Geert Wilders to Release Anti-Quran Film 'By March 1'

Dutch politician Geert Wilders says he will release his 15 minute film, which compares the Quran to Mein Kampf, "by March 1."

The Netherleands are all atwitter as the Dutch government tries to get him to reconsider:

Far-right Dutch MP Geert Wilders has said that this week he will finish a film about Islam which has already triggered Muslim outrage.
Mr Wilders said he was determined to release the film despite government warnings that this would damage Dutch political and economic interests.

Militant Muslims are expected to protest the film, which will likely depict them as violent, bloodthirsty savages, by behaving like violent, bloodthirsty savages.

Obama Camp to Canada: Pay Attention to the Man Behind the Curtain

From Canada's CTV:

Within the last month, a top staff member for Obama's campaign telephoned Michael Wilson, Canada's ambassador to the United States, and warned him that Obama would speak out against NAFTA, according to Canadian sources.

The staff member reassured Wilson that the criticisms would only be campaign rhetoric, and should not be taken at face value.

The Obama campaign has called the report, "implausible."

Update: Ben Smith reports that the Canadians deny the CTV story.

Is McCain 'Natural-Born?'

The New York Times is at it again. After getting roundly spanked for the irresponsible and prurient speculation used to spice up their otherwise dull, politically motivated hitpiece on the Republican front-runner, the Gray Lady is taking a different tack. This time they're questioning whether John McCain, born to US citizens in the Panama Canal Zone, is a "natural-born citizen" and thus, Constitutionally eligible to serve as President.

This latest non-issue was already dealt with to everyone's satisfaction, the first time McCain ran in 2000.

This excerpt sounds ominous:

To date, no American to take the presidential oath has had an official birthplace outside the 50 states.

Except, of course, for all the Presidents born on British soil before the Revolution and the Constitution made it American. That would include the "Father of the country," George Washington.

Hollywood's New Treason Chic

Brainless glitterati like Paul Haggis and Julie Christie "heart" terrorists. Why don't you?

From New York Fashion:

Did you notice the orange ribbon pinned to Julie Christie's dress and Paul Haggis's lapel at the Oscars? It was a lovely little accessory to show their support for the closing of the Guantánamo Bay prison because of the U.S. government's controversial interrogation tactics there. The orange represents the jumpsuits worn by the prisoners and is also the color of a rubber bracelet worn by Haggis that reads "torture+silence=complicity" included in the Oscar swag bag. Organizations like the ACLU, which sponsors the Close Guantanamo campaign, ask stars to don these stamps of activism well in advance so that they have enough time to consult with their stylists.

"Included in the Oscar swag bag?" And these idiots wonder why nobody wants to watch their mutual backslapping extravaganza anymore?

Note that "haggis" is the national dish of Scotland. It's a bunch of guts cooked in a sheep's stomach. How appropriate.

The Terminator Cometh

A British professor sounds the warning:

Increasingly autonomous, gun-totting robots developed for warfare could easily fall into the hands of terrorists and may one day unleash a robot arms race, a top expert on artificial intelligence told AFP.
"They pose a threat to humanity," said University of Sheffield professor Noel Sharkey ahead of a keynote address Wednesday before Britain's Royal United Services Institute.

Apparently, with Global Cooling breaking out, the aging hippie class needs a new "scientific" bugaboo.

But what led Dr. Sharkey to become concerned? Perhaps this 2005 interview holds a clue:

It was while reflecting on the effects of an acid trip (he had taken LSD) that he began wondering about the limits of the mind. Since then he has explored the nature of machine intelligence, experimented with robotic evolution and mused on what kind of thinking is beyond computers.

Groovy.

I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords.

What Do You Do During the National Anthem?

I put my hand over my heart as a gesture of respect for the people who created and maintained our legacy.

Barack Obama cups his balls:



Some Obama supporters have been saying that the photo of him with his hands at his groin was just a moment in time, and Barack probably put his hand over his heart soon after. Except he didn't. And btw, whoever sang that hideous rendition of our national anthem should be shot. Immediately.

