Article by missy on October 20th, 2008 at 10:48 am Yes, we hear that the rate of casualties among coalition forces has now exceeded those in Iraq, but we have heard nothing like this from the MSM. We have to get it from Rolling Stone: By the time we reach the town of Salar, only 50 miles south of Kabul, we have already passed five tractor-trailers from military convoys that have been destroyed by the [...]
Article by missy on September 24th, 2008 at 11:36 am I thought at the time there was something hinky going on, but I didn’t know the specifics about this until Mike Malloy mentioned it last night: The exposure of New York State Governor Eliot Spitzer’s tryst with a luxury call girl had little to do with the Bush administration’s high moral standards for public servants… Timing suggests that Spitzer was likely a target of a White [...]
Article by John on July 9th, 2008 at 11:44 am Apologies to Cenk for copying his whole post below but this cluster f@#k is too important to ignore: The Republicans and Barack Obama Are Going to Give Into the Terrorists The Republicans, and most of the Democrats, are about to surrender some of our rights.

Our desire is to create a very full and human [...]
Article by John on March 29th, 2008 at 8:55 am Good article over at OpEd News about the state of our country. An analogy of our current state of affairs comes to mind of the spouse (i.e. we Americans) who refuses to acknowledge that his/her mate is unfaithful (i.e. our government’s illegal and immoral Iraq occupation and the lies supporting the occupation). The cuckolded spouse makes up all kinds of excuses and rationalizations [...]
Article by missy on October 10th, 2007 at 10:45 am Bush this morning on FISA: In August, Congress passed the Protect America Act, a bill to modernize the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978… Since this important measure took effect, our intelligence professionals have been able to gather critical information that would have been missed without this authority. And keeping this authority is essential to keeping America safe. That would be great and all,* if they weren’t [...]
Article by Rich on October 10th, 2007 at 7:55 am Leak Severed a Link to Al-Qaeda’s Secrets Firm Says Administration’s Handling of Video Ruined Its Spying Efforts A small private intelligence company that monitors Islamic terrorist groups obtained a new Osama bin Laden video ahead of its official release last month, and around 10 a.m. on Sept. 7, it notified the Bush administration of its secret acquisition.
