CAN WE SURVIVE MORE NEO-CON ADVICE????

Read an article by John Broder & Robin Toner of
the NY Times in which they used Kristol, Perle,
Stinky Limbauger & Duncan Hunter as referrals.
Imagine seeking something thoughtful from that
quartet.

Kristol is trying to get off a schneider. He has yet to
offer a reasoned opinion that has borne fruit.

Richard Perle should be in prison for past indis-
cretions of 1-handling classified information and
2- muscleing kickbacks from defense contractors.
These two lames spearheaded the neo-con crowd
in bringing the U.S. to the quagmire that's Iraq.
Now they are yipping for a "surge" of more troops
in Iraq. Also bombings of Syria & Iran are planned.

These two foolishes are as obvious and tedious as
a twice told tale.

What can one say about Stinky Limbauger? He
rants manically, he distorts pathetically on a 4
day work week. He couldn't even do that if didn't
have the faxes, the E-mails & White House press
releases coming in every day. And, yes, he makes
a zillion dollars.

Duncan Hunter. When he came back from an
"inspection" of Gitmo & ate lemon chicken on
T.V. (the kind of chow the prisoners were all-
egedly getting) all I could think of was the
great Red Skelton's Guzzlers Gin routine. We
all thought Duncan was on the rib & were
stunned to realize he was serious.

You know, I am sure, that he has announced he
will campaign for the Repugs nomination to the
presidency. We must realize the serious dilemma
that envelopes us if a clown like this thinks he has
a chance to be president. Compared to Bush Dunc
is like a Princeton academician, but president,
come on, give us a break.

GOOD RIDDANCE TO H.H.H.

In the next few days the defeated Repubs will depart
the House of Representatives as well as the few who
chose not to run for re-election. Foremost among the
latter is 83 year old Henry Hyde of Illinois. Henry's
been in the House over 30 years & before that fed
himself at the State's public trough. A true public
servant.

This Old Man was a factor in 3 controversial decis-
ions: an abortion bill in 1976, an hiv/aids bill in
2003 and in 1998 the bill of impeachment leveled
against Bill Clinton. Hardly the most impressive
resume to show for 30 years in the House.

On the abortion issue the sanctimonious Hyde
didn't hesitate to represent his religious affilia-
tion by-passing the constituency who elected him.
For all his years in political life it was ever thus
with this holier than thou faker.

The Global Hiv/Aids bill was a humanitarian ob-
ligation that a great majority backed. It was also
a great self-preservation & conscience saver for
the philanderers among us. No-one wants to take
this scourge home to mama or poppa. This was a
Bush initiative & the rub was (as with others be-
fore & after this program ) the lack of gelt. Major
reason: Hyde & the House Repubs working with
the ideologists in the White House had tax breaks,
subsidies & an illegal war to finance. One rarely
reads how much has made it to the aids program,
but one can safely bet it is well underfunded. It
was smoke, mirrors, public relations and Bull.
And Holy Henry knew it.

Lastly, Bill Clinton. Seldom has a more hypocrit-
ical scene been played out by a pol than Hyde's
memorable performance. Day after day he att-
acked Clinton from soup to nuts for lying about
private, consentual sex act. One can visualize
the priggish ancient tumbling down the halls of
Congress, beads and prayer book in tow, trying
to sell his conviction theory in the impeachment
trial he knows he can't win. Suddenly it came out
the old roue' had a long time affair & a bastard
child although he was married with children. He
passed it off as a "youtful indiscretion. He was
in his 40's at the time. Two things happened
that are worth recording: 1-He continued his self
righteousness and his losing campaign against
Clinton. 2- After the initial report the main
stream media promptly forgot about Hyde's
infidelity & continued to lionize the unhallowed
old thing.

Good riddance super Hypocrite Henry Hyde.

BLAIR'S WARNINGS IN DUBAI

Tony's at it again. Diverting his countrymen and the
foolish American President from the debacle they
have wrought in the shattered land of Mesopotamia.

