Image of Terrorism

So, in this view, terrorism is civilian on civilian and/or civilian on military.

However, if military on civilian, it's a war crime or oppression.

Hmmm. Shouldn't they be treated the same, then?

Bush: I'm the commander guy

Two favorite comedy bits of mine as a kid growing up were Chris Elliott's portrayals of "the fugitive guy" and "the man under the seats" on David Letterman's late night talk show.

That was comedy and silly.

This is just silly: Bush made the following statement yesterday after having vetoed the war funding bill passed by Congress:

The question is, who ought to make that decision, the Congress or the commanders? As you know, my position is clear – I’m the commander guy.

President George W. Bush is a joke. If it weren't for the thousands of deaths and injuries for which he's responsible, I'd say this whole "Global War on Terror" (GWOT) is just one big joke.

Bush "sympathetic" to Tillman family?!

As if he didn't know. It's amazing that anybody buys this crap anymore. Giving the prez the benefit of the doubt, the question becomes even more difficult: If Bush didn't know, why not?

You mean to tell me Donald Rumsfeld was not honest and forthcoming with the President of the United States?

Tillman, Lynch: On the Hill to dispel the legends

Pat Tillman's mom and brother testified before Congress yesterday, as did Jessica Lynch. All went to great lengths to discount (dare I say, "call the Bush administration liars") the stories behind the sensationalism surrounding Lynch's rescue and Tillman's death by friendly fire.

It's one thing to keep things secret while an investigation is going on. But the measures, extreme measures, the Army took in covering up the story behind Tillman's death is beyond anything any of us civilians could imagine. They almost immediately cut off Internet and phone service (standard procedure) as well as ordering everybody to keep mum about it. Then they made up a story and sold it to the public.

Same with Lynch.

The Republicans claim that they are "true Americans." This doesn't seem like an American thing to do: Make up heroes and lie about it.

US Justice Dept fires US Attorney for his military duty

I don't know if the Bush administration is stupid, incompetent, unaware, or just full of shit. It may be all of this. These guys, who got us into the GWOT (Global War on Terror), fired a US Attorney for not doing his job. Problem is, his military duty called him away from his job!



Since modern science, which Bush and his loyalists are loathe to listen to, hasn't figured out a way for a person to be in two places at once, David Iglesias, the U.S. attorney in New Mexico, fired for being an "absentee landlord," chose to comply with his military obligation (or face AWOL charges, discharge, prison, etc.).



Bush and his idiot administration are seriously the most hideous of presidential administrations in memory.
