Other - Politics & Government - November 2007

Today, on his show “My Word”, John Gibson said:

“I’m the guy who said a long, long time ago that whoever outed Valerie Plame should get a medal…And if it was Karl Rove, I’d pin it on him myself.”

Gibson justified the White House’s outing of Plame because “this was about an anti-Bush cabal at the CIA” that needed to be “rooted out.”

Ignoring the possibility that Gibson simply may be insane;

Shouldn’t FOX at least present some evidence supporting its claim of a CIA “cabal” against the President of the United States? And even if true, what is accomplished by “outing” its covert agents?

Do you vote conservative thinking that = prosperity?

Well it does but not necesarily for you the working class

Corperations do not now nor have they ever represented anyone but themselves They are well known law breakers hiding behind over priced lawyers who never show remorse for wrongs commited

They always pay the lowest wages they can get away with - Even if that means screwing their own nation by hireing imigrants or just moving somewhere else -

--------------------

Why would you vote for their political arm ? Why would you support the very place that fires people a day before retirement or hires a lawyer to get rid of the woman who just got pregnant ? Or or or or

Incredibly, the wealthiest 1% of U.S. households owned 38.1% of total marketable wealth in 1998--as much wealth as that owned by the bottom 94% of U.S. households combined. The most recent peak of 38.5% was reached in 1995. That level had been unmatched in the United States since 1929, just before the Great Depression (44.2%).

Since 2000, according to published reports, the former veep has transformed himself from a public servant with around $1 million in the bank to a sparkling private consultant with a net worth estimated to be north of $100 million. He's a senior adviser to Google, a board member at Apple and now a newly minted general partner at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, the Silicon Valley venture-capital firm that made billions investing early in Netscape, Amazon and Google.

Gore has pledged to hand over his KP "salary" to Alliance for Climate Protection, a nonprofit he chairs. But the gift is more symbolic than material. Gore's salary-his cut of the 2 percent "management fee" that KP partners get on all investments-is typically a sliver of the total compensation that VCs receive. If Gore's profit-sharing deal is anything like the firm's other 23 partners, he's also in line to collect tens of millions of dollars a year. That's because partners carve up 30 percent of the profits if and when the alternative-energy start-ups that KP supports go public or are sold. (Kleiner Perkins declined to comment on Gore's compensation, but his communications director, Kalee Kreider, confirmed that he plans to donate only his "guaranteed income" to charity.) Should Gore's prospecting unearth a clean-energy gold mine the size of Google-which earned billions for KP partners-his share of the loot could make him U.S. history's richest ex-veep.

They have stolen the land of the Palestinians, Driven them into Concentration camps, Shoot on site 100's of their children, built a wall to separate them from their humble farms and olive groves, schools and Hospitals.

Bulldozed their homes and built Jewish Settlements in their place.....Or just destroyed them while they are inhabited..murdering many.

Illegally occupied their land and property, destroyed, pissed and excreted ( literally ) on their historical and social records...

Set up checkpoints ( which I have seen ) where dozens of Palestinian women die, miscarry or give birth as they are refused to attend hospitals.

Humiliate Palestinians in their own land. As the Nazis did to them....Imprint numbers on their arms....

Carry out a systemic policy of GENOCIDE.

Refuse access to 1000's more Palestinians in need of Medical Treatment Cut of supplies of medicines, food and equipment to Gaza...To where they have been driven into Squalor, abject Poverty and constant Fear and Terror from Israel.

Destroyed their economy and made them slaves of Israel without the rights of an Israeli Jew or even a dog.

Continuously use Snipers, Tanks, Helicopter Gunships, F-16s and heavy artillery against impoverished people ( thanks to Israel ) Target women and Children with sniper power, shot down Palestinian protesters who are armed with stones who are only asking for 22% of their land back.....and who have offered that the Jews can keep 78% of what they have stolen.

But sadly the Israelis want it ALL because YHWE promised it to them.

There are too many unspeakable atrocities that the Israelis commit daily. If Americans really new what is going on they would want to Invade Israel to save the Palestinians who are the rightful owners of Israel. ( Palestine ).

Half my family is Jewish..BTW....I'm ashamed to say...Yes they suffered in the Holocaust but did that need to make them become the Nazis of the Middle East.

When we listen from Libturd to neo con noise? Do you understand, really? Of which you speak? Or is this an alternative to a healthy exchange of ideas? Perhaps a DEbate?

It's a Holiday weekend. If the Indians and Pilgrims could break bread why can we not be civil?

Just curious. Open forum. No bashing, take two and sail away. Ideas? Politics.... maybe a peace treaty you researched and feel you can share. Seems we need some PEACE here. While we can only watch and report the news, we certainly do not need to add to the unrest. Aloha.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING ONE AND ALL!

First of all, I know that there are Christian Democrats, and Republican Atheists/Jewish/Muslim/whatever. But, you guys know what I'm talking about. Why, for instance, does Pat Robertson support Guiliani over, say, John Edwards or Bill Richardson?