Tony (ryhmes with baloney) is now expounding on
Iran which has something in common with Iraq:
neither country poses or posed a threat Britain or
America.

Makes no diff to the defected duo. Their song is
"Let's saber rattle against Iran and scare hell out
of our people".

I'm betting it can't happen again.

Spoiler John wishes you a Happy Holiday and a Merry Christmas Day.

CORRECTION PLEASE

An acknowledgement of Larry O'Donnell's article on
Huff Po headlined as "Rush Was Right". Hard to be-
lieve there is a difference of opinion with Larry over
an egomaniacle ranter.

Stinky's attributes are his stentorian voice and del-
ivery. His failing are the specious reasonings to a
howling, yowling mob of non thinkers, non readers
& sycophants who aptly refer to themselves as ditto-
heads.

Here are some facts regarding the subject to which
Larry alluded. Stinky referred to the ISG report the day
after it was released. He said it was NOT suggesting a
a cut and run program. The following evening Bill Kristol,
(Weakly Standard editor & Neo-con leader in the debacle
that is Iraq) said on Fox News, that the ISG was a " dis-
guished surrender". When Stinky came on for his radio
rant the next day he blasted the ISG report as a
"cut & run surrender without words".

Frankly, I'm surprised Stinky allowed himself to be trapped
as being a follower of Neo-con thought. That may still be
okay in the White House, but it sure as hell couldn't fill a
Volkswagon anywhere else.

THE CONUNDRUM WHOSE NAME IS BLAIR

It's not difficult to fathom why George Bush drove
his country into the disaster that is Iraq. One fac-
tor was that he was pummeled by hyperbole by
his neo-con aides of what Saddam was going to do
us. Add to that Bush's lifelong failure at virtually
every opportunity he was given, made him ripe
to take advantage of redemption in the form of a
conquering hero. He decided to bounce Saddam
& grab Iraq's oil at the same time

Bush's current continuation is more baffling. The
oil may still go to the powers that be(62 & 63 ISG)
but the war is a malignant calamity to the dead &
wounded, the ruined infrastructures, the economy
and our country may never regain its sickening
fall from the world's most prestigious nation.
Redemption must be made of very stern stuff.

But Tony Blair. Why he lied to get the Brits into
the mess is mystifying. Unlike Bush, his advisors
were skeptical, some downright opposed. Also
he had to know that he & his countrymen would
only play a subservient & sycophantic role as yes
men to a person of elephantine limitations. The
only explanation that may pass without contro-
versey is that Britian will be a heluva lot better
off when he's benched.

Comes now the suppressed Butler Report by the
House of Commons Foreign Office & Carne Ross
Key negotiator with the Brit delegation at the
U.N. in 2001, 02, 03.

Please read this report. It's shocking. At one point
the report tells us how Blair was told Saddam had
NO biological, chemical nor nuclear material.
Blair told Parliament Saddam could activate
his WMD in 45 minutes. Mr Ross conveyed the
info to the US delegation. They agreed. Bush ig-
nored it. It is pretty conclusive now, very few
Amercans believe anything Bush says, but at that
time we just didn't know that when he said some-
thing, anything, he thought was right & he be-
lieved it to be fact. There is a medical term for
that affliction.

The tragedy of this war is that the invasion
could have been stopped in its tracks by either
of two men. Tony Blair & Colin Powell. Look
at them now. Between them & all their friends
they couldn't field a soccer team.

SAME OLD FLIP/FLOPPING STINKY

Hope you noted El Rushbo Stinky Limbauger came out & said
the Iraq Study Group report was not suggesting cut & run.

Next day, Bill Kristol, guiding light of the failure that is Iraq
& editor of the Weakly Standard mag, called the report
"disguised surrender"

Next day Stinky said the report "is cut & run, surrender
without the words" That may wake up a few ditto-heads
as to who is calling the shots in Stinky's daily rants.

It's the lying neo-cons, stupid!

WHO IS BEHIND THIS COVER UP?