Oh No! Obama/Clinton Violence Begins

They warned us things like this might happen.

It has begun. From CBS3News in Pennsylvania:

Authorities said brother-in-laws Jose Ortiz and Sean Shurelds were involved in a verbal altercation over Democratic presidential hopefuls Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton when the argument escalated into a stabbing inside their family home on Honey Locust Court in Upper Providence.

Authorities said Ortiz, a registered Republican and Clinton supporter, allegedly stabbed Shurelds, an Obama supporter, in the stomach.

Shurelds was flown to an area hospital and was listed in critical condition.

A "registered Republican and Clinton supporter?" Looks like his lawyer's insanity defense is a slam dunk.

NYT: OMG! Is Barack Safe?

In a thinly veiled effort to drape Obama in the mantle of JFK, RFK, and MLK, New York Times writer Jeff Zeleny, uses a little fearmongering in a "noble" cause, of course:

DALLAS — There is a hushed worry on the minds of many supporters of Senator Barack Obama, echoing in conversations from state to state, rally to rally: Will he be safe?

RFK and MLK are mentioned early, but note the dateline (JFK is invoked later on). What a clever little bit of subliminal propaganda.

Message: "We don't know of any credible threats, but Barack might be targeted because he is John, Robert, and Martin all rolled up into one hopey-changey package and everyone knows that non-progressives are dangerous maniacs who play with guns."

I'm sure the Gray Lady was every bit as concerned for the safety of President Bush when the threats were much more overt. Like, when Craig Killborn, working for David Letterman's Worldwide Pants production company, ran a "Snipers Wanted" crawl over a Bush speech. And didn't some nutjob actually produce a movie depicting the assassination of the President?

McCain to Castro: Die Soon

From Agence France Presse via Breitbart:

Presumptive Republican nominee John McCain Friday said he hoped Fidel Castro's resignation would be followed by his speedy demise, and rapped Democrat Barack Obama for offering talks with Cuba's next leader.

"Fidel Castro announced that he would not remain as president -- whatever that means," McCain said in Indianapolis.

"And I hope that he has the opportunity to meet Karl Marx very soon.

I think McCain was wrong to say this. If anyone deserves a miserable, lingering death, it's a mass murdering tyrant like Fidel.

Blowback

Seattle Post-Intelligencer editor David McCumber on why he chose not to run the NYT's McCain story:

To me, the story had serious flaws. It did not convincingly make the case that McCain either had an affair with a lobbyist, or was improperly influenced by her. It used a raft of unnamed sources to assert that members of McCain's campaign staff -- not this campaign but his campaign eight years ago -- were concerned about the amount of time McCain was spending with the lobbyist, Vicki Iseman. They were worried about the appearance of a close bond between the two of them...

...That's pretty thin beer.

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer is not exactly a conservative publication. And even the reliably leftwing Slate is mocking the story.

Meanwhile, the New York Times is trying to deal with readers questioning their integrity and judgement:

I think we all expected the reaction to be intense. We knew from our experience last year, when word leaked out we were pursuing this story, that Senator McCain's operatives would set out to change the subject by making the story about The New York Times rather than about their candidate. That's a time-honored tactic for dealing with potentially damaging news stories.

I see. So the Gray Lady believes that the best response to being raped is to lay back and enjoy it. God knows that mere mortals have no business questioning the integrity, competence, or motives of the Lords of Perception.

Glass House

New York Times executive editor Bill Keller had an affair with an ex-girlfriend of John Kerry. He divorced his wife, impregnated his lover, and married her - I'm not sure in what order all this occurred. Children were involved.

Keller is the one who made the ultimate decision to run with the barely sourced, innuendo-laden attack story on John McCain.

From New York magazine:

After reading the letter, Keller called Gilbey, a British journalist living in New York, and asked her to coffee at the Times cafeteria. Gilbey, at the time, had a reputation as something of a power-dater; her exes included Senator John Kerry and Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour. An affair ensued, which shocked Keller’s friends. “I felt bad for everyone involved,” says Stephen Engelberg, a former Times reporter. “This was not characteristic behavior at all. I wouldn’t pretend to be Bill’s psychologist, but he didn’t get a red sports car, so …”...

