-- Bush Crime Family Is the "Mountain of Corruption" on which all the
other molehills live(dating back to granpappy Prescott Bush's
patnership with Adolph Hitler) ... it is a symbiotic coupling, cut off
the head of the serpent and the culture of corruption surrounding and
supporting Bush Crime Family will fade. NOVEMBER IS A REFERENDUM ON
IMPEACHMENT OF THE BUSH CRIME FAMILY...do your part to save mankind...
vote Democrat (or if the Green Candidate is winning vote Green)
Karl Rove exposed, thus destroying, a legitimate undercover CIA
operation that was protecting the U.S. and the world from black market
nuclear weapons... WHY? because they had proven that Bush was lying
about WMD's in Iraq before the 2004 elections. Karl Rove, one of the
main people who tells Bush what to say(everyone knows Bush is dumb as a
rock) is guilty of TREASON.

The Tipping Point
By William Rivers Pitt
t r u t h o u t | Perspective
Let's see.
Anything important happen over the last several days?
Seventeen American soldiers have been killed in Iraq since Saturday.
Dozens of civilians have died in the last few days as the sectarian
civil war in Baghdad reaches new and horrific levels of violence.
The bombers have gotten clever, it seems; they detonate one device to
bring in rescue workers, police and onlookers.
When the post-blast crowd is thick enough, they detonate another
device.
Condoleezza Rice has been exposed once again as a bad liar.
Several new reports confirm that CIA Director Tenet and CIA
Counterterrorism Director Black did, in fact, deliver a stern warning
to her regarding an impending terror attack two months before 9/11.
That same warning was given one week later to Defense Secretary
Rumsfeld and Attorney General Ashcroft, in a briefing described as a
"10 out of 10" on the Take-This-Seriously-o-Meter by the official who
prepared it.
Rice, Rumsfeld and Ashcroft all received frightening warnings before
the attacks, with Bush getting the August 6th PDB warning to cap it
off, and nothing came of it.
This moves matters well beyond simple negligence.
It is abundantly clear that there was a policy in place to whistle past
any and all terror warnings in the months before 9/11.
It wasn't about incompetence.
It was policy.
Disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff reappeared on the scene over these
last few days.
A bipartisan Congressional report described hundreds of contacts
between Abramoff and the White House, including 82 contacts with Karl
Rove's office and at least ten between Abramoff and Rove himself.
Recall that former White House spokesman Scott McClellan brushed off
any White House-Abramoff associations back in January, describing them
merely as a "few staff-level meetings."
Congressman Henry Waxman, minority chair for the House Government
Reform Committee, released a massive batch of emails from Abramoff to
various Washington DC power players.
In one, dated March 18, 2002, Abramoff wrote, "I was sitting yesterday
with Karl Rove, Bush's top advisor, at the NCAA basketball game,
discussing Israel when this email came in. I showed it to him. It seems
that the President was very sad to have to come out negatively
regarding Israel, but that they needed to mollify the Arabs for the
upcoming war on Iraq."
"The upcoming war in Iraq," wrote Abramoff casually, one year and two
days before the invasion was undertaken.
It seems those "few staff-level meetings" availed Abramoff of some
significant information.
How this criminal came to know war in Iraq was coming before the rest
of the world did is something that deserves a great deal of intense
scrutiny.
So, yeah, a few things have bubbled up in the last few days that, one
would think, might bring a drop of sweat or two out on any number of
Republican brows.
Amazingly enough, however, it isn't the war or the 9/11 lies and
failures or even Abramoff that is inspiring the Republican
perspiration.
No, it's a sex scandal. Of course.
The details, which everyone but a few hermits living in caves deep
below the earth have heard by now, are astonishingly lurid.
Congressman Mark Foley, Republican of Florida, engaged in long bouts of
sexually charged email and Instant Message correspondence with male
teenage Congressional pages.
In one graphic instance, Foley indulged in online sex with a page while
waiting for a vote on funding appropriations for the Iraq war.
This man, it should be noted, was co-chair of the Congressional Missing
and Exploited Children's Caucus.
Foley quit his office two hours after being asked about these emails
and IMs by ABC News reporters, making his departure from Washington the
fastest on record since the British torched the city in 1814.
House Speaker Dennis Hastert, who apparently knew of Foley's
predilections, is currently being savaged on all sides for his failure
to deal with the situation.
The word "resignation" is being bandied about, and Hastert may well be
fed to the wolves by his fellow Republicans, who need a scandal like
this on the eve of razor-close midterm elections about as much as they
need ... well ... about as much as they need a pedophile in their
caucus.
Foley, after resigning, claimed all these bad things he's done are
because he is an alcoholic.
He has entered a clinic, run by the Scientologists, for treatment of
alcohol abuse and behavioral disorders.
Foley's lawyer appeared before cameras on Tuesday to reiterate the
claim that all this happened because of the demon rum, and then took it
one step further:
Foley's attraction to children is a product of the sexual abuse he
absorbed as a youth at the hands of an unnamed clergyman.
Interesting, that.
There are hundreds of people alive today who were molested by priests
when they were children, and there are probably millions of alcoholics
abroad in the land.
One wonders how many of these people, especially those exposed to the
wretched behavior of priests, went on in life to stalk and sexually
dabble with children.
It cannot be denied that the abuse Foley absorbed, if true, was
unimaginably damaging.
Yet rumor has it that he is a member of The Party of Personal
Responsibility.
That boat, it seems, is taking on water.
Foley is not a pedophile, said the lawyer.
Foley absolutely did not engage in direct sexual activity with
children.
The lawyer should have checked his notes.
In April of 2003, Foley apparently had a dalliance with an underaged
page which he later commented on in an Instant Message.
"I miss you lots since san diego," reads the message obtained by ABC
News.
Hm.
The reaction on the Right has been scattered, to say the least.
Social conservatives and the family values brigades have been thrown so
off-stride by the Foley scandal that they cannot decide whether to
scratch their watches or wind their butts.
Many have simply gone silent.
More than a few, however, have gone into full battle mode.
It is all a Democratic plot, said Rush Limbaugh.
It's a plot to destroy me, said Speaker Hastert.
In one unutterably amusing scene, the Fox News Network reported on the
Foley scandal and flashed his picture on the screen three different
times.
Beneath the picture was a caption that read, "Mark Foley (D-Fla.)."
Yep, he's a Democrat now.
It is difficult to nail down which aspect of all this is more
repugnant.
Certainly, a congressman using his position to prey on children, all
the while sitting on a committee aimed at protecting children from
people like him, is beneath contempt.
Almost equally disgusting has been the all-too-familiar chorus from
bigots like Pat Buchanan, who cannot miss an opportunity to conflate
homosexuality with pedophilia.
To paraphrase comedian Chris Rock, that train's never late.
But perhaps worst of all is the fact that a story like this is what
captures the complete attention of the news media, and by proxy,
captures the attention of the American public.
Iraq, 9/11 and Abramoff don't pique the interest of those tasked to
report the facts.
A sex scandal, however, is a five-alarm house on fire.
This does not say much for them, and in the end, doesn't say much for
the rest of us, either.
Still, there is this.
Columnist Molly Ivins once famously noted that you got to dance with
them what brung ya.
This Foley scandal may well become the tipping point that drives this
catastrophically dangerous Republican party out of power in Congress
come November, and may finally unleash an avalanche that will sweep
some degree of accountability back into government.
It is sad and sorry and sick that it took the exposure of a molester to
even entertain the possibility, but then again, this is George W.
Bush's America.
Sad and sorry and sick have been our watchwords for a very long time.
