The Bush administration was, for years, illegally spying on Americans in clear and obvious violation of statute and likely still are.

The fucking cocksucker is a criminal. Please pay attention.

Not Legal

I kind of feel like Glenn Greenwald has to write a version of this post every day for the next 5000 years before maybe a few more people will understand: the Bush administration was, for years, illegally spying on unknown numbers of Americans in clear and obvious violation of statute and likely still are.

FBI involved in illegal domestic US spying.

Imagine our shock.

The fucking idiot US president insults the Queen of England.

On the other hand, there was the president suggesting Queen Elizabeth was over 230 years old.

The queen, a sprightly 81, gave an embarrassed Bush a gracious nod after he suggested she had celebrated the United States' founding in 1776. He meant to say she had attended 1976 bicentennial festivities.

US Attorney given $1.5 million payoff by Republican firm to drop probe of California congressman

Ms. Yang says she left for personal reasons, but there is growing evidence that the White House was intent on removing her. Kyle Sampson, the Justice Department staff member in charge of the firings, told investigators last month in still-secret testimony that Harriet Miers, the White House counsel at the time, had asked him more than once about Ms. Yang. He testified, according to Congressional sources, that as late as mid-September, Ms. Miers wanted to know whether Ms. Yang could be made to resign

"an all-time low for this president.."

You'd think that phrase wouldn't be so common.

But According to the new NEWSWEEK Poll, the public’s approval of Bush has sunk to 28 percent, an all-time low for this president in our poll, and a point lower than Gallup recorded for his father at Bush Sr.’s nadir.

Stupid repuglicans, saying and believing dumb things.

I, for one, found it extremely "reassuring" that only three out of ten of the Republican candidates for president don't believe in evolution. And only nine out of ten said it would be a good day if Roe v Wade were repealed. Hey, it could have been worse.

Wolfowitz tries to hold onto his job.

Former Bank Official: Wolfowitz Erred

Actually it's not inexplicable at all.

I really wonder whether his failure to distinguish between necessary toughness and catastrophically shoot-ourselves-(America)-in-our-foot pigheadedness results from biological anomaly. His inability to harvest experience, and so to think and form successful judgements, is just so inexplicable".

Can't you just smell the suffering?

Yes folks - when it comes to Iraq, no-one suffers more than George and Laura Bush.

"Mission Accomplished?"

Karl Rove will have them arrested shortly, their tax files reviewed and place under surveillance as domestic terrorist.

Dick Cheney's shawdow intel team forged the Niger documents

TUCKER: So the Vice President you believe forged — now if the Vice President was behind that forgery, don't you think he would have done a better job?

MCGOVERN: I don't think he and Lynn, you know, sat down and did it. I think they farmed it out to a cottage industry of former intelligence agents that did a rather amateurish job.

White House, Gonzales Ordered All Of DoJ Politicized

White House posed a serious threat to the integrity of the criminal-justice system because it gave Sampson, Goodling, and the White House control over the hiring of senior officials in the Justice Department's Criminal Division, which oversees all politically sensitive public corruption cases, at the same time that they held authority to hire and fire U.S. attorneys.

Election night 2004: Repugs simple redirect official government traffic t RNC servers and changed the vote count for Dear Leader.

The web redirection on Election Night of 2004 went a step beyond this: Not only did the official website of the Ohio Department of State look just right, but it had the right address: http://election.sos.state.oh.us . Any citizen or press service looking for real time election results from the state of Ohio would have been directed here. In every sense, this SMARTech site became the official vote tabulation for the state of Ohio.

You know? We're glad this POS is dead too...

More than anyone, this man was responsible for the entrenchment of the existing distribution system that now exists to promote major product to the exclusion of all others. He and his team used the MPAA to shore up the studios at the expense of independent producers. They did it using the cover of dopey housewives and petulant industry washouts as "reviewers" while always being overseen and manipulated by studio industry tentacles.