Two years after they met, Gilbey was pregnant, Keller was divorced from Cooper, and he had a new job as managing editor under Joe Lelyveld.

What a hypocritical tool.

I Did That With My Mind

Emotiv Systems is planning to begin selling headsets that will let you control video games with your thoughts. For $299:

The headset will be sold with a game developed by Emotiv, but it can also be made to work with existing PC games, the company said. Users will also be able to access an online portal to play more games, chat or upload their own content such as music or photos.

Emotiv plans to work with IBM Corp. to explore applications beyond video gaming. The "brain computer interface" technology could transform not only gaming, but how humans and computers interact, said Paul Ledak, vice president of IBM's Digital Convergence business.

Think about that phrase, "brain computer interface." Right now the interface is through our fingers, for the most part. What will happen when the computer interacts directly with our brain?

Is This The End...

...for the New York Times?

The newspaper has been hemorrhaging readers and credibility for years. Their hatchet piece on John McCain, a candidate that the NYT endorsed (while sitting on this story) has all the appeal of an aging whore drunkenly shaking her jiggly old moneymaker.

The story's purpose is to use innuendo and anonymous sources to suggest that McCain had an affair with a lobbyist in 1999, then wrote letters for her clients. That's it. The whole story. Both McCain and his alleged paramour deny it.

This means that, by the standards of the "paper of record," Larry Sinclair's account of a coke-fueled sausagefest with Barack Obama in 1999 is at least 50% more credible. Hey, the guy's willing to take a polygraph test, come on.

Danish Cartoonist Homeless Due to Security Threats

73-year-old Kurt Westergaard and his wife are out on the street because of threats made against him by Muslim extremists. Westergaard is the artist who created the iconic image below for the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, which also published "blasphemous" cartoons from 11 other cartoonists, touching off riots across the Muslim world (and spilling into civilized countries with large Muslim populations).

From Der Spiegel:

He was booted from his police-protected hotel room on Feb. 15 for being "too much of a security risk." And now the 73-year-old cartoonist and his wife are without a place to live.

Westergaard was forced to leave his actual residence in November after the Danish security and intelligence agency, PET, informed him of a "concrete" plan to murder him, according to the paper that originally published the cartoons, Jyllands-Posten. Westergaard and his wife have been living under police protection since.

Leftwing Hate Site Uses Incident to Condemn All Vets

Don't you just love it when creatures like this "Cernig" at The Newshoggers pretend to care about veterans as a pretext to paint them as dangerous lunatics?

The Newshoggers is a radical left site set up to peddle the myth that the mainstream media is biased...to the right. That should give you a good indication of just how far up their asses these idiots have forced their heads.

What Did She REALLY Say?

The slam so nice she said it twice.

Well, at least one thing is cleared up now. When the controversy first arose, I read a comment from someone who claimed to have been at Obama's speech. The commenter said he or she didn't hear Michelle say "really," before "proud." That modifier makes a big difference. You can understand how someone might feel restrained pride in America. I mean, that's a lot different than not ever having felt proud at all, right?

Relistening to the Breitbart version, there seems to be a glitch, and, while it appears she intends to say "really," the word doesn't come through. Breitbart posts the dateline for the video as Milwaukee, which is where the commenter claimed to have heard the speech. Problem solved; obviously there was a glitch with the sound system...except that the video caption disagrees with Breitbart's dateline. The video says "Madison," not "Milwaukee."

In fact, Michelle Obama gave the same speech twice in one day. The less damaging Madison version, that includes the word "really," is the one that the mainstream media are running with. And nobody is mentioning that there were two speeches.

Castro Resigns

CNN reports that the ailing dictator and mass murderer has resigned as Cuban president and head of its military:

Fidel Castro announced his resignation as president of Cuba and commander-in-chief of Cuba's military on Tuesday, according to a letter published in the state-run newspaper, Granma.

