(4 comments) The rise and imminent fall of the GOP has sparked interest in the study of 'evil' --an interest that might have been inspired by Dr. Gustav Gilbert's interviews of Nazi war criminals and Hanah Arendt's studies of Adolph Eichmann. Today --the object of such study is George W. Bush.

The Un-American Lies of Antonin Scalia
(4 comments) Justice Scalia spends more time giving TV interviews that considering the 'rule of law'. His decisions are dubious, transparently based upon prejudice --not law. His 'thinking' in Bush v Gore was fallacious and had nothing whatsoever to do with 'law'. Time for Scalia to be retired!

Why were 'first responders' de-contaminated at the Pentagon?
(97 comments) Pentagon 'first responders' were 'decontaminated' at the Pentagon. The presence of 'depleted uranium' would explain it. If DU was present at the Pentagon, then 911 was most certainly an 'inside job'!

'Genocide by design?' Bush Administration Plans to 'Stay' in Iraq for the Oil
Even before the US attack and invasion, the Bush administration was laying the groundwork for one of his most pernicious lies: that the US is opposed in Iraq by terrorists. It was and remains a lie. The opposition to the US 'occupation' is, in fact, legitimate. It is the right of every people to defend a homeland against an aggressor . The US, under Bush, is a terrorist nation and outlaw.

Bush's Conspiracy to Create an American Police State: Part I, Police States Begin With False Flag Attacks
(20 comments) John Dean makes this chilling point: Nixon, at the height of the Watergate scandal, toyed with the idea of defying the high court, but, in the end thought better of it and resigned. Bush/Cheney, by contrast, won't budge amid declarations that whatever may be alleged against them, they can, themselves "authorize" it and make it legal –even after the fact. If this holds, the US is now in a dictatorship --a police state!

Imminent Arrest of Americans for War Crimes?
(1 comments) The Bush administration began working to make legal 'war crimes' long before '911' or the wars of aggression in Afghanistan and Iraq. Legislation sponsored by Tom DeLay would have authorized Bush to attack the Hague should any American find themselves on trial there. Only someone planning to commit war crimes would contemplate such action. It should have been a clue to Bush intentions to wage war for oil.

Bush Lies About 911: A Primer

Gulag Nation: Over One in One Hundred Americans Are in Prison

The Three Irrefutable Facts That Shatter Bush's Official 911 Theory
(17 comments) Self-described skeptic Michael Shermer has fallen for the most outlandish conspiracy theory of them all. The gullible Shermer even denies that it IS a mere theory and has yet to cite a a shred of verifiable evidence in support of it.

Why the CIA is the World's Number One Terrorist Organization
(5 comments) If the CIA is not solely responsible for America's declining prestige, it is among the biggest contributors to the trend. The CIA does not merely inspire terrorist responses, it indulges them itself. The CIA is a terrorist organiation.

Bhutto Knew Too Much About Bin Laden, 911, the CIA
(4 comments) Bhutto's assassination by gun men was a pre-emptive strike! She might have exposed the CIA as the World's number one terrorist organization. Pakistan Dictator Pervez Musharraf, Bush's man in Pakistan, blames the victim. In some perverted sense, he may be right.

Sunday, January 6, 2008
Why Musharraf Lies About the Assassination of Benazir Bhutto
Benazir Bhutto's murderers were not smart. If their motive was to shut her up, they failed. Before her death, she blamed US policy for creating world wide terrorism. She was right and paid with her life for it.

Friday, January 4, 2008
Another Inconvenient Truth: Bin Laden is Dead
(18 comments) Benazir Bhutto did not misspeak when she said that Osama bin Laden was dead. The implications of a dead Osama are stunning. For one --it means the Bush administration is criminally fraudulent and treasonous.

Friday, January 4, 2008
Fox News/New York Times: "Bin Laden is Dead"
(10 comments) Even Fox news reported Bin Laden's death --but apparently forgot it. The New York Times, on the other hand, has re-published it's original Osama obit of year the 2002.

BBC Censored Benazir Bhutto's Reports that Bin Laden Had Been Murdered
(10 comments) The BBC "censored" portions of Benazir Bhutto's interview with David Frost. Left out was Bhutto's revelation that Bin Laden had been murdered. The "War on Terror" is, therefore, a big fraud!

