HURRICANE KATRINA
Poor New Orleans.
I am writing this early evening Sunday August 28.
I have always wanted to visit The Big Easy.
Go to Mardi Gras.
But the gigantic Hurricane Katrina is almost certain to destroy this sweet, old city.
May New Orleans not suffer long.
May the destruction be less than predicted.
May there be zero deaths.

BUSH IS HANGING LOOSE
On Meet The Press (8-21-05)Trent Lott (R-MS) said that "we" are winning in Iraq.
He said that we must get some "dividends" back from the "investment" of dead soldiers and the money already spent in the Iraq war.
Trent Lott said that he agrees with Bush: Stay the Course.
"We are being helpful and assisting them.
We are seeking eventually is freedom and democracy for them.
It does raise the specter are we doing enough?
I think we've got to be committed in seeing this through."
On people wanting to have democracy:
"I think it's a visceral thing with people...they're willing to make sacrifices for democracy. The appeal of freedom and democracy is very strong."
Meanwhile, The Commander of War said “We’re hanging loose.”
Did he mean “We’re a hanging noose” ?

ASSASSINATION NOT WAR
Pat Robertson for president in 2008!
Here is a man with a head on his shoulders.
Instead of spending billions and billions to attack and invade a country, just snuff the leader.
In this instance, the leader is Hugo Chavez, president of Venezuela.
The U.S. invaded Iraq and
thousands and thousands of its civilians have been killed.
15,000 to 42,500 American soldiers have been wounded.
As of August 23, 2005 1,871 Americans have been killed.
At least 70 Americans have been killed in August of this year.
The United States should have liquidated Saddam Hussein and his sons rather than have its pre-emptive war.
Why didn't Bush (or Bush I and Clinton) do this?
The answer my friends is not blowing in the wind.
It is flowing beneath the earth.

MY WAR WAS NOT FOR OIL!
George W. Bush:
"Let me straighten you fellows out.
My shock and awe destruction of Iraq had nothing to do with getting reconstruction contracts to any of my friends or Dick's.
We wanted to rid Iraq of their Weapons of Mass Destruction..."
Aide:
"Uh...Mr. President. That won't work.
The public found out that we were fabricating and misleading them on the WMDs."
George W. Bush:
"Sure...that's right.
There wasn't none of those WMDs.
We bombed Iraq because of those Taliban and Al-Queda monsters."
Aide:
"Uh...Sir. That won't hold water either.
The Taliban and Al-Queda were in Afghanistan."
George W. Bush
"Sure. I knew that.
So we bombed Iraq to help Iraq get some democracy and freedom fries.
O.K. What's up?
Are we evacuating?
Are we bombing Iran yet?"
Aide:
"No sir.
Marine 1 (presidential helicopter) is here. You're due to start your vacation at Crawford."
George W. Bush
"Yeah.
Have to go find me armadillos, clean some brush and chop the wood."
Aide:
"Yes sir."
George W. Bush
"Fine.
Bring 'em on.
I'm ready to roll.
Let's go smoke 'em out.
Dead or alive.
Push those gas prices up.
Bless Haliburton and Carlyle!"

PILL-PUSHING DICTATORSHIP
It is no wonder that a dictatorship is forming before our hoodwinked eyes.
Americans are drugged on (you name it!) this drug and that drug among thousands of pharmaceuticals from here to eternity.
There are some holdouts who still inhale an evil and dangerous green plant called marijuana.
There's the methamphetamine plague.
(And let's not forget the inhalers of paint.)
In addition to the drugging of America there is the Television whose programs titillate and tranquilize with mesmerizing feelies and funnies.
No wonder the current administration is doing just as it damn pleases.
Americans have become drugged and dazed zombies.
It is true that many sleepers are waking up to the shenanigans and deceptions in the House of Bush.
But it may be too late.
[P.S.-I realize that there are many life-saving and pain-relieving drugs which are nothing short of miraculous.]

NO MORE SHOCK AND AWE!
Iran's new president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, would love to see the Great Satan fall.
He may get his opportunity IF the United States invades his country.
Bush is trigger-happy once again.
His foot is on the pedal and his options are once again on the table.
THE WORLD DOES NOT WANT megalomaniacal George W. Bush to start another war.
How can we stop Bush this time?
Will the U.S. Congress put their foot down this time?
Enough is enough.
“Peace Out” as some young people say.
But…
“A little rebellion now and then is a good thing.” (Thomas Jefferson)