Castro, 81, temporarily handed power to his younger brother Raul Castro in July 2006 after undergoing intestinal surgery. He hasn't been seen in public since his surgery, but he has appeared in numerous videos and photos in state media.

In December 2007, a Cuban television news anchor read a letter reportedly written by Fidel Castro promising he would not "cling to office" or be an impediment to rising young leaders.

"Impediment" he calls it. Castro rose to overlordship of Cuba largely through imprisoning and murdering any "rising young leaders" who got in his way.

Anyway, this is still a classic:

There is no Justice in this World

It's just come to my attention that Alice Cooper has never been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. But Madonna has. It should be renamed the PopTart Hall of Fame.

More 'Just Words' from the Obama Camp

Michelle Obama speaking in Milwaukee:

"What we have learned over this year is that hope is making a comeback. It is making a comeback and let me tell you something, For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction and just not feeling so alone in my frustration and disappointment. I have seen people who are hungry to be unified around some basic common issues. It has made me proud."

Not only is this an incredibly inept thing for a Presidential candidate's wife to say, it indicates an incredibly shallow, selfish personality.

Unless, of course, Michelle only became an adult in her own mind a couple of months ago.

The Audacity of Plagiarism?*

Did Barack Obama plagiarize a 2006 Deval Patrick speech?

Big Head DC has posted duelling YouTube vids of the Deval speech and a speech Obama gave Saturday that sound eerily alike.

DEVAL: "...just words; 'We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal,' - just words. Just words. 'We have nothing to fear but fear itself,' - just words. 'Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country,' - just words. 'I have a dream,' - just words."

OBAMA: "Don't tell me words don't matter. 'I have a dream,' - just words. 'We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal,' - just words. 'We have nothing to fear but fear itself,' - just words. Just speeches."

Related: Hillary's camp accuses Obama of plagiarizing her economic plan, and then there's this January 5th piece from the Boston Globe, "Obama borrows from Edwards":

American Alienation

Savage and Coulter Vindicated By Noted Shrink

Dr. Lyle Rossiter says that liberals are actually insane:

"Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded," says Dr. Lyle Rossiter, author of the new book, "The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness." "Like spoiled, angry children, they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave."...

"The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness – can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind," he says. "When the modern liberal mind whines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious."

12 Year Old Taliban Child Sawing Off a Living Head

If you have a particularly strong stomach, watch this while you can. Liveleak has pulled the file, but it still plays at The Jawa Report post.

This video, in which a 12 year old slowly saws off the head of a "spy" under the direction of an adult Taliban, should be viewed by every member of Congress, and particularly by every mindless zombie of the shrieking, partisan Left. This is what a REAL enemy looks like, you mincing shitheads. This is not underwear on the head. This is not a chewy halal meal at Gitmo. This is not a paranoid fantasy told by a sock puppeteer.

This is a twelve year old boy slowly sawing off a man's head with a knife.

It's part of a series of videos put out by Islamist terrorists from which the mainstream media has shielded Westerners.

Fighting 'Fearmongering' by Mongering Fear

Noted Salon demagogue and sock puppet Glenn Greenwald celebrates the latest boon handed to international terrorists by the Democrat Congress:

Americans are worried and even angry about many things. Whether Osama bin Laden is throwing a party because AT&T and Verizon might have to defend themselves in court isn't one of them. Outside of National Review, K Street, and the fear-paralyzed imagination of our shrinking faux-warrior class, there is no constituency in America demanding warrantless eavesdropping or amnesty for lawbreaking telecoms.

Brilliant. The well-being of the Constitution of the United States of America depends, not upon physically defending the territory and citizens of the country, but upon preserving the inalienable right of bottom-feeding lawyers to make a quick buck (or billion) by suing companies that cooperated in good faith with government agencies investigating terrorist plots.

