….and a U.S. Army employee has been charged with conspiracy to act as an unregistered agent for the government of Israel.
….and George Bush is still the president and spent a quiet New Year’s Day not worrying about a thing. Asshole.
….and Israel is still bashing the bee’s nest while screaming, “Why are you stinging me! We want some peace for crying out loud!” and is still missing the point.
….and the Green Zone in Iraq has been handed over the Iraqis.
….and Dennis Kucinich dares to ask the UN to investigate the Israelis and their lopsided response to Hamas/Palestinians! Call Kucinich what you want, at least he has the guts to rage against the machine for crying out loud.
….and the International Herald Tribune is asking aloud if the last 8 years of our economy was one big fat Ponzi Scheme. I say yes it was. Spit.
But the good news is….BARACK OBAMA & HIS FAMILY ARE FINALLY MOVING TO WASHINGTON, DC! Woohoo! Now this is a great way to start the year instead of a hangover. LOL
Kay, add to that the fact that the Yellowstone Caldera is showing a marked increase in seismic activity, including one 37 miles down over 3 on the Richter Scale.
Even Mother Earth can’t wait much longer till the worst president EVER is gone to his sub-burb-in home, (I phonetically spelled it fur him so he can learn to speak it wright) …. him being the fake cowboy, pretending to ranch the old pig farm he bought, to foole the stupid people we all call republicans the last 8 years.
But then again stupid is as stupid does and reich wing republicans have proved beyond a shadow of a doubt they are the stupid people in America time and time again.
Can they be “raptured” now so the rest of us can live in peace?
I noticed that Yellowstone story too, kinda scary, cause if that thing blows, its game over.
The world is a pretty bad place, and I dont envy Obama’s task at all.. oh, and Bush is still President for 18 more days. Plenty of time to make things even worse.
Good gawd, Clif, you’re right:

Makes you wonder why the seismic activity increased quickly? Oh, it probably has something to do with George Bush and his deregulation of the mining industry! LOL
I long for the rapture. I can’t wait to wave bye-bye to the freaks who inhabited our planet and who are now on a one way trip to
hellheaven!Chris, do not remind us how many days George Bush remains our president. You’re giving me stomach cramps!!!!
Have I mentioned how much I love Dennis Kucinich? Is he the only Patriot in the U.S. House? Appears so (well, my Congressman, Mike Michaud, is right behind him! Mike voted against both bailouts. Smart man too!). I can’t wait to watch Kucinich in action over the next 4-8 years slapping everyone around, speaking truth to power, and raging against the machine with that little body of his.
Dennis Kucinich & Mike Michaud …What would our lives be like if the House and Senate had a majority of reps. like them.Mike Michaud punched a time clock for 20 years..HS diploma. Down South Evo Morales is running Bolivia without a HS diploma ..balanced their budget pretty quickly. Said most politicians think of govt. like a business. By that, I gather he was referring to their getting rich while in office. I’m thankful that bush left South America alone to prosper while he was busy stealing oil from the Middle East.
Molly: Oh I don’t know about Bush leaving South America alone. He has pushed threw a couple of trade agreements, was pushing hard for one with Columbia and has behind the scenes turned up tensions between Chavez and Venezuela and some of it’s US ‘friendly’ neighbors.
Clif & Chris: Yep, if the super volcano in Yellowstone erupts, it’s the end of the world as we know it, with no rapture for the phony christians either.
Damn! I recommend the books ‘Perfectly Legal’ and ‘Free Lunch’ by NYT’s investigative journalist David Cay Johnston. Learn how the super rich are screwing the rest of us through tax loopholes and schemes.
Both books are eye openers and unbiased in the blame. One thing I learned was that it was the democrats back in 1975 who changed the usury laws of this nation. The interest rates charged today by banks and credit card companies were illegal before 1975.
It also shows how the I.R.S. and the SEC look the other way when the super rich like Bill Gates and other CEO’s, movie stars and athletes use these schemes that cost the poor, middle class and upper middle class and shareholders billions in tax dollars.
My conclusion: Just more proof that we aren’t being represented and should just tell congress and the I.R.S. to stick it!
I should of wrote: The high interest rates charged today by banks and credit card companies were illegal before 1975.
Way to look out for ‘we the people’ you corrupt and greedy bastards!
Got to an Internet Cafe in Sydney to check my email….54 emails since I left home on Wednesday, most of it Spam. Won a half dozen multi-million dollar lotteries and Nigerians keep dying and leaving me milllions more in inheritances. No wonder my computer back home is crippled with 5 viruses! Will try to clean them off when I get back on the 19th (just in time for the inauguration). Got the BBC in my hotel so keeping up on the David and Goliath war in Gaza except this time David is not the Jew! Watched the Today Show this morning too as it is Friday in the states but Saturday here.
Rarely here anyone here even mentions Dubya just as in Europe a year ago. I don’t think most of the world gives a damn about the Bush Klan.
Well, this Internet Cafe is not airconditioned and hotter than blazes. Climate here is Mediterranean similiar to California with cool nights, overcast mornings, and so far only in the mid-70’s in the afternoon. It was warmer in Houston when I left. Went to Bondi Beach this morning and got a bit of sunburn through the overcast sky. Closer to the ozone hole over Antartica so will watch out for the increased UV rays. Later.
The cruise ship sails Monday evening and looking forward to New Zealand. Will try to peep in now and then to see who is ridingin the LIMO!
Just posted from Australia and got blocked by Spamcatcher, so it isn’t just the IP from my Texas computer. Must be my handle! Askimet doesn’t like Texans!!!
*waving to Grant in Australia*!!!! Hope you’re having a wonderful time!
