You might want to mention a few of these ideas at dinner tomorrow right after your asshole Uncle Bob condescendingly dismisses us as a bunch of dirty clueless hippies again.

The sites, collectively known as the Trans Regional Web Initiative (TRWI) and operated by General Dynamics Information Technology, focus on geographic areas under the purview of various U.S. combatant commands, including U.S. Central Command. In its coverage of Uzbekistan, a repressive dictatorship increasingly important to U.S. military goals in Afghanistan, a TRWI website called Central Asia Online has shown a disturbing tendency to downplay the autocracy's rights abuses and uncritically promote its claims of terrorist threats.”<br /><br />Russian Proverb - “Hypocrites kick with their hind feet while licking with their tongues.”Denis Nevillenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-76813005751284639642011-11-22T19:15:49.269-05:002011-11-22T19:15:49.269-05:00Here's part of the infuriating clip:

(Guess creative staff writers who would feed him better sound bite lies are too expensive....)<br /><br />No, from New York to Washington, the chants I chanted and heard resounding loudly down the canyons of the streets were: <br /><br />"You say, Cut Back, WE SAY FIGHT BACK"<br /><br />"We ARE the 99 percent--and so are you!" <br /><br />"What do we want?<br />To tax the rich!<br />When do we want it?<br />NOW!"<br /><br />"What do we want?<br />Wall st. trading tax!<br />When do we want it?<br />Now!"DreamsAmelianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-71589867611417069262011-11-22T19:01:02.072-05:002011-11-22T19:01:02.072-05:00You are really on a roll! ...at least providing la...You are really on a roll! ...at least providing laughs in the endless tragi-comedy of the politics train--<br />"The corporate media are in awe of the Audacity of Oligarchy."<br />Maybe, too, he chose the orange sweater as part of the color code terrorist alert system (orange=really bad boogey men out there, maybe even next to you on the subway!)--and also to make sure no one would confuse him as having any closet sympathies with the Code Pink group, being such a champion of the First Amendment as he is (when the Times unironically printed that allegation, a pity they failed to provide any evidence as he was evicting protesters)<br /><br /> Krugman said it best on Sunday, "only fools and clowns" can believe in Republican ideology. Bloomie would make a perfectly foolish enough clown to be Court-Jester-in-Chief, should he ever choose to buy himself into a Presidential seat.DreamsAmelianoreply@blogger.com
