THIS JUST IN! ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS ARIANNA!

 
NEWBIE DEMOCRAT ARIANNA HUFFINGTON LEFT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND STEPPED OVER TO THE DEMOCRATS WITH OUT EVER REALLY ISSUING A MEA CULPA JUST A LOT OF CRAP THAT SHE ONCE BELIEVED IN THE PARTY.
 
BECAUSE SHE HAD A LOT OF MONEY TO TOSS AROUND, A LOT OF PEOPLE GAVE HER A PASS.
 
AT THE HUFFINGTON POST -- HER BLOG THAT'S FOND OF PULLING TOGETHER QUOTES FROM GEORGE CLOONEY INTERVIEWS AND SAYING HE WROTE THE PIECE AS WELL AS ALLOWING BAD SITCOM NOBODIES TO MAKE 'JOKES' ABOUT THE MENTALLY CHALLENGED -- SHE LAUNCHES NON-STOP ATTACKS ON HILLARY CLINTON AND TODAY LET'S LITTLE KAREN RUSSELL RELY ON FACTCHECK.ORG AND BRING UP WHITEWATER TO TRY TO SILENCE CRITICISM OF BAMBI AND THE KINGPIN REZKO.
 
FACTCHECK.ORG SAID OF JOHN KERRY'S REMARKS ABOUT BULLY BOY NOT BUDGETING FOR THE RETURNING WOUNDED IN A 2004 DEBATE?  THAT BULLY BOY'S BUDGET WAS FINE AND DANDY.  FACTCHECK.ORG HAS BLOOD ON THEIR  HANDS AND ONLY AN IDIOT WOULD BELIEVE THEM.  THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HEALTH CARE CRISIS AND THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR VETERANS WHO HAVE COMMITTED SUICIDE BECAUSE THEY LIED.  THEY LIED, GET IT, THEY LIED.
 
AS FOR WHITEWATER, SOMEONE TELL RUSSELL THERE WERE MANY INVESTIGATIONS INTO THAT ALREADY -- GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATIONS.  HILLARY CLINTON WAS NOT GUILTY OF ANYTHING.
 
SO THAT'S KAREN RUSSELL AT THE PLATE TWICE AND STRIKING OUT BOTH TIMES.  ARIANNA WILL HAVE TO BRING ON ANOTHER LOVE ZOMBIE.
 
IN THE MEANTIME, MAYBE SHE CAN EXPLAIN HER WEALTH?
 
WHY DOESN'T SHE START WITH HER MARRIAGE SINCE SHE SPENT SO MUCH TIME SNOOPING INTO THE CLINTON'S MARRIAGE?
 
WHAT SORT OF WOMAN STAYS MARRIED TO A GAY MAN?
 
MAYBE SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHEN THEY GOT MARRIED BUT BY THE TIME SHE'S HAVING TO USE VIDEOS OF SCANTILY CLAD MEN SO THAT MICHAEL HUFFINGTON CAN GET IT UP JUST SO THEY CAN TRY TO HAVE A CHILD, SHE KNOWS THE SCORE.
 
SO WHAT WAS IT ARIANNA?  DID YOU SELL YOURSELF OUT FOR MONEY? 
 
WERE YOU TEARING INTO BILL AND HILLARY IN THE 90S BECAUSE YOU WEREN'T GETTING ANY AND YOUR OWN HUSBAND WAS STEPPING OUT?
 
EXPLAIN TO AMERICA HOW YOU COULD LECTURE ABOUT MORALITY WHILE PRETENDING TO BE HAPPILY MARRIED.  AND AS A MEMBER OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WHICH WAS LAUNCHING YET ANOTHER ATTACK ON GAY AMERICANS.
 
THE COUNTRY IS DYING TO KNOW.
 
YOU MADE SCANDALS YOUR BUSINESS IN THE 90S, SO AIR YOUR OWN DIRTY PANTIES, ARIANNA. 
 
 
WHILE YOU'RE ANSWERING QUESTIONS, ANSWER WHERE THE HELL YOU GET OFF INSULTING AN ANTHEM OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT?  OR ARE YOU TOO STUPID TO KNOW THAT "KUMBAYA" WAS AN ANTHEM?
 
