Monday down

I woke up this morning with a catch in my throat. Or maybe it was my cat, Tender Kitty, sitting on my face that made me think of George Bush’s ass. What does George Tenet, Condi Rice and Debroah Jeane Palfrey have in common? They’re in the whore business. Listening to Tenet on the Today show this morning made me want to blow chunks. The guy is trying to clean up what the world thinks of him and his little “Slam Dunk” quote that carried the US to war in Iraq. George T. (not to be confused with his self-described “kindred spirit” George B) has bloody hands – the words of another ex-CIA official – in leading this country to such a horrible state it is today. George T. lies like a rug. He’s just trying to clean is ass from all the shit George B has pumped out.
Condi then covered all the Sunday morning talk shows trying to cover George B’s ass. All she did was act like a scared, panic-striken, confused, cover-all-the-bases babbling head. Everyone knows know – everyone that has any kind of sense – that George B has dumped the entire world into a flaming, in-operative hell hole. Ironic and very sad: The first black person to be in such a position and she’s a moron!
And Ms Palfrey? She is, of course, the every-increasing public domain of the “DC Madam,” who first on her list of clients was Randall Tobias, head of the US International Agency for Development, which covers AIDs and other tricky-dicky items across the globe. Tobias, of course, resigned last week after Palfrey “outed” him. And in something more ironic than one could imagine, Tobais wanted everyone in his department sign a sexual wavier last year, living up to the hype!
Tender Kitty does not have George B’s ass!
‘Slam dunk’ dupe part deux

It looks like George Tenet, the former CIA director whose intel proved to be wrong in the run-up to the Iraqi war, will have a big say in the coming weeks about the Bush Black House and the lies and twisted truths about the whole freaking mess.
Now it’s revealed today that Tenet’s CIA actually may have given Bush and company, i.e., Dick Chaney, Don Rumsfield, etc., etc., the real shit, at least a perspective of the real shit.
‘Slam dunk’ dupe

Driving the US into the Iraqi war was the now-known completly false claims Saddam Hussein was a horrible threat to the entire planet. In those heady days in the run-up to the war, the visions of mushroom clouds and Saddam marching hand-in-hand with Osama Bin Laden was played over and over and over. Dick Cheney, with that asshole-like, holier-than-thou, and why should you doubt look on his tender lips, kept the words flowing on the awful consequences of not getting rid of Saddam.
Enough to make a maggot gag.
And so on Thursday, the New York Times and from transcripts supplied off of CBS’ 60 Minutes, from a show to be aired this Sunday, former CIA Director George Tenet chewed ass. He claims, in his new book to be released Monday, At The Center Of The Storm, that the now-famous “slam dunk” quote was totally out of context. Just like a hundred dozen situations out of the Bush Black House, there were lies, pretended truths and just made up shit.
Tenet claims there never any “significant discussion” on the war. Of course, former intel chief at the Black House, Richard Clarke says Bush button-holed him on Sept. 12, 2001, and wanted to know if there was any connection to Iraq and the World Trade Center. Bush’s Black House was after Saddam from the very beginning.
Bush Black House spokesman, in this case Counselor Dan Bartlett retorted Friday that Tenet was not aware of the vast amount of pre-war debate going on, which left Bush with no other option but to “shock and awe” Iraq into a horrible stone age.
The plot gets thicker. On Friday, Rep. Henry Waxman has invited Tenet to appear before the House Committee on Oversight amd Government Reform to discuss the overall run-up to the war and whether there were any lying going on. Duh!
In a similar vein, Secretary of State Condolezza Rice will not honor a subpoeana issued by Waxman’s committee investigating the pre-war intel. Rice stated Thursday she will not testify in Congress over the whole Niger, false assertions that Iraq was trying to get nuclear fuel from Africa bullshit. Uncle Tom’s Condolezza Rice will answer questions in writing, not in person.
Condo needs a good slam dunk.

Not only has the horrific Iraq war turned into some kind of long-tentacled Orwellian nightmare, now comes word of another Army scandal, right on the heels of the Pat Tillman tale, and appears to be plotted by screenwriters of a cheesy, nasty little action movie.
According to the NBC News Website, the U.S Army has arrested Lt. Col. William H. Steele, commander of the huge military prison in Baghdad tagged with a very-much Dr. Strangelove-like name of Camp Cropper, on a list of charges, including letting an insurgent use a cell phone, getting into a “thing” with a female Iraqi interpreter and possession of pornography.
“Wild Bill” Steele has take this entire exercise in horror to even lower depths, if that were possible. Possession of pornography is a new one, albeit, it does bring into mind the prison pix – attack dogs, naked guys and husky dikes – but it seems Camp Cropper was getting a bit like the old “F Troop” TV series, but a lot more nasty, violent, cruel, ironic and just plain mean-spirited. ‘Wild Bill’ had a thing, and according to the Army, had been having a thing for more than 18 months. One big pile of nasty videos that.
Another day, another tale.

Dick Cheney had five deferments during Vietnam. And he claims those who oppose the Iraq mess “don’t have the stomach” for the war on terror. Easy life, easy street. The boy’s had it real good for a long time.
In today’s LA Times, George McGovern takes Cheney to task for saying Domocrats are returning to 1972 – the year George Mac ran for president – and the analogy is two terrible wars. Cheney, for his own good, and the good of the nation and the world, should spend the night in Sadr City. Bunk with the guys in one of those little police sites. Tag along on patrol.
He’s had it real easy a long time.
And yesterday, after Cheney hit the trough at a Republican policy luncheon on the Hill, he offered a few sweet words of wisdom on Democrats, the war, how it going so good and anyone who says it’s lost is playing into the long, evil fingers of Osma Bin Laden. A too fat of a life has ‘tarded the VP’s brain.
And while DC was yapping, Rep. Dennis Kucinich introduced some Articles of Impeachment against Cheney, using the Declaration of Independence as a source: “…(when an official) becomes destructive of the founding purposes, that official must be held accountable.”
If Dennis don’t get him, the bogeyman eventually will.
Somebody ought to. DC keeps harping about Osma’s tie to Saddam, even after just about everybody on the planet knew there is no tie, no link, no nothing, and there never has been. DC has to be, along with Karl Rove, two of the most-dishonest men on the planet. Neither would not hesitate to stoop to the lowest form of action to get what they want.
DC has a good life a long time and it’s slowly coming to an end.
Word

In an age where events are known so fast and everybody just about everywhere can instantly become aware of every corner of the globe even the smallest little word can carry a big weight.
And the little word here today is “palliate,” which means to try and make a wrong or an offense seem less severe, mitigate the circumstances. And palliate is just what the Bush Black House is now doing with the announcement that Scott Bloch, Bush-appointed head of the US Office of Special Counsel, will lead a sweeping investigation into Karl Rove’s politicking with taxpayer money and breaking a ton of federal laws while doing it.
Bloch himself was recently investigated by the IG of the Office of Personnel Management for pushing a right-wing agenda down the throats of federal employees.
So all Bloch is doing is an obvious attempt to try and bury Rove’s political wrongdoing by creating and intense investigation and then, By Golly, there was no indication of any lawbreaking on Rove’s part. Bush/Cheney/Rove are just trying to palliate the whole mess.
Lie, lie, and monkeys can fly.