In his characteristically turgid, longwinded prose, Greenwald reduces the serious question of combatting potential hookups between foreign and domestic terrorists to a political game. He's only interested in how many points the Democrat team is scoring:

Political parties that are "strong," and which are perceived as strong, are ones that "defy" orders and mount "great challenges" against weak and unpopular Presidents by standing on principle -- not ones that bow and capitulate and surrender and lose. Again, leave aside any hope that Democrats will actually be sufficiently motivated by the crucial constitutional principles at stake here. Just basic political self-interest, and basic human dignity, ought to mean that this singular act of defiance will lead to others.

Greenwald doesn't really care a fig about the Constitution, except for its value as a tool to fearmonger amongst the hysterical BDS class. In fact, Greenwald's entire diatribe concerns the American internal political struggle. In Glenn's world, no towers have ever fallen. The thousands of dead are merely hypothetical. The War on Bush takes precedence over everything else.

Greenwald conveniently ignores the cold fact that spectacular terrorist attacks are not only possible, but have actually taken place, preferring to cite the hypothetical possibility of infringement upon Constitutional rights, though he does not, in fact, cite any example of this. Mainly because there is no Constitutional right to plot terrorist acts against Americans, nor has the Left been able to bring forth anyone who can indisputably be said to have had his or her rights violated.

Greenwald closes his second update to the original post with some lawyerly prevarication:

One other vital point: The claim that telecoms will cease to cooperate without retroactive immunity is deeply dishonest on multiple levels, but the dishonesty is most easily understood when one realizes that, under the law, telecoms are required to cooperate with legal requests from the government. They don't have the option to "refuse." Without amnesty, telecoms will be reluctant in the future to break the law again, which we should want. But there is no risk that they will refuse requests to cooperate with legal surveillance, particularly since they are legally obligated to cooperate in those circumstances. The claim the telcoms will cease to cooperate with surveillance requests is pure fear-mongering, and is purely dishonest.

Notice that for all Greenwald's pretensions to venerate the rule of law he seems ignorant of that pesky "innocent until proven guilty" business. What Greenwald glosses over here, is the fact that terrorist plot investigations are usually time sensitive. That means that once US corporations are given the signal that good faith cooperation with authorities can leave them vulnerable to ambulance chasers, every request for information during an investigation will lead to delays while company lawyers research pertinent case law to determine whether or not the request for information is "legal" enough to satisfy petulant partisan prima donnas who are eager to sell out their own country for thirty pieces of silver or temporary political advantage. People like Glenn Greenwald.

American jihadi terrorist wannabe Samir Khan, who posts anti-American pro-Islamist propaganda from the basement of his parent's house in Charlotte, NC, threatens* Danish cartoonists with the fate of Theo Van Gogh, who was murdered by a Muslim in Amsterdam for making the movie "Submission":

All we can say to the cartoonists is: you fools seem to forget the end of Theo Van Gogh (may Allah’s curse be upon him) and forget to realize that even many of the Danish citizens who are Muslims will not tolerate it because they know the story of Ka’b bin Al-Ashraf and what the Companions of Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alayhi wassallam) did to him and they know that their Religion allows such a thing.

The more these cartoonists act in defiance of Allah and His Messenger, the more they attract a culture of Mujaahideen. Bush didn’t seem to learn from that nor do these low-life cartoonists. So keep showing your chest O Enemies of Allah! You are helping the process of waking up our nation as violent lions who tear apart their enemies with their bare hands.

I mean, I don't have that too often. No, seriously. It's a dramatic event. He speaks about America in a way that has nothing to do with politics. It has to do with the feeling we have about our country. And that is an objective assessment.

Does anyone, anywhere need any more proof that Matthews is an idiot?

Obama Supporters 'Heart' Che Guevara

Okay, the whole "hope" and "change" platitudes deal is stupid, but understandable during an election, especially when a candidate is trying to hoodwink throngs of youthful voters.

Stupid, stupid, stupid. And Obama is stupid for associating himself with such stupid, stupid people.

