Unintended Consequences
Sooooooooo, has anyone given any thought to what is going on in Northern Iraq these days? The turks aren’t big fans of ours anymore and the Kurds aren’t big fans of the turks (I think). The kurds want independence and some things are lining up to get a little hairy (if I understand the situation […]
Bush Violates His Own Executive Order
It didn’t take long for W to violate his own order to seize property of persons or entities that undermine our efforts in Iraq.

Those damn Irani, wait, Syrian, wait Saudi Insurgents
Now, Bush administration officials are voicing increasing anger at what they say has been Saudi Arabia’s counterproductive role in the Iraq war.

The American officials in Iraq also say that the majority of suicide […]
“I’ll do another 15 months, if George Bush will come do it with me…”

Take A Stand, Mike Castle
Today was the protest against Mike Castles’ empowerment of Goerge Bush and his foolhardy escapade in Iraq. There were between 30 and 40 people in attendance including me on my lunch break and Nancy Willing. Michael Berg was there and I assume that Kavips was there, but stayed incognito. The best part was when Castle […]

I was asking because […]
