In the foreign policy apparatus of Washington, the Carlyle Group inhabits one of the most darkened rooms of all — hiding in plain sight in offices   more...a mere five minute walk down Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House. Into this room, Briody has wandered uninvited and flipped on the light, to reveal the entire spin-cycle apparatus of post public sector employment that keeps the top men of successive administrations still gainfully employed in the fields they know best (typically aerospace and defense) once the boss has vacated the White House and returned to private life.

Quote: - Congressman Ron Paul M.D.
"For those who thought a Democratic congress would end the War in
Iraq, think again: their new budget proposes supplemental funds totaling
about $150 billion in 2008   more...and $50 billion in 2009 for Iraq. This is in
addition to the ordinary Department of Defense budget of more than
$500 billion, which the Democrats propose increasing each year just
like the Republicans."

Ron Paul is the George Washington of our era.

(Look in the descriptions for the link to Pt.2)War Made Easy reaches into the Orwellian memory hole to expose a 50-year pattern of government deception and media spin that has dragged the United States   more...into one war after another from Vietnam to Iraq. Narrated by actor and activist Sean Penn, the film exhumes remarkable archival footage of official distortion and exaggeration from LBJ to George W. Bush, revealing in stunning detail how the American news media have uncritically disseminated the pro-war messages of successive presidential administrations.
War Made Easy gives special attention to parallels between the Vietnam war and the war in Iraq. Guided by media critic Norman Solomon’s meticulous research and tough-minded analysis, the film presents disturbing examples of propaganda and media complicity from the present alongside rare footage of political leaders and leading journalists from the past, including Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Defense Secretary Robert McNamara, dissident Senator Wayne Morse, and news correspondents Walter Cronkite and Morley Safer.
Norman Solomon’s work has been praised by the Los Angeles Times as “brutally persuasive” and essential “for those who would like greater context with their bitter morning coffee.” This film now offers a chance to see that context on the screen.

You know, just the other day, while working on disaster response plans, I was asking myself the question, "Bob (I always call myself that), we've got nothing in here on how to protect ourselves during   more...attacks by flesh-eating zombies."

Remember Osama bin Laden?
He's the evil mastermind who single-handedly inspired the war on terror while operating from a cave in a remote location in Afghanistan.
Somehow he and his band managed to outwit   more...the entire US Air Defense, built and maintained at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars.
Bush can't find him and in public statements doesn't seem to care whether he is found or not.

No weapons on mass destruction in Iraq.
No external force involved in 9/11 (except for many some help from Israeli operatives who I'm sure viewed the whole thing as a patriotic exercise.)  less

FUNNY DUBB THAT WAS JUST PULLED OFF YOUTUBE AFTER 3 HOURS OF LIVE TIME

A classic tournament knockout!

When the passion fruit comes for you, will you know how to defend yourself?

"Again and again, records show, the administration has enlisted
analysts as a rapid reaction force to rebut what it viewed as critical
news coverage, some of it by the networks’ own Pentagon
correspondents.   more...For example, when news articles revealed that troops in
Iraq were dying because of inadequate body armor, a senior Pentagon
official wrote to his colleagues: 'I think our analysts —
properly armed — can push back in that arena.'"
