The Oborg are heavily influenced by the TheoCons. Yes, they're not the kind of cross-burning TheoCons that like Paul or Huckabee or Romney. But think more of the religious values of Clarence Thomas. Or Condaleeza Rice.

Black doesn't mean progressive. Vastleft and Lambert and everyone else in the Clinton camp, you're correct. On that point.

It's all we have to go on, but there are at least a couple of more kinks in the story, reported by no less than The New York Times and FOX itself in 2002.

WASHINGTON--The US detention facility at Guantanamo Bay has been caught conducting covert propaganda attacks on the internet. The attacks, exposed this week in a report by the government transparency group Wikileaks, include deleting detainee ID numbers from Wikipedia last month, the systematic posting of unattributed "self praise" comments on news organization web sites in response to negative press, boosting pro-Guantanamo stories on the internet news site Digg and even modifying Fidel Castro's encyclopedia article to describe the Cuban president as "an admitted transexual"...

We are told that the CIA tapes were destroyed in 2005. Now, what tapes are these DOJ lawyers examining in September and October of 2007? Please take a look at this memo, HERE, do you see anything that says that the tapes were a). destroyed and b). in 2005?

I am sure someone has a logical answer to this. I am, unfortunately, not that person. Anyone?

Simple. The tapes were destroyed, but not before Li'l Boots had 'em made into a DVD for Uncle Dick's Xmas present.

And no, I do NOT have the primary reference for that assertion.

Apparently the record of the meeting was scrubbed soon after it was posted.

Although Blackwater has the itchiest trigger fingers in Iraq, it's important to remember the number of mercenaries in Iraq outnumbers the American troops. Nor can it be considered the top billing contractor in Iraq.

Well, it's happening again.

It is not a horror flick at all.

So much for any plans to Save the Earth that didn't save Poppy's bank accounts first.

Renewable resources, baby.
