And I’m so grateful for Siun’s posts in recent weeks for broadening the vision for me.

Blessings to all the FDL writers.

The view here is the Bush administration has ignited a civil war in Iraq. And that this conflict will spread regionally. We must do three things. First, begin hearings of impeachment against the President, to show the Middle East good faith. And we must bring our soldiers home from Iraq. And we must get our Navy ships out of the Persian Gulf. God help us.

Amen and amen. Thanks for the last two posts Scarecrow.

But far more importantly, it KILLS me that this is my senator. The fact that he came back to CT and lied, cajoled and smeared his way back into the hearts of my fellow gullible Dems is heartbreaking. Every day they must be forced to ask themselves how they allowed this man back in office. Disgraceful.

KO is talking about the impact of Beatles albums on Russia.

I’m here to tell you: it was HUGE. People wondered how evil the English-speaking world could be if they had such music. And lots of people wanted to learn English in order to understand the lyrics.

Historians will judge, but anecdotal evidence that I have is that the Beatles helped end the Cold War.

I recall walking around Talinn in the day. Marks on the wall “Lennon lives’.

I beg for the abandonment of zoological epithets/references to members of Homo sapiens whose behavior is evil or excecrable. Our relatives of the strange races are too busy scraping out a living to bother with the sheer vileness, basic bloody-mindedness of humans.

Eloquently put, hypatia.

My contempt for the human known as Joe Lieberman known no bounds. What a Cheney.

KO —

Monica G. from “self-addressed stamped envelope law school” judging seasoned US Attorneys.

Monica G’s law school is the Pat Robertson founded Regent University. It is heavily Christianist, but is fully accredited. Her undergrad school, despite its name and motto (”Christ preeminent”), is much more legitimate academically, and probably does not deserve ridicule.

KO has Andrew Sullivan on about Gonzales and the Texas youth sexual abuse scandal NOW

One of the better blog investigations into that mess is, as per usual, Firedoglake. In that thread, Human and montag get into the weeds about whether there’s serious federal misconduct, basically concluding there isn’t. Does the KO segment go into any detail about the involvelement Swift-boat liar extraordinaire Jerome Corsi in pushing the story?

Maybe Lieberman will be McCain’s running mate and lose him the election like he lost it for Gore!

My God, wouldn’t that just be poetic justice? Especially if meant he’d be winning the election for Gore this time.

It’s brutally obvious now that McCain and Lie*man are on the same side. They deserve each other, I say.
