You need Uncle Sam, Iraq told
Instead of moving toward accommodating the demand of Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki for a timetable for United States military withdrawal, the George W Bush administration and the US military leadership are continuing to pressure their erstwhile client regime to bow to the US demand for a long-term military presence in the country.
The emergence of this defiant US posture toward the Iraqi withdrawal demand underlines just how important long-term access to military bases in Iraq has become to the US military and national security bureaucracy in general.

Hehe. Would Bill O’Reilly be that hemorrhoid?
ouch
Best headline in a long time from FoxNews.com:
Florida Woman Attacked by Fox, Then shot by husband.

Is that Mitt Romney on the left?
Ironic story of the week:
McCain was scheduled to hold a press conference off the coast of Louisiana on a oil platform concerning how much safer the oil industry has become and it was canceled due to an oil spill that shut down the Mississippi River for 2 days
—————
First ships crawl down Mississippi after spill
The first of 200 ships idled by a massive oil spill began crawling down the Mississippi River Friday after the Coast Guard reopened the waterway to traffic, but it could be days before all of the ships are cleared.
A 100-mile stretch of the river has been shut down since Wednesday, when a barge split open in a collision with the Liberian-flagged tanker Tintomara. Roughly 419,000 gallons spilled into the fast-flowing waterway to commerce, and crews have sopped up about 11,000 — just a fraction of what the barge was carrying.

My hemorrhoids have never hurt as bad as watching ANY Fox news programs, proving that they are the BEST at being a pain in the ass.
I’m not seeing he whole ad but I’m still laughing.
Why do republicans hate poor people?
Senate Republicans block heating aid bill
WASHINGTON - Republicans on Saturday blocked the Senate from considering a bill next week that would nearly double federal aid to help the poor pay heating and air-conditioning bills.
Although a dozen Senate Republicans support the measure, most voted with GOP leaders who would rather spend the time trumpeting their call to expand offshore oil drilling before Congress takes six weeks off for vacation and the presidential nominating conventions.
JimboSlice @ 4:
OMG. I read that as if Fox attacked this women and then her husband shot her. ROFL!
ldzppln @ 9:
Because they typically do not send them campaign contributions.
…soooooo, they’re news anal cysts then? Targeting their main coprophagous demo more directly these days, evidently, using ‘ass whistle’ codespeak…
I’ll bet the fox was repugnant and has rabies. Anything associated with Fox should be shot.
JimboSlice @ 4:
I’m surprised there was not a (D) behind the word fox in that article.
When the revolution starts, the first thing to check off is storming the gates of Basti…I mean FOX. :)
if bush is batman does that mean jeff gannon is robin?
ldzppln @ 9:
Simple. These self centered sociopaths don’t care for anything that does not personally benefit them. The Retardlicans remind me of the Roman Senate in the movie History of the World jumping up and shouting “F—k the poor!”
hey, if you haven’t seen COLDPLAY in concert yet, GO!!! Saw them in Philly last night. He made fun of the “obama fist jab” hahaha. good stuff.
They’re right:
O’Reily… BIG PAIN IN THE ASS.
Hannity… BIG PAIN IN THE ASS.
Hume… BIG PAIN IN THE ASS.
All recently exposed to be political shills for the Bush Administration (another BIG AMERICAN HEMMORRHOID.)
CowBoy Bob in Austin @ 19:
However, between the 3 they “earn” around $45M per year. What a world.
I didn’t think this was possible. They’re such PERFECT assholes at Faux.
You can’t make this shit up. Too funny.
p.s. Was this the same medical group that botched Glenn Beck’s ass surgery? Just sayin’.
It’s past time to focus on the electronic voting machines. We don’t need anymore assholes (hemorroids) in office.
rupert’s marketing team’s probably telling him he’s long overdue for a major “rebranding” effort.
he needs some new snake oil flavors.
so don’t be surprised when he shows his softer, gentler side to obama, zrbezinski & hagel, et al.
leave no stone unturned, folks.
don’t let these bastards off the hook like they did aftewr nixon, otherwise you’re dooming your kids to crap far worse than 89/11…