This month a naval petty officer was sentenced to
12 years in the can for among other things espio-
nage. Pretty light considering desertion, larceny
and destruction of government property were part
of his guilty plea. Seems Ariel Weinmann admitt-
ed he stole classified info & "passed" it to an "un-
disclosed" country.

In Federal District Court when one pleads guilty
to a charge one must give some detail of his/her
crime & the participation there-in. If other per-
sons are involved or there is an on going invest-
igation they will be handeled quite gingerly.

This case was evidently heard at a naval station
with a military judge involved. Questions abound.

1- Is this prosecution the normal modus operandi
for a military judge to hear a case at a naval stat-
ion that involves espionage & 3 other felonies?
2- It's easy to knowingly understand avoiding in-
dividuals (on going investigation, etc.), but it is
hard to comprehend a non disclosure ruling ag-
ainst an inanimate entity that has no bearing on
the crimes, namely a country.
3- If it was Syria or Iran wouldn't it be a public
relations coup for a very weak administration to
report that to their faithful?
4- If it was "state within a state" (Hamas or Hez-
bollah) wouldn't that tip us off to the nefarious
intents of those organizations?
5- Suppose our friends Russia, Egypt or India
had been the receivers would that call for an
agonizing reappraisal or at least cause many
headlines.
6- Who made the decision to accept Weimann's
guilty plea at a naval station. Why was it made?
Why cover this up? After all we did foil a traitor
& got a sentence of 12 boffos. Damn good work.
7- This Administration has lost the confidence
of its people. Wouldn't this have been a glori-
ous start of a new page?
8- Did the country that was not disclosed know
the material was classified by our government?
Did it turn Weimann over to the law?

If this is the way military courts & judges operate
by keeping the American people deep in the dark
someone should tell them it is not the hallmark of
an informed citizenry of our Republic.

BI-PARTISANSHIP, REPUBLICAN STYLE

Harry Reid let it be known on Jan. 4, 2007 he has
a meeting with Mitch McConnell, repub minority
leader. McConnell said he would like very much
to contribute to bi-partisanship in the new cong-
ress. To all intents & purpose he has been the de
facto leader these last years. Doctor Frist didn't
have the administrative skills for senate leader-
ship. (Seems he was lacking in other skills also,
as he saw Terry Schiavo on T.V.& publicly dia-
nosed her 100% opposite of what her attending
physicians declared. That cooked his goose).

McConnell is an extreme conservative who has
voted for the Iraq war, tax cuts for the super
rich, for Scalito on the U.S. Supreme Court,
for making bankruptcy tougher, to kill class
action cases, for the patriot acts, for murdering
habeus corpus. AND he has joined the chorus
for sending more troops to Iraq. You get the idea,
don't you? Your vote & November 7 doesn't
register an iota with this guy.

Want to know the secret? He is a big, big
fund raiser for his party.

Sheryl Stolberg (nyt) listened to him praise the
Baker Study Group and asked McConnell what
he thought the President should do. He replied,
"I'm not going to give the President any advice"
What in the devil is he going to give him then?

A word of advice to Harry Reid: If you give the
duplicitous McConnell 12 cat scans at the Mayo
Clinic you can bet they won't find one (1) bi-
partisan bone in his bod.

BAKER-HAMILTON STUDY GROUP

While we await several reports from the Pentagon,
congress & whoever else Bush set up to buffer the
Study Group's ideas, it seems a mini remark here
& there would be fun.

Couldn't find an unabridged copy of the whole
thing, but there was millions of excerpts & com-
mentary of the Group's words.

Did note that Condi Mushroom Cloud did not
get a smell of printers ink in the papers, the T.V.
or the blogosphere. Guess none of the Group
could stand her bantering every question asked,
nor would listen to her euphemisms over facts
routine.

There was amazingly little reported about intel-
ligence. One scribe noted the Group said the
intel community can & must do better. Granted
it can, but how the dickens will it when President
Foolish has appointed the head of the CIA
(Hayden) the FBI (Mueller) the NSA (Hadley)
the Czar (Negroponte), devoted Bushies all.

