinton for lying about sex and yet you continually allow President Bush to lie to you about the war in Iraq.

Just when will you began to realize that men and women are dying everyday in this war. Maybe you don't care because your son, daughter, father or mother are not asked to make a sacrifice.

Maybe it's because this President unlike our former, is a Republican and we know that in America we are all about our party... they can do no wrong in our eyes.

Jessica Lynch tell's us about the lies and still we do nothing... why?

Earth Day and Global Warming

Sunday was Earth Day and almost all politicians had their view on how to slow down global warming.

I still cant understand what Karl Rove was ranting when he said to Laurie David and Sheryl Crow that China was not doing enough thus neither should we.

The (IPCC) has issued its report on global warming Download SUMMARY FOR POLICYMAKERS.

Since the theory is that human actions are causing the planet to heat to this catastrophic degree, what then can we do to reverse it?

Shooter Had To Be A Liberal

According to Rush Limbaugh the perpetrator of the Virginia Tech shootings "had to be a liberal,"

He even had the nerve to say Democrats are the people sponsoring lies and distortion for the purposes of dividing this country and creating hatred.

What is wrong with the people in this country, have we lost all sense and compassion?

Republicans Hailed Medicare Part D negotiation Bill Vote A Victory For Seniors

Senate Republicans blocked the Medicare Part D negotiation bill that would allow the government to negotiate drug prices for the Medicare prescription drug benefit and they called it a victory for the Seniors.

The bill would have allowed the Secretary of Health and Human Services to make deals with the pharmaceutical industry.

Our Congress had already passed a stronger version, which would have made negotiations mandatory.

President Bush said that he would veto either version of the bill if they came to him.

Just who is this a victory for and why?

Why I Started To Share My Thoughts

I was once content with writing programs, surfing the net and reading a few blogs. I notice while reading blogs, more than 90 percent were conservatives, giving their opinion and being mean spirit about any thing and any one that did not agree with them or have the same view that they had.

When I first started to blog, I tried to be somewhat in the middle and just let others give their opinion on what I talked about. The problem with doing that, brought on the same thing that I had been reading, when I just went to other blogs.

Mostly conservatives, giving opinions that I didn't agree with and I wondered, where in the world are the Democrats and the Independants?

Since I found very few people to stand up to some of the junk that some conservatives were saying. I just decided to just give my own opinion on how I felt about things and low and behold, all I hear, in a nasty way are conservatives, saying all kind of things to me.

Let me just say this, BRING IT ON! I'm an ex-Marine and I know that I can deal with the things that they have to say.

I have a comment that I would like to share with you; "Your site is an utter insult to Christians everywhere. To not support Bush is borderline heresy. Jesus was not pro-gay and pro-abortion! Read the Bible!!"


Well sir I ask you, how can my site be an insult to Christians everywhere just because I don't support Bush?

As for pro gay, Sir let me just say this. I can't judge a man because he choose to be gay or he is gay for what ever reason. His life style is not my business. If I have a friend and he is gay, then he is my friend, not gay friend, but friend. I'm not going to let you choose for me whom I get to like or dislike, that's up to me and Sir, I have no reason to dislike gays, you or anyone.

On pro-abortion, you have no way to know how I feel about abortion, but let me tell you any way. I can't feel what a woman feels in her body and I have no right to choose for her if she should or should not have a child. Sir, that's her business, not mines or yours. I'm calling you Sir because I've been to your site and I know that you are a man.

I was going to put the information that I'm going to talk about now, on my other site Let's Talk About It, but I feel that it should be said here.

In 1893 Julia Ward Howe, brought up Religion and what that word means to us, as a people. "Religion is the pursuit of the devine in the human, the sacrifice of everything to duty for the sake of God and of humanity and of our own individual dignity. Nothing is religion which puts one individual absolutely above others, and surely nothing is religion that puts one sex above another. Religion is primarily our relation to the Supreme, to God himself. It is for him to judge; it is for him to say where we belong, who is highest and who is not; of that we know nothing. And any religion which will sacrifice a certain set of human beings for the enjoyment or aggrandizement or advantage of another is no religion. Any religion which sacrifice women to the brutality of men is no religion."

Now with that said, Let's Talk!

Bush Filling Up Valhalla

It would seem our President implemented the surge to protect the new 104 acres embassy being built in Iraq.

The Valhalla, should be full very soon, because a proposal to extend the tour of duty for every active duty soldier in Iraq by three (3), months is waiting for approval.

The fortress-like compound rising beside the Tigris River in Bagdad will be the largest of its kind in the world, the size of Vatican City, with the population of a small town.

We are not intending to leave Iraq, not when BP and Shell in Britain, and Exxon and Chevron in the US, will be signing deals of up to 30 years to extract Iraq’s oil and live in the new embassy that is being built to house them.