Americans Discovering Themselves in Europe
(8 comments) It is an American tradition to leave America, a trend perhaps begun with the "expulsion" of Tories during the Revolutionary war. The famous "lost generation" congregated in Paris between the wars. Latter-day "expatriates" are still trying to rediscover in Europe those parts not nurtured back home in Indiana.

With Bush in their pocket, the Carlyle Group buys the "Birth Certificate of Democracy" --the Magna Carta
(4 comments) The Magna Carta, called the "Birth Certificate of Democracy", has been bought at auction by a founder of the anti-Democracy Carlyle Group. Is nothing sacred? Isn't owning Bush enough?

How the GOP Abuses Language to Cloak its Criminal Political Agenda
(4 comments) The "Orwellian" use of language by Bush and the GOP amounts to lying. Torture, for example, is not "harsh interrogation". It's bloody torture, often murder.

Pro Torture GOP Protects Bush, Blocks Torture Ban, Supports Bush Torture Policies

GOP Front-Runners Run Out of Wiggle Room
(6 comments) While Bush's approval ratings drop back down to his all time low, the GOP front runners are in a hog fight over scraps. The GOP hasn't gotten the memo. It is a party completely out of touch.

CIA Obstruction of Justice Designed to Shield George W. Bush?

Lippmann: 'Brains are suspect in the Republican Party'
The GOP war against Iraq is not only a party albatross, it is a moral crisis for this and future generations. The disillusionment in its wake will be compared to that following WWI.

The Origins of America's World Wide Image Problem in Bush's Embrace of the 'Science of Lying'
(4 comments) US Prestige abroad is racing the buck for the bottom and for the same reason. No one trusts Bush on policy; fewer trust the dollar in a crunch. The worst collapse has already occurred: US credibility.

A Tale of Two Tyrants
Bush and Putin have much in common, primarily, dictatorship. Ironically, Russians support Putin because they think he won't rule Russian like Bush rules America. They are as wrong about Putin as the GOP was wrong aboutBush.

Why the GOP lies about the economy

How the Right Wing Embraces and Promotes "Magical Thinking"
(3 comments) How the Right Wing Embraces and Promotes "Magical Thinking" The GOP is a like a bowler with a lucky shirt, an angler with a lucky lure. Every failure is wiped out with a single, coincidental success that will forever be attributed to magic. Bush's career is best described as a series of inexplicable coincidences. Truly magical!

How Bush's GOP Embraced the 'Science of Lying'
Highly paid consultants taught Bush officials the new science of effective lying at the outset of Bush's new regime. It is no coincidence that new studies show US prestige declining as the world learns the truth about Bush's hidden agenda. Bush "spin" in response keeps a lot of "consultants" employed. It's a dirty job, but the GOP persists in doing it.

America begins slide into third world status
(13 comments) It coincides with the rising price of oil and the falling price of bucks. Three GOP administrations, Reagan, Bush Sr., Bush Jr., have presided over three pernicious trends: a falling dollar, the US loss of manufacturing preeminence, the decline of the US domestic oil industry.

Bush Risks World War III with Russia, China and Iran

Boxer: "The Biggest Foreign Policy Mistake --EVER!"

Oil Junkies for Jesus vs the Oil Crisis

Declaring our Independence of a Tyrannical Government
This day --July 4th --is forever associated with American independence because Thomas Jefferson had so eloquently declared it. What is often overlooked is the fact that Jefferson declared, in writing, the write of the people to abolish tyrannical governments.

Bush Crimes That Will Get Him Impeached, Tried, Removed and Tried Again as a Common Criminal
(8 comments) Watergate leftovers in the Bush administration learned all the wrong lessons. Dick Cheney, for example, learned how to stonewall, lie and obstruct justice. Outright treason he left to underlings who would take the fall for him. More ominously, however, these "leftovers" learned how to pull off a coup d'etat.

When the GOP Changes the Subject, "...the implications are deadly for the people of the United States"

Terrorism is Worse Under GOP Regimes
(1 comments) The GOP would have you believe that they are tougher on defense and "terrorism" than are Democrats. It's another lie. The GOP has lost every "war on terrorism" that it presumed to fight.