Later.

A CHINK IN Mc CAIN'S ARMOR

This was detailed by Prof. Aaron Belkin, (@ polsci
ucsb.edu.) in the Arizona Star & picked up by A.P.

George Stephenapoulos of ABC asked John Mc-
Cain if he supported gay rights. John paused a
questionable second then said he supported gay
rights, BUT he thought booting them out of the
military was the right thing to do, BUT he was
opposed to discriminating against any American
AND he opposed discrimination in the workplace.
How's that for "confusion by design"

This is the leader for the 2008 run for the repub.
nomination for president.

As Marse John taps his soft shoe con about gays
The Chief ordered a look-see into Mr. Straight
Talk's suggestion to bump off Maqtada al Sadr.

Be with you on that soon.

BUSH/BOLTON SHOW
THEIR VERSION OF STAYING THE COURSE.

Knowing he has no shot at representing the U.S.
at the United Nations with a Democratic Senate
taking over, acting Ambassador John Bolton will
"resign" the end of this month. President Bush
had let it be known he was re-nominating Bolton
even though he failed to be confirmed last year by
a Republican Senate. (The post election, 2006
impartation of Bush's bi-partisanship).

Mucho thanks to departing Senator Lincoln Chafee
who, in effect, let it be known he would rather vote
for Mike Tyson, a real tough guy, than a bulldozer
whose specialization is browbeating women,
children & underlings. Chafee is O.K. in spades.

Also, incoming Chairman Pat Leahy just smiled
when someone asked how he would feel if Bolton's
nomination came before his Judiciary Committee.

So, what happens?
Bush's Bully Boy Bolton, our fearless gladiator in
the International Arena, just cut & run.

CONDI MUSHROOM CLOUD, UGH!!!!

Huff Po had a quick read on Condi Mushroom
Cloud. She let the world know she will not dis-
cuss any mistakes the admin made until the
President leaves office.

Two replys: Who the hell asked her?
Who the hell cares?

BUSH'S RE-ACTION TO HIS 11/7 ELECTION "THUMPIN".

Almost all American's assumed after his election
defeat President Bush would adjust his policies,
if only minutely, to accomodate the mandate of
the voters.

Among the wants of those voters was to get our
troops out of Iraq's civil war as quickly as feas-
able & a bipartisan participation with the Dems
to proceed with the Government's businesses.

In less than a month since the thumpin, Pres.
Bush has notified the American people while
he was in Estonia our troops will not "quit"
Iraq. Some one guided him to Latvia where
he sat with that President & told her and a
gang of reporters our troops will stay in Iraq
"- - - until the mission is completed". Finally
in Amman, Jordan, after being mortified by
a no show, the next morning he held the
shortest summit in history with the Iraqi
P.M. & guess what came out of that. Bush
told a joint press group that "- - any busi-
ness about a graceful exit just simply has no
realism at all".

Which should convince even the slowest
among us that for all his screeching about
the vaunted election priviledge he doesn't
give a shit for what you think or say or vote
he's going to do it his way. Incomprehensible
& unreasoned, but his way.

But wait, there's more. Remember the 4 nom-
inees for judgeships? Some sort of a deal was
made and the Dems wouldn't filibuster a
couple of judges & the Repubs would with-
draw the others and not go forward with ban-
ning the filibuster. Everything went as agreed
until Bush informed Frist he wants the other
nominees. Of course he'll get none.

One more. This one is a lulu.Heads will shake
& eyes will roll. With classic Bush hubris he
appointed a religious right, unrealistic, ex-
tremist, Eric Keroack, to head the Nation's
Family Planning Agency. Eric would make
Queen Victoria seem like a window hooker
in Amsterdam. Problem is this agency funds
many outlets that do not specify religions.
The Chief wants more research on Eric so
we'll be hearing about him. He's against it
all, even contraception for MARRIED folks.

Spoilerjohn is going to keep a monthly report
on Bush's hyperbole. Hope he doesn't run out
of pen & ink.