There were almost 600 fighters in our Sector before the Tribes changed course 360 degrees under the influence of the so-called Islamic Army (Deserter of Jihad) and other known believer groups. Many of our fighters quit and some of them joined the deserters, and later on I will mention the names of Fighters who stood by us (faithful fighters), but things started getting worse ever since, and as a result of that the number of fighters dropped down to 20 or less...

This Would Explain A Lot

From the Timesonline:

A government minister has warned that inbreeding among immigrants is causing a surge in birth defects - comments likely to spark a new row over the place of Muslims in British society.

Phil Woolas, an environment minister, said the culture of arranged marriages between first cousins was the “elephant in the room”. Woolas, a former race relations minister, said: “If you have a child with your cousin the likelihood is there’ll be a genetic problem.”

The minister, whose views were supported by medical experts this weekend, said: “The issue we need to debate is first cousin marriages, whereby a lot of arranged marriages are with first cousins, and that produces lots of genetic problems in terms of disability [in children].”

Mitigating the damage to the Muslim gene pool is the public service being provided by the US in Iraq and Afghanistan, where the military is busily exterminating the stupidest, most gullible members of the Islamic world.

Update: The Muslim Public Affairs Committee reacts to the warning:

The claims infuriated the Muslim Public Affairs Committee (MPAC) which called on the prime minister to "sack him".

MPAC spokesman Asghar Bukhari said Mr Woolas' comments "verged on Islamophobia".

Berkeley Traitors Begin to Drop Trou

From San Francisco's KNTV:

BERKELEY, Calif. -- As six Republican senators devised a plan to yank $2.3 million in federal funding for Berkeley programs, the mayor of the famously liberal city apologized Wednesday for his hard stance against a Marine recruiting center.

Looks like talk isn't always cheap, especially when the talk involves crapping all over your own country and the people who put their lives on the line to protect it. But wait, there's more:

"That letter will probably be pulled back and maybe more moderate language will be put in place which is appropriate I think," said Berkeley mayor Tom Bates.

Well, you could try moderating the language, Master Bates, but the only language real Americans want to read in the letter is your own resignation, swiftly followed by those of each of the stupid jackasses on the city council who voted for your original resolution.

"Subtly stated in the resolution is perhaps an impugning of the soldiers fighting for us in Iraq and other places," Berkeley City Councilman Laurie Capitelli. "And that was never the intention but that really needs to be cleared up. As I walked to my car that night I realized I regretted it and I had made a mistake."

"Subtly stated?" I do not think that word means what you think it means, you whey-faced cow. Yes, you were as "subtle" as 300 pound man celebrating Mardi Gras while wearing a sequined thong and passion pink pasties. Your hatred for America's warriors came through loud and clear.

"There's really no correlation between federal funds for schools, water ferries and police communications systems and the council's actions, for God's sake," said Bates, a retired U.S. Army captain. "We apologize for any offense to any families of anyone who may serve in Iraq. We want them to come home and be safe at home."

I'll believe that this POS served honorably when I see a vetted copy of his DD-214 and not before. And for your information, Tommy boy, it's people just like these Marines that you loathe who ensure that our schools, transportation systems, and local government services can operate in peace. That's your correlation, you whining little nancyboy.

"I was under the impression that we have the right of free speech," said Xanne Joi of Code Pink. "To me, I thought free speech meant you get to say what you want without recrimination."

In other words, Xanne believes that freedom of speech is for her and her friends alone. Doesn't work that way, honey. The Bill of Rights applies to all Americans.

You assmaggots in Berkeley told the Marines that they were "unwelcome and uninvited." You told these heroes who have been protecting the fat, cowardly asses of you and your diseased ilk for the past two centuries to get out of town, and you facilitated their harassment by the traitorous, senile dotards of Code Pink.

Maureen Dowd Forces Times to Disappear Embarrassing Article

Not a retraction or a correction, mind you, but a complete toss down the memory hole.