There's no way this President will agree to bring our soldiers home anytime soon, they are needed to insure the safety and protection of the new embassy and oil that will be flowing out of Iraq.

The surge will probably go on through all of this year and into 08, with no let up on the all volunteer service.

This President shows a lot of nepotism to oil companies and big business, at the expense of our soldiers. This move is very pithy and I'm sure that our Congress and Senate knows about it.

There's a law called the hydrocarbon law and if passed, the law will make available to Exxon/Mobil, Chevron/Texaco, BP/Amoco, and Royal Dutch/Shell about 4/5’s of the stupendous petroleum reserves in Iraq.

So, Valhalla had better make room, because we are not coming out of Iraq any time soon... look for the veto.

What say you?

Riddle Me this, You Conservative Bloggers

Vice President Cheney always bad mouth anyone who talks against the war in Iraq... he's always making the talking points in favor of this President .

I guess you would say, that's what a Vice President is suppose to do.

Now let me ask you this; How can this Vice President say that we are sending the troops the wrong message, when we speak out against the war in Iraq or if we speak out against this President?

Riddle me this--- what kind of message is this Vice President sending the troops in Iraq and at Walter Reed, when he never even bothered to make a trip there to visit our wounded?

Can you name or show me any evidence, where this Vice President is shown at Walter Reed with our wounded?

What say you?

The White House And Conservative News Show Try To Smear Pelosi's Trip

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is being smeared by The White House for her impending visit to Damascus. Bill Kristol repeated the attack on Fox news.

The White House accused Sen. Pelosi of failing to heed the administration's admonitions against traveling to Damascus.

Now we find out that three Republicans, were in Syria yesterday and not a word from the White House or Kristol.

Sunday, Reps. Frank Wolf, Joe Pitts and Robert Aderholt met with Syrian President Bashar Assad in Damascus... These men are Republicans, so what's the problem here America?

Conservatives are so quick to say bad things about MSM, but constantly follow this White House of lies and the conservative talking points.

Was The President Sincere?

Was President Bush sincere when he said this; "It is not right to have someone volunteer to wear our uniform and not get the best possible care. I apologize for what they went through, and we're going to fix the problem." This ws said during his visit at Walter Reed.

Democratic Senator Patty Murray, says veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan have been lost in the system.

"We are now starting the fifth year of this war. And to date, this president has not planned and supported funding to make sure that those men and women, whether it is traumatic brain injury, whether they've lost a limb, whether it's post-traumatic-stress syndrome, or whether it's just coming home and being able to find another job, have been paid attention to," she said.

What say you America... does this President's apology sound sincere?

Stop To Start: GOP Rules Objection!

"we've just received word that the Republicans have objected under the Senate rules to this meeting continuing. I think that's unfortunate, but I will follow the rules of the Senate... The Republicans are the ones who don't want to have the hearings, the Republicans have the right under the rules to do that.... we will stand in recess until the Senate recesses."

During todays hearing, the Republican senators objected that the hearing violated Senate rules. You know the one that states; hearings are supposed to end by 2pm, unless the Senators go behind closed doors and agree to waive the rule.

Senator Leahy said, the hearings would not be stopped, and he'd hold them on nights and weekends if he needed to.

What in the world is going on with the GOP... are they still under King George's spell?

Settle Down Mr. President, There's A New Sheriff In Town!

Nancy Pelosi to the President, "Calm down with the threats," she said. "There's a new Congress in town. We accept your constitutional role. We want you to accept ours."

This is not a monarchy, Mr. President, you have less than two (2), years to run this country into the ground.

Any time, a country has voted for change in it's direction to a war and the way in which this country is ran... it's time for you, the President to listen.

You can no longer dictate to this Congress and the American People. What we have here George, is a constitutional form of government.

Your branch of office is just one of the three branches that we have in America. Oh and all three (3), branchs are equal.

No, No, No King George, you are not over the other two... your word or pen, is not the only one that makes law.

Oh and by the way Mr. President, our Congress are the one's that has the right to declare war. They gave up that power to you, because of the fear and lies you and your Administration fed us.

The Constitution of the United States, Article II: Section 4.
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Just stop it with the blame game, you said "If Congress fails to pass a bill to fund our troops on the front lines, the American people will know who to hold responsible."

Wouldn't that be you King George... you're the one talking about a veto of the bill to fund the Troops because of a mandatory withdrawal deadline for nearly all combat troops on Sept. 1, 2008.

This is not your Republican House Mr. President, there's a new Sheriff in town, so get use to it.

You Tell Me!

I dont like to call people stupid or idiot, so I'll just give you two (2), videos from YOU TUBE and you tell me....

