Yupper. She was being groomed from the get-go. The reason: Not only is she female, she’s Asian-American. They can wave her around to show how “committed to diversity” they are.

And when anybody points out that her qualifications are nonexistent, the Busheviks can accuse the critic of racism. Same with Lurita Doan of the GSA.

Oh, well, looks like Princess Rachel’s domain just became a constitutional monarchy. She’s princess in name only. Mr. Kelly will be running the show. She may be able to put USA on her resume but it will only be a part truth.

Come Saturday morning
I’m goin’ away with my friend
We’ll Saturday-spend till the end of the day-ay
Just I and my friend
We’ll travel for miles in our Saturday smiles
And then we’ll move on
But we will remember long after Saturday’s gone

Do other people have that horrid Sandpipers song lodged in their heads too? The movie (The Sterile Cuckoo) came out in 1970, so it’s been in there for 37 years, going around and around and around. Fortunately, it alternates with Me and Bobbie McGee, so I’m not yet completely insane.

I should note that I did not verify this.

OT reading “The American Chemical Society Terminates The Membership Of Chemists From Iran” notice on Counterpunch begs the question:

Why are over 8% of our employable chemists unemployed?

Because 1.)there are so many mergers in the chemical/pharmaceutical industry lately and when that happens, hiring freezes go into affect and 2.)companies are beginning to outsource to India and Asia. (Oddly, I know US chemists who get shipped to asia for 3 month shifts to manage the outsourced workers. They’re not crazy about this whole stoopid scheme.)
Yep, we just can’t do without another marketing major but God forbid we fill up our empty labs with domestic chemists. Chemistry resources are always scarce and some medicinal chemistry just never gets done because of the incredible short-sitedness of our “gifted” American management.

Watching former Chicago USA Pat Collins become speechless w/anger @ the end of the statement below makes me wonder what other USAs might say about Gonzales, were they free to do so :

“It bothers me to no end that a 35-year-old guy can evaluate Pat Fitzgerald and call him mediocre when he doesn’t know the first thing about being a public servant,” said Collins. “And when the attorney general came to town last week and was sitting next to Pat, had every opportunity to put his arm around Pat and say, this is one of the best guys I got– he said nothing.”

Alberto Gonzales is a classic case of a passive/aggressive personality. He is a small man in a big job. Plus, he’s a liar and a sneak.

Hey, where did our little troll go? Was he frightened off by all the hard facts hitting him on the head, the poor dear? Or could it be he was he just doing the standard hit-and-run trolling instead of attempting an actual dialogue?

If we only knew his mom’s phone number, the chances of getting her to catch him jacking off in the closet (again) right now would be quite high. Probably the tenth time she would’ve caught him since his 30th birthday.

You have the gift.

and then there are those dang libruls who passed congressional resolutions condemning Saddam Hussein’s use of poison gas on the village of Halabja, only to have president Reagan veto their condemnation, so Reagan, with his cronies Rumsfeld and Cheney could continue to give the Iraqi army satellite and other intelligence pinpointing Iranian positions for poison gas attacks. Evidence of mustard gas attacks on Iranian troops emerged in the early 1980s. US president Ronald Reagan vetoed condemnation of Iraq. His defence secretary, Donald Rumsfeld, flew to Baghdad to shake hands with Saddam Hussein and the US reopened its embassy there.

damn, human rights trampling libruls!
