Judge Janice Rogers Brown

Judge Janice Rogers Brown decries the New Deal as a 'Victory for Socialism', but she's an idiot. It was a victory for SOCIETY. The New Deal was a triumphant expression of our culture too.

But you know what is a victory for socialism? The fact that through the absurdity of the Bush administration our flaccid economy is currently underwritten by robust communist China.

Way to go, conservatives, you can't even see it, can you?

Globally mediocre idealist fish seeks pinheaded bicycle

Can John Bolton be good for the United Nations? Ironically, yes. But predictably, he will not be good for us.

A sworn enemy of the UN, Bolton can be expected to take the battle to it, and carry with him the elitist psychopath attitudes toward everyone on the planet best expressed by President Bush and the Republican Party. Voinovich didn't vote against him, he held his nose and did the opposite of what his proper upbringing told him. And rather than advise and consent, this Senate Rubbers and Stamps to curry favor with the moneybringing juggernaut of the GOP. He is the worst person for the job of Ambassador to the UN, and illustrates a pattern.

Bush's decisions have disgraced Colin Powell as a marionette, who must be bound and gagged in some Foggy Bottom basement right now. So the UN knew what to expect when Condosleasa Rice earned her Secretary of State job by ignoring the PDB titled "Osama Bin Laden is Going to Hijack Planes and Crash them into Major Sites in the US". Hey- isn't she the Russia expert presiding over the security apparatus of the US? The same one who helped Bush stop securing portable Russian Nukes? The one in charge of State when Russia got a new Oil Pipeline because despite their terrible mideast relations they're better than ours are? And hey- she has Africa experience, sitting on the Chevron board when the machine-gunned all those dangerous Nigerians.

But good for the UN; Bolton will be singularly ineffective in furthering our interests but a uniter of our competitors. He already disgraced our partners in the North Korea project so badly the State Department stopped letting him speak for himself. The only interest he serves is conflict. There's a difference between tough guy and asshole, and this guy is the latter.

The secret CIA documents Senate Democrats are rightly demanding probably indicate the name of the CIA operative the Republican Party leaked to Novack. Since we'll probably be needing the UN to unite to protect us from the oligarchy being cultivated- Andersen's aquittal by the Supreme Court and inaction in the Cheney/Enron task force case indicate our best chance for justice will be the International Criminal Court. And we can expect our international neighbors to fight hard FOR strengthening it and AGAINST Bolton.

When are the sane Republicans going to redeem themselves and jettison this administration? Not until China stops underwriting Bush's insane spending and bounced us from the Security Council as obstructionist paupers.

Newsweek

What will Newsweek do? I may stop reading because they're doing anything to apologize for their indictment of the Administration's disgusting behavior. Turns out it was kinda true, that the Koran was involved in the psychological torture practiced at Guantanamo.

A few dozen people died protesting behavior now shown to be at least substantially close to the truth. Big deal. Bush and his liar cabal got it nowhere near the bulls-eye and killed over 1,600 Americans. And they won't admit a thing.

Newsweek, I'm offended you're entertaining this false indignant posturing from the administration. You're endangering us. We need an independent media, and you did the right thing.

But since you brought it up, what will the administration do to make up for killing 1600 of us over false accusations?

Nothing, because they know their constituency, and their constituency wants liars to kill Americans.