From the UK's First Post:

Henery, a black American, claimed that Dowd had mistaken her for Barack Obama's wife, Michelle Obama. She says it happened in the press room after last week's Clinton-Obama TV debate in Los Angeles. Told about Henery's article, Dowd was furious - not just because the incident never occurred, she says, but because Henery then mused on the likelihood of white Americans electing a black president if "they" could not tell "us" apart.

It's easy to imagine how humiliating such a report would be to Dowd, with her lefty credentials.

But Froomkin has flown into such a violent little snit that he can't decide whether the belief that waterboarding is "torture" is only "widely held," or if waterboarding is actually, "universally condemned". Details are unimportant to a committed leftist in the throes of Bush Derangement Syndrome.

In fact, Froomkin admits deeper down in his diatribe that the Justice Department has determined the use of waterboarding is legal, thus, by definition, not torture, but he seems to have a basic breakdown in the two or three brain cells he uses to form logical arguments:

Knox writes that Fratto "rejected charges that the tactics the Central Intelligence Agency calls 'enhanced interrogation techniques' amount to torture.

"'Torture is illegal. Every enhanced technique that has been used by the Central Intelligence Agency through this program was brought to the Department of Justice and they made a determination that its use under specific circumstances and with safeguards was lawful,' he said."

And here's the kicker: "Asked whether the White House's reasoning was that torture is illegal, the attorney general has certified that the interrogation practices are legal, therefore those practices are not torture, Fratto replied: 'Sure.'"

It's called a "syllogism," you prissy, yapping lapdog. You should have learned it in junior high.

The only problem here is that waterboarding has only been used on three terrorists. The number should be at least three hundred.

Most Pathetic Al Qaeda Propaganda Yet

Watch the edge of the table rise up when the "light armored vehicle" is attacked.

Waterboarding Disclosure Authorized by President

Waterboarding, the controversial interrogation technique so hideous and maniacal that only specially trained hippies are allowed to undergo it in public, is back in the news:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President George W. Bush authorized the CIA to give its most detailed public account of its use of a widely condemned interrogation technique known as waterboarding, the White House said on Wednesday.

CIA Director Michael Hayden testified before Congress on Tuesday that government interrogators used waterboarding, often described as simulated drowning, on three suspects captured after the September 11 attacks of 2001.

And, of course, America's own Berkeley City Council-style jackass, slanderous assnugget, and terrorist-sympathizer, Dick Durbin is happy to put in his two euros:

Sen. Dick Durbin, an Illinois Democrat and judiciary committee member, demanded that Attorney General Michael Mukasey investigate the CIA waterboarding and vowed to delay the nomination for Mukasey's deputy until the attorney general responds to that and other issues.

Which leads me to repost this transcript of a Durbin style interrogation:

INTERROGATION LOG
DETAINEE 317

17 AUGUST 2008

0930:

The detainee arrives at the interrogation lounge. His sunglasses are removed and he is seated in an overstuffed La-Z-Boy recliner with massage option. SGT A and SGT R are the interrogators. A DoD linguist and MAJ L (BSCT) are present. MS Z (Amnesty International) is present as an observer. MR H (ESQUIRE) is present as detainee counsel.

0935:

Session begins. Detainee is given a mocha latté grandé and offered a selection of croissants and pastries. Detainee sips mocha latté grandé and complains that it is too hot. Detainee spits mouthful (appr. 2 oz.) into SGT R 's face, calls him "infidel goat-lover". MS Z (AI) demands that SGT R check temperature of beverage. SGT R determines that the mocha latté grandé is five (5) degrees fahrenheit above optimum serving temperature and apologizes to detainee. MS Z (AI) states for the record that detainee is being abused according to the Durbin Conventions. MR L (ESQUIRE) states that a complaint of the "Nazi-like" treatment will be filed.

0940:

SGT A tells detainee that information from other sources implicates detainee in plot to detonate nuclear device somewhere in Manhattan, asks detainee for details of plot. Detainee denies involvement, but states that he hopes that the bomb will have enough power to, "...wipe all of the filthy infidel pork-eaters off the face of Allah's Earth." SGT A remonstrates with detainee, stating that "many innocents" will perish in attack and asks for detainee's help in preventing "...this horrible terrorist outrage." Detainee selects a pastry.

