A McCain Iraq Chronology in Question
In an interview Tuesday night with Katie Couric, Senator John McCain scolded Senator Barack Obama for getting his history wrong. But it appears that Mr. McCain might himself have inaccurately described the timing of a scene-changing development in Iraq.
Mr. McCain has been critical of Mr. Obama for refusing to acknowledge that the troop buildup had stabilized conditions in Iraq. Rather, Mr. Obama credited the “awakening,” a movement of Sunni Iraqis patrolling their own neighborhoods to root out extremists and members of Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia. The initiative, backed by the United States, began in Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province, and has since spread throughout the country, including Baghdad.

Challenges for the Next Green President
Here is just a spattering of what awaits the next Administration:
– Climate Change. Throughout our nation’s history, for all pieces of crucial legislation (the 1933 National Recovery Act, the 1964 Civil Rights Act), there was a fleeting legislative moment. That moment is here for climate change. The scientific evidence is overwhelming, the inter-generational impacts make action a moral imperative. Waiting is just not an option. The Bush Administration squandered the last decade. The Obama or McCain Administration cannot squander the next.
– Natural Resources. Where to start? The Bush White House declared open season on the nation’s resources. There was the Orwellian “Healthy Forest Initiative” that reduced wildlife protection, open contempt for the Endangered Species Act, repeal of the Roadless Rule protecting public lands, a U.S. Navy sonar assault on whales, and a “stream buffer rule” allowing Appalachian hilltop mining. Repair of these and many more offenses will require an Interior Secretary of historical significance (think Gifford Pinchot).
– Public Health. OSHA has been decimated, with only one new standard issued in eight years. Permissible exposure levels for numerous contaminants were weakened in the workplace, drinking water and air. We had lead in toys, formaldehyde in trailers, and biphenyl in baby bottles - as well as pathogens in our spinach, lettuce, beef, and now tomatoes. Most American public health statutes are woefully outdated and in need of complete overhaul, starting with the Toxics Substances Control Act (”TSCA”).
– Water. From Georgia to California, climate change is bringing increased drought and water shortages (and ironically, elsewhere flooding). T. Boone Pickens is now buying up most of the aquifers north of Dallas for good reason. Salmon and other fish are disappearing in droves (if fish travel in droves). In cities, the most favored solution to drinking water shortages seems to be recycling sewer water - shades of Solvent Green. Current water policies, such as providing subsidized irrigation water to agri-business giants, need fundamental reform.
– Global Reach. The greatest environmental threats at home now are from abroad. Nearly half the mercury in Midwestern lakes comes from Chinese coal fire power plants. China’s global warming gas emissions now exceed the U.S. From food to pharmaceuticals, imported consumer products present unnecessary health risks. Through far more aggressive trade policies and tougher domestic laws — on what is allowed within our shores and within our stores — we can better protect both the planet and our own citizens.
This election season, there will be no ducking (no pun intended) the environment. Both Obama and McCain will be required to address — with specifics — how they will clean up the Bush mess - and, where they intend to lead the country. FDR had his New Deal in the 1930’s. What is the Obama or McCain Green Deal for 2008? Are their promises of change real or illusory?
If fate and the voters give us President McCain, one hopes for the leadership of Republican Teddy Roosevelt, not the “wink and nod” environmentalism of either Bush. If it’s President Obama, one hopes for the political skill of Lyndon Johnson — since that and more will be required to navigate the Washington, DC special interest thicket. The essential question both will need to answer was posed nearly a half century ago — by Rachel Carson: “Man’s attitude toward nature is today critically important simply because we now have acquired the fateful power to alter and destroy nature. The question is whether any civilization can wage relentless war on life without destroying itself.”

Physician chosen as Nepal's first president
Decision comes just months after centuries-old monarchy was abolished
Nepal's governing assembly on Monday elected the new republic's first president since it abolished the centuries-old monarchy in May, state-run television said.
Nepal Television said Constituent Assembly members elected Ram Baran Yadav, a physician from the Madheshi ethnic community in southern Nepal, which has been campaigning for greater rights and more say in the administration.
State-run television said an official announcement was expected later in the evening by assembly chairman Kul Bahadur Gurung. Yadav, of the Nepali Congress party, received more than half the votes in the 594-seat assembly that was required to win.
Yadav had the backing of his party, the Communist Party of Nepal (United Marxist-Leninist) and Madhesi People's Rights Forum — the second, third and fourth largest parties.
Yadav has served twice as the health ministry and elected twice in parliament elections. He has held senior positions in his Nepali Congress party.
Yadav had secured the most votes in initial voting for president on Saturday, but voting went to a second round because none of the three candidates were able to secure the required majority.
His closest opponent, Ramraja Singh, was backed by the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist), former communist rebels who have emerged as the largest political party in Nepal.
The Maoists won the most seats in the Constituent Assembly in April elections. Since the dissolution of the monarchy, the assembly has been unable to form a new government because the main parties have bickered over forming a ruling coalition.
The president will swear in the new prime minister, who will run the executive branch. Decision comes just months after centuries-old monarchy was abolished ... more -

