Administration Spin of the Weather crisis

Protesters gather in Times square to protest the most recent atrocity commited by the Bush administration.


The consensus of the street agrees that dark Rovian black helicopter minions have been working feverishly over the weekend, to use their new sattellite guided global warming technology. They have successfully guided hurricane Katrina through critical oil resources, in the Gulf of Mexico. Cheney's Halliburton buddies stand to make huge profits from the impending rise in oil futures. Meanwhile, Mr. Bush's storm has been diverting critical media attention away from mother Sheehan, and her meteoric rise to international fame. Cindy's supporters claim the news will not hamper their efforts to expose the administration.

But seriously folks, all satire aside, please donate your time, money or whatever you can, to Katrina victim relief:

More on our Unwanted Guests

No I am not talking about the Mexican border. I am talking about the electronic border between our national security and the Chinese government. These are not uneducated migrants looking for work. They are highly intelligent, highly disciplined ruthless computer spies looking for nuclear secrets.

The followine Time Article by Nathan Thornburg provides further details on the attack I talked about in my previous post.

The Invasion of the Chinese Cyberspies (And the Man Who Tried to Stop Them)

If our most secure computers are this vulnerable to attack, what about our financial infrastructure? Credit cards, mutual funds, inter bank commerce could all be war targets to an enemy with intellectual horsepower, and a coordinated will.

Professional Victim Syndrome

I am so sick of PVS (Professional Victim Syndrome) that it is time for an Insolurant. If you don't think the PC thought police are here, right now, crushing every vertebrae of our Bill of Rights, then read on.

Definition

PVS (Professional Victim Syndrome) - A false condition portraying an individual or organization as a victim. Indicated by strong collaboration or association with the liberal courts, the main stream media, or both. Using resources skilled in the art of propaganda or litigation, a PVS compromised entity will use this system as a weapon of personal attack, extortion, political leverage or any combination thereof.

Abbreviated list of Examples

CAIR attack on Michael Graham

CAIR feigns grievous insult by the talk show host, while waltzing with proven terrorists. So we revile and dismiss those who expose terrorism, while organizations like CNN, cover it up to maintain news access, as they did in pre-war Iraq. How many CNN employees got fired over that one?

The Southern Poverty Law Center

In a co-conspiracy with government officials and judges, they seize the land of an American defending himself from foreign invasion. They used his own government against him, to defend criminal wetback 'victims'. Every one of those government officials violated their Constitutional oath of office.

Jesse Jackson's extortion campaign against Toyota

Jackson shakes down Toyota with boycott threats over false accusations of racial preferences.

John Edward's callous exploitation of crippled children

Edwards uses his own sick brand of courtroom theatre to trump any rational scientific view of crippled children. The real victims were the doctors that treated them, and the families that were dragged along as emotional cannon fodder.

Jesse Jackson accuses NASCAR of being a 'Bastion of White Supremacy'

NASCAR was a platinum sponsor of Jackson's 2002 Rainbow/PUSH conference. I guess the six figures of support from NASCAR wasn't enough tribute.

Jesse Jackson's Wall Street Extortion Project

NYSE finally secures some wisdom, by finally taking its hand away from the hot stove. They discovered that providing their own minority outreach effort was far more efficient.

Rush Limbaugh attacked at ESPN, accused of racism

Rush pointed out the NFL was engaging in affirmative racism instead of affirmative action. Jesse Jackson, Democratic presidential candidates Wesley Clark, Howard Dean and Joseph Lieberman all joined the sharks in the water.

NAACP Targeting private business for reparations

Say hello to unbridled extortion, with the score kept by annual business diversity report cards. The NAACP believes in forcing people who never had slaves, to surrender their hard earned wages to people who never were slaves. My grandparents were child poverty slaves in the textile mills. Can I get some reparations too?

Congressional Black Caucus conspires to destroy Trent Lott

"I want to say this about my state: When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're proud of it," Lott said. "And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over all these years, either.

