Mission Accomplished?

The republic of FUBAR is still as FUBAR as ever. Seven Iraqi national troops were killed by a roadside bomb and apparently, The usual assholes killed the captured Marine Corporal Wassef Ali Hassoun


and other than the purely speculative and highly inflammatory allegation that Cpl. Hassoun was trying to skip back to Lebanon, we know almost nothing about the circumstances surrounding the Corporal's captivity and now seeming demise. I find it incredibly irresponsible that the unquestioning Chalabi Cheering section known as the New York Times would even give air to a rumor of desertion this past week without anything to substantiate it. It almost seems like a cheap attempt to mitigate the fact that a Muslim member of our armed forces was now a victim of these nutcases.


you would think that the recent embarassment of having admittedly been so eager to believe whatever they were being fed to placate the administration and its handlers that they would treat such speculation a little more cautiously.


damn

UPDATE 7/6/04 10:05AM
Apparently, there is some glimmer of good news for Cpl. Hassoun as there is some sign that he may not have been killed after all and may have been set free While that would most certainly be a nice change, i'll keep my optimism about it guarded until we see some proof.

Good Point

Renato points out in the comments section of General J.C. Christian's Blog that today is the one-year anniversary of the day that Chimpy dared the enemy to kill our troops with his not-infamous-enough "I say 'bring 'em on.'" remark.


and thanks to any number of people who either already hated us or were incensed enough by the hackery of Bremer and the assortment of "Bad App;es" at the upper echelons of DoD, 655 members of our armed forces have been killed since Emperor Shit-for-Brains said it, and yet these assholes claim that it's their critics who encourage our enemies.


"There are some who feel like that the conditions are such that they can attack us there. My answer is bring them on," Bush said. "We've got the force necessary to deal with the security situation."

Why do George Bush and all of his brain-dead right-wing assholes hate America?

And with that, dear readers (all three of you) have a happy weekend

Fahrenheit 9/11 a not-quite review

I got to see F9/11 this past sunday and i'll admit that, yes, in my case and seemingly the case of many other viewers in the audience, it was a case of the film "preaching to the choir." Of course, unless you've been living under a rock, by now you know much of what there is to know about the content of F9/11 and likely you have gotten a good dose of the right-wing hysterics from people who would expect America as a whole to hold a film-maker to a higher standard of credibility than the one to which they expect us to hold the President.


Between those illogical leaps and the kool-aid drinkers who will condemn the movie sight-unseen because they have been told to hate it as if it was the filmic equivalent of the face of Emmanuel Goldstein at the Two-Minutes-Hate, i have to reserve a special layer of my cats' litterbox for the people whose most cutting criticism of Michael Moore is that he's a fat guy who maybe isn't the sharpest dressed guy in the world.


at which point i say you have justified every jibe at Bush's chimp-like appearance and even more so Bush's sub-simian intellect.


oh and by the way... The (Complete and Utter) Dick (Cheney) can still go fuck himself.

Traitor Douchebag

Bob Novak shouldn't be challenging anyone else's credibility until he comes clean about the Plame Leak and he's got to be fucking kidding if he expects anyone with half a grain of sense to just take anything Condi Rice as gospel.


Just because you've been chugging Karl's kool-aid, don't expect the rest of us to join you.

Fucknuttery
I guess this asshat has been sharing pills with Rush

Because he won't be happy until he's managed to shit on nine out of the first ten Amendments

Especially the First.


Reuters picked up a copy of BushCo's strategy guide for mobilizing the churches for his campaign.


Now, I'm no churchgoer, but any church that would endorse the Miserable Failure isn't one i'm going to want to attend even if i was.

Holy Shit!!

I hope THIS never gets anywhere beyond the rhetorical question or it will seem that Chimpy is trying to get that dictatorship he wished for.