Thursday, May 3, 2007
The Movement to Impeach Bush/Cheney May be Unstoppable
(2 comments) Articles of Impeachment against Dick Cheney have already been introduced. Bush, on the defensive on every front, is more vulnerable than ever. Rather than pressuring congress, his recent veto has backfired. Bush is under fire from the "commanders" that he claims he listens to.

A Scapegoat Fights Back
George Tenet has gone public with a book and a media blitz. Every author has an axe to grind, but Tenet is in a position to blow Bush's cover on a number of issues from phony WMD to a phony war on terror.

Bush is on a Mission from God
(41 comments) Many if not most fundamentalist Christians have believed for some time now that Bush is on a mission from God. Typically, Bush encourages this belief. There is evidence that like all cults, the GOP, communicates to its base in code words designed to assuage the base and dupe the rest of us.

Bush loses Iraq amid "polite" back bench rebellion
It is doubtful that the "Irag Study Group" will effect any meaningful change with regard to a war already lost. Some congressional Republicans, however, may join Democrats to cut Iraq funding unless Bush changes course.

Bush loses control of policy, Iraq, and America's soul
Winston Churchill wrote that the statesman who yields to war fever...is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events. Bush has succumbed to war fever, losing control of policy and events. More troops merely repeats a failed strategy.

Bush lost the war on terrorism because he dare not win it
(3 comments) Terrorism is the only issue Bush polls well on; without it, he's finished. He dare not win this perpetual, Orwellian war.

Human Dignity Lessons for George W. Bush who was planning -before 911 -to commit war crimes abroad
(1 comments) Bush would have us to believe that he doesn't understand the phrase "outrages upon human dignity". In fact, months before 911, the GOP Congress was plotting to authorize a US attack on the Hague if US troops were charged with war crimes. Was Bush planning aggressive war, war crimes, atrocities?

Thursday, September 14, 2006
Bush's Orwellian campaign of deception, distraction, and linguistic legerdemain
Bush, at last, admitted to the very secret "torture" facilities that his administration had repeatedly denied. This flip flop, however, has ominous implications for a US regime that it increasingly linked with two words: war crimes!

Hezbollah will rebuild Southern Lebanon faster than Bushco will rebuild New Orleans
(2 comments) Hezbollah beats Bushco on yet another front. Hezbollah is at work rebuilding Southern Lebanon. Bushco, by contrast, still presides over a a never-ending disaster: New Orleans in the wake of Katrina.

Americans are paying for Bush's war of aggression at the bank, the store, the pump, and the graveside!
The Iraq war may wind up costing several trillion dollars. All but a tiny elite -Bush's hardcore base of the very rich -will not only avoid paying for the war, they will be enriched by it. It's all a right wing scam.

Sunday, August 20, 2006
The Enemy Within
(7 comments) Terrorism is a real threat but no more so than the dangerous and deliberate exploitation of it. Clearly -the subversion of Democratic ideals is a clear and present danger but no more so than home grown subversion by demagogues. Psychologist Carl Jung may have predicted a time when "incipient psychotics" might succumb to a fascist regime that exploits our fears and prejudices.

How the Military/Industrial complex turned America into Murder, Inc.
(1 comments) The GOP exploits hate and fear because terrorism is essential to the very existence of the Military/Industrial complex. Terrorism can only be exploited in an atmosphere of irrational and endemic hatred.

Tuesday, August 15, 2006
Terrorism has been worse under GOP regimes since 1980
The Bush Administration is a study in failure, waste, and needless death. The idea that the GOP is stronger on the issue of terrorism is, therefore, ludicrous. FBI stats, meanwhile, support the assertion that GOP policies make terrorism worse. Where would Bush be without the spector of 911?

All the bad news has come true

US middle east policy: "...a blood soaked failure"!
(2 comments) The Israeli attack on Lebanon has knocked Iraq off the front pages but it doesn't help Bush. Instead of distracting Americans, the spreading chaos is Bush's new tar baby.

How George Bush Became a Dictator
(3 comments) John Dean makes this chilling point: Nixon, he says, toyed with the idea of defying the high court, but, in the end resigned. Bush/Cheney won't budge. They have already declared that whatever may be alleged against them, they can, themselves "authorize" it. Bush has assumed the power to interpret the Supreme Court and, in a crisis, he will defy the court. The American republic is over.

