"If by a “Liberal” they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people — their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties — someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a “Liberal,” then I’m proud to say I’m a “Liberal.” ~ John F. Kennedy, 1960

But it weren’t the one bush or cheeneey (H/T Tweety) had in mind ………………..
About sums it all up doesn’t it?
Bin Laden had a plan and the dumb as dirt neo-cons, republiscum and now the bed wetting tea baggers are followin’ it too a Tee,
Too bad he seems much smarter then they are, but his CIA involvement during the Reagan debacle helped bin Laden immensely. (PS we weren’t the only ones)
Bin Laden wanted to draw the US into the same style of war he waged with the CIA help against the Soviets in Afghanistan, a long drawn out battle with mounting casulies till the super power copuldn’t take it any more. Buish did just that and more, the Idiot doubled down in Iraq!!!!!!!
Ole bin Laden couldn’t believe his incredible luck.
Bush the Idiot was too stupid to finish bin forgotten off before beginning a bigger fiasco in Iraq,
Now we have two un-winnable, unfinished wars, to help bin Laden and al qaeda recruit more terrorists while bush the Idiot blew over a trillion of borrowed Chinese dollars in his numb-skull idiotic adventures instead of doing the right thing, using the power and reach of the US to get bin Laden and the rest of the terrorist who actually were behind 9-11,
We all aren’t any safer as the Christmas bomber (re-run of Richard Reid) shows, but bush lost thousands of good troops, had tens of thousands more wounded, wasted over a trillion dollars … PS the grands kids will thanks us for that bill. Now the military is worn out, over extended, with little to show for it, but a grave near Tikrit Iraq, and a huge bill from the borrowed dollars and fresh graves of the fallen.
Heck of a job, you idiots.
Now the bed wetters and rest of the reich wing wants to pile on President Obama for Bush’s incompetency in doing his actual job,
You know, getting the real people behind the attacks, Yes, … actually getting them (dead or alive like Bush claimed he was gonna do) … remember?
He didn’t as soon as March 13, 2002 …
NOT wasting soldiers lives, bodies or the countries wealth on a pipe dream of the US controlled middle east,(the PNAC wet dream) settling personal scores or obtaining the Iraqi oil fields for US control.
Yep he accomplished his mission, … bin Laden that is, …. and bush/cheeneey couldn’t have been a better supporter for him to that mission if they had actually conspired with Bin laden. (which I don’t believe they did, just were too arrogant, stubborn, and foolish to listen to wiser council, and then have take a more prudent and productive course of action.)
8 1/2 years later and the 9-11 planners are still laughing at the incredible luck they had with the dumbest Supreme Court decision ever ….. who would have though 5 justices of the Supreme Court would have screwed us all over that way, … but they did, … and ole’ bin Laden thanks them for it.
He couldn’t have accomplished as much as he did with out their help either.
An Iraqi who died after being tortured with a power drill….
(image found HERE)
I remember many times under George Bush’s regime Iraqis being found in groups in Iraq on the side of the road bound, blindfolded, and tortured with power drills. Now we’re finding out today after the CIA’s Inspector General released a report that techniques used by the CIA included the use of power drills to terrify the prisoners in their custody. The report does not say that the drills were actually used on the prisoners, but what has been nagging at me for years now are the questions: WHO HAD POWER DRILLS IN IRAQ TO TORTURE IRAQIS WITH IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT (after the nightly curfew was imposed each night) TO BEGIN WITH? AND WHO HAD THE MEANS TO PULL IRAQIS OUT OF THEIR HOMES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT SO THEY COULD TORTURE & KILL? (in some cases the bodies were found in the morning which meant they had died somewhere between curfew the night before and dawn the next day)
I’m telling you…..the American contractors had the means to do both. And maybe some of our soldiers did too. We just found out recently that the CIA had hired Blackwater as an assassination squad who were SUPPOSED TO KILL TOP LEADERS IN AL-QAIDA. Sounds good, right? Well, I think Blackwater thought everyone who had brown skin was a top al-Qaida member and this is why Iraqis were found on the side of the road dead with power drill marks on their bodies! Spit.
I’m not saying all were tortured & killed with power drills by Blackwater, but I would like to know how many incidences they are connected to!
George Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and the rest of the war criminals should be in prison!
By the way, I’m not happy either with President Obama for keeping Blackwater on the freaking payroll! It’s time to cut ties with these thieving vicious monsters!
