Can you imagine, an alternative “shadow” United Nations, made up of PNAC members?  Neither can I, but, folks, this is the aim of many members of the current administration.  Quietly and sometimes not so quietly the subterfuge has begun, and if peace is what you ultimately want in this world, then these guys have got to be stopped in their tracks.  The Bush administration is the best example so far of a government run amok by the likes of those whose ambition is world domination.  All I can say is, thank God, there are those who recognize this cabal for what they really are, thank you and kudos go out to the Yalies who know, the Bolton booers and hissers!!!

Don’t be fooled by Bush’s appearance---the intent here is to make him look like the “victim,” so the public will feel sorry for him because he’s been “working hard” rather than “hardly working”! The opposite of a “vacation slacker” if you will. They have intentionally left out the hair dye, and used a lighter shade of make-up for that “ashen” look to make him appear older and more haggard; he’s been coached on how to look humble and not so arrogant.  He is an image of whatever Karl Rove wants him to be, and nothing more.  This is a, brought to you by Karl Rove, portrayal of a bone weary “hard working,” tired, version of what is really an arrogant, pompous, moron who vacations more than he works!

“BUSH: If we had an outbreak somewhere in the United States, do we not then quarantine that part of the country? And how do you, then, enforce a quarantine?” “In our CNN "Security Watch," imagine millions of Americans quarantined in a deadly flu outbreak. The federal government is already considering such a scenario as concern grows over a possible bird flu epidemic. … President Bush says he's looking at a possibility [sic] military role in such an epidemic. ... President Bush today pushed a discussion on how to control a possible pandemic by having the military manage the quarantine of those infected.” Look out America, if the “bird flu” comes to your neighborhood, George Bush wants a plan in place to quarantine you and everyone who lives around you!  What’s next? Has Karl Rove taken the movie “Outbreak” seriously?  If they can’t cure you, then is the plan to bomb the hell out of you?  For God’s sake we are living in a world where madmen control our very lives. Keep in mind “infectious disease” can be passed around and the question may not be if, but how and by whom!  And just in case you haven’t noticed, “natural disasters” don’t bode well for those urban locations dubbed blue!

George Bush can sing all the praises he wants, but you have to know when an individual says something like this---“She once told me that the president was the most brilliant man she had ever met.” Harriet Miers is just another no brainer ordered up for insurance by George!  God, how long must we suffer the folly of these fools?

And with a great big WINK, WINK, and a NOD, NOD George Bush delivered his message to the far, far right!  “GEORGE W. BUSH, I nominated an outstanding individual to serve on the Supreme Court of the United States …. Harriet Miers … I've known her for more than 10 years. I know her character … She is plenty bright  …She's a woman of principle and deep conviction … I know her. I know her heart. I know what she believes.”  I sure hope some Democratic Senators and the Repuglicans to boot, took notes, because this is the same “plenty bright” woman who said, “George Bush is the most brilliant man she ever met.” And that in a nutshell doesn’t say a lot for her intelligence.

“CROWLEY:.. I sort of to myself thought he looks tired. But you know what, it's been a rugged two months.  MALVEAUX: … A lot of criticism has come down to the White House the last couple of months. We saw a man who is looking rather tired, weary of answering a lot of those tough questions. KING: … But many observers thought he seemed a bit dispirited during that news conference this morning.” Aw, poor George, he’s tired and weary---my rear end, he doesn’t look a bit different than he’s ever looked, stumbling and bumbling his way through a press conference.  Besides, for one of those two “months,” he was down on the ranch vacationing and hiding from Cindy Sheehan.  Give me a break, has CNN returned to their previous stance, are they getting “talking points” straight from the White House “source” Karl Rove?  Do they really want to see their poll ratings plummet again?  Much more of this kind of bull, and I plan to turn that knob to OFF!

A whole new angle, not being considered by mainstream corporate media---just how involved was the Repuglican National Committee in conspiring with Tom DeLay’s money laundering???  Now that could really be a “revoltin’ development” for Ken Mehlman!!!  Are the launderers as guilty as the launderee? Hmm, one can only hope that justice will prevail!