That was all Trent Lott said.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton apologized for joking that Mahatma Gandhi used to run a gas station in St. Louis, saying it was "a lame attempt at humor." Unlike Trent, we all know her heart was in the right place. Yeah right.

Tawana Brawley destroys careers with outrageous fraud scheme

Smear feces on yourself, form it into racial slurs, fake your own abduction, ruin the careers of public servants and you too can still walk away. We are all still waiting for Al Sharpton's public apology for using the case as political capital. Don't hold your breath.

OJ Simpson skates off on race card

Everybody who thinks OJ was a victim of LAPD racism, raise your hands. What more can I say?

NAACP links Gov. Bush to James Byrd dragging death

The non-profit used donor money to put together a political ad that put together Gov. Bush and a monstrous hate crime. I'm so glad they are a non-partisan, non-political group righteously dedicated to their tax-exempt status.

Alan Keyes attacked by GLAAD

Alan Keys correctly points out that the majority of the Catholic priests accused of child rape, were raping young boys. I guess that makes him a homophobe.

Dick Durbin portrays terrorists as victims of Nazi oppression

Once again we see the insane transposition of good and evil.

NOW Attacks Bush on the strict Abortion front

Bush has liberated millions of Women from ritual beatings, stoning, female infanticide, female genital mutilation and general treatment not suitable for animals, in countries like Afghanistan and Iraq. He has given them the freedom to vote in Afghanistan, Kuwait and Iraq. N.O.W. still feels it is a top priority to warn us all, that they might lose their precious right to terminate infants at will. They sure look like victims of impending oppression to me.

Synopsis of NOW's position:

No criticism is to be levied at Bill Clinton for demeaning women with sexual harrasment, on the job.

No credit is to be afforded to Bush for what he has done for Women's rights.

However, zealous criticism must be heaped on Bush for something he hasn't actually done to women's rights.

It goes on and on and on...

Primary Contraindications

Never issue a public apology to a purveyor of PVS. They are schooled in the James Carville war room mentality. They will never accept apology at its face value. If it is given, it will be used as a signed confession, in public discourse or in the courtroom. These people and organizations are an opportunistic enemy, not a victim of your insensitivity.

Never pay hush tribute to a purveyor of PVS. Payments are considered an admission of guilt. The first payment becomes the first installment in a blackmail campaign.

PVS is not a disease requiring sympathy. It is a crime requiring punishment and public excoriation.

Remember those responsible for hate crimes legislation. Remember the thought police responsible for hate speech legislation. Pay careful attention to how these laws are being misused and abused.

Michael Yon's Dramatic Gates of Fire post

Go check it out here at his 'Gates of Fire' post. Thanks to PebblePie for providing the information here at her 'Michael in Combat' post.

Here's a really disturbing part of the piece.

... The terrorist turned out to be one Khalid Jasim Nohe, who had first been captured by US forces (2-8 FA) on 21 December, the same day a large bomb exploded in the dining facility on this base and killed 22 people...

That was in December.

...About two weeks ago, word came that Nohe's case had been dismissed by a judge on 7 August. The Coalition was livid. According to American officers, solid cases are continually dismissed without apparent cause. Whatever the reason, the result was that less than two weeks after his release from Abu Ghraib, Nohe was back in Mosul shooting at American soldiers.

It looks like Iraq is suffering the same PC garbage we see in our courts. Maybe democracy has arrived!

Remember all of those articles from the 1990's, regarding the Clinton administration transferring US computer technology to China? Articles like 'Webb Hubbell and the NSA'.

Remember this letter to Bill Clinton by US Defense CEOs? Article at NewsMax.

May 3, 1996 letter signed by the CEOs of Hughes, Lockheed and Loral, the three executives expressed their thanks directly to Bill Clinton.

"In October of last year we wrote to you asking you to complete the transfer of responsibility for commercial satellite export licensing to the Department of Commerce. Your administration recently announced its intention to do just that."

"We greatly appreciate this action which demonstrates again your strong commitment to reforming the U.S. export control system," states a letter signed by Hughes CEO Armstrong, Lockheed CEO Norman Augustine and Loral CEO Bernard Schwartz.

