Scott McClellan's Residual Affection for Bush (the Psychopath?) One shouldn't be surprised to learn that Bush held fast to the possibility of achieving greatness through war. Scott McClellan has confirmed Bush's opinion that "only a wartime president is likely to achieve greatness."

Is the United States of America Addicted to War? Based upon both the number of wars involving America, as well as the number of its unnecessary wars, one must ask whether America is addicted to war.

America's Occupation Trumps the "Surge" and Petraeus' Counterinsurgency Manual As Professor Truman Cross has concluded: It is a foolish and disastrous assumption that the government of the United States should learn how to fight anti-colonial wars against peoples who will keep fighting until the Americans and all other foreigners are gone--and then get down to the business of fighting for whatever territory is up for grabs.

To Understand Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Recall Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn Fortunately Rev. Wright does not live in Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's Soviet Union of the early 1970s. Otherwise he would have found himself banished from the country, not just the political campaign, for the moral thunderbolts he hurled at the state.

Allegations of "Elitism" Also Brought Down America's Founding Fathers Allegations of "elitism" against America's Founding Fathers sent the country down the path of commerce and personal gain. Similar attacks on Barack Obama appear designed to defend this questionable status quo.

"Symbolic Racism" and the "US of KKK A" My brief, two-part, introduction to "Racism 101" should persuade you that Rev. Jeremiah Wright's utterance about present-day racism is no more outrageous than are the smug, self-serving beliefs of symbolic racists who maintain that "discrimination is no longer an obstacle for blacks, that their current lack of upward social mobility is caused by their unwillingness to work hard, that the

Hannity, Clinton, Obama, Rev. Wright and "Racism 101" Rev. Jeremiah Wright had nothing on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Thomas Jefferson when he responded to America's despicable history of slavery and racism by proclaiming "God Damn America."

My Protest to the Times: "Effete Warmonger Kristol/Sanitizing Five Years in Iraq" William Kristol committed another sourcing blunder when accusing Barack Obama. Worse, the Times has attempted to shift legitimate opinion toward acceptance of a large and permanent force in the Middle East.

Bacon's Rebellion and Hillary's Wink and a Nod to Pennsylvania's "Racially Sensitive" Voters Controlling lower- and working-class whites through appeals to their "racial sensitivities" has a long, sordid history in America. It should have no place in Pennsylvania's Democratic primary campaign.

The Myth of McCain's Impeccable National Security Credentials As long as the mainstream news media continue to fawn over John McCain and portray his interventionism not as the radicalism it is, but as evidence of strong credibility on national security, they enhance his chances of becoming President and, thus, the chances of more Americans perishing needlessly on foreign soil.

Obama's Populism versus McCain's Free Trade Even before the ethics questions just raised by the New York Times, John McCain was hardly the presidential candidate to roll back widespread corporate socialism.

The Psychopath's "State of the Union": Disguising America's Deep Humiliation "Nobody wants to be dependent on an America that talks loudly about how indispensable it is, yet stages coups, makes threats, overthrows governments, democratic or not, and kills many of the world's poorest people, to the amusement of some generals." [pp. 388-89]. Such is the state of our union.

For Bush and McCain, Iraqis are merely "ropes for American dirty laundry" Like the quislings in the Green Zone that the Bush administration installed via so-called "democratic elections," the Awakening forces are coming to be seen as mere "ropes for American dirty laundry." Not just the dirty laundry of Bush's sordid invasion and McCain's myopic cheerleading, but also the dirty laundry of American Exceptionalism.

"Mission Accomplished," "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job," and now "There will be a signed peace treaty..." Bush's prediction -- "There will be a signed peace treaty by the time I leave office." -- is pure bullshit. Bullshit that ranks right up there with "Mission Accomplished," and "Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job."

William Kristol, the New York Times and Nazi Gunter d'Alquen In post-war Germany, the former editor of the Nazi paper, Das Schwarze Korps, was put on trial and convicted for his earlier pro-war propaganda. In Bush's Amerika, a propagandist for our illegal, immoral war against Iraq lands a job at the New York Times.
