Clinton liberates Kosovo, Bush rides in to a warm reception. Will bush manage to screw this up too?
You know how Bush had a “stomach upset” and couldn’t attend the G-8 summit.
Hmmm . . . I certainly couldn’t have been the BEER he was photographed drinking leading to a hangover?
Nah, he quit drinking years ago. He said so . . . and no reporter could ever just ask him.
Senator Joe Lieberman just appeared on “Face The Nation” with Bob Schieffer and instead of mentioning “terrorists” he said the Iran was training “al-Qaida” to “kill American soldiers” over a dozen times. Lieberman advocated attacking Iran to stop them from “killing Americans.”
Bob Schieffer was startled by this “call to war” and told Lieberman that he was making news by suggesting that the American People take on yet another war, when they don’t want the one they’re in now.
Lieberman had no comment about that.
Iran does train their soldiers as do we, but I wonder how Lieberman can be so sure that Iran only trains al-Qaida and not their own armed forces.
Surely Sen. Lieberman wouldn’t misrepresent anything on US National Television.

What are you blathering about dexter?
Republican is gone for two days and so is Right Angle.
Coincidence . . . pure coincidence . . .
Capn, who the hell is “Right Angle?”
Right-wing Fundy School Board Member who Demands Bible Course tells Opponents to “Kiss My Butt”
In a news conference Wednesday, Lisa Graybill, legal director for the ACLU of Texas, said for students to learn a “literal truth” about the sacred text without acknowledging other religions surrounding it presents a problem constitutionally.
“It’s not that the Bible can’t be taught in schools,” she said. “It has to be done constitutionally.”
She added many parents have attempted to sit in on the class and haven’t been allowed the opportunity.
ECISD trustee L.V. “Butch” Foreman III said he didn’t understand how the parents could have an argument in the case if none had children taking the classes.
“ . . . they can kiss my butt,” Foreman said. “They’re just looking to impose their beliefs and their views on everybody, and we don’t put up with that crap out here.”

Tom–
He’s the nic Republican posted as before he was JM and Eier . . .
He’s resurrected Right Angle a few times lately.
Capn,
Ah. Well, I for one don’t care what nics it posts under, trolls, or outright steals. In my opinion, tothing it says is believable any longer.
*nothing, not *tothing. I need to proofread!
Exactly right, Tom. Just testing an old hypothesis for my own edification.
I’ve seen him make people APOLOGIZE to him for accusing him of nic switching, and then he goes on to confirm it beyond a reasonable shadow of a doubt.
A totally despicable human being . . .
“Iran only trains al-Qaida”
Iran – Shi’ite Muslims.
Al Qaeda – Sunni Muslims.
There is no operational cooperation between the two. As usual, Lieberman is talking out his ass. When will these war-mongerers learn to get the facts BEFORE going off half-Cheneyed?
WS,
I’m beginning to think “never.” :(
To paraphrase Pat Buchanan, the White House is Israeli occupyied terrority.
There seems to be no Arab country that doesn’t merit a thorough bombing campaign, except for the Arab country that actually attacked us on 9-11, Saudi Arabia.
Heheheh. Maybe 9/11 happened because we were late to our payments to Bandar Bush?
Maybe that’s why the Saudis continue to skate scott free, while we continue to occupy the country that has oil?
Oh, and there is that bush dynesty/house of saud/ house of bin laden/carlyle connection…
And cheney and halliburton. You’d have to be willfully BLIND not to connect the dots.
Now slave labor is being used in Iraq to build U.S. bases. More progress from the Bush administration.
The Saudis are Sunni, and Bin Laden was kicked out of Saudi Arabia. He went to set-up shop in Sudan and was again kicked of that country. He finally set-up shop in Afghanistan under the Taliban { who are radical Shiites much to his liking }.
The Israelis like to badmouth the Saudis, as the Zionists want Saudi oil. The Israelis and their supporters always jump on the chance to badmouth the Saudis.
The first time oil hit 3 dollars, the Saudis increased production by 1 million barrels a day to help bring down the price. It worked.
The current high price of gasoline is Cheney’s doing, as the price of crude oil remains about 60-65 dollar range and doesn’t justify the 3-4 dollar price of gasoline.
The Taliban, al Qaeda and the Saudis are Sunni Muslims, not Shia. Part of the issue in Afghanistan right now is the Shi’ite Iranians have taken control of portions of the southern part of Afghanistan.

