This past Friday, Dick Cheney said that “Donald Rumsfeld is the best Secretary of Defense we have ever had”. So if he is the “best” then why did Bush fire him? This is a serious question that must be asked. Either Dick Cheney lied to his audience, and the American people, OR George Bush has […]
Remember the Republican controlled Congress spent 1/10th the time investigating Abu Gharib as they did investigating Bill Clinton’s Christmas Card list. Here is why that is such a crime: Outgoing Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld authorized the mistreatment of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, the prison’s former U.S. commander said in an interview on […]
From Time Magazine: Just days after his resignation, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is about to face more repercussions for his involvement in the troubled wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. New legal documents, to be filed next week with Germany’s top prosecutor, will seek a criminal investigation and prosecution of Rumsfeld, along with Attorney General Alberto […]
First we got the Military Times Group, who is responsible for publishing the Army Times and all the other main military magazines, publishing a rare joint editorial on Monday. That editorial is saying “Rumsfeld must go”: “So long as our government requires the backing of an aroused and informed public opinion … it is necessary […]
I find this appalling. Today John Boehner, my congressman, decided to blame the generals on the ground for the failures in Iraq. How dare Mr. Boehner take such a stance against our military. This on the very day he threatened to “beat Mr. Kerry to death” because of Kerry’s comments. Now will the media attempt […]
This shows how bad the Majority Leader is: Rumsfeld’s leadership of the bloody mission in Iraq has become a divisive issue in the Nov. 7 elections. Many Democrats and a few Republicans are calling for his resignation, but President Bush repeatedly has defended him. So did House Majority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, during an appearance […]
No wonder more and more soldiers are getting pissed about Iraq. We now have the very government they defend trying to censure their lives online. This is highly disturbing: We realize that when it comes to freedom of the press, the USA has fallen to Number 53 in the world — tied with our fascist […]
Bush’s administration not only rewrites history, they also try to erase it. Something from 35 years ago would seem like old news, but not today. The following chart was declassified in 1971. It shows the number of U.S. nuclear missiles during the Cold War. 35 years later and the Donald Rumsfeld administration has decided to […]
Five years ago today George Bush announced that Operation Enduring Freedom was underway in Afghanistan. American’s were happy to see justice taking place for the horrible attacks that happened a month before. Five years later, here we are. One of today’s big headlines “Taliban revived in southern Afghanistan“. To the American people, the NATO troops […]
There is no doubt that people are predicting an October Surprise this year. I have heard numerous ideas of what it might be ranging from the capture or killing of Osama to a drastic decrease in gas prices. While the later is seeming to come rather early, we are still left wondering what it could […]