It gets worse...

In the end Hughes was charged with 123 counts of violating national security. All of the violations took place during Armstrong's term as head of Hughes. Hughes pleaded no contest to the 123 charges filed by the U.S. State Department and has since paid a record fine.

Fast Forward to Today...

When I see articles like Hackers Attack Via Chinese Web Sites, which outlines the overwhelming efforts of Chinese hackers to burrow into our defenses, I am so glad we are actively engaged in all that wonderful business over there.

Junkyard Smog

I am usually leary about NYT articles, but this one seemed somewhat benign in the left wing spin factor.

A scientist who has long disagreed with the dominant view that global warming stems mainly from human activity has resigned from a panel that is completing a report for the Bush administration on temperature trends in the atmosphere.
The scientist, Roger A. Pielke Sr., a climatologist at Colorado State University, said most of the other scientists working on the report were too deeply wedded to particular views and were discounting minority opinions on the quality of climate records and possible causes of warming.

Wedded to particular views is a fancy phrase for groupthink. I guess Roger A. Pielke is someone interested in real science, which means objective critical thinking, not desperation to fit a round peg into a square hypothesis.

"When you appoint people to a committee who are experts in an area but evaluating their own work," he said in an interview, "it's very difficult for them to think outside the box of their research."

Science is replete with examples of doom sayers, nay sayers and kill joys who love building careers out of criticizing people who don't think in the mainstream. Most of these people are a roadblock to innovation, not a source. The problem is, you can get quite a bit of useful data from these people, along with sloppy analysis and conclusions. Accept the former. Discard the latter.

Administration officials said the resignation would not affect the quality or credibility of the report, a draft of which is being finished in the next few weeks.

The report, the first product of President Bush's 10-year climate change research program, is likely to be closely scrutinized by climate scientists and environmental and industry groups for any sign of bias or distortion.

Oh God. This is beginning to reek of another Bush rollover. All the suspicious tags are in place. You have benign treatment by the Times, Strong dissent on one side of the issue and hand wringing over how the report will look. Recent environmental visits by Senators. Go out and buy that Glade plug-in today.

Dr. Pielke contends that changes in landscapes like the spread of agriculture and cities could explain many of the surface climate trends, while most climate experts now see a clear link to accumulating emissions of heat-trapping gases like carbon dioxide.

Over the last 130 thousand years the climate went from warm, to ice all over everything, back to warm again. We didn't melt those glaciers with our SUV emissions. The trends these guys are talking about look like noise on the geological charts.

James R. Mahoney, an assistant secretary of commerce and the director of the federal climate research program, said the scientists involved in generating the report were "representative of the broad views" on the questions.

This is another bad sign. Be prepared to be bent over like Marcellus Wallace in Pulp Fiction. Bring an extra pillow for the saw horse and a good book.

Dr. Pielke said he decided to resign after three papers on the troposphere trends were published online on Aug. 11 by the journal Science. The papers said errors in satellite and balloon studies in the tropics explained why earlier analyses failed to find warming in the troposphere.

It looks like the data didn't fit their desired conclusions, so they decided to discredit the data.

Several authors of those papers, who are also authors of the coming government report, said at the time that the new findings would be discussed in the report.
Dr. Pielke said those statements were an effort to influence the shape of the final report.
Several authors of those papers denied this, saying the process of creating the reports is intended to be public, while the contents remain confidential for now.

So the guy, who doesn't fall in line with the moonbat theory of global warming, quits over what looks like the looming equivalent of a scientific gay pride parade. We have the report data, being worked over in a massage parlor. We have recent visits by McCain, Hillary and company, fawning over grave conditions in Alaska. Put it all together.

John R. Christy, another author of the coming report who like Dr. Pielke doubts that human-caused warming poses a serious threat, said that while disagreements were normal, the effort to generate the report was improving understanding.

We will see. I'm expecting an effort to garner public hysteria.

"This process is the worst way to generate scientific information," said Dr. Christy, who teaches at the University of Alabama, Huntsville. "Except for all the others."

