From this day forth--the Repuglicans on the House Judiciary Committee can be known only as “pimps” for “men4men” gay prostitutes. In their negligence and in attempts to cover up for the White House, they've denied an investigation into Jeff Gannon's “press pass” access to the White House. It leaves one wondering who knew Jeff Gannon, why was he granted free access to what has heretofore been considered one of the most secure locations in the world, and exactly who was taking advantage of the “other” services Gannon provided??? If Clinton had been in the White House, F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr., Repuglican chairman of the committee, would have been all over this like stink on shit.

It's amazing how those Repuglicans are out and about touting the horrors of steroid use in baseball, yet they proudly praise the most notorious admitted steroid abuser of all times, their boy, the druginator, Aunuld! While baseball greats are chastised for using drugs and called inferior roll models for our children, Aunuld is promoted as a man who saw his dream and knew exactly how to attain it! Another example of how the Repuglicans like to have their cheesecake, but blast someone else's out of the oven!

Some World Bank staff and some member governments fear that Mr. Wolfowitz - an advocate of the muscular spread of democracy - would use his position to change its focus from development aid to a wider political mission, the BBC's Justin Webb reports from Washington.” Why the hell else do you think he was appointed?? What do the Bushies know other than political muscle and monetary blackmail? They muscled their way into the government, they muscled mainstream media into compliance, and they've muscled Democracy out the door. It's encouraging to note though, that not everyone in the world is as dumbed down as half the American population! There may be hope for our future after all. Wouldn't it be ironic if the French once again saved America?

The recent tragic events at the Fulton County Court House in Atlanta, Georgia offered America a glimpse into what could happen nationwide. George Bush talks the talk, but he doesn't provide America with the necessary components to protect its citizens. We need leadership that believes in America first and foremost, someone who means what he says and does what he promises on Homeland Security.

No matter how much the Bush administration and mainstream media sing the praises of Paul Wolfowitz and his qualifications to head the World Bank, I can't help but remember the scene in “Fahrenheit 9-11” showing Wolfowitz licking his comb and then combing his hair. It was disgusting and one of the more nauseating characteristics that shows he certainly isn't qualified for the world renowned position. And let us not forget, he is the architect of the war in Iraq. The one who said we'd be “greeted with flowers and song,” that Iraq could pay for its reconstruction with oil revenues, that there were Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq, etc. etc. etc. As Undersecretary of Defense, when questioned by Congress, he conveniently claimed he “didn't know” the number of troops who had given their lives in the Iraqi war! Bush wants Wolfowitz at the World Bank because he wants a trusted henchman to conduct blackmail on countries that need the monies supplied by the bank for survival.

All the ducks are being lined up! Looks as though Bush is positioning himself even further to take over the world. Appointing Wolfowitz to head up the World Bank is just another step on the ladder! 

* * *

Oh for a leadership that knows what they're doing.  Oh for someone smarter than dirt to run the government. I look around at the waste and destruction brought about by a bunch of lunatics who think they're talking to God, and I can't help but think in a normal world these kind of people would be taken away by the men in white coats for immediate treatment in the nearest mental facility. 

* * *

George Bush has no plan for Social Security--another non-issue born of the need to intentionally confuse the American people! What exactly are they covering up with all this hoopla that's going nowhere? You can't trust a jumbled word that America's president has to say.
