I don’t think these people are merely incompetent. I think they, and especially Bush, are psychopathic criminals, as stone evil as any sadistic mass murderers from Ted Bundy to Stalin.

Exactly! Keep that in mind. These people of Bu$hitCo, the Repuglicans, Fundi-leaders, neo-cons; they are sociopaths, or at the very least, Narcissistic Dysfunctional individuals, many criminal, also. Who knows what they are ultimately capable of, but you can be sure it will be without a care to the consequences for anyone but themselves.

Keep in mind: THEY ARE NOT LIKE US, THEY NEVER WILL BE!!!

my question is; will the cheney-bush crime family be held accountable for executing their plan for total chaos in the middle east, or will they be held accountable for having no plan…

peas!

What the fuck did he just say???????

In the languages of the region, an “i” is added to denote that one is from a particular country.

eg: “Irani” in farsi which is spoken in Afhganistan.

Afghani

Pakistani

Hindi

and on and on and on.

There is nothing offensive about Afghani. (I used to speak a little farsi back in the day and was actually in Afghanistan in the mid-70s. They called themselves Afghanis).

My Afghan employee, granddaughter of former leader of the state Mojaddidy, says that Afghan is correct, that Afghani refers to the currency, and that it’s actually not a big deal at all — she calls herself Afghani by accident all the time. So — I agree that I was over the top.

Thanks to Christy for the fantastic post and thanks to all the great comments.

This is one of the best discussions I’ve read on FDL. So much knowledge and information shared that I’m writing this only half way through. Voicing the terrible reality we face but also knowing there are ways to find solutions, that there are possible solutions, and giving hope that if we work to do everything we can for the November elections we have a chance to turn this around.

YES to accountability for every incumbant, for every person who supposedly represents us. Accountability via our vote and accountability via the courtroom.

From an April 2003 interview between Tom Brokaw and W Dipshit:

Q: Can you imagine being FDR and running World War II all those years? Truman, Korea? All the years that Vietnam went on and 57,000 lives were lost.
THE PRESIDENT: I know.

Q: Now that you’ve had your own –

THE PRESIDENT: One month.

Q: — one month, but your own time on the crucible, to know what the country would go through?

THE PRESIDENT: It’s a very interesting question, because — yes, I know, I can’t imagine what it would be like to have been through the Vietnam War as the President of the United States. I hope I would have done it differently, I hope I would have had a clearer mission and given the militaries the tools and their strategy necessary to achieve a mission, as opposed to politicizing the war the way they did. But you’re right, it’s a strain on the country.

Iran will be a far more difficult task for our military than Hezbollah has been for Israel. Ergo, the necessity of using tactical nuclear weapons to invade and “bring democracy to the freedom loving people of Iran.” I can’t imagine a plan more insane, but I think I’m finally beginning to figure out neocon-think. Although it makes me sick to my stomach to consider this possibility, I believe that the order has been given to devise a warplan to invade Iran before the November election using tactical nuclear weapons.

God help us all.

The report also defended the legality of ignoring congressional intelligence oversight, arguing that “the President has the Constitutional and statutory authority to withhold notifying Congress of covert actions under rare conditions.” And it condemned “legislative hostage-taking,” noting that “Congress must realize…that the power of the purse does not make it supreme” in matters of war….

Jesus H. Christ! Have those people never read the history of the Parliament in England and realized that it became supreme ONLY because it held the purse strings when the King went to war and needed additional money?

This was the history that was guiding the American founding fathers when they wrote the Constitution. That is WHY they wrote it the way they did!

Oops, since Bu$h was prolly out of Yale and either deserting from TANG, partying at Harvard or driving one of his business ventures bankrupt there may not have been much “shoulder rubbing”
going on.

By the way, does this mean that JoMo went to Yale also? Not only has the US squandered it’s reputation and honor thanks to this criminal administration, but Yale as well. Seeing how dumb Condi turned out, Stanford has an academic reputation to rebuild as well.

Was she a student there or hired to be provost later?
