Renaming the Democratic Party

The other political party is trying to change the re-name of the democratic party as the Democrat Socialist Party.

I had to crack up thinking about John Boner, Michael Steal, Rushing Limpbaugh, Lindsay Graham-Cracker, Gitch McConnell, Erect Can't-or, Bobby Gruntle, Sitting in a room trying to decide how best to deceive the general public one more time.

That Party is the one that uses racism to get poor whites in the South that it's OK to ship their jobs overseas and make sure they can't get health care, jobs or decent roads. It's the party that said they would lower taxes and ended up lowering taxes for the very wealthy while increasing the burden for the middle class and lower income people while shifting the burden of many local projects and education from the federal government to the states.

That party just can't seem to see their own demise at the hands of extreme religious, racist and survivalists factions.

That party can't seem to understand they have lost their ability to participate in the public dialogue and help find solutions to problems because the only problem they see is their own loss of respect by the public.

That party can't seem to see that they are losing the very good people who could possibly save the party from their own stupidity. They deride Colin Powell, Charlie Crist, Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe and have already run off Arlen Specter.

My Conclusion the new name for that party since they like Tea parties is just add the "T" to their name and become the:

Republican't Party

Tortured Logic

The CIA Inspector General’s report found that the CIA water boarded Khalid Sheikh Mohammed 183 times in March 2003 and Abu Zubaydah 83 times in August 2002.

Now let's let those dates sink in -

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was captured in Rawalpindi, Pakistan on March 1, 2003 and immediately interrogated being water boarded 183 times that month.


Khalid Sheikh Mohammed was water boarded about six times a day.

On March 28, 2002, CIA and FBI agents, in conjunction with Pakistani intelligence services, raided several safe houses in Pakistan looking for terrorists and members of al-Qaeda. Abu Zubaydah was apprehended from one of the targeted safe houses in Faisalabad, Pakistan

Abu Zubaydah was water boarded about three times a day.

"Dick" Cheney stated recently that we quashed several attempts to attack the U.S. because of that torture. He boasts 7.5 years of no attacks since 9/11. Yet he seems to have conveniently failed to mention the Bush Administration was warned about the danger from Bin Ladin and AlQaeda before taking office and while in office before 9/11. Beyond that the war in Iraq has ended up with the deaths of 4,200 US Troops and over 91,000 Iraqi citizens all comming after 9/11 not to mention the the horror of those families at home and the terror imposed by the administration "selling the war."

Something never mentioned by any of those covering the torture conversation is the true reason to disregard all mention of plots foiled as "Dick" loves to mention (sans truth) is that once these players, especially KSM, were captured AlQaeda scuttled or pushed back their plans because they couldn't count on KSM or Abu Zubaydah not talking.

Just the capture of KSM would have killed all plans.

Of course all of my tortured logic is moot because:

Water boarding IS torture
These two men alone we tortured over 260 times
Whoever approved the torture is guilty
"Dick" said he approved of the torture
"Dick" and George ignored the law
"Dick" and George should be tried in court.

I thought republican'ts ...

Hated Civil Disobedience - "Dick" Cheney approved of Torture when he knew it was against the law but thought it was okay to do it anyway.

Didn't believe in Growing the size of Government - George "Shrub" Bush not only bloated the budget but managed to move the cost of the war out of the budget.

Abhored Activist Judges - Appointed Anton Scalia, John Roberts, Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas who immediately become activists for conservative causes ignoring past rulings.

Believe in Family Values - Proving that divorce and trophy wives are cool

Believe in Fiscal Responsibility - All this while deregulating the banking industry causing the worst fiscal crisis in my long lifetime.

Believe in and Respect the Military - They went into a war under manned and ill equipped against the advice of military leaders and intelligence.

Believe in being tough on Terrorists and Terrorism - They ignored the advice of Richard Clarke that Bin Laden was determined to attack within the U.S.

Wanted to Lower Taxes - But only for Big Business not the Middle Calss or the poor.

Believe in Hard Work - but they mostly live on investments and outsource to other countries or layoff workers on any whim.

... and the beat goes on