Saddam Demands Meeting With Dan Rather

This is a totally ficticious, fabricated insolublog dialogue. See if you can guess who's quotes were the source for the Saddam character and the Baghdad Bob character. It might be tough, at first.

Even though Saddam had met with Dan Rather once before, he has told his US captors that he would throw a temper tantrum, then urinate and defecate all over his cell, if he didn't get another interview. Dan Rather, being a completely unbiased, open and amiable fellow, came out of retirement to serve the interests of Saddam and the world community.

If you could Saddam, please give us a brief idea of what brought you here in the first place.




When I was growing up, it was Communists'. Now it's Terrorists'. So you always have to have somebody to fight and be afraid of, so I built a big war machine with bombs, guns, and bullets and everything.



Weren't you worried that America would react to your aggressive weapons build-up?



America has been killing people on this continent since it was started. I would urge Americans that their country is not worth dying for.



Do you feel that your sons Uday and Qusay had any chance at all, against the evil American occupiers?




Am I stupid? No, I know full-well that my sons, my family, this nation, and this world were attacked by a George Bush who was influenced by the neo-con PNAC agenda after 9/11.



President Bush says the the Iraqi people will now be free to govern themselves. If he were here, what would you say to President Bush?





First I'm gonna say, "And you tell me, what the noble cause is that my people died for." And if he even starts to say freedom and democracy' I'm gonna say, bullsh*t. You tell me the truth. You tell me that my people died for oil. You tell me that my people died to make your friends rich. You tell me my people died to spread the cancer of Pax Americana, imperialism in the Middle East. You tell me that, you don't tell me my people died for freedom and democracy.'"


Some of the former government officials have agreed with the American actions against the insurgents and have joined the new Iraqi government in condemning your regime. They intend to give testimony at your trial. What do you say to that?



...my ex-generals sent out a press statement disagreeing with me in strong terms; which is totally okay with me, because they barely knew me. We have always been on separate sides of the fence politically and I have not spoken to them since the election, when they supported the puppets installed by the man who is responsible for Uday and Qusay's death. When I return to power. I will have them all killed like the traiterous dogs they are.


Do you have any last words on President Bushs' assertion that Iraq is one of many theaters in the global war on terror?




Bush is not waging a war on terror. He's waging a war of terror.
THE BIGGEST TERRORIST IN THE WORLD IS GEORGE W. BUSH!




Prison visiting hours ended, before we could interview Saddam any further. However, outside the prison, we found one dynamic individual, willing to give Saddam the praise he deserves. Sir, what do you think of the interview with Saddam?



We should call him "Father Saddam". We should never call him Saddam; I don't know him. "Father Saddam" is his title, and expresses his ceremonial status as a bereaved father, calling forth over the dead bodies of his sons. He is not a person now, he is a father, which is not an expression of his individuality, but rather the expression of his eternal character: the father, the bringer of life who has been wronged by state power. ...We should not use the name of his sons. His sons are a symbol of all sons who have been sacrificed for this useless and criminal war.

The Tyranny of the Attorney

I am firmly convinced that lawyers, of the John Edward style aggressive parasite type, are feverishly working, with unrestrained glee, at deconstructing our national security, freedom, economy and standard of living. They do this with the pure intent to make money and garner power.

The Landscape

Lawyers exploit the laws. Lawyers run for office, to make the laws. Lawyers appoint their own kind to the judiciary, so they can interpret the laws.

What is wrong with this picture?

There are no checks and balances. The only thing protecting us, is our precious Constitution. That document is currently under attack, as is evidenced by so many recent SCOTUS decisions.

The Jury

Lawyers largely pick the idiots on juries that issue ridiculous awards. These people have no clue that these punitive damages are paid by their own insurance, high prescription prices, and investors who need to be wooed with ever increasing and insane promises for profit, based on the increased risk of investing.

The lion's share of most proceeds do not go to the victim; they go to the lawyers.

The Judges

What can I say. You have more lawyers here. There are so many stories these days about the liberal judiciary and its propensity to judging our culture and economy in a destructive way.

The Federal ninth circuit is overturned at an embarrassing rate.

