Insurgents Fighting Al Qaeda

Misc

That is something the wingnuts have been bolstering lately; “the insurgency is standing up to al Qaeda”. While it is true, they fail to mention the other part of that equation. The Guardian has published an article explaining this (and repeating what the left has been saying): Seven of the most important Sunni-led insurgent organisations […]

Stories like this are becoming all too common: Two U.S. soldiers have been charged with premeditated murder in the death of an Iraqi near the northern city of Kirkuk last month, the U.S. military said Thursday. The charges were brought against Sgt. Trey A. Corrales of Texas and Spc. Christopher P. Shore of Georgia, following […]

Oh That Republican Spin

Misc

I read the first paragraph of this AP article and my head started spinning: Republicans dismissed as political theater a Democratic plan for an all-night session of the Senate to debate President Bush’s military strategy in Iraq amid bipartisan proposals to redeploy U.S. troops. So actually having a debateĀ  on how to end a war […]

Which Republican Presidential Hopeful Does The Military Like?

Misc

If you answered Ron Paul then you are correct! Congressman Ron Paul has defined his Republican presidential candidacy with a staunchly critical stance on the Iraq war, saying during the June 5 debate in New Hampshire, for example, that it was a “mistake to go and a mistake to stay.” Paul has often reiterated his […]

If It Walks Like Bush And Talks Like Bush

Misc

Then America don’t want it! In a widely expected move, Sen. John McCain‘s (R-Ariz.) press department resigned en masse today. Communications director Brian Jones stepped down, along with deputies Matt David and Danny Diaz. Research director Brian Rogers and South Carolina McCain spokesman Adam Temple are also leaving the campaign. None of the depatures is […]

We Are An Occupier

Misc

Lindsey Graham told Tim Russert this morning that we will leave Iraq when OUR generals say so, even though al-Maliki has said we could leave. In other words, we will not recognize the sovereignty of the Iraqi government. I don’t remember anything in the war authorization saying we would be an occupying force. Sounds like […]

Misc

Petraeus’ report is on September 15. We got the interim report this week stating that they are only “satisfactorily” on track to meet 8 of 18 benchmarks. Now check out this news: The White House said Friday that Iraq’s parliament may take the month of August off but downplayed the impact on political reconciliation efforts […]

This White House isn’t even human: Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA) revealed on Friday afternoon that the White House and Pentagon were holding up a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee investigation into the friendly fire death of former professional football player and Army Corporal Patrick Tillman. “[T]he Committee wrote to White House Counsel Fred Fielding […]

Contempt!

Misc

The one time pick of George Bush to be one of the top judiciaries in the nation did not show up for her subpoena today, paving the way for contempt charges. Let’s not forget George Bush in those charges either, who ordered Miers not to show up. As Josh posted yesterday: 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1505 […]

Tucker Get A Smack Down

Misc

This was classic. Scarborough thinks that Tucker got the best in this argument. Check it out and see what you think. I believe Scarborough is flat wrong. It is funny to hear these right wingers get mad when the personal lives of politicians is brought into the public debate. It was just 10 years ago […]