Chavez may hug king, won't shut up
Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez said on Sunday he would like to give the king of Spain a hug when he visits Europe next week, but the outspoken leader, referring to a diplomatic spat last year, said he will not shut up.
King Juan Carlos sparked a furor in November by shouting "Why don't you shut up?" at Chavez when he tried to interrupt a speech by Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero at the Ibero-American summit in Chile.
Ties have improved since then and the Spanish government said last week that Chavez will meet the king on a visit to Spain next week.
"I'd like to give the king a hug, but you know, Juan Carlos, that I am not going to shut up," a smiling Chavez said on his weekly television show before setting of to Russia for the first leg of his tour.
"We will keep talking for ourselves, for a just and equal world," the left-wing president said.
The king's November outburst made headlines around the world, spawning songs, jokes and even a ringtone for mobile phones.
Chavez threatened to review diplomatic and business ties with Venezuela's former colonial power, a major investor in the region.

Karl Rove skips hearing for exotic getaway as directed by White House
While House Democrats fumed over the absence of Karl Rove from hearings investigating his possible interference in the Justice Department, the man himself was well on his way to the Yalta Black Sea resort, Newsweek reported Saturday.
"That's just extremely contemptuous—it shows the disdain that he has for Congress and which he has encouraged in the Bush White House," said Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee.
Rove had a speaking engagement at the fifth annual conference of the YES Foundation, which Newsweek describes as a "confab of world luminaries bankrolled by billionaire Victor Pinchuk, the Ukrainian steel magnate and son-in-law of the country's former autocratic president, Leonid Kuchma."
Rove's lawyer Robert Luskin defended his actions as justifiable given that White House counsel Fred Fielding instructed Rove not to show up because anything he said was protected by executive privilege.
"What was he supposed to do, sit at home with his lights off?" Luskin said in the article. Luskin added that this "was not something we concocted so he could make money in Yalta."
Speaking fees for Rove can be as high as $40,000, according to an article describing his controversial presence scheduled for a Texas Associated of Realtor convention this September.
Rove appeared on The O'Reilly Factor Wednesday to discount the Democrats demand for his presence: "They want a circus," he said.

O'REILLY: They gave you a little bit of a hard time, right?
ROVE: It wasn't that hard of a time. They were mostly polite. I could tell it was like Satan dropping in at the Southern Baptist Convention, they weren't exactly pleased to see me, but they were a little bit intrigued.

After his initial disappearance in early July, the House Judicial Committee voted 7-1 to reject the executive privilege Rove claimed protected him from being forced to testify.