Judges are the number one reason referendum votes by the American people are overturned. In this way, the judiciary short circuits and destroys the will of the people.

The liberal five SCOTUS justices decided our right to property is really not protected from government seizure, under the Constitution. They are wrong, but they don't care.

The Bleeding Heart

The main argument made by the lawyers, lawgivers and the judiciary, is they are there to protect the victimized.

We can all agree the intent of law is to protect us as citizens. We therefore, must assume, that the healthy application of the law should actually protect us. We should be able to see this process working.

So, why isn't the law working, by reducing the abuse with the punitive measures?

Answer: The system is not really the problem. The damages are really legal windfalls.

If outrageous punitive damages were really there to provide punishment, then why do we see a system under constant punishment, with ever increasing jury awards?

Let's follow the money.

The biggest paying customer in our medical system is the government and insurance.

So many people look at outrageous bills and discard them with a shrug. If the government is footing the bill, then so be it. The lawyers have turned this open loop system into an open expense account. They have driven malpractice insurance, hospital insurance, insurance on medical equipment and drug manufacturers through the roof.

They have attached themselves like thirsty slugs, to the taxpayer driven soaker hose. The ooze these slugs leave in their wake manifests itself as process choking paperwork, choking legal processes, and higher risk for weary investors. All of this drives up cost. So much money is taken away from the care of patients and put in the hands of the slugs. Who is there to turn up the pressure on the soaker hose, increasing the money flow? More lawyers of course! All sitting in congressional seats.

Lawyers in the insurance companies advise them to settle, in order to reduce cost of litigation. This actually increases the cost to society for litigation, by encouraging more law suits and higher insurance rates.

Companies, which have provided crucial services have been so harassed by high insurance, lawsuits, and government regulation, do business elsewhere. The shortage of flu vaccine last year is a perfect example. They could barely make a modest profit, till the government put a cap on the amount spent on vaccine. The number of companies went from over twenty to just a few, operating outside the US. They just had it.

Medical research will never be perfect. It will never have zero risk. If we don't realize this fact of science, we soon will have no medical research. This highly profitable technology, one of the few left in America these days, will be pushed into China or India. We will then have to beg them, with hat in hand, for treatment. We will have to pay their prices. The lawyers could care less.

The Bleeding Border

Criminal aliens are spilling over the borders, effecting a foreign invasion on our soil. Lawyers are suing and seizing the property of American citizens, and giving it to illegal wetbacks. So, the lawyers are ignoring the laws regarding illegal invasion, and upholding the laws punishing a US citizen, for violating the invaders 'rights'.

Lawyers are suing hospitals for not providing care to criminal aliens. So, the lawyers are ignoring the laws regarding illegal invasion, and upholding the laws punishing a US hospital , for violating the invaders 'rights'.

These are clear violations of equal protection. They are clear violations of US sovereignty. There would have been no violation of an illegal wetback's rights, if that person were not there by an act of breaking the law in the first place!

So the lawyers on the ground, the lawyers in Washington, the lawyers in the states and the lawyers sitting on the bench are all engaged in a conspiracy to destroy the rights of the US citizen.

The Politically Correct

We have US servicemen already tried, convicted and imprisoned for abuse of prisoners under the watchful eyeballs of US lawyers.

We have ACLU lawyers swarming all over Gitmo, advising head chopping scum-bags of their precious Miranda rights.

We have ACLU lawyers swarming all over the Boy Scouts, because they are such a threat to our society.

Meanwhile, The biggest butcher of our modern century, Saddam Hussein, has still not met the justice he deserves. But that's Ok. He's got a lawyer, working hard to defend him.

The Process

Why does the US have the largest number of lawyers per capita in the world?

Answer: It's a very profitable business, in a country which has broken the lock on its treasury and allowed the government to throw the money up in an orgasmic cloud of unbridled, destructive greed.

These parasites produce nothing but paper and misery. They set up computer driven shops in states like Texas and Florida, which file injury suits in multiple counties, simultaneously, looking for a good score. It's not hard to find a Judge willing to play the game.