From Democracy Now:
Report: Blackwater Involved in CIA Renditions
The German newspaper Der Spiegel is reporting the CIA used the private military firm Blackwater to transfer foreign prisoners to secret jails. Two former Blackwater employees reportedly claim Blackwater helped move the prisoners to secret prison camps in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Uzbekistan. The news follows last week’s disclosures Blackwater has played a major role in the CIA’s drone attacks in Pakistan and in its aborted assassination program. According to the New York Times, Blackwater currently has over $400 million in State Department contracts. On Friday, the veteran journalist Helen Thomas asked White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs about the Obama administration’s dealings with Blackwater.
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs: “I asked for an update, which I have not yet gotten, on where we are in different contracts. I would—as it relates to CIA’s use of contracting, I would point you specifically to them for responses on that.”
Helen Thomas: “I don’t think they would tell us.”
Gibbs: “They may tell you, Helen. If you use that sweet voice on the phone, you never know what you could get.”
Thomas: “I want them to stop killing people.”
Gibbs: “You should let them know.”
Thomas: “You should, too.”
President Obama gave a speech at Camp Lejeune on Friday where he told our troops that all but 35-50,000 troops will be out of Iraq by August 2010 and those soldiers held over will be returning to America during 2011. I’m sure the jackboot licking Bush neocons will consider this move by President Obama to be ‘cutting & running’ without stating America had won the illegal occupation of Iraq hands down, but we have to remember it was George Bush who signed a deal with the Iraqi government that our troops will be home by 2011. How come Bush didn’t do a press conference stating we had won the war and that he had signed this agreement as the proof? Coward.
Personally, we never should have gone into Iraq because this country had absolutely nothing to do with the attack on our nation on 9/11/01. Going into Iraq was the dream of Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, George Bush, and the other PNACers who desperately wanted the oil, because whoever controls the oil controls the planet. Basically, it was a financial transaction for the Oil Maggots and their contractors played out live for all of us to see. Many of our soldiers and Iraqis died for this financial transaction and still are. How much money have we spent in Iraq since the first boot hit the ground? Almost a TRILLION dollars and by the time we leave Iraq, it could be close to $3 TRILLION. And what have we gotten back? Nothing. We have a new nation in Iraq that is becoming very chummy with Iran (you know….America’s ‘enemy’) and the American contractors who got their no-bid contracts did shoddy work to leave behind for the Iraqis. In other words, it’s embarrassing!
Last night on Rachel Maddow’s show, she brought up the fact that Blackwater has changed it’s name to “Xe” which apparently is pronounced as, “Zee”. While Maddow made fun of the change and pointed out how the religious right and other neocons are NOW renaming & redefining names/words in their lives to make themselves feel better, she also made the point that “Xe” doesn’t sound so ”law breaky at all” (LOL) and then rolled her eyes…
So why out of all the names they could have renamed their company to, why the hell did they chose “Xe”? Tah dah! I know why Blackwater changed their name to “Xe”! Go to Google and type in ‘xe’ or ‘Xe’ or ‘XE’ and tell me what you get. That’s right! You get close to 100,000,000 hits of nothing! Yep, ole Blackwater who wants to change it’s tarnished image has now made it so you’ll never find out what they’re doing in a million years and it will take you just as long to find an article written about them if you wanted to try!
Unfreakingbelievable. After 8 years of George Bush, apparently these assholes think Americans are still stupid. Well, just so the criminals know, we can most certainly type in, “innocent civilian killed iraq contractor” or “diplomat contractor” or something to that effect and will still be able to find ya!
And we all know ‘blackwater’ is actually another way of saying ‘oil’, now don’t we? Oh how the right wing nutcakes of the American Taliban think the rest of us are stupid! Nope. We’re not. We figured you assholes out a long time ago. Spit.
My, my, my….seems that the Bush Regime is trying to tie up loose ends before parting. Well, okay, there are so many loose ends to the Bush Regime it looks like a severely tattered blanket at this point, but the one thing George Bush has touted about himself since the morning of 9/11/01 is that he was tough on terror.
Uh ha.
Well, this week, we’ve got these to ponder & scratch our heads about:
- Khalid Sheik Mohammad and the other four 9/11/01 ‘masterminds’ have all decided to plead guilty to their crimes.
- The Blackwater contractors who gunned down, bombed, and killed innocent Iraqis at a packed intersection in 2007 have all given themselves up to authorities to face their justice.
