Warrentless Wiretapping

#112030 wow I’m surprised anyone but a liberal fan boy would post on this.  But seriously people what crimes has Bush committed.  Starting a war?? no… reacting to a direct attack on the US sure… Attacking Iraq?? no simply acting on the sanctions put forth in the past which were repeatedly violated (namely rockets with too great a range.) and which his predecessors lacked the courage to wade through the constant assaults on his character and finish something that should have been over with in the Clinton or Bush Sr. presidency.  NO WE DID NOT INVADE IRAQ FOR NUCLEAR WEAPONS. but we did find them contrary to what the largely LIBERAL media wants you to believe.  Election fraud?? doubtful but no provable either way.. but you problem with the election results shouldn’t be based on the outcome so much as the process for which it is obtained… seriously win most of a state get all the votes...seems kind of archaic.  Why not if i win 2 regions of a hypothetical state that gets 5 electoral votes, i get 2 votes who ever won the other 3 regions gets those 3… seems logical..that way you have a more accurate outlook on how states want to vote.. so no more of the people in Florida that were too stupid (sorry but they were) to fill out a simple ballot that 1st graders were able to.

I apologize for not putting that into paragraphs but i have to get to work...typing this up on the fly

Olberman is one of best there is in reporting the news as it is and challenging all who lie, deceive and give us false reports. I wouldn’t miss his nightly reports on the crimes commited by this Administration. Come on America, awaken to the fact that there are few reporters who will stand up for our country and for our Constitution--Olberman for President.

Hurray for Keith Olbermann, he is a patriot and worth two of the US Congress and all of the mainstream media. Olbermann for president!!!!

Sometimes we need to look back in time to see how ridiculous certain practices and procedures are. 

The Franciscan Monks took detailed notes regarding the torture of those suspected of being witches during the inquisition.  See, witches were the “terrorists” of their time and were believed responsible for every bad thing that could befall a community.

We don’t have to guess as to what happened but can read the exact words, centuries old, which tell us what they did and that torture does not work!

If you waterboard someone they will do the following:

1. Confess to being a witch.

2. Confess to riding around on a broom or stick.

3. Confess to the charge of being able to change into an animal like a cat or a dog.

4. Confess to being part of a conspiracy whereas they have meetings with the Devil where they sing, dance, have orgies and plan mayhem.

5. Confess that they control the weather and are thus responsible for ships lost at sea.

I’ve read many of these confessions and the saddest ones are clearly the ones where the people have no idea as to what a witch does.  They were tortured beyond description until they came up with something to satisfy their tormentors. 

The state, whether secular or not, loves confessions.  It loves to see it own brutality justified by these fanciful tales.

The question now is: what are we the people going to do about it?

No one else in the media speaks the truth and calls and confronts the Bush Administration for all of the lies deceptions and illegal activity that has been going on in the White House since 2000. Keith is a American hero. Keep speaking the truth. The rest of the media doesn’t seems to have the balls to do so, especially the Democrats.

we should legalize prostitution in this country...not for the men and women who actually do that. because we have politicians who are the biggest ones of all...keith keep up the good work…

Daniel Levin’s self-sacrifice and for that matter Keith Olbermann’s commentary heroism will be largely ignored by the zombie populace of this country. Whether it is an economic collapse from the staggering fiscal debt we cannot possibly avoid or morally bankrupt people in control of the government or a combination of these things, we are seeing the start of the end of this great experiment. For those who paid attention during History class, nothing is finite and this so called empire is going to fall under the weight of it’s own corruption and decay. And unfortunately, considering all of the suffering that has already taken place due to our ignorance and hubris, it’s really only the beginning of the collapse.

Senators Schumer & Feinstein have joined the republican lite crowd.Rather then stand up for what, in the pre-Bu$h years was taken for granted, that america does not torture like some 3rd world country. They have joined Lieberman in enabling these criminals to continue our race away from everything america once stood for. We have lost our morale compass as a nation under these thugs in charge. When our soldiers are captured in any of the Cheney/Bu$h wars for profit they will be tortured and we will have no right to condemn it. An indictment of these criminals is the only way to turn this around, and voting out of office any of those politicians who have enabled them to continue must be a part of that process as well.