THE ARMAGEDDON CLAN
If you think Iraq is bad, wait until you see what insanity and devastation will result from a war with Iran.
The Armageddon Clan in this White House will probably do anything now.
If you think the prices at the gas pump are high now, wait until this president "knocks off" another regime.
Most Americans don't seem to care, or believe that they are powerless to prevent Bush, Cheney, Rice & Rumsfeld from continuing their Oil-Hegemony-Regime-Change War Plans.
Here’s more sad, shocking news to awe readers:
From "The Ironies of Conquest" by Micahel Schwartz/Mother Jones magazine/August 9, 2005:
Recently, former CIA official Philip Giraldi asserted in the American Conservative magazine that, as of late summer 2005, the Pentagon, "under instructions from Vice President Dick Cheney's office," was "drawing up a contingency plan to be employed in response to another 9/11-type terrorist attack on the United States. The plan mandates a large-scale air assault on Iran employing both conventional and tactical nuclear weapons…. As in the case of Iraq, the response is not conditional on Iran actually being involved in the act of terrorism directed against the United States." The breadth and depth of the assault, according to Giraldi's Air Force sources, would be quite striking: "Within Iran there are more than 450 major strategic targets, including numerous suspected nuclear-weapons-program development sites. Many of the targets are hardened or are deep underground and could not be taken out by conventional weapons, hence the nuclear option." Since many targets are in populated areas, the havoc and destruction following such an attack would, in all likelihood, be unrivaled by anything since Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
No doubt the Pentagon has been mapping these strategic targets for their Cruise missiles.
Time for some soothing music.

CREEPY NEWS
I saw a new invention on TV.
It's called a dog thong.
Its purpose is to filter dog farts.
(Notice that I am politically incorrect and didn't euphemize with canine flatulence.)
It costs 20 dollars.
You put this thing on the dog's rear end.
Of course, it covers the area where the dog farts [i.e. emits the canine flatulence].
The dog thong has a carbon filter (comparable to what soldiers wear to protect against chemical attacks.)
I guess you can take this thing off for awhile after your dog has done his or her duty.
America.
What a country!
We invent and sell everything!

INSANITY
"The situation needs to be turned as quickly as possible into one in which the US is not fighting the Iraqis, and neither are Iraqis. Expecting the Iraqis to bludgeon themselves into a democratic society is preposterous. The present conflict can only be resolved by turning the whole matter over to a UN peacekeeping force that does not contain any Americans, and that does not continue to set the Iraqi people against each other."
[From "Seeing Our Way Out Of Iraq" by Terrell E. Arnold, Retired Senior Foreign Service Officer and former Chairman of the Department of International Studies of the National War College.]
I have been banging the keys about Bush & Co and the Iraq war for some time.
The above paragraph is sensible, but Bush is senseless and faithful to the PetroPentagonCorporate powers which he bends his knees to.
Forget about any higher deity.
The deity of George W. Bush is Money, Power and Hubris.
Bush, our president of War, is rattling his options about Iran on his imperial table, and Iraq may have to take a backseat to the American-assisted Israeli first strike on Iran.
Just as Afghanistan took a backseat to Iraq, Iraq may have to take a backseat to Iran.
Is a person close to being insane when they continue to do something that they know is wrong?
How close is George W. Bush?

IN A HAND BASKET GOING TO HELL
At his news conference in Brussels George W. Bush made a crowd laugh. He said, "This notion that the United States is getting ready to bomb Iran is simply ridiculous." Then he added: "Having said that, all options are on the table."
Sound familiar? Remember when George W. Bush tried to be funny at the 60th annual dinner of the Radio and Television Correspondents' Association: "Those weapons of mass destruction have got to be here somewhere."
If George W. Bush does bomb Iran, as some pundits believe he will, thereby once AGAIN ignoring allies who are trying to deal with Iran diplomatically, then it will give more credibility to the perception by some that George W. Bush is becoming quite as dangerous as the terror he has vowed to protect us from, and that he is placing our nation in even greater peril.
After Iran is bombed, that leaves just one more country in the Evil Axis, North Korea. However, they do not have any petroleum, just nukes, and George W. Bush does not want their nukes.
This next impending and bellicose blunder by George W. Bush is certain to fling more gas on the flaming hatred and burgeoning jihad of Islam, and is certain to make Usama bin Laden an even happier happy camper.
Many years ago I was told by an engineer who worked for a major corporation that developed "stuff" which the Pentagon then launched into space, "You wouldn’t believe the things we have up there." When I repeatedly asked him "What things?" he repeatedly told me that he could not tell me. He said, "They would know if I told you." The conversation ended when he said, "We are all in a hand basket going to hell. I just want to go back to my farm."
Most of us cannot go back to the farm. Nevertheless, George W. Bush will be locking America up in an implacable hand basket, impelled by stubborn hubris, a leaden ego, and bellicose bravado if he gives us another war. Bring the troops home.