You could vote for "None Of The Above" and have it count
Recently I wrote a page on why we should or should not vote at all based on my feelings that 99.9% of politicians are not qualified for the job and how for some time now our government system is actually more to blame than even the politicians. You can read about that here if you'd like:
http://current.com/items/89107141_voting_for_the_lesser...
Surprisingly to me I received a lot of flack for this story and was even accused of being a neo-con and actually supporting John McCain - this could not be further from the truth
However after writing the story I was made aware of an option to vote for "none of the above" and that vote actually counts as a vote, so if the NOTA vote gets the majority then none of the candidates win and there would need to be new candidates chosen to run for their hopeful office.
So... If a majority of people voted for "None of the Above" rather than "voting for the lesser of evils", it might force a situation where Voters would have to find someone competent to lead them. This sounds like a great idea to me and this would prevent candidates from being able to "play the game" and would make them really earn our trust. So... In any state with a binding "None of the Above" ballot option, the list of candidates for each office would be followed by the votable line "None of the Above; For a New Election", or something similar. If the that option gets more votes than any candidate for the office, then no one is elected to the office; instead, a follow-up by-election with new candidates must be held to fill that office, until a candidate wins a plurality of votes among all other candidates including "None of the Above."
Here's a run down of how it would look and also some links to petitions where you can get this into play in your own state and possibly in presidential elections as well where I think it is most needed.
Statement of Principle: All legitimate consent requires the ability to withhold consent; therefore, the legitimate consent of voters requires they be able to withhold their consent in an election to office.
Statement of Purpose: We are working to enact a Voter Consent law in all 50 states, preferably by adding after the candidate list for each elective office the following permanent line, or otherwise to assist in the enactment of Voter Consent Ballot Options.
Typical Current Ballot:
(Competitive Race) ~OR~ (Noncompetitive Race)
[ ] Candidate A [ ] Candidate A
[ ] Candidate B
Voter Options: Vote for a candidate. If voters do not like any (or the only) candidate for the office, they can either: 1) not vote; or, 2) vote for the least objectionable candidate, the so-called "lesser evil"; or, 3) write-in a name, in jurisdictions allowing it, the so-called "Mickey Mouse option."
Voter Consent Law's Ballot with Binding NOTA Option:
(Competitive Race) ~OR~ (Noncompetitive Race)
[ ] Candidate A [ ] Candidate A
[ ] Candidate B [ ] None of the Above; For a New Election
[ ] None of the Above; For a New Election
Voter Options: Vote for a candidate or "None of the Above; For a New Election". If "None of the Above; For a New Election" receives the most votes, no candidate is elected to that office and a follow-up by-election, with new candidates, is held. Note that even candidates running unopposed must obtain voter consent to be elected.
links to general info and petitions:
http://www.nota.org/writein.htm
http://nota.org/
Since nowhere close to all of US citizens vote I think this NOTA option would give everyone a reason to vote and instead of not voting or writing in Mickey Mouse their vote would actually count.
Currently Nevada is the only state to have a non-binding NOTA option on their ballot
Now what do you think? Recently I wrote a page on why we should or should not vote at all based on my feelings that 99.9% of politicians are not qualified fo... more -
Gramm quits as McCain campaign co-chair
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Former Republican Sen. Phil Gramm said Friday that he is stepping down as co-chairman of Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign amid criticism for saying last week that "we have sort of become a nation of whiners."
Phil Gramm, left, said his comments have become a "distraction" for Sen. John McCain's campaign.
Phil Gramm, left, said his comments have become a "distraction" for Sen. John McCain's campaign.
Gramm on Friday said he would "join the growing number of rank-and-file McCain supporters."
Democrats blasted Gramm for the comments, made in a Washington Times interview published July 10, and McCain forcefully repudiated the remarks.
In a written statement released Friday, Gramm said his comments had become a distraction for McCain.
"It is clear to me that Democrats want to attack me rather than debate Senator McCain on important economic issues facing the country," Gramm said.
"That kind of distraction hurts not only Senator McCain's ability to present concrete programs to deal with the country's problems, it hurts the country."
Gramm, who advised presumed Republican nominee McCain on economic matters, made the controversial comments while discussing the economy.
"We have sort of become a nation of whiners. You just hear this constant whining, complaining about a loss of competitiveness, America in decline," the former Texas senator said. Video Watch Gramm explain his comments »
"You've heard of mental depression; this is a mental recession."
McCain responded that day to the comments saying during a campaign stop: "I believe that the person here in Michigan who just lost his job isn't suffering from a mental recession. I believe the mother here in Michigan or around America who's trying to get enough money to educate their children isn't whining."
A day after making the comments, Gramm said he was referring to America's leaders, not the public.
He stood behind the "mental recession" comment, though, saying, "we don't have measured negative growth. That's a fact; that's not a commentary."
McCain's Democratic rival, Sen. Barack Obama, said Friday that news of Gramm stepping down makes little difference.
"The question for John McCain isn't whether Phil Gramm will continue as chairman of his campaign but whether he will continue to keep the economic plan that Gramm authored and that represents a continuation of the polices that have failed American families for the last eight years," Obama campaign spokesman Hari Sevugan said.

