Brad, stop impugning the Bush administration's integrity. You'll hurt their feelings. We have to go to war with the president we have, not the president we voted for.

Vanity Fair Editor Tears George A New One On Fox News (video) michaelmoore.com

Imagine if the exit polls had shown Kerry with an even bigger lead - we might have been able to enjoy the spectacle of a 100 millon dollar inaugural!

$50,000,000 to coronate a mass murdering war criminal, all of which should have been seized as compensation for all the people and families in Iraq who have been maimed and murdered by Bush's oil & gas war!

Whoever would spend $250,000 to have lunch with a traitor is a traitor!

How about spending $50,000,000 on independently investigating and prosecuting the White House role in the attacks of September 11, 2001, along with their buddies in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, the Milititary Industrial Complex, and the global multinational energy empire who are the prime beneficiaries of Bush & Company fraud schemes!

Sure would like to know why they're locking up and hiding all those people in Cuba and oh, by the way, what do all those computer files and other papers confiscated with them have to say about who knew what, when, and where? Of course, that's all national security stuff...just trust us...we're your government and we know what's right for you and we'll tell you what you need to know and when! RIGHT!

Keep that bag tight Mr. Bush, sure wouldn't want to let the cat out!

If you haven't already, check out the Michael Moore site. There's a great video of a FOX interview with (I think her name is Judy Backarach, of Vanity Fair - sp?, I know I'm a terrible speller). She really let em have it over the inaugural balls, all the money spent at a time of war when our soldiers are sitting over in Iraq like sitting ducks without proper protection. I love it! People are starting to speak out. Come on everybody...!!

Oopps, sorry Nana, on scrolling up I see you already mentioned the Vanity Fair thing at Michael Moore site. That's me, a day late, and a dollar short...

Horkus, you always make me smile and quite often I LOL. And Freebird, you keep us honest, thoughtfilled, and educate with such eloquence. Nana, you provide great sites. And Phil, if we count what passed *under* the tables, it was probably well over 100 million. Thanks everyone for being there. Thanks to Brad for our home away from home.

An excellent article by Thom Hartmann today.

Let's Bring Tea

Aware that we usually post sites with, perhaps, an excerpted paragraph or two, thought I'd push things a bit and include the entire article. I'm hoping that "fair use" will suffice for redistribution, and that all of you at Bradblog will be lenient with me for bending the rules a bit.

The Inaugural Ball: Dancing with Wolves
by Susan Lenfestey

 "It's time to party.

As the families of bomb-flattened Fallujah huddle in make-shift refugee camps, drinking from sewage-filled streams, Iraqi policy mastermind Paul Wolfowitz fastens the last stud into his starched collar.

As the Iraq Survey Group ends its search for WMD, concluding that there was no imminent mushroom cloud or even a smoking gun, Condi Rice draws herself a hot bath.

As Sgt. Kevin Benderman, an Army mechanic with nine years of service, refuses a second deployment to Iraq, saying "you just don't know how bad it is," Colin Powell pours himself a drink.

As Specialist Charles A. Graner, miscreant and major-domo of Abu Ghraib, shuffles off to prison, Donald Rumsfeld straightens the black tie of his tux.

As the 9/11 widow tucks her children into bed, wondering why the recommendations made in the 9/11 Commission Report weren't implemented, Tom Ridge tightens his cummerbund.

As prisoners charged with no crimes, and given no recourse, languish in the hellhole of Guantanamo Bay, torture apologist Alberto Gonzales clicks his cufflinks into place.

As Dan Rather retires in disgrace over forged documents, former CIA Director George Tenet, proponent of forged documents about Iraq's nonexistent nuclear program, adjusts the Medal of Freedom around his neck.

As the working mother in Chicago wonders how to keep her child from being left behind now that her special-ed program has been cut, Armstrong Williams polishes his shoes.

As Valerie Plame walks away from a distinguished career as a CIA "operative," destroyed when her identity was revealed by columnist Robert Novak, Mr. Novak walks to his limo.

As Osama bin Laden chuckles in his cave to see America's fortunes sink in the morass of Iraq and as fresh recruits to his cause multiply like flies, Dick Cheney pops the cork on a bottle of Dom Perignon.

As America's trade gap surges and the red ink in the national debt bleeds to a record level, Treasury Secretary John Snow finishes shaving and dabs at a spot of blood on his chin.

As the Republican Congress gets ready to underfund everything from Head Start to veterans' benefits, Speaker Dennis Hastert checks his profile in the mirror.

As Pfc. Francis Obaji, oldest son of an immigrant Nigerian family, is zipped into a body bag for the sad journey home, Laura Bush zips up her Oscar de la Renta gown.

And as his corporate pals, forgetting for a moment the bottom line that forces them to ship jobs overseas, slide their millions across the table to dance at his ball, George W. Bush pulls on his snakeskin boots."

Hi Toni. Didn't know you were there, but after Nana's and your recommendation, off to Michael Moore I go. Good night everyone.

Appropriate contrasts ...

It will be 4 times worse by the time these fascists "bring freedom" to other cities like Fallujah in other nations ...

No wonder the world rejects Bushit freedom like a plague ... it is a plague.

I can only hope they realize we here in the US are also under this plague.

The antidote is consciousness and conscience.

And where is that $40 million now?
Pissed and puked away.
Oh there is some in the little trinkets they were given as guests. And some went into the pockets of the service people , such as the hairdressers who got them perfectly coiffed, and the maintenance people who cleaned up the crap they left.
But how much of the 40 mil was made at our disadvantage, if not outright stolen, when they got all their tax cuts added to their writeoffs, and left (what's left) of the middle class to bear the tax burden and the theft of their money in the stock market?

40 million bucks down the drain in one enchanted frikken' evening.

Hi Teresa! Regarding your last post, I wonder how well the service help at the hotels and restaurants made out - were I in the area, I'd try to query chambermaids, bellhops, catering help, etc. to see how generous the scrooges were with them. It's sure to be interesting, whatever the results...

You hit it, Czaragorn. They are so CHEAP that even our more advanded brains can not comprehend the magnitude. They believe that the common man deserves NOTHING. They will watch us die a slow death and the show is free.

It's just another form of the Roman Colosseum games.