REMEMBER EVERYONE, THIS DECADE ARIANNA SAYS VOTE FOR BAMBI, LAST DECADE SHE SAID VOTE FOR NEWT.  SHE ALSO SAID SHE WAS HAPPILY MARRIED.  HER RECORD OF TRUTHFULNESS JUST ISN'T THERE.
 
 
Starting with war resistance.  In Canada, people are gearing up for action.  Why?   On November 15th, the Supreme Court of Canada refused to hear the appeals of  war resisters Jeremy Hinzman and Brandon Hughey.  Parliament is the solution.Three e-mails addresses to focus on are: Prime Minister Stephen Harper (pm@pm.gc.ca -- that's pm at gc.ca) who is with the Conservative party and these two Liberals, Stephane Dion (Dion.S@parl.gc.ca -- that's Dion.S at parl.gc.ca) who is the leader of the Liberal Party and Maurizio Bevilacqua (Bevilacqua.M@parl.gc.ca -- that's Bevilacqua.M at parl.gc.ca) who is the Liberal Party's Critic for Citizenship and Immigration. A few more can be found here at War Resisters Support Campaign. For those in the US, Courage to Resist has an online form that's very easy to use. Both War Resisters Support Campaign and Courage to Resist are calling for actions from January 24-26.  The War Resisters Support Campaign has more on the action in Canada:
 
The War Resisters Support Campaign has called a pan-Canadian mobilization on Saturday, January 26th, 2008 to ensure :
1) that deportation proceedings against U.S. war resisters currently in Canada cease immediately; and 2) that a provision be enacted by Parliament ensuring that U.S. war resisters refusing to fight in Iraq have a means to gain status in Canada.
For listings of local actions, see our Events page. If you are able to organize a rally in your community, contact the Campaign -- we will list events as details come in.
 
 
Join and support January 25 vigils and delegations in support of U.S. war resisters currently seeking sanctuary Canada. Actions are being planned in Washington D.C., New York, Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Supporters will meet with officials at Canadian Consulates across the United States in order underscore that many Americans hope that the Canadian Parliament votes (possible as early as February) in favor of a provision to allow war resisters to remain. Download and distribute Jan. 25-26 action leaflet (PDF).
Supporting the war resisters in Canada is a concrete way to demonstrate your support of the troops who refuse to fight. Help end the war by supporting the growing GI resistance movement today!
Organize a delegation to a Canadian Consulate near you .
Host an event or house-party in support of war resisters.
 
Jason Youman (Canada's Monday Magazine) reports "Canada's War Resisters Support Campaign is mobilizing for a Pan-Canadian Day of Action on Saturday, January 26.
The purpose, says Victoria organizer Valerie Lannon, is to persuade the federal government to halt deportation proceedings against U.S. army deserters already in Canada, and pass legislation that would allow future resisters to stay in the country as refugees once they cross the border."  Youman notes the Victoria event will be held at Fairfield United Church Hall, 1303 Fairfield road (beginning at ten a.m.) and that speakers will include Member of Parliament Denise Savoie and "American war resister Brad McCall, who has lived in Vancouver since leaving his army company in Colorado Springs in September. McCall has been vocal in his distaste of America's current role in Iraq, telling the Georgia Straight he didn't want to participate in 'war crimes.' McCall allegedly spent two days in a Surrey detention centre when he crossed the Canadian border."
 
The War Resisters Support Campaign's Lee Zaslofsky explains to NOW magazine, "The rally is one of a number being held across Canada because we believe we are close to a decision on two issues: that deportation proceedings against U.S. war resisters currently in Canada cease immediately; and that a provision be enacted by Parliament ensuring that U.S. war resisters refusing to fight in Iraq have a means to gain status in Canada."  The rally he is speaking of -- also on Saturday -- takes place in Toronto at the Bloor Street United Church, 300 Bloor St. West, beginning at 1:00 p.m. and will feature, among others, activist and actress Shirley Douglas, Lawrence Hill (co-author of The Deserter's Tale with Joshua Key) and Member of Parliament Olivia Chow who has led on the issue of war resisters from early on. Those and other actions in Canada take place on Saturday.  Go to War Resisters Support Campaign for more information and if you won't be in Canada, actions will take place everywhere with Courage to Resist calling for actions beginning tomorrow.