Obama had been quick to jump on Gramm's comments last week, saying Americans need more than "psychological relief."
"I think it's time we had a president who doesn't deny our problems or blame the American people for them but takes responsibility and provides the leadership to solve them," Obama said at a Virginia rally shortly after the comments were reported. "That's the kind of president I will be." WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Former Republican Sen. Phil Gramm said Friday that he is stepping down as co-chairman of Sen. John McCain's presid... more -
Birthday wishes pour in for Mandela
Messages of congratulations, tributes and good wishes are pouring in from home and abroad, from ordinary people and influential leaders alike for former South African president Nelson Mandela on his 90th birthday.
President Thabo Mbeki extended his message on behalf of the entire nation to the internationally revered statesman and former political prisoner on Friday.
"We are proud as South Africans that Mr Mandela and his generation of fighters embraced with both passion and reason the mission that history imposed on them and more than met the demands that it enjoined them to fulfil," he said in Pretoria on Friday.
Mbeki said South Africans glowed in the light of fame because the country stood on the shoulders of icons such as Mandela.
Harmony and equality
He recalled Mandela's statement at the opening of the defence case in the Rivonia Trial in the Pretoria Supreme Court on 20 April 1964: "I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities," Mandela said back then.
"It is an ideal which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die."
Mbeki urged the current generation to return to the question of their mission and how to fulfil it, as conditions and circumstances evolved, much in the same way that Mandela's generation had to discover and fulfil its mission.
"Finding answers to this question simultaneously as we celebrate his birthday is perhaps the biggest present we can give to Nelson Mandela," said Mbeki. "Many happy returns - ukhule ukhokhobe!"

Americans being electrocuted in Iraq 'on an almost daily basis'
Among the seemingly innumerable scandal-worthy stories which have so marked the war in Iraq is one growing tragedy which has been largely ignored: shoddy electrical work by U.S. contractors at military bases leading to numerous electrical fires, troops receiving painful shocks, and even death by electrocution.
In January 2008, Staff Sgt. Ryan Maseth, a 24-year-old weapons expert, was electrocuted while showering in Baghdad's green zone. According to a criminal investigation by the Army, an electrical water pump on the building's roof shorted out from not being properly grounded when installed. On March 19 his parents sued the contractor, KBR Inc., for Sgt. Maseth's death.
According to the Pittsburgh-Post Gazette:
"The Defense Contract Management Agency, we believe, authorized [the contractor] to the tune of millions of dollars to make the repairs. And they never made the repairs," Mr. Cavanaugh said. "And we don't know why. A simple repair -- just ground the building -- and Ryan would be alive today."
On July 1, New York Times Investigative Reporter James Reisen, author of the 2006 book "State of War: The Secret History of the CIA and the Bush Administration," took up the subject. According to Reisen, General David Petraeus stated to Congress that 13 Americans had been electrocuted since the invasion of Iraq: 12 soldiers and one contractor.
As recently as July 11, KBR Inc. electricians told a Senate panel tasked to investigate the deaths that their employer used inexperienced, non-English speaking workers to install electrical systems. Many experienced contractors, they claimed, were dismissed after raising cautions over the work.
According to the Associated Press:
"Time and again we heard, `This is not the states, OSHA doesn't apply here. If you don't like it you can go home,'" said Debbie Crawford, a journeyman electrician with 30 years experience.
Army Times reports that the shoddy wiring and electrical risks have brought about the deaths of 11 service members and two U.S. civilians.
However, a follow-up report by James Reisen in the New York Times on July 18 states that the problem is far worse than General Petraeus stated, and the military has known about the systemic problems since 2004.
Since the invasion, over 283 electrical fires on US bases have been reported, along with two deaths in 2006 at a base in Tikrit, the death of Sgt. Maseth, and innumerable painful shocks dealt to Americans.
A log of complaints compiled early in 2008 found soldiers living in just one Baghdad building complex were complaining of painful electrical shocks 'on an almost daily basis.'
In public statements, Pentagon officials have not addressed the scope of the hazards, instead mostly focusing on the circumstances surrounding the death of Sergeant Maseth, who lived near Pittsburgh.
But the internal documents, including dozens of memos, e-mail messages and reports from the Army, the Defense Contract Management Agency and other agencies, show that electrical problems were widely recognized as a major safety threat among Pentagon contracting experts. It is impossible to determine the exact number of the resulting deaths and injuries because no single document tallies them up. (The records were compiled for Congressional and Pentagon investigators and obtained independently by The Times.)
The 2007 safety survey was ordered by the top official in Iraq for the Defense Contract Management Agency, which oversees contractors, after the October 2006 electrical fire that killed two soldiers near Tikrit. Paul Dickinson, a Pentagon safety specialist who wrote the report, confirmed its findings, but did not elaborate.
READ THE REST.

