Call It A Comeback
Drop your comments in the thread–I’ll be introducing my three priorities later in the day. Try not to go overboard on the 6th people. Think about what is advocating for your candidate and what is just annoying.
Singer MORRISSEY was quizzed by the FBI and British intelligence after speaking out against the American and British governments.
The Brit is a famous critic of the US-led war in Iraq and has dubbed President GEORGE W BUSH a “terrorist” – but he was baffled to be hauled in by authorities.
Morrissey explains, “The FBI and the Special Branch have investigated me and I’ve been interviewed and taped and so forth.
“They were trying to determine if I was a threat to the government, and similarly in England. But it didn’t take them very long to realise that I’m not.
“I don’t belong to any political groups, I don’t really say anything unless I’m asked directly and I don’t even demonstrate in public. I always assume that so-called authoritarian figures just assume that pop/rock music is slightly insane and an untouchable platform for the working classes to stand up and say something noticeable.
“My view is that neither England or America are democratic societies. You can’t really speak your mind and if you do you’re investigated.”
I hear he made threatening statements about his girlfriend in a coma too–get Bill Frist a videotape.
Bush at cabinet meeting: “And so people don’t need to worry about security. This deal wouldn’t go forward if we were concerned about the security for the United States of America.”
Let’s See
Incompetence—Didn’t know about it until the press ran with it
Check
Cronyism—new head of Maritime Administration is from DP and is part of the revolving door in this administration
Check
Bumbling Misstatements–see above
Check
Swaggering self-righteousness–dares Congress to pass legislation that he says he’ll veto
Check
Cozying up to repressive Middle Eastern Regimes—UAE is a 6 out of 7 on repression according to Freedom House
Check
Hypocrisy—going out of his way to provide strong support to a repressive regime while utilizing hollow rhetoric about Freedom
Check
The Bait and Switch–claiming it is the administration’s idea to scuttle the deal after figuring out he doesn’t have the votes
Coming Soon.

I’d find it a badge of honor to be added to your race traitor page. If you need to know my credentials, one of your fellow knuckle draggers wrote this to me a few years ago:

Which resulted in this article:

I also write for a gay and lesbian weekly and have written on white supremacist Frank Weltner and his backing of a local candidate here:

And if that isn’t enough I do share the last name of one of the most prominent Jewish historians, Oscar Handlin. I’m a Straight WASP, however, so I do qualify as a full on race traitor.
If need be,

Dave Niewert has been named a race traitor by the National Socialist Movement Northwest.
He’s started a fund to fight the knuckle draggers here, help him out if you can.
I’ve also asked to be added to the page, if other bloggers or readers would care to make the same request, you can e-mail them here:
While it might seem pointless, I have a theory that the more people who heckle them, the anger gets spread out amongst many of us instead of the few there in Washington. So drop them a note.

Hilarious. Are Rahm and Schumer writing these storylines?
WASHINGTON – The Dubai firm that won Bush administration backing to run six U.S. ports has at least two ties to the White House.
One is Treasury Secretary John Snow, whose agency heads the federal panel that signed off on the $6.8 billion sale of an English company to government-owned Dubai Ports World – giving it control of Manhattan’s cruise ship terminal and Newark’s container port.
Snow was chairman of the CSX rail firm that sold its own international port operations to DP World for $1.15 billion in 2004, the year after Snow left for President Bush’s cabinet.
The other connection is David Sanborn, who runs DP World’s European and Latin American operations and was tapped by Bush last month to head the U.S. Maritime Administration.
The ties raised more concerns about the decision to give port control to a company owned by a nation linked to the 9/11 hijackers.
It’s only a matter of time until the administration backs down over this deal. If Bush wasn’t going to back down, we’d be seeing a veto override.
I find Muslim and Arab bashing offensive on many levels. Primarily it seems to give some folks who are upset at their own lives something to point to and blame their problems.
However, I do think most of us can objectively understand there is a difference between a British Company and the UAE government running six major US ports.
“After careful review by our government, I believe the transaction ought to go forward,” Bush told reporters who had traveled with him on Air Force One to Washington. “I want those who are questioning it to step up and explain why all of a sudden a Middle Eastern company is held to a different standard than a Great British company. I am trying to conduct foreign policy now by saying to the people of the world, `We’ll treat you fairly.'”
No one in their right mind would hold them to the same standard. Perhaps I can be convinced this isn’t a horrible idea (a rather high bar exists to do that), but claiming the same concerns exist in both places is absurd.
