DC,

"it's going to be damn hard for the GOP to rebuild itself if it's base is listening to--and maybe even believing--such trash."

Let's hope they stay crazy and out of power!

Actually, the Michael Savage program routinely traffics in racist and homophobic content. It is truly disgusting and caters to a real lunatic fringe -- that is nonetheless millions strong. I unfortunately don't find it surprising that a Savage guest would liken our wonderful president-elect to one of the most monstrous rulers in history. It's par for that course.

"" it's remarkable that seven years after 9/11, not all the obvious security steps have been taken to protect Americans from a similar attack. ""

i find it even more remarkable that more than seven years after 9/11, and despite the many obvious contradictions to the official explanation for such, which amounts to nothing more than a fairy tale, the american people still couldn't care less.

Obama advisers: Harsh interrogators will walk

Even as President-elect Obama vowed "to regain America's moral stature in the world" during Sunday's 60 Minutes appearance, two of his senior advisers confessed there is no intent to pursue those in the Bush administration who engaged in torture.

The whole point of the Nuremberg trials was that "I am only following orders" was not a sufficient excuse for tortures and other war criminals to evade punishment for their actions.
Obama's credibility as the harbinger of change will crumble if he fails to hold the people responsible for this travesty to account.

If the next congress and administration sidestep the issue of lawlessness on the part of the current administration, I would retract my vote for Obama and I will begin shtting down all my obligations and depart this country for either warmer climes or greater sanity.

I do not so much seek vengence as I wish to leave clear notice to future administrations that scoff laws will be punished. We can't let this slide by. It is only incentive for future elected officials to consider the constitution to be so much potential toilet paper.

Is Obama the Antichrist?

The winning lottery number in Illinois was 666, which, as everyone knows, is the sign of the Beast.

Good thing Newsweek is a M$M publication and is free from the hyperbolic innuendo.

"In the writings of the Bahá'í Faith, `Abdu'l-Bahá states that the numerical value given to the beast referred to the year when the Umayyad ruler Muawiyah I, who opposed the Imamate, took office as Caliph in 661 AD - see also the scholarly accepted year of birth of Jesus about 666 years before as well as the concept of Mawali who were non-Arab Muslims but not treated as other Muslims - who continued to pay the tax required of nonbelievers and were excluded from government and the military, and thus bore a social 'mark'."

Gingrich: "[T]here is a gay and secular fascism in this country that wants to impose its will on the rest of us"

Summary: Discussing actions by individual protesters of Proposition 8, Newt Gingrich stated: "I think there is a gay and secular fascism in this country that wants to impose its will on the rest of us, is prepared to use violence, to use harassment. I think it is prepared to use the government if it can get control of it. I think that it is a very dangerous threat to anybody who believes in traditional religion."

Cheney, Gonzales Indicted By South Texas Grand Jury

South Texas grand jury has indicted Vice President Dick Cheney and former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on charges related to the alleged abuse of prisoners in Willacy County's federal detention centers.

The indictment criticizes Cheney's investment in the Vanguard Group, which holds interests in the private prison companies running the federal detention centers. It accuses Cheney of a conflict of interest and "at least misdemeanor assaults" on detainees by working through the prison companies.

Gonzales is accused of using his position while in office to stop an investigation into abuses at the federal detention centers.

Another indictment charges state Sen. Eddie Lucio Jr. with profiting from his public office by accepting honoraria from prison management companies.

The indictments were first reported by KRGV-TV.

In Texas? This seems a bit surprising.

Capt --- Texas will soon be a minority majority state. Starts in the South and along the Rio Grande.

At last we're doing something about national security. Indicting Cheney and Gonzales is a good start. Putting them in a Vanguard prison would be okay.

But I still prefer rendition. Frogmarch that smirkyasshole and tell him he's the chairman of the water board and get him to come across about 911.