Many of the class action suits wind up sending coupons to the victims, higher rates to the sick, higher prices to the consumers, higher taxes to the taxpayers and millions of dollars to the lawyers.

The only way out

The only way to mitigate this problem is to rotate out the crowd in Washington. The Democrats, the RINOs and all responsible for organizations like the ACLU. Any incumbent pushing for opening the borders must go. Any incumbent standing in the way of tort reform must go. Any incumbent failing their sworn Constitutional duty, including SCOTUS justices, must go.

Bladdery Powered Devices

Visit the MSNBC article Scientists develop pee-powered battery by Bjorn Carey.

Scientists have developed a way to turn pee into electricity. And there's plenty where that came from, they point out.

Do they really need to tell us there is no shortage of pee in this world?

Cheap, disposable, and renewable, urine-powered batteries may be the perfect power source for disposable healthcare test kits called biochips, the researchers say.
"We are striving to develop cheap, disposable credit card-sized biochips for disease detection," said battery developer Ki Bang Lee. "Our battery can be easily integrated into such devices, supplying electricity upon contact with biofluids such as urine.

Please God, don't let them invent urine powered scratch tickets. The parking lot smells bad enough already. However, if they could make electricity from the biofluid that oozes from the corner of Chris Matthew's mouth, while he is having one of his moonbat seizures, I project tremendous energy potential there.

To make the battery, Lee and his team soaked a piece of paper in copper chloride and then sandwiched it between strips of magnesium and copper. Then they laminated the credit card-sized unit between transparent plastic films. When a drop of urine is added to the copper chloride paper, a chemical reaction takes place and produces electricity, which is harnessed by the battery.

Mmmm. Magnesium, copper and urine sandwich. It's the drop of urine that adds just that right touch of spice.

A few drops will generate about 1.5 volts, the same as a AA battery. The battery needs to be developed further to make it commercially viable. "Our urine-activated battery would be integrated into biochip systems for healthcare diagnostic applications," Lee said.

Wow. If they integrated an array of these things in a Bum's pants, they would have an alcohol powered battery.

Lee and his team also found that they could alter the battery's performance, voltage, power, or duration by adjusting the design or materials.

I wonder if Lee needs a special research team to help map out that optimal combination of happy hour consumables vs. Voltage and power?

Lee predicts that one day people will be able to monitor their own health at home using biochips powered by this type of battery. "These fully-integrated biochip systems have a huge market potential," Lee said.

All humor aside, this is an interesting idea. It's not really rocket science, since battery technology is one of the oldest technologies around. They will need some sort of special partitioning scheme to separate the battery contaminated urine, from the sample being tested. I would think adding copper chloride and an electrical current to the sample would make its analysis difficult.

Howard the Coward

"It looks like today, and this could change, as of today it looks like women will be worse off in Iraq than they were when Saddam Hussein was president of Iraq."







Did you mean this woman Howard?






Maybe you really meant this woman.


Maybe you meant the mothers of the other hundreds of thousands of tortured and murdered people in mass graves.



Maybe you meant those Kurdish mothers of children killed by nerve gas.







Maybe you meant the young girls raped and butchered by Saddam's devil spawn.

And Mr. Dean, just in case you thought I misunderstood your words; None of these women lost loved ones, while battling for freedom against a tyrant and foreign terrorists. They lost them to oppression and the bloodthirsty pleasure of murder.

So, that is quite the mouth you have there Mr. Chairman. You should consider having it surgically removed.

It may be the right time

... to consider slapping serious oil sanctions on Iran. It seems counter intuitive, given the shaky state of the oil market and the high prices. There are several important reasons for this.

• Iran would not expect it, since they are threatening to limit oil exports if the UN put nuclear sanctions on them. This would further weaken the control of the mullahs.
  
• Sanctions would cut off a large source of income, right when it's producing large returns. They have been using this income to finance the terror and weapons used against our troops.
• Increased output and pricing will increase the rebuilding profits for Iraq, and increase the financial pressure to accelerate the Iraqi oil production efficiency.
