A cloud the size and color of night has just been lifted by the new NIE, and the one that I’m referring to is not the same one commonly being celebrated. Don’t get me wrong. The fact that there is now virtually zero chance of a U.S. direct military attack on Iranian soil is tremendously […]

Still a lot of chatter about Iran and the implications of the NIE and yet, the world still turns and every day life still goes on, as if in denial.
I have work, tonight. As my business is mostly hosting karaoke, one of my main chores is finding music that people want to sing, whether they […]

“I’ve known Hillary Clinton for twenty-four years. […]

Yet Again: Why We Must Impeach Bush and Cheney

While the focus in the past couple of days has been on the release of the NIE report on Iran, there’s been news of things heating up in Afghanistan that has remained somewhat under the wire. AP News reports that the Taliban claimed responsibility for a suicide attack today that killed at least 13 people and […]

For approximately 3 minutes, I had the misfortune of seeing GWB on my television, yesterday (my son turned on the boob tube and there was America’s own personal boob…). I changed the channel almost immediately as I heard a reporter ask him about whether or not the NIE and GWB’s threats to Iran would hurt […]

Oh my goodness this is priceless… Mike Huckabee sat down an “on-the-record dinner” with a group of reporters in Des Moines and low and behold he knew nothing, I repeat NOTHING, about the Iran NIE. As Jonathan Martin notes on Politico, “The transcript speaks for itself“:
Kuhn: I don’t know to what extent you have been briefed or […]

This Bush routine is getting so old. Honestly, he needs some new schtick because the American public is so done with his fear mongering and lies:
President Bush warned today that Iran remained a threat despite an intelligence assessment that it had halted a covert program to develop nuclear weapons four years ago, as the administration […]

“That’s why I want to be very clear: If the President takes us to war with Iran without congressional approval, I will call for his impeachment. I am dead serious. … I’m saying this now to put the administration on notice and hopefully to deter the president from taking unilateral action in the last year […]

The Bush administration has just lost their number one excuse to bomb Iran. All the posturing and blustering from Cheney and crew has been proven to be based on lies and propaganda:
A new assessment by American intelligence agencies concludes that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program in 2003 and that the program remains on hold, […]

It was predictable that our invading Iraq could lead to military clashes between Turkey and the people of Kurdish Northern Iraq. It was predictable because it was predicted. To some, then, the latest flare up of fighting in the long simmering hostilities on the Turkish Iraqi border comes as anything but a surprise. To some, […]

Here’s a fun little story that, like so much with this Administration, provides at least as many questions as it does answers. Anyway, I think that if I was sneaking around doing stuff that GWB really does not approve of I would not be having glamorous parties in the luxurious mansion home of a big […]