0945:

MS Z (AI) and MR L (ESQUIRE) call halt to interrogation. MR L (ESQUIRE) strenuously objects to use of term "terrorist" by SGT A . MS Z (AI) criticizes SGT A for "...applying Western values..." to detainee and notes that potential civilian victims of alleged plot are engaged in work to "...further the schemes of the capitalist warmongers of Western hegemonic imperialism." SGT A apologizes for "thoughtless characterization". MS Z (AI) demands that SGT A direct his apology to detainee. SGT A complies.

0958:

Session ends. Detainee is returned to Guest Suite. Detainee notes that, the previous night, air conditioning in Guest Suite was set at 73 degrees fahrenheit and that Room Service served him filet mignon that was well done when he specifically requested medium rare. MR L (ESQUIRE) states for record that a complaint will be filed and he will "...see that this inhuman gulag is closed down".

Parody (duh).

HIL2008 Lugubriousness Device Test Report

Application: HIL2008 HumanSim Android
Device Code/Common Nomenclature: TD-2008-0097543(X-5)/Hilly Wets Alot
Status: Experimental
Purpose: Simulation of normal human tear duct action will contribute to illusion of normal human emotions in HIL2008. The TD-2008-0097543(X-5), once fully operational, will supplement voice modification sim ("choked up") through use of synthetic "tears."
Impediment(s): Use of liquid synthetic has adverse reaction on performance of android's other maxillo-facial devices. Can cause diverse MALFs, i.e., hideous braying "laugh," impede function of wrinkle straightening nanodevices under "skin."
Test Result: POS-Glycerine/based compound exuded in small quantity gives acceptable illusion of "teary-eyed" look. HIL2008 android then removes compound manually, or, "wiping away tears."
NEG-Glycerine compound too thick to leave "tearmark."
Recommendation: Use new compound through primaries. Continue to test for acceptable fluid to use in election campaign.

Like a Blood-Swollen Leech, Hillary Tries to Latch Onto Giants' Superbowl Win

This is just disgusting:

ST. PAUL, Minn. - Democrat Hillary Clinton became a super fan of the New York Giants on Sunday, revelling in their upset of the New England Patriots - and even seeing an omen for her own political future.

"Super Bowl, Super Tuesday, we've got one down, let's get the other," said Clinton. Clinton had said she was banking on the "New York team" to carry the day in football's biggest test and in a mega-round of primaries next Tuesday. With their 17-14 win, the Giants held up their end of the bargain.

Wait a minute. Wasn't Hillary, just like the New England Patriots, the "inevitable" winner-in-waiting?

Hillary's got one thing right, though. The Giants, who play their home games in New Jersey, aren't really New Yorkers either.

WSJ: CBS 'Buried the Lead' in WMD Story

Glad someone else noticed.

The Wall Street Journal wonders why CBS' Sixty Minutes editors chose to obfuscate their own story by burying its most important revelation deep within the piece:

Journalists are taught never to "bury the lead." Yet it looks as if that's precisely what CBS's "60 Minutes" did in reporter Scott Pelley's fascinating interview Sunday with George Piro, the FBI agent who debriefed Saddam Hussein following his capture in December 2003.

The Lebanese-born Mr. Piro, one of only a handful of agents at the bureau who speaks Arabic, was able to wheedle information from Saddam over a matter of months through a combination of flattery and ego-deflation that worked wonders with the former despot. But as Bruce Chapman of the Discovery Institute first noticed, the most important news in the segment comes when Mr. Piro describes his conversations with Saddam about weapons of mass destruction. The FBI interrogator says that, while Saddam said he no longer had active WMD programs in 2003, the dictator admitted that he intended to resume those programs as soon as he possibly could.

Well, duh. You can't be a major player in the MSM if you trumpet stunningly exculpatory evidence for the Bush administration in a Presidential election year.

That's just basic American journalistic ethics.