If someone could just trick Bush into an illicit
sexual act in the Oval Office, there would be grounds to impeach!  Sadly, that’s the only meaning attached to the words honor and integrity these days.  That’s what Bush has restored to government, honor and integrity.  The American people are so focused on the religious right version of honor and integrity which only involves sex, that they can’t see how far we’ve devolved in the last 7 years.  I so wish Canada would take more immigrants.
PS: Haha, my secret word to comment here was MORAL, another word with only sexual connotations for the religious.

I’ve posted this video to my blog and sent to friends.  This is off the charts GREAT.  Thank you, thank you, Mr. Olbermann.

The Lawyers and people of this country could take
a lesson from the Pakistanis. We all NEED to hit
the streets and DEMAND accountability!

Repeating sycophant and injurious mistakes with a smirk is NOT optimism, it’s most others definition of crazy. And the following all-too-familiar are NOT character traits:

* Grandiose sense of one’s own abilities or achievements
* Fantasies about having exceptional power, attractiveness or success
* Sense of belonging to an exclusive group of people who truly understand each other
* Need for constant praise
* Expectations of special treatment
* Exploitation of other people
* Lack of empathy for other people
* Envy of other people or a belief that you are the subject of other people’s envy
* Haughty or arrogant behaviors

They are symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. And likely just part of a bigger malady called Bu$Co.

Maybe one day, Olbermann will get to causes beyond symptoms of diseased democracy, though I’m not holding my breath. Keith thinks government is merely a matter of litigation, of somehow abiding by Constitutional law, which he thinks isn’t really a function of political interest.

In short, Olbermann is a moderate to conservative liberal who still doesn’t get it. (He appears liberal only in the context of intensely conservative media.) Democracy isn’t simply a matter of rule of law, which comes only AFTER establishing participatory, democracy, wherein all are equal at an ECONOMIC level, and wherein media types wouldn’t exist to engage in talking down, interested only espousing their own (self-interested) opinions, not in the least in reading or hearing your own. Like every other commentator, conservative or liberal, he doesn’t get that America was never structured as a participatory democracy. Hell, even George Will knows that much!

The whole point, Mr. Olbermann, is the wielding over power over so-called “masses.” In our particularly clever case, mostly using carrot instead of stick. Carrot amounts only to promise of American Dream, realizable by a few, only because not realizable by most, and vice versa.

Not MSNBC, not Olbermann, not any in mainstream media, can be bothered with reality beyond legalities (legalisms), which of course are subject to interpretation by judges who, for the most part, can interpret the same law in a host of different ways, depending on their political perspectives and/or loyalties.

What liberals and conservatives alike refuse to admit is that ours is not only merely a REPUBLIC, but otherwise merely a capitalist “democracy.” Which is how come media pundits like Olbermann are interested only in talking down to you, while they can’t really be bothered with your own opinions, most especially if yours is more informed than theirs.

And which is how come Bush/Cheney worry not in the least what pundits say, because they DO get it: especially that the left in general has proven itself lame, most particularly liberal leftists dreaming of identification and charity (for which Orwell had no use either), fully accepting conservative philosophy as expressed in social Darwinist ideology, while hoping only to ameliorate effects of brutality that stems from acceptance of that philosophy of “human nature.”

It’s all very nice to tut-tut this and tut-tut that, but thus far, and over my almost 60 years, not a wit of doing that has made a wit of difference. Ike was more honest and upfront than anyone since, and he was a Republican. At least he didn’t engage in the imaginary, yammering of legal niceties, as he understood perfectly the nature of the beast, for what it actually is: a state constituted of a military-industrial complex, by now on steroids.

So thanks, Keith, but get serious, man, along with rest of pundits, all of whom are making way too-good a living while thinking they get it, when they don’t remotely get it. Ya’ll can talk to one another on our screens, more or less well-informed, amongst yourselves, while the rest of us try to get by on less than a mil a month, and without recourse to or concern for legal niceties, assuming those might amount to a little more than looking to score the dream via tort.
Will Hillary be better than Bush? Not much. Same with the rest of candidates, so pitiful have we become, while we continue to spend up a storm with that ultimate upper-class weapon, the credit card.

How about something like a REAL commentary on possible CAUSES?

Thank God for Levin, for Olberman. Schumer and Feinstein have showed their true nature. We won’t forget that when it was time to stand up and be counted,
they turned into rats and ran down into a sewer, to join the Great Destroyer himself, GWB.

ah gee what a surprise!
