whatever it fakes, amerika

* ok - so mmoore wants to publish the nyt wea kinda culpa in his book but the nyt wont let him. Daniel Okrent, public editor of The New York Times, justifies it thus: “I don’t like to be used for people’s political purposes.” really.

* "Indicators measure the nation’s unemployment rate, consumer spending and other economic milestones, but Vice President Dick Cheney says it misses the hundreds of thousands who make money selling on eBay." please.make.it.stop.http://www.qctimes.com/internal.php?story_id=1034852&t=Business&c=31,1034852

* "Who The Hell Is "Undecided"? These polls are designed solely to mangle your head and confound your synapses and elate you and titillate you and then plunge you into instant despair and then yank you back out at the last second like some sort of "Fear Factor" death-plunge moronism." indeed :-) http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/g/a/2004/09/10/notes091004.DTL&nl=fix

* " Furthermore, as we have seen, terror alerts can and probably will be used to stop any single story that seems to be gaining traction." http://www.buzzflash.com/contributors/04/09/con04379.html hmmm. true. given that there seems to be a couple of current stories that might do some damage to the egadmin, then praps a terror a lert is on the way. the world needs more lerts. and if the lert doesnt do, then some plain ol terror mite do the job. of course 'there seems to be a couple of current stories that might do some damage' is something ive been saying for way way too long. and it never does.
its a triffic article tho - worth a read (and his movie is worth watching too)

* seems to me theres only one legitimate target for a legitimate pre-emptive war.

* heres the link between the coke 'rumours' and the awol thingy ;-) "Bush signed up for a six-year military service obligation to the Guard, writing in his "statement of intent" that he planned to make "flying a lifetime pursuit." http://www.usnews.com/usnews/news/articles/roane040908.htm

* btw - i read something a year or so ago that the key to this 43 awol thingy is that he was in buttfark nowhere doing community service for drug crimes (rather than going to prison). i dont know if its true. id love to see him abug'd.

* "The vice president said what he had meant was that if the United States is attacked again, he believed Kerry would fall back on a "pre-9/11 mind-set" on foreign policy instead of the "pre-emptive" doctrine pursued by President Bush" - heres a quick question: what has bush done that would stop another 911? seriously. http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20040910/pl_nm/campaign_cheney_dc_7

* the cbs memo thing is starting to look like a cross between the forged niger documents and those fake brit abug-type pix in the Mirror. and while everyone is quickly becoming an expert in selectric typefacing, theres a war or 2 going on, democracy and freedom are being buttfarked and there are 7 short weeks till the election. what on earth (or in heaven) are the next 4 years gonna look like? (assuming that the 4-year constraint will still hold). and btw - the whole 'rove is a genius' thing is baloney - if u dont have any shame, its all very straightfwd and predictable - all u have to do is assume that other people assume that u have even a skerrick of integrity.

* in a stroke of good timing - heres xymph on the communityservice issue http://xymphora.blogspot.com/2004/09/bush-drugs-texas-and-1972.html