THE PRICE OF A SODA
The discovery of electricity.
Men learning to fly in machines.
Men who landed on the Moon.
Machines that went to Mars.
The first computer.
And now...
The price barrier for sodas out of a vending machine has been broken.
The 50 cent soda is no more.
11 August 2005.
Sodas are now 60 cents where I work.
I do not remember when sodas were 25 cents.
I can barely remember when a McDonald's hamburger was 15 cents.
But it seems like the price for a soda from a vending machine has been 50 cents forever.
It made me think that the price of oil triggered this.
Or maybe I am just too much of a sentimentalist who cannot face inflation or reality.

PREPARE TO LIVE ON MARS
George W. Bush signed the Energy Bill.
It is a fiasco.
Mr. Bush once again has given to the RICH and taken from the POOR.
His "corporate friends" will receive $15 billion in tax breaks.
Most of the energy bill perpetuates the usage of petroleum and increases the development of nuclear energy, when what this country really requires is research and DEVELOPMENT with the desperate rapidity of a Manhattan or Moon project.
Bush wants to squeeze out every drop and dollar of oil. He doesn't wish to anger his Arabian boyfriends
Forget any emergency-like crash program to give the nation alternative "miracles".
The "energy war" is like the "war on drugs": UNWINNABLE as long as the status quo is maintained.
In the meantime, Americans must buy more efficient vehicles and conserve more.
And prepare to live on Mars.

THE PERPETUALLY RECALCITRANT BUSH
According to a recent AP-IPSO poll, only 38% of the American public now support George W. Bush's war in Iraq.
I predicted at the start of this full-of-lies PRE-EMPTIVE WAR that it would fail.
It is failing.
Military analysts and senior Pentagon planners now indicate that it is unwinnable.
But the recalcitrant cowboy Bush says otherwise:
"We will stay the course, we will finish the job in Iraq."
Bush uses cliches to support his belief:
"STAY THE COURSE" (Man, aren't we tired of hearing this one?)
And:
"FINISH THE JOB."
A savage war is not just another job.
These increasingly dire but banal Bushisms define a man whose heart and soul are not really contained in the words that he uses.
The roar of the winds against this war are going to get stronger and stronger.
This administration may continue to "stay the course" in this war, but the course of humanity is going to judge this war and its country's leaders as the most shameful and horrible ones in its brief history.

VACATION AGAIN AT THE CRAWFORD RANCH
"I really like it here.
I feel like I am living in a slice of Heaven."
George W. Bush
Yes, I suppose Bush does.
After all, he has spent almost one year at his ranch since occupying the Oval Office for four and one-half years.
It took President Reagan eight years to accumulate one year of vacation.
Aren't we just a little jealous?
During this WAR ON TERROR and this STRUGGLE AGAINST GLOBAL EXTREMISM, it is only natural to want another vacation.
This terror business is stressful.
Spreading democracy is stressful.
Let this war president have plenty of rest.
He needs his batteries fully charged in case there is the need of another pre-emptive war.
Time for some pretzels!

WE DESTROYED A COUNTRY TO SAVE IT
Would the United States of America ever use nuclear weapons to stop another country from developing their own nuclear weapons?
Don't put it past George W. Bush or Ariel Sharon.
In July 2003 Prime Minister Sharon showed Bush photos and other intelligence on Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
Israel’s interests are our interests, and vice versa.
Some even allege that Israel is pulling the strings.
General Brent Scowcroft, national security adviser to George H. W. Bush, said that Sharon has George W. Bush “wrapped around his little finger.” (It is actually a pretty big, little finger.)
The most far-out theories are that Israel wanted (or took part in 9-11) and was also a very influential factor for the pre-emptive attack on Iraq.
Let us hope that another pre-emptive war does not lurk behind the furtive smiles of Cheney, Bush, Rice and Rumsfeld.
But rumors have indicated that Cheney’s office has made contingency plans for a large-scale attack on Iran if there is another terrorist attack on the United States.
The contingency plans indicate that tactical nuclear weapons would be used to destroy hardened underground nuclear facilities.
It would be a very dangerous action.
What would Russia and China then do?
[Note: The NIE or National Intelligence Estimate has concluded that Iran will not have enough highly enriched uranium to produce a nuclear weapon until 2010-15.]

CLONING
Cloning is a bad idea.
There are too many orphan dogs that need to be adopted.
If God wanted us to clone, don't you think He would have given this law to Moses?
How far can all of this go?
Armies of clones?
Yep.
You can bet your bottom dollar that like everything else that science discovers, there will eventually be a military application.
I personally find that one of me is quite enough.
I also love my dog too much to replace her with a duplicate.
It demeans the existence and being of the original animal or person.
Life has no repeat performances.
I am opposed to cloning.
Now send in the clowns.
