The Ostroy Report: Bush Angry With Iraqis for Not Sharing His Excitement Over the Colossal Mess He's Created There:
From Dizzy Daze Blog
"One anonymous person in attendance, according to the NY Times, said Bush appeared frustrated that Iraqis showed little appreciation over the sacrifices the United States had made in Iraq, and was surprised that a recent anti-America demonstration in Baghdad in support of Hezbollah drew such a large crowd. 'I do think he was frustrated about why 10,000 Shiites would go into the streets and demonstrate against the United States.' "

Power for the President!

The head of Homeland Security is pushing for more surveillance and the imprisonment of more innocent people in the USA - citing the 'liquid bombers' that were caught in the UK this past week. Scary stuff. He cites the fact that the British authorities were 'nimble' in their catching liquid bombers...Completely missing the fact that a neighbor was the one who betrayed them to the authorities, and that they were aware of the cell for months.
As we have seen from all the evidence, there is no decrease in this activity when we keep taking people's rights away. In fact, the terrorist activity keeps rising no matter how much they tap our phones, or check our bank account statements.
This is especially ridiculous seeing as how the 'liquid bombers' weren't even caught here in the US. So electronic surveillance and more imprisonment of innocent people here in the US isn't going to change anything.

Rove has polished the tactic of Marxist tyrants just enough that gullible Americans won't recognize the genesis of shameful demagoguery.
The early example was then-White House press secretary Ari Fleischer's warning to reporters to "watch" what they write, lest U.S. media help terrorists.
Then, John Ashcroft, attorney general at the time, compared criticism of President Bush's policies as aiding enemies of the United States.
Now Vice President Cheney, the five-time draft evader who champions sending other families' sons and daughters to war, condemns the primary election defeat of Connecticut's Democratic U.S. Sen. Joe Lieberman by anti-war candidate Ned Lamont as encouraging "al-Qaeda types."
