traitors
So doesn't
this story in the NYT mean that someone in the Bush White House should be going to jail for treason. And since Bush either 1) knew about it and let the traitor have access to other secrets, he should be impeached OR 2) Bush didn't know about it and is imcompetent and should be impeached..
Time magazine said today that it would provide documents concerning the confidential sources of one of its reporters to a grand jury investigating the disclosure of the identity of a covert C.I.A. agent, Valerie Plame.
Heck, they might get to go to ClubGitmo. I hate a traitor like I hate a white collar criminal. Oh someone leak the traitor's name so I can get my lynching on.
Plame
mmm, what's the recipe?!
Wonkette reports that USAToday reports that:
[KBR] managers ordered workers to pick bullets and shrapnel out of food shipments that had been damaged by gunfire or bombings and serve it to troops.
Man Haliburton REALLY supports da troops!
PFC Jones: What's for Dinner?
Cookie: Shrapnel!
PFC Jones: AGAIN?!Three Hots and a Flop. See the world. Why was recruitment off again?

a copy of the email I just sent those scum bags at Nike
Details of what my rant is about:
HERESince you parasitic slugs feel ok about stealing the cover of MINOR THREAT's album to pimp your godawful sneakers I will feel a certain glee everytime I hear of someone making black market versions of your same slave-labor generated footwear.
After some clickedy-clicking this is what their automaton generated:

SunCom Sucks Donkey
After repeated attempts to use the piss poor patchwork of half-assed customer service at my wireless company I left the following passive-aggressive message at their online comments:
I find it interesting that I get bills from Suncom, you leave me voice mails on my phone but when I try to logon (register) as a SunCom customer to pay my bill it says I am not your customer. When I call the phone # on my SUNCOM bill I get in contact with the Cingular person who cannot assist me because I am a SUNCOM customer.
#1. you have my last name spelled incorrectly. It's [DOOMBILLY] just like it was spelled when you took my account over from Cingular/ATT.
#2. 90% of the time I cannot connect to anyone on my SunCom cell phone from my home address. I can connect on Alltel, Sprint, Verizon, and Nextel on much crappier phone models than my motorolla v600. How about spending LESS money hiring Harry Connick Jr to tell me how friggin' great you are -and MORE money actually doing something about the pathetic tower network you have? I tried to call the # left on my cell you left in regards to my bill; HOWEVER after 30 minutes of NO SERVICE being displayed on my phone I decided, you probably didn't need the money.
Please have someone contact me on my BellSouth land line at 704-xxx-xxxx since neither your online site or your phone system seem to be working AND the numbers you provide in your billing go to helpless individuals at Cingular.

If Deep Throat Was a Blogger?
This posting by Michael Gartenburg posits that had the break in at the Watergate complex happened today the information would be in different formats. Derrr.
This is because technology and the way we get the news has changed. Of course, the news of Julius Ceasar's or President Garfield's demises would have been transmitted in a different way if it happened today too.
I think the more important fact is that today "if" the chief executive of the United States were routinely and frivolously committing or promoting felonious behavior amongst his staff that...
1) No one in the FBI would rat him out. Everyone with that kind of ethical sack (and knowledge of the wrongdoing) has already left the building.
2) The news media would not cover it. They have been burnt by so many plagiarist Jayson Blairs and (at least from my perspective) fed bogus or "unverifyable" news stories that their credibility is too strained to be risking another Dan Rather/NewsWeek type foible.
The fact is, The
Washington Post put their necks out there publishing the Watergate story. Nixon was immensely popular when he was re-elected in 1972. He was also incredibly
vindictive. The only people that
could stand to break a story like this today are folks with nothing else to lose.
[hypothetical] Once bloggers and journalists become synonymous, they lose their guerilla advantage. If after the Tet offensive in 1968 the
NVA had changed to a more standard, Western Style convention means to oust the Americans from Indo-China, they would have surely been beaten. If Al Queada decided to give up suicide bombings for building a Carrier fleet and a space based missile defense system we would be done over there by the the 4th of July. If Che Guevara...
oh you get it. bloggergate
who is safe now?
Wonkette is reporting a tip that some Washington office of the
DOJ has been "quarantined."
We should probably just go ahead and attack Iran based on that alone.
I mean, it would be irresponsible for a QUOTE
real journalist UNQUOTE to report something like that. But it is certainly ok for a chief executive of the United States to take us to war based on hearsay. I'm kidding of course. That would never happen. I mean, read the quote
below. It's crystal clear that..um. My head hurts.
hearsay
WTF does this mean?
President Bush:
It seemed like to me they based some of their decisions on the word of -- and the allegations -- by people who were held in detention, people who hate America, people that had been trained in some instances to disassemble -- that means not tell the truth.
asshat talking