Israel Commits War Crimes in Lebanon
(2 comments) Is Bush using the Israeli bombardment of Lebanon to divide the so-called "progressive" movement in the US? If so, he will have also provided some "cover" for Israeli war crimes in Lebanon and his own in Iraq.

How American conservatives became dangerous radicals
(2 comments) The modern American conservative movement has departed radically from an original vision of Barry Goldwater. The roots of this radicalization are found in ruthlessness and power for its own sake.

Bush plays politics with human life
(14 comments) Though Bush has presided over the deaths of thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians, he vetos the best hope of saving millions of Americans from an early death. This is unconscionable and evil but to be expected from the increasingly radical, extremist GOP.

Israel and Lebanon: How Bush lost his mojo
(1 comments) Having given tacit approval to an "over-reaction" by Ehud Olmert, the Bush administration compromises its traditional role of "honest broker". Without dialoague or leverage, Bush is not only out of the loop, he may even be on the wrong side.

The Rumsfeld Doctrine: Easy Victories on the Cheap!
According to the Globe and Mail, Masked Shia gunmen stopped cars in western Baghdad, grabbed people off the streets, singled out the Sunni Arabs among them and then killed some 37 of them. Several weeks since the Bush celebrated the death of Zarqawi, it is clear: the US is involved in a civil war in Iraq.

A Declaration of our Independence
Patriotism is not mindless flag waving. The "Patriots" who found this nation wagered their very lives on a some basic concepts that the Bush administration now threatens from within.

Sunday, July 2, 2006
The GOP tries to let Bush off the hook, to make legal crimes he's already committed!
Every time Bush is caught breaking the law, the GOP moves to make his crime "legal". It's a neat but dangerous trick, which, in fact, subverts the rule of law.

Deflating Big Brother by Debunking Right Wing Lies, Myths, and Propaganda
I've never understood how the Religious Right manages it. How can followers of the "Prince of Peace" support the cold-blooded murder of innocent civilians in a war of naked aggression?

How America lost its moral authority throughout the world
(3 comments) The Bush administration had planned to perpetrate torture even before it ordered the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq; and it sought to exempt U.S. troops from international prosecutions. In the process, the United States has lost whatever moral authority it might have exerted throughout the world.

Tuesday, June 13, 2006
Bush is killing and torturing innocent people because he has neurotic, personal problems with "Daddy"
Bush had planned to attack and invade Iraq even before the election of 2000. It didn't matter that Iraq didn't have "weapons of mass destruction". Bush had a score to settle. With "Daddy".

Forget the Iraq civil war; the U.S. cultural war rages on
Recent back to back outrages by Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly remind one Pat Buchanan who declared war on a majority of Americans back in 1992. He called it a "cultural war". It's been raging ever since.

You know you're living in a dictatorship when public opinion becomes irrelevant
When Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said recently that journalists could be prosecuted for espionage, it was clear that an official crackdown on truth telling is one of several defining characteristics of a police state. There is yet another equally reliable sign of dictatorship: public opinion doesn't mean a thing!

The Method and the Madness of King George
For the first time in American history, armed federal agents of the executive branch of the government executed a raid on Congress and spent hours "rifling through papers" and removing materials that they alone deemed necessary to an investigation. Is this just a part of Bush's mad plan?

Why George W. Bush's regime is Anti-American
Bush is on the wrong side of America's very founding, the wrong side of American history. He's at the other end of the scale with J.S. Mill, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison on the one end —Hegel, Hitler and Stalin on the other.

Bush's biggest fraud: the phony war on terrorism!
(3 comments) Until recently, George W. Bush could bludgeon dissenters with the issue of terrorism. But as "terrorism" becomes another issue on which Bush is taking a beating in the polls, an increasing number of writers and readers are questioning the very nature of Bush's perpetual war.

A constitutional crisis in the making
(3 comments) At the very heart of a looming constitutional crisis is the lie Bush told about the extent of widespread domestic Surveillance by the NSA.

How George Bush Stole Christmas and Lost Camelot!
(3 comments) The election of Ronald Reagan ushered in a dark age of high unemployment, job outsourcing, huge federal debts and deficits, the doubling of the Federal Bureaucracy. A tentative recovery under an imperfect Democratic President has been undone by Bush. Can America find its way back?