LMAO!
Right Capn…
No one goes anywhere on the weekend but me and RightAngle.
I guess everyone else in America stayed home just so you could prove your Blog Nic conspiracies.
Seek help for your mental deficiencies Capn. Its reading like you are really going over the edge and beyond paranoia.
Is it because of Bush that the Shi’ite Iranians are flooding other countries?
What other countries? The Iranians have crossed the border into southern Afghanistan. What other country are they in?

Jeez, I have reached the peak of my popularity – folks are nic switching so that they can take a shot at me!
Wow!!!!!!
Oh, “G” it is spelled “gardener.”
Dumbass.

Damn, what a bunch of witty original nic switchers!!!!!
What a bunch of funny little boys.
What is so threatening about me, guys?
Dumbbasses.
NATO officials say they have caught Iran red-handed,shipping heavy arms, C4 explosives and advanced roadside bombs to the Taliban for use against NATOforces, in what the officials say is a dramatic escalation of Iran’s proxy war against the UnitedStates and Great Britain. Also among the munitions are components for the lethal EFPs, or explosive formed projectiles, the roadside bombs that U.S. officials say Iran has provided to Iraqi insurgents with deadly results.Meanwhile, Syria, aided by Iran, is ready to launch a war against Israel.We’ll be launching strikes against Iran sooner or later, probably starting with high-altitude bombing runs on their terrorist training camps and munitions.God bless the USofA.
ReplagiarCon is back . . . boy, that was quick. Kinda like WHAT SHE SAID.
And still maintaining that he never nic-switches and has never switched and we can’t prove it.
Unbelievable.
Now you know why he admires Bush so much . . . reality just doesn’t matter to either one of them.
Back to walk on by.
Parkay–
If you have such a hard-on for killing terrorists, why don’t you enlist?
Or do you have a “bad back” too?
******
According to NPR today, Turkey has troops massed on the border with autonomous Kurdish Iraq and are spoiling to invade.
And what is funny? The Americans are saying, “you can’t invade a country that didn’t invade you first” . . . in other words, do what we say not what we do.
Looks like the only part of Iraq that was somewhat on our side is going to be enmeshed in war too.
Mission accomplished.
36 hours of peace on the blog, 36 hours of relative peace. And now the blank is back. Who knew a complete blank could suck up so much space?
The US has been caught red handed giving cluster bombs to the rogue terrorist of Israel to be used against defenceless Palestinians, Iraqis, and Lebanese.
The rogue terrorist of Israel is planning a preemptive strike against Iranians which offer no threat other than trying to gain an semblance of weapons with which to fight off the invading hordes of barbarians of Israelis and American butchers.
The recent slaughter of defenseless Lebanese is all the proof needed to show the intent of the butchers and 4 years of daily bombing of Iraqis civilians goes beyond proving the point.
The world seems to recognize what the crazed killers fail to see in themselves, but there is nothing new about that.
Their phony slogans of “terrorists” and “al-Qaida” are the tired old propaganda tools used to justify the bloodbath which they prefer over the Arab peace plan in the offering.
{ It’s all in how you say it }.
I wasn’t aware that Palestinians did not have fences Ed. Perhaps we can ship them over the materials needed for building these fences. Wouldn’t want to leave them deFENCEless. :D
In just a few hours, the nic-switching troll has managed to infect every single active thread with its spew. This is getting old and tiresome.
It needs to be ignored. I for one won’t be responding directly to anything it types (as I haven’t been for the past several days). It has been caught in repeated fabrications and lies, it has tried to impersonate other bloggers, and it has repeated launched vicious personal attacks on those it thinks it can get a reaction from.
It makes empty threats, it pretends to knowledge it doesn’t have, and it engages in little games of word-twisting “gotcha.” There’s nothing it says that can be believed.
Then Tom, it best be known that you and your trained attack surrender monkeys not to attack me. I will do the same.
If they persist, I will have no alternative than to call animal control. ROFL!
Absolutely right, Tom, no question.
If necessary, we can all sing walk on by together…… Until the urge to respond passes.

Try and get some kumbaya in there as well Clarkie. :)
WS,
I can’t hit those high notes.
But notice how the troll _immediately_ responded to the description I gave of it, even without using any of its nics. It doesn’t realize how much it gives away about itself every time it touches its keyboard.
As I said before Tom, prove it or I can offer the same bet with you as I did with WSClark.
Or are you chicken? :)
Phillip Brownlee I’m sure, needs an extra $2500.00 in his wallet.
So, what do you say Tom? :D

Republank seems to be saying that Mr. Brownlee would lie, so he could get $2,500. Email pbrownlee@wichitaeagle.com and ask him.
Why do not you email Phillip Brownlee I’m sure, needs an extra $2500.00 in his wallet.