It’s so interesting to me that things are going this smoothly! Yeah, yeah, how the hell did the Bush Regime get Khalid and others to plead guilty after all these years…..and on cue…..without torturing them? And what is the Bush Regime hiding besides the torturing of the prisoners down there at GITMO? Is the Bush Regime afraid these prisoners might tell the truth about how they were obtained or their treatment thereafter and the Regime just wants them to go away and use their monkey court today to “prove” to Americans that they jailed those connected to 9/11 (just as Clinton jailed all 5 who bombed the WTC in 1993)? Or maybe it’s gotta do something with how Barack Obama wants to close GITMO when he is officially sworn in as president? It’s very possible George Bush wants to make GITMO out to be the place that houses the most vile prisoners on the planet, just so Barack won’t close it down, because having the prison down there in Cuba is keeping American eyes off it.
And why did these 9/11 masterminds decide to confess on election day, November 4th? Seems kind of strange don’t you think? Did it happen this way so Barack wouldn’t notice and what would have happened if John McCain was elected that night instead? Would they have confessed or not?
And what about the Blackwater contractors who murdered innocent Iraqis back in 2007? I find it very interesting that they’re suddenly coming forward, giving themselves up, and their company, Blackwater, is getting away scotfree. Let me guess….GEORGE BUSH WILL PARDON THESE ASSHOLES BEFORE HE LEAVES OFFICE? Hey, could be. George Bush will do everything in his power to protect himself, his Regime, and those who committed crimes on his behalf.
Where was Sen. Susan Collins when it came to Blackwater and other criminal contractors over in Iraq in doing oversight of these companies? Oh wait. I know….
She was fine with them stealing billions from us, so that means she didn’t give a flying rat’s ass about these contractors raping, torturing, and killing innocent Iraqis either! She’s a Pig. A lipstick wearing one too.
So, how long will it be before George Bush (with Susan Collins utmost support!) has his CIA create a blue-screen video of the ‘live’ Osama bin Laden to dupe Americans that he has caught America’s #1 Terrorist before he leaves office? Huh? How long? I mean, really, most Americans consider him dead, but it does make you wonder with all these loose ends the Regime is tying up at the moment that it seems plausible they’re working on something….just to ‘prove’ that George Bush was the “most amazing president during the most amazing time in our country’s history”! Spit.
I’m ready for this video. I won’t believe it’s content either. Those Americans who do should be ashamed of themselves one more time!
(picture)
This is just outrageous. Remember back in 2004 when four Blackwater employees were killed, burned, dragged through the streets of Baghdad, and then were hanged on a bridge for all the world to see (pictured above)? It makes you wonder what these Blackwater employees did to deserve that kind of treatment. Oh wait. I know! They were Americans in a sovereign nation that did not attack us. To top it all off…OUR COUNTRY USED WHITE PHOSPHORUS AGAINST THE PEOPLE OF FALLUJAH a few weeks later, so it’s no wonder any Iraqi was pissed off at Americans and went after any American (even if they weren’t involved in the Vietnam-napalm-like attack on innocent people) that came their way, because will we ever know that the four Blackwater employees were ‘just driving through’ before they were brutally killed and hadn’t actually provoked the whole thing? Nope. We just have to assume they were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Here’s some video of our soldiers using white phosphorus in Fallujah, Iraq:
In 2007, Blackwater security employees killed 17 Iraqis and now two of their employees are being charged with shipping rifle silencers in bags of dogfood. Nice. What the hell does Blackwater need silencers in Iraq for? Maybe the Iraqis who are killed during the curfew hours over there were being tortured and killed by Blackwater employees or some other security contractor over there? Hey, could be! Assholes. The Brits have admitted to torturing and killing Iraqis with power drills, so it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if during the night, Blackwater has been killing people for no reason other than pulling them out of their homes and stating, “You’re violating the curfew!”, and then shooting them with their gun that has a silencer.
Gives me the creeps and the chills. I’m sure I don’t want to know EVERYTHING Blackwater, Halliburton, KBR, Betchel, and the unknown contractors have done over there for the past five years. Makes me sick to my stomach just thinking about it.
It’s my hope President Obama in 2009 can start removing our troops from Iraq, as well as, the contractors. Actually, maybe the contractors should stay there if you know what I mean. Under the direction of George Bush, the Iraqi Cabinet has agreed to our troops leaving in June of 2009 (Bush is cutting & running but don’t tell anyone!), and hopefully President Obama can get them out of there before this date.