Gore ends fossil fuels for electricity by 2018
The former vice-president credited with rejuvenating America's environmental movement today issued a challenge to its people: End the use of fossil fuels for electricity within 10 years.
Al Gore's call to end the burning of carbon for power, delivered before an adoring audience in Washington, was clearly aimed at vaulting renewable energy to the top of the presidential candidates' agenda.
"Our dangerous reliance on carbon-based fuels is at the core of all these problems – economic, environmental, national security," Gore said. "The answer is to end our reliance on carbon-based fuels."
The Nobel prizewinner likened his clean power challenge to John F Kennedy's 1961 vow to put a man on the moon within 10 years. The young president was mocked at the time, Gore observed, but the US achieved its spacewalk eight years later.
Gore also delivered a withering jab at Republicans and Democrats alike for debating whether to expand coastal oil drilling rather than how to diminish the country's unsustainable reliance on oil. The US Congress is opening debate this week on expanding domestic oil leases.
"Even those who reap the profits of the carbon age have to recognise the inevitability of its demise," Gore said, repeating former Saudi oil minister Sheikh Yamani's famous quip: "The Stone Age didn't end because of a shortage of stones."
Despite winning the popular vote against George Bush in the 2000 presidential election, Gore has displayed no interest in returning to politics. His speech today was sponsored by the Alliance for Climate Protection, a non-profit group that serves as a home base for his environmental advocacy.
He shied away from specifics during the speech, not mentioning the trillion-dollar price tag of ending carbon-based electricity. Instead, Gore urged the US to institute a carbon tax that could be offset by reducing the payroll tax on employers.
"We should tax what we burn, not what we earn," he said.
Underpinning Gore's remarks, however, was a finely tuned sense of the economic anxiety that dominates American life 13 weeks before the next presidential election. He observed that the environmental, fiscal, and national-security dangers facing the country would be eliminated by a conversion to clean energy.
"We're borrowing money from China to buy oil from the Persian Gulf to burn it in ways that destroy the planet," Gore said to wild applause. "Every bit of that has got to change."
John McCain and Barack Obama - whom Gore has endorsed for president - were not mentioned by name. But Gore did give kudos to Bob Barr, the former Republican congressman running for president on the Libertarian party ticket, who attended the speech.
Though Obama was not in the audience, he released a statement hailing Gore's reminder that "we cannot drill our way to energy independence, but must fast-track investments in renewable sources of energy like solar power, wind power and advanced biofuels".
"Those are the investments I will make as president," Obama added. "It's a strategy that will create millions of new jobs that pay well and cannot be outsourced, and one that will leave our children a world that is cleaner and safer."

Gas prices 'could rise 70%'
Consumer organisations attacked energy companies today for not doing enough to protect poorer people from the worst effects of spiralling gas prices .
The comments came after a report warned that gas prices could soar by up to 70% in the next two years and stay high. Annual gas bills could rise from around £600 a household to more than £1,000, according to the independent report commissioned by Centrica, which owns British Gas.
It said gas prices in the UK would be more strongly influenced by the soaring cost of oil, which has jumped above $140 a barrel this year - twice as high as a year ago. This is because declining output from the North Sea makes Britain more reliant on imports.
"The energy companies could do more to shield vulnerable people from the worst effects of rising energy prices," said Cassie Higgs, energy expert at the National Consumer Council. "An effective response would be for the companies to offer low-cost 'social' tariffs to vulnerable households, such as low-income families and elderly people. Some energy companies are doing well in this area, but others are offering schemes that are inadequate - often rationed and applied inconsistently."
Jake Ulrich, managing director of Centrica Energy, admitted that gas price rises were likely to lead to a "potentially significant" rise in the number of people in fuel poverty. He predicted that people would have to change their habits to deal with higher prices. "I do think we will see people change their behaviour," he said. "I think people will use less energy and I hate to go back to the Jimmy Carter days in the US but maybe it's two jumpers instead of one."
Energywatch, the gas and electricity watchdog, called on the government to act to reduce the pressure on wholesale gas prices and force the industry to deliver affordable energy for the less well-off.
"The government is right to say that the link to oil is a cause of the problems but wrong to say there is nothing that can be done," said chief executive Allan Asher. "The local impact is so catastrophic it should be leading the international drive to end the hugely damaging and entirely unjustifiable link between the prices of gas and oil.
Gordon Lishman, director general of Age Concern, said higher energy bills were hitting pensioners particularly hard. "Price rises on this scale would mean well over three million pensioner households - more than one in three - would be in fuel poverty," he said. "It is totally unacceptable that because of price hikes many older people may feel forced to cut back on their heating, which could put their health at risk."
