Bush’s “Terror Futures” Market: Betting on your loved one’s deaths

Until the project was hastily killed yesterday; Pentagon bureaucrats were busily building a new Web site where we could all invest in the future of terrorism. Their “Policy Analysis Market” (funded by the Bush White House and thought up by criminal John Pointdexter) would have encouraged betting on the likelihood of assassinations, mass murders and other unnatural disasters. The Pentagon called its latest idea a new way of predicting events and part of its search for the “broadest possible set of new ways to prevent terrorist attacks.”

17-year-old Indianapolis Youth Killed Because She Was Trans

From the Indianapolis Star:

Gregory Johnson and his friend Brandie Coleman were killed and left in an SUV set on fire in the 6700 block of Fall Creek Parkway, North Drive. Johnson, they say, was a sweet and funny young man who liked to dress as a woman, fooling his dates. They suspect one of them became enraged upon learning the truth and killed Johnson and his female friend.

They were murdered by Paul Moore and Curtis Ward, and they enlisted Paul’s half-brother, Clarence McGee to help cover up their deaths.

What’s scary is that this article in the Indianapolis Star seems to blame Nireah, not the killers, for her death. Just because you’re upset that someone fooled you does not give you the right to kill them and their friends.

Borders Follow Up

Here’s the message I sent to Borders at this website URL:
“I have a question about something I read online at this website:
http://www.local6.com/news/2357475/detail.html
“According to this article, a woman who criticized George Bush was banned from the Fredericksburg Virginia store. Is this true? I spent over $1,000 at Borders last year. I hate George Bush. I’ve said much worse about him than just that he “has chicken legs.” I think he’s a moron and he’s trashing our country. Will I be banned from your stores? Is this an official policy? Is the manager of the Fredericksburg store going to be directed to apologize to Julia Rose for violating her right to free speech? I won’t be spending another cent of my money in any of your stores until I hear from you regarding this matter….”

Top Ten Conservative Idiots

for this week, courtesy of Democratic Underground. Highlights this week: relatives of 9-11 casualties are upset by the report on 9-11 failures; specifically on what was left out to cover the ass of the Bush Administration. Also Condoleeza Rice keeps contradicting herself, and Bush descrates the American Flag. And a woman who said she didn’t like Bush’s “chicken legs” got banned from Borders Bookstore. Interesting. Since I spent over $1,000 at Borders last year, and I’ve called Bush every name there is. I think I’ll be writing to tell them that.

Young Republicans Admit Being Racist

At a weekend pep rally in Washington, a thousand college Republicans clap, cheer and party — and reveal a troubling dark side. And I quote: “How am I a closet Democrat? I’m racist, I love guns and I hate welfare.” And that’s not the worst of their commentary; read the complete article for some truly frightening shit coming from the next generation.

“But the idea of being forced to contribute to a broader civic good makes him livid. Taxes, he insisted, should be abolished. Who, then, will build things like roads? “Coca Cola should be building roads just to get exposure,” Sibeni said.”

U. S. Army Commits War Crimes

According to the Washington Post: “Col. David Hogg, commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 4th Infantry Division, said tougher methods are being used to gather the intelligence. On Wednesday night, he said, his troops picked up the wife and daughter of an Iraqi lieutenant general. They left a note: “If you want your family released, turn yourself in.” Such tactics are justified, he said, because, “It’s an intelligence operation with detainees, and these people have info.” They would have been released in due course, he added later.”

Another Reason to Vote for Dean in ’04

Check out Kasey, Howard Dean’s “Director of Canine Outreach.” Also, check out all the other “Pets for Dean.”
Kasey is heading up the “Dean vs. Bush-Cheney Fundraising Challenge” where they are attempting to match Bush’s fundraising for a set period of time. Looks like they’re doing well: “Oh, somewhere in Green Mountain land the sun is shining bright. The blogs are buzzing blithely, and Trippi�s heart is light. A Governor is smiling, and all his interns shout. But there is no joy for Cheney; As mighty Kasey strikes him out.”
My new kitties approve!

WTC Attacks: Saudi Government Helped Al-Qaeda, Bush Refused to Investigate

Key things that the Bush Administration tried to keep out of yesterday’s report: 1) The Bush Administration knew there were extensive ties between the Saudi government, which we support with lots of $$$, and the Al-Qaeda terrorists. 2) Bush received an intelligence memo in May of 2001 that warned of the coming 9-11 attacks.
Michael Moore was on a talk show recently, suggesting that we know exactly where Osama bin Laden (remember him?) is… but that he’s being put up in a posh hotel owned by the Saudi government, and paid for by our government. And that we can’t (and don’t dare) touch him, because doing so would expose all the connections between our government, the Saudi government, and Al-Qaeda, and how we’ve sold our soul for Saudi Oil. Think about that for a minute — if one of your family died at the World Trade Center, and your government is paying the hotel bill for their killer.
No wonder we’re trying to bomb Saddam Hussein. Because we don’t dare call attention to Saudi Arabia.

Canadian Idol

I’m sorry but the phrase “Canadian Idol” just doesn’t have the same ring to it. It sounds too much like “Canadian Bacon.” Plus, the contestants look like what you would get if you had, say, “Indiana Idol.” They are quite average-looking people. Apparently American has more than it’s fair share of hotties.