OMG! cosmos is now accusing that Phillip Brownlee would lie too!
Don’t these Liberal Leftist such as cosmos, wsclark, Tom, doug, Steven Davis and CapnAmerican have any self-dignity or pride left?
I’m deeply sadden by the sad shells of human beings that they are.
COLIN POWELL REFUTES BUSH’S LIE THAT HE “ONLY DOES WHAT THE COMMANDERS IN THE FIELD WANT”
On NBC’s “Meet the Press” on June 10, host Tim Russert asked Powell why his prediction of a troop drawdown by early 2007 hadn’t come to pass.
“A different choice was made by the President,” Powell answered. “The President received advice from his military advisers last fall that said, do not send more troops.
“Gen. [John] Abizaid went before the Congress, the commander of Central Command, and said he had consulted with all his division commanders in Iraq and all of the senior commanders, and none of them wanted to send additional troops.
“They thought the strategy at that point should be to put the burden on the Iraqis to resolve what I call a civil war.”
Abizaid’s position was supported, too, by the Joint Chiefs of Staff and last fall even by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, who sent the President a memo on Nov. 6 suggesting a redeployment of U.S. forces away from police functions, echoing earlier recommendations of Democratic Rep. John Murtha.
The Surge Purge
Two days after that memo, Bush fired Rumsfeld. The President then turned to the “surge” idea being promoted by neoconservative theorists, such as historian Frederick Kagan. As White House neocons embraced the notion of a troop escalation, Bush began purging dissident military officers.
Bush removed the two top generals overseeing the Iraq War, Abizaid and George Casey – and last week extended the purge to Joint Chiefs chairman, Gen. Peter Pace, who also had offended the neocons by resisting pressure for military action against Iran.
After Bush announced the “surge” plan in January and installed more compliant commanders to carry it out, such as Gen. David Petraeus, the President seamlessly shifted back to rhetoric about how he listens to the advice of the military experts on the ground.

LOL! I love this guy’s commentary. :)
Gardener?? Exterminator?? Rat poison?? This place is getting scary!! Time to just Walk On By, I think…
Tom,
That’s a dumbass conversation remark, I suggest you drop saying it anyone else.
Twice is too often already!
——-Mrage,
Kiss my ass. I’ve kept my comments professional and on-topic. I’ve not called you any names, or questioned your judgement, or denigrated your positions and your politics. Grow up and do the same.
Thanks.

———Tyler,
Kiss my ass. All I did was criticize your sources. At no point did I call you and “American Citizens” racists.
Your response is typical of radical conservatives. If someone dares disagree with you, call them “morons” and accuse people of saying things they’ve never said.
Piss off.

Republank,
You claimed that TypeKey is more interested in what you pay TypePad, than your stealing J M Walker’s nic.http://blogs.kansas.com/weblog/2007/06/do_not_know_squ.html#comment-72301696
Stealing nics seems to violate their ‘Terms of Service’.http://www.typekey.com/tos/“You agree that you, in connection with your use of the TypeKey Service, will not:
(a) impersonate any person or entity, …”
Is that the money you “pay TypePad” for republikhan’s site in Hillaryn09’s post?http://blogs.kansas.com/weblog/2007/05/open_thread_25.html#comment-70813618
And IIRC, you said you could track the IP’s of anyone who visited your republikhan site. Is that an extra charge, and more money to TypePad?
Yawn,
Try as he might, cosmos has turned from his brethren of the E.L.F. to that of discontinuous self servitude.
Chas,
Doesn’t matter where that asinine remark was posted, it was said consecutive days to different people.
Well, I guess if “kiss my ass” bothers you, maybe you better check out some of the other bloggers on this thing… I have seen a LOT worse than that.
More juvenile than vulgar or abusive. It’s laughable actually.
Maybe he’ll get around to you with it. In context of conversations it has yet to make any sense, why that response is being said by him.
Hmmmm — In light of some “nic stealing” that has been happening, just MAYbe Tom never said it???
“LOL! I love this guy’s commentary. :)”
Of course ‘Hillaryn09′, aka ‘blank’, aka (long list of nics) does.

My mind is like an empty room. Nothing seems worth thinking about. More or less not much noteworthy happening worth mentioning, but it’s not important. I guess it doesn’t bother me. I’ve just been letting everything wash over me lately.
I feel like a fog, not that it matters. I’ve pretty much been doing nothing , but eh. Today was a loss. I haven’t gotten much done for a while.
I haven’t been up to much recently, but whatever. I just don’t have much to say lately. Basically nothing happening to speak of. So it goes. My mind is like a complete blank. Such is life.