McCain’s Gaffe, on California’s Ban on Trans Fats
When does McInsane NOT gaffe?
He doesn’t remember events. He doesn’t know what countries border the countries we’re at war with. He doesn’t know the difference between Shia and Sunni Muslims. He can’t remember the history of the “surge” he’s so proud about. He has to have other criminals like Joe Liemoreman whispering in his ear constantly. He said twice in three days an incorrect comment about Checkloslavakia. A country that has not existed since 1992!
Let’s face it, McInsane is ready for “The Villages” retirement community, not the White House.
Ron @ 22:
Exactly.
This is interesting….
If this pans out, and the For Profit Media dares take it up, Watch the rats abandon the sinking ship!
harley @ 1:
it all has been about the oil.
The guy who proved Jefferson was the ultimate hypocrite just passed away. McCain is the pot calling the kettle black. Even though we’ll be stuck there indefinitely, the media is spinning the lie that we’re really winning in Iraq.
Orangutan. @ 27:
egg zackly.
ldzppln @ 9:
Because they are Lucifarians who worship Satan and like to practice the “dark arts” which includes ritualistic sacrifices of humans and an obsession with death and dying and killing??? They are followers of Aleister Crowley? They are Neo-Nazi’s? They are Skull & Bones members?
Tequila @ 30:
I remember us winning the war already(2003)
This is an occupation.
They are child molesters whose personalities doesn’t include the traits of compassion or empathy??
yo y’all!
yes…….people the glass is half full regarding this trip to europe…i think the media stepped over the line printing

They aren’t of the same philosophy as others are or who people think they are. For instance they are not Christians, yet they trick people into thinking they are? They are the opposite of what you and I might consider Christians.
Orangutan. @ 34:
they don’t stop at children. they prey on the elderly and any one with a disadvantage of any kind.
has anyone seen the published Obama prayer? Some Israeli student thought it was OK. It was compared to the note Obama wrote at the Holocaust Memorial.
what the fuck is wrong with these people?
All the serial killers in history had one thing in common. Lack of empathy.
Clearly we’ve been sold down a river of fecal matter without a boat, much less paddles (or shovels).
We (the good old USA) have become the neo-Roman empire. And Rome is on fire. Good luck, because we’re all going to need it. Even getting through the next few months will be hard as our currency collapses, and thus our economy, and then we’ll be totally reliant on serial killers for our basic needs.
Feds Seize Two More Banks
will they get part of the $300billion?
poor john mccain, what a pathetic old man. but i have not a shred of sympathy for him, he has done this to himself.
he’s more than earned this humiliation.
Charles @ 40:
All empires produce the men who destroy it from within in their lust for unlimited power. In conquering the world, they include the populations of their own countries. Everyone is an enemy or a potential enemy.
Therefore no empathy, but mostly, they are dissociative and do not connect with others in any real sense, making empathy impossible.
karen marie @ 42:
I don’t have an iota of sympathy for him.
The hemorrhoids at Fox News sure know how to blow a lot of hot air.
Orangutan. @ 32:
and the democrats let them.

CoIntelPro for Pronktastic Victory Over SCLM, DIEBOLD, ESS and SEQUOIA! @ 41:
I think so. I don’t really understand what’s happening here with the government arranged bail out/purchases of these failing banks. Does Mutual of Omaha use their own money to purchase these two banks, or is it this $300 billion fund they are using to buy them? And this is very complex from an accounting aspect. These two banks being purchased have large capital/note assets, but also large amounts of liabilities. What happens to the liabilities such as bad loans debt? Is it erased? Does the FDIC or other federal entities pick up or back the bad loans? And I’m also wondering how they’re going to handle all the actual houses they’ll foreclose on if it’s increasingly difficult to obtain a mortgage? Will they just keep the houses? The whole thing is insane and there is little to no information being dispensed to the public (as usual by the corporate media).
I think we have no idea about the entir
