Here Comes the Lipstick


From Politico:

"Thursday’s hearing helps set the stage for the upcoming debate this spring over White House requests for $33 billion in new war funding coupled with $4.5 billion in foreign assistance, chiefly for Afghanistan and its neighbor Pakistan. Added to this sum will be $2.8 billion more to help Haiti’s recovery from the disastrous January earthquake, and the total package will at least exceed $40 billion."

Thus "I'm voting for the war supplemental because it's the last one" and "I want to support my president" will be transformed this month into "But I caaaaaaaaaaan't vote against aid for Haiti. This is horseshit and needs to be called out now. If the war supplemental fails, they can and will pass the lipstick separately. And if $4.5 billion is to help Afghanistan, ask yourself what the other $33 billion is to do to it. GET ON THE PHONES NOW and tell them to vote this pig of a bill down.

Haitians don't want their aid used as cover for war funding.

The Senate just held a hearing with Gates and Clinton without telling the public. Here's video and testimony from Clinton and Gates.

How do we throw them all out.......????? I want to vote against all these worthless class and imperial, criminal, whoring elites.

The America Public is getting madder by the day. As soon as their tempers get a little hotter, We'll all show those Congressional officials what the power of the people can really be. We should have already dealt with these rogue reverse pirates{they are stealing from the POOR to give to the RICH. Same old cycle over and over}.
I feel stronger each day that very soon, those elected officials who are head over heels involved with the disrespect of our Country's people and the Constitution will soon receive the just reward they actually deserve.
The November elections will be only the beginning of the people's rath on the government.

"It is pointless to complain of war and a police state when one accepts the premise upon which they are based." - Paul Craig Roberts

9/11 is a lie. Time to wake up.

A CRIMINAL CONGRESS MUST ALSO BE TRIED FOR THESE FASCIST FOREIGN NAZI POLICIES.

and while these clowns, corrupt class politicians are all congratulating their fascist military, war criminals, servile imperial whores, whether women, minorities, all bought off........ THEY ARE COMPLICIT IN THIS SILENCE....FASCIST WAR CRIME:

NATO Smears a Truth-Teller in Afghanistan
by Rethink Afghanistan (videos)
4:16 Q: Why would U.S. and allied forces in Afghanistan go out of their way to smear a journalist?

A: Because he told the truth about a night raid that killed Afghan civilians, including pregnant women.

We spoke with Afghanistan-based journalist Jerome Starkey about his reporting on special forces raids that killed civilians and NATO’s surprising--and disappointing--response. This video contains disturbing images, and an even more disturbing story of violence, and an attempt to silence a truth-teller. It shows why it’s absolutely essential that we keep pushing back against the Pentagon’s message machine.

Can you help us by sharing this with your friends? (VIDEO)

"The War on Afghan Civilians"

http://coyoteprime-runningcauseicantfly.blogspot.com/2010/03/dave-lindor...

EXCERPT:

"Three months after it initially lied about the murder by US forces of eight high school students and a 12-year-old shepherd boy in Afghanistan, and a month after it lied about the slaughter by US forces of an Afghan police commander, a government prosecutor, two of their pregnant wives and a teenage daughter, the US military has been forced to admit (thanks in no small part to the excellent investigative reporting of Jerome Starkey of the London Times), that these and other atrocities were the work of American Special Forces, working in conjunction with “specially trained” (by the US) units of the Afghan Army.

Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the commander of the US war effort in Afghanistan, is he is taking over “direct charge” of Special Forces operations because of “concern” that they were not following his orders to make limiting civilian casualties a “paramount” objective. McChrystal is quoted as saying the US military “carries the burden of the guilt” for the “mistakes” made by those Special Forces.

This has to be a sick joke......"

HILLARY LOVES APPEASING FASCIST FOREIGN WARS OF AGGRESSION
AND SO DO MOST OF THE WORTHLESS CRIMINAL DEMOCRATS.

Take a look at how stupid, reactionary, fascist, both Republican class thugs and Democratic whoring liberal war hawks and Zionist Jews are willing to become....by demanding through a resolution, A fascist WAR WITH IRAN,OF AGGRESSION,......the IDIOT GRAHAM thinks that because Schumer a liberal ZIONIST is willing to be as fascist and criminal as he is.....that this represents "a wide" spectrum of support for two criminal, rogue states, Israel and American fascists.........(BOTH HAVE BEEN CHARGED WITH WAR CRIMES, WAR CRIMINALS, AND ARE MANIPULATING LAWS TO AVOID PROSECUTION......NAZIS.....)

BUT HE IS CLUELESS....THAT CLASS IDEOLOGIES, IMPERIAL IDEOLOGIES IS SHARE BY THE SAME NARROW.....NOT WIDE SPECTRUM OF TWO CRIMINAL APPEASING FASCIST, NEOCONS, FASCIST ZIONISTS JOINED AS EMPIRE WHORES AND THUGS:

War with Iran by Any Other Name

"This week may be looked back on as the pivotal moment when war with Iran entered the mainstream of political thought in the Obama era. At a time when Iranians are standing up to an Iranian government that has been deprived of the Bush-era shadow of war, that shadow is again emerging.

"Bomb Bomb Iran" may be finally crossing over to the pop charts."
