I’m sorry, but I’ve lost track of why we’re continuing to commit mass murder in Iraq. I think this week it has to do with Bush being Osama’s stooge once again? The cover story keeps changing on a weekly basis. It’s gone from non-existent WMD’s to creating democracy to Osama wants us to but it always comes down to the real reason we’re there, i.e., to steal all that lovely oil and have permanent bases in Iraq so as to control all of the middle-east’s oil.As the Fuhrer said of Iraq to reporters at Sydney airport, “We’re Kicking Ass.” Makes you proud to be an American, doesn’t it? You can tell that our west Taxus prairie monkey is Yale and Harvard educated, can’t you? Just goes to show what degrees from Yale and Harvard are really worth!
security. Yes, of course, it was the Australians who provided the security in Australia not the Austrians. He got lost on stage and couldn’t find his way off and couldn’t pronounce the name of Myanmar’s democratic opposition leader; all grade A Bush material for late night comics everywhere.I think my favorite quote from the APEC summit was this one. Please don’t choke to death when you hear it…
“If you truly care about greenhouse gases, then you’ll support nuclear power. If you believe that greenhouse gases are a priority, like a lot of us, if you take the
issue seriously, like I do and John (Howard) does, then you’ll be supportive of nuclear power.” “if you take the issue seriously, like I do and John (Howard) does.”If that didn’t make you beat your head against a wall how about this quote?“We’ll continue to work with nations like Russia to advance our shared interests while encouraging Russia’s leaders to respect the checks and balances that are
essential to democracy.”The checks and balances? Where to begin about that last statement? Love him, or hate him, you’ve got to admit W’s got balls, not a brain in his head but balls!Then after Osama’s new video surfaced, just in time for “Surge week” in Congress, Smirky said…
“If al-Qaeda bothers to mention Iraq it’s because they want to achieve their objectives in Iraq, which is to drive us out and to develop a safe haven,” he said.
“And the reason they want a safe haven is to launch attacks against America or any other ally.”
The real reason is, of course, that Osama (see also the CIA) wants us there is to destroy our army, our equipment, not to mention our treasury! Meanwhile, Osama uses us, the Great Satan, and our war crimes against the Afghanis and Iraqis as a way to recruit new members and cash. You now, just like he did just before the 2004 selection to help keep Bush in power so the cycles could continue and continue they have!
So the Bush/bin Laden circus rolls on and on leaving mass destruction, millions of dead and wounded in its wake.
So whom would the gods destroy? Go and look into the mirror, America!
In Other NewsPeople often ask me if it’s hard coming up with a new “winner” for the Vidkun Quisling Award for treason every week? Actually the trouble comes from choosing between the many outstanding candidates in any given week. This week General Betrayus won, but just barely, over House Armed Services Committee Chairman Ike Skelton, D-Missouri and Rethuglican California Con-gressman Duncan Hunter. There were many more this week but these are ones that stood out of the pack!Ike, you may recall, was the ringmaster of that little act of treason preformed by Betrayus at the bidding of his master, and ours, our beloved emperor Smirkus Maximus
in that little two-ring circus down in “foggy bottom!”
Ike was kept busy by having the police throw out and arrest anyone who dared to question the general including Issues & Alibis contributor Ray McGovern who dared to ask that the general be sworn in under oath which caused the Rethuglican traitors who were hot to protect General Betrayus from any questions concerning who wrote that little piece of treason that the general read to go absolutely berserk. These chicken-hawks were led by the well-known traitor and top Rethuglican, ranking Armed Services Committee member Duncan Hunter.
Then the next day over in the Senate we had old “tail-gunner Joe” Lieberman, I-Israel, asking Betrayus if he were prepared to invade Iran because of some trumped
up charges that Cheney and the boys have made up against Iran. Surprisingly enough, the general declined Joe’s offer and said that we had better keep focused on Iraq.
You can bet that the general isn’t going to keep his four stars, two of which Bush gave him for following ze orders, with talk like that!
To make a long story short, in the end it didn’t matter as the fix was in well before the General and Crocker left Iraq with Bush’s script in hand. As I’ve noted many times before, there is nothing you can do about it, America. In fact, I dare
you to do something about it, America! “Go ahead, make my day!”

And finally, there are warnings in the air; much mischief is afoot that should be noted this week. You are, of course, hip, at least you are if you read my column on a regular basis, that someone has placed a billion dollar bet that the stock markets will crash before September 21st, a bet insiders are calling “Bin Laden Trades.” Smart money doesn’t bet a billion dollars unless they know what’s going
down. If something does happen they stand to make as much as $4 1/2 billion dollars!
A similar but smaller bet, i.e., a put option, was placed on American and United Airlines stock just before the 911 false flag attack occurred and paid off to the tune of $50 million dollars. Whoever had the inside info on the 9-11 bet has never been named; ask yourself why that wasn’t pursued by the 911 committee. These “Bin Laden Trades” would raise suspicion by themselves but now we hear this news from
our air force.
It seems Air Force Command boss Gen. Ronald Keys has ordered a complete stand down for the 14th of September because of the August 30 “nuclear incident” at Minot Air Force Base, N.D., in which six cruise missiles armed with nuclear warheads were loaded onto a B-52H and then flown to Barksdale Air Force Base, La., without anyone on the ground or bomber realizing the nuclear weapons were on the plane. So General Ronnie will ground not only the bomber fleet but the fighter wings that protect America, too. Oh, and just for good measure, he announced these facts to everyone including all of our enemies, both foreign and domestic.
If something were to happen on the 14th what do you suppose those rat bastards in the White House would do?
If you said declare Martial Law you win a cookie. And
since America was been declared a war zone by our beloved Fuhrer they could get away with it. How are you fixed for bottled water, food and ammo America?
Of course the air force stand down could just be a coincidence. Perhaps instead China might decide to sell its dollars and call in our trillion-dollar debt. The effects would be the same on the stock market. In any event, something wicked this way comes, America, so like a Boy Scout, you’d better be prepared!
