Soon after a jury convicted Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK) on seven felony charges, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) called on Stevens to resign from the U.S. Senate. “Alaskans are grateful for his decades of public service but the time has come for him to step aside,” she said in a statement. But days later, when asked if she would vote for Stevens, Palin refused to answer. Now, Palin is backtracking on whether Stevens should resign:
Asked Wednesday whether she still believed that Mr. Stevens should resign, Ms. Palin was circumspect, saying only that the people of Alaska “just spoke” on the issue at the ballot box and that “they want him as their senator.” She said Mr. Stevens should decide “what happens next.” (Mr. Stevens could still be forced to step down, and Ms. Palin is widely viewed as a potential candidate for his seat if he does.)Soon after a jury convicted Sen.

Kristol Floats Revived ‘Project For A New American Century’ To Support Neocons In The Wilderness»
kristol.jpgIn 1997, Bill Kristol and Robert Kagan co-founded the Project for a New American Century, a neoconservative organization meant “to promote American global leadership” through “military strength and moral clarity.” The organization, whose statement of principles was signed by right-wing luminaries such as Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Paul Wolfowitz, is largely credited with putting America on the path to a preventative invasion of Iraq.
In an interview with Hugh Hewitt yesterday, Kristol said that he would like to set up a similar organization to operate during an Obama presidency:
HH: And I think he will be very concerned with the two issues I’m going to raise with you – national security and immigration. Now I believe the Committee On the Present Danger filled a need in the 70s which we need to reorganize an equivalent now. But what do you think, Bill Kristol?
BK: Oh, I agree, and we did a little of that in the 90s with the Project For the New American Century. And I actually think there are people talking about this. And there’s a lot of good foreign policy and defense thinking on our side, the Fred Kagans and Bob Kagans and Reuel Gerechts of the world, Victor Davis Hanson, et cetera. But a little bit of a political organization for them wouldn’t be bad. And I think we should support Obama, incidentally, if he does the right thing.
Listen here:
Not surprisingly, two of the conservative foreign policy thinkers mentioned by Kristol, Bob Kagan and Reuel Gerecht, were employed by the original PNAC. Fred Kagan and Victor Davis Hanson are currently at the American Enterprise Institute and the Hoover Institution, respectively.Kristol Floats Revived ‘Project For A New American Century’ To Support... more

KBR / CHENEY / HALLIBURTON POCKET THE MONEY & KILL AMERICANS WITH NEGLIGENCE * "A Senate panel investigating the electrocutions of Americans on bases in Iraq was told last week by former KBR Inc. electricians that the contractor used employees with little electrical expertise to supervise subcontractors in Iraq and hired foreigners who couldn't speak English. The Pentagon has said 13 Americans have been electrocuted in Iraq since September 2003."
GENERAL ACCUSES BUSH ADMIN OF WAR CRIMES * Major General Anthony Taguba concluded that "numerous incidents of sadistic, blatant, and wanton criminal abuses were inflicted on several detainees." He called the abuse "systemic and illegal." And, as Seymour M. Hersh reported in the New Yorker, he was rewarded for his honesty by being forced into retirement.
WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE ?
* ARE WE AMERICANS TRULY SAVAGES ? By Robert Scheer * Are we Americans truly savages or merely tone-deaf in matters of morality, and therefore more guilty of terminal indifference than venality? It's a question demanding an answer in response to the publication of the detailed 370-page report on U.S. complicity in torture, issued last week by the Justice Department's inspector general.

"We have become a monster in the eyes of the whole world – a nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us… No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we’ll kill you." – Hunter S. Thompson

Just as they had rather report on the trials and tribulations of troubled entertainer, Brittany Spears, instead of reporting anything bad that happens in Washington or Iraq, FAUX "News" Channel's inimitable Bill O'Reilly was recently caught in another of his oral blunders. (He is so often skewered by his inflated ego and his penchant for lying about not spinning things that Keith Olbermann's nickname for him is Bill Orally.)
Watch here as Andrea Mackris' one time wannabe shower-mate again gets himself in trouble by spinning out of control in a zone he has untruthfully-named the "No Spin Zone".
I laugh every time I see FAUX "News" use their ill-gotten slogan of "Fair and Balanced". Then, when they add, "We report. You decide." It makes me mumble, "We Report Rubbish. You Decide If You Want to Take the Bait", under my breath.
I guess there are enough people who have never bothered to check on his objectivity or read about the Andrea Mackris lawsuit that apparently lists, word for word, his recorded sexual suggestions to her over the phone. One such particularly graphic page in the lawsuit she filed is here: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/1013043mackris14.html
Without further ado, I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions about whether you'd want your children to read his latest book targeting young readers. ("The O'Reilly Factor for Kids: A Survival Guide for America's Families") I wonder how a girl young enough to be his daughter, Andrea Mackris, would have been counseled in the book.
This piece exposes another in his long line of completely moronic O'Reilly Factor statements.
At least Michael Savage's sponsors are leaving him in droves after actually having their attention called to the hate and venom spewed by Savage a.k.a. Weiner on his program "The Savage Nation." I just wish Orally's sponsors would place spots on the "Factor" based on its truthfulness rather than its popularity with the Kool-Aid drinkers who actually believe what they see on the FAUX "News" Channel. Just as they had rather report on the trials and tribulations of troubled entertainer,... more

McCain's poll numbers indicate he can beat everybody but Edwards. Alas, we've allowed the media to again hold the gun while we've unceremoniously shot ourselves in the foot once more. Can Gore enter the race and bring in Edwards or can Edwards "un-suspend" his campaign?
If not, we are in for another four years of "Reaganomics"! However, the "trickle down" to ordinary Americans will be as scarce as rainwater in McCain's home state.McCain's poll numbers indicate he can beat everybody but Edwards. Alas,... more