Hayden will Militarize the CIA!
Gen. Michael Hayden's role in Bush's warrantless domestic spying program should disqualify him from taking over the CIA. Rather than repair the CIA's soiled reputation, Hayden at the helm could finish it off.

GOP Pollster: "This administration may be over!"
Republican pollsters have seen the handwriting in the polls if not the wall. As the movement toward impeachment grows, Democrats may be willing to let Bush take down the GOP.

Reasons given for Goss resignation are but lipstick on a pig!
Do you fell safer knowing that Bush appointed Porter Goss in order to politicize the CIA? Were we supposed to feel safer with a GOP watchdog making sure intelligence professionals were telling Bush what he wanted to hear?

A little noted victim of Bush's tyranny: the individual conscience
(2 comments) A constitutional crisis looms. Bush refuses to enforce provisions of some 750 statutes and, in other instances, adds "signing statements" invariably at odds with the intentions of congress. Bush insists that he has the right to decide which laws are Constitutional and which are not. Just as important, however, are inumerable crises of conscience as citizens are forced to choose between what is right and what is Bush.

You know you're living in a dictatorship when telling the truth becomes a crime
As Bush descends into ratings hell, his "absolutist" rhetoric is ratcheted up. Math buffs would say the two are inversely proportional. Even as he descended into the "30's", Bush and his Bushevik regime were defending "Stalinesque" rule with words like "unitary executive","inherent powers", and "executive privilege." Now Bush wants to prosecute reporters for telling the truth about his failed administration.

Bush didn't attack Iraq so that you could have cheap gasoline!
Anyone expecting lower gasoline prices to result from war on Iraq have been betrayed. Given Bush's credibility and the behavior of oil oligopolies, however, such an expectation was naive.

The Cutting Edge of Chaos
(1 comments) Bush's war on Iran seems inevitable even as Bush's approval rating is in free fall. It is clear that should Bush push forward now, he does so without a mandate. His nation is not behind him. He will have become a rogue "President".

For Bush, the "State" is Absolute
Bush is credibly quoted as having called the Constitution "...a goddamned piece of paper!" More recently, he discounts other opinions because he and he alone is the "decider". Well...the "decider" is a fascist by definition.

The Bush Regime: A Cancer that Feeds on Itself
Bush's war on terrorism has not only failed —it's made the world a much more dangerous place. Iraqis were better off under Saddam and Americans are less safe in a world that is now motivated to develop their own nuclear weapons.

"Local Republicans Are Eating Each Other Alive"
That's how the situation is described in Tom DeLay's hometown of Sugar Land, TX. where a web site called "Juanita's" has been snapping at DeLay's heels and exposing his hijinks from the get go. So —don't fall for GOP nonsense about how those nasty old liberals like George Soros, Michael Moore and Barbra Streisand are ganging up on poor Tom.

How Bush "Liberated" Iraq
Since Persian Gulf War I, the people of Iraq have suffered from its residual effects and the ongoing deprivations of sanctions. Now when all the rationales for war have been proven to have been untrue, Bush is hard pressed to "define" a victory that he can declare. "Liberation" is not it!

U.S. Torture Policies Inspire International Outrage
It has become clear that the Bush administration continues a policy of torture that most certainly violates principles of international law insisted upon by the United States at the end of World War II. The world outside the beltway is very nearly unanimous that U.S torture is simply unacceptable.

How the Right Wing Screwed Up Our Language
The American right wing has waged war on American democracy on many fronts —the schools, the independent judiciary, the way we draw up congressional districts. Their most stunning victory is the most insidious: they've screwed up our language.

Bush Descends Into Hell
It's time to bring to an end an era of triangulation and hair splitting. Democratic hopes must address the concerns of a disillusioned and embittered electorate. It's time for a real opposition to step forward.

U.S. court rules our government can break international laws to carry out torture
A recent decision by a federal court is bad news for anti-torture activists. The decision raises serious doubts that a program of torture can be restrained via the courts. The decision seemingly abrogates what had been a judicial prerogative —the very concept of judicial review. It raises a grave question: in what other way can torture be ended?