BEFORE A BUSH SPEECH, THIS HAPPENS.



IS BUSH AN IDIOT?

Well, you tell me!

HE'S NOT THE DECIDER FOR THE UNITED STATES SENATE

"What we're told we can get is nothing, nothing, nothing," said Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., the Judiciary chairman. "I know he's the decider for the White House _ he's not the decider for the United States Senate."

So be it... the fight has begun, between the executive and legislative branches. Even though we haven't heard from Karl Rove, the White House has stated that he and his deputies can talk to lawmakers in private as the best deal Democrats are going to get.


Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, vowed he would not step aside and promised to cooperate with Congress in the inquiry. He also stated, "I'm not going to resign, no U.S. Attorney was fired for improper reasons."

As Talks go on behind the scenes, the White House and majority Democrats engaged in strategic posturing before the cameras. King George and his Court stands firm, not knowing that the new Sheriff (Democrat), in town is standing firm, just willing to let this King know, that when all the dust settles, not all the Kings Court including his Neocon friends, will be able to put King George back together again.

Even the comedians are getting in on the fun. Watch a clip of the Daily Show for laughs.

HONORABLE PUBLIC SERVANTS

"We will not go along with a partisan fishing expedition aimed at honorable public servants. ... I have proposed a reasonable way to avoid an impasse."

These are the words of President Bush... has this man lost his mind?

The President's proposed reasonable way to avoid an impasse, is to have his public servants... according to Fielding, "conduct interviews that are private and conducted without the need for an oath, transcript, subsequent testimony or the subsequent issuance of subpoenas," this was in a letter to the Senate and House Judiciary committees and their ranking Republicans today.

This President needs to look up Contempt of Congress... at this point a partisan fishing expedition is not what this Congress is about.

This Congress wants answers ... while this President makes threats and thinks this Congress is still controlled by his once loyal Republican party.

There's a new sheriff in town King George and he's called Democrat!

A PATTERN OF BEHAVIOR

original story

A US grand jury in Guam opened an investigation of controversial lobbyist Jack Abramoff more than two years ago, but President Bush removed the supervising federal prosecutor, and the probe ended soon after.

In Guam, a US territory in the Pacific, investigators were looking into Abramoff's secret arrangement with Superior Court officials to lobby against a court reform bill then pending in Congress. The legislation, since approved, gave the Guam Supreme Court authority over the Superior Court.


US Attorney Frederick A. Black was demoted by non other than President Bush.

Today in a letter to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Reps. George Miller (D-CA) and Nick Rahall (D-WV) urge Congress to investigate "the potential political manipulation by Jack Abramoff and his allies in Congress and the Administration" in the Black case.

Now I ask you, what else is needed to show that our country has been run by a President, his Administration and a Republican House and Senate that have done some nasty deeds, that may or may not be criminal.

It's just a shame that the conservative blogs are now throwing up former President's Carter and Clinton and what they did in the past.

What we have here are conservatives saying just what the talking heads put out there as talking points and as usual, they pick up on it and run.

What we have here is a failure of leadership... leadership that's suppose to run this country for the good of the people.

What we have here, is a pattern of behavior, where this President and his Administration have done some really nasty things, maybe not criminal but you know what they say... things that are done in the dark, will come out in the light and the light is shining all over this Republican party.

MAYBE A DRAFT IS IN ORDER

At Fort Benning, soldiers who were classified as medically unfit to fight are now being sent to war. Is this an isolated incident or a trend?

What in the world is going on with our military?

According to Salon.com, As the military scrambles to pour more soldiers into Iraq, a unit of the Army's 3rd Infantry Division at Fort Benning, Ga., is deploying troops with serious injuries and other medical problems, including GIs who doctors have said are medically unfit for battle. Some are too injured to wear their body armor, according to medical records.

This is the 3rd time that the 3rd Brigade will be leaving for Iraq. "In fact, some of the troops with medical conditions interviewed by Salon last week are already gone. Others are slated to fly out within a week, but are fighting against their chain of command, holding out hope that because of their ills they will ultimately not be forced to go."


Conservatives always talk about this being and all volunteer Service, in fact they want us to stay there until the job is done. Well my conservative friends, why dont you ask some of the service members if they really want to be there simply because they are all volunteers.

Then to show that this all volunteer Service is not enough to cover both wars on terror, we have called up the Reserves and still they are not enough for this new surge.

When you send injured Service members back into combat... it's time for some other options.

I know, get some of those college students that are for this war and with this President and let them go over to Iraq and help out... I mean, since they are so with this President and this war.

Maybe we should call on some of the most conservative war mongers to enlist their sons and daughters to this surge and war, since we no longer have enough troops to fight anymore.

What do you say...you talk the talk, but can you conservatives walk the walk?