Courage to Resist offers information on all public war resisters. Tom Joad maintains a list of known war resisters. In addition, VETWOW is an organization that assists those suffering from MST (Military Sexual Trauma).
 
 

 
In 1971, over one hundred members of Vietnam Veterans Against the War gathered in Detroit to share their stories with America. Atrocities like the My Lai massacre had ignited popular opposition to the war, but political and military leaders insisted that such crimes were isolated exceptions. The members of VVAW knew differently.
Over three days in January, these soldiers testified on the systematic brutality they had seen visited upon the people of Vietnam. They called it the Winter Soldier investigation, after Thomas Paine's famous admonishing of the "summer soldier" who shirks his duty during difficult times. In a time of war and lies, the veterans who gathered in Detroit knew it was their duty to tell the truth.
Over thirty years later, we find ourselves faced with a new war. But the lies are the same. Once again, American troops are sinking into increasingly bloody occupations. Once again, war crimes in places like Haditha, Fallujah, and Abu Ghraib have turned the public against the war. Once again, politicians and generals are blaming "a few bad apples" instead of examining the military policies that have destroyed Iraq and Afghanistan.
Once again, our country needs Winter Soldiers.
In March of 2008, Iraq Veterans Against the War will gather in our nation's capital to break the silence and hold our leaders accountable for these wars. We hope you'll join us, because yours is a story that every American needs to hear.

 
March 13th through 16th are the dates for the Winter Soldier Iraq & Afghanistan Investigation. Dee Knight (Workers World) notes, "IVAW wants as many people as possible to attend the event. It is planning to provide live broadcasting of the sessions for those who cannot hear the testimony firsthand. 'We have been inspired by the tremendous support the movement has shown us,' IVAW says. 'We believe the success of Winter Soldier will ultimately depend on the support of our allies and the hard work of our members'."
 
Monday night, Democratic presidential contenders had a debate.  And the same little media that whines about big media's lack of substance was where the next day?  Or, in the continued embarrassment that is William Greider, days later?  Greider seems intent to telegraph to anyone that everything he had he gave to Rolling Stone and reading him now is like watching a dying man waste away.  Yesterday he sputtered about "Slick Willie" and a "blue dress."  Yes, he really is that pathetic and so is The Nation.  Maybe after this election he can return to another multi-page piffle of 'lessons' he learned about heart and soul from his mommy?  From  Tuesday's "Iraq snapshot:"

Hillary Clinton: We don't know what we're going to inherent from President Bush, but there is a big problem looming on the horizon that we had better pay attention to, and that is President Bush is intent upon negotiating a long-term agreement with Iraq which would have permanent bases, permanent troop presence. And he claims he does not need to come to the United States Congress to get permission, he only needs to go to the Iraqi parliament. That is his stated public position. He was recently in the region, and it is clear that he intends to push forward on this to try to bind the United States government and his successor to his failed policy. I have been strongly opposed to that. We should not be planning permanent bases and long-term troop commitments. Obvioulsy, we've got to rein in President Bush. And I've proposed legislation and I know that members of the Congressional Black Caucus are looking at this, as well. We need legislation in a hurry which says, "No, Mr. Bush, you are the president of the United States of America. You cannot bind our country without coming to the United States Congress." This is a treaty that would have to be presented and approved, and it will not be.
 
Yes, that was said in the debate.  But try to find out about it from the Hillary Hating left.  Katrina vanden Heuvel can't sniff it -- surprising.  Little Matty Rothschild (who will receive "Smut Merchant of the Week" at The Third Estate Sunday Review this week -- and he earned it and then some, hiding behind the right-wing to make the slur he's too 'tasteful' to make on his own) can't find it.  John Nichols, Amy Goodman, the Air No-Stars of The Nation's Campaign blog, not even Stab's half-witted daughter (that's half a wit more than her mother) can find it.  They all pretended to write about and comment on the debate.  But they just showed glimpses of their own inner madness -- and, no, they didn't work through their madness, just flashed it.
 
Michael Abramowitz (Washington Post) explains, "The leading Democratic presidential candidates and their allies on Capitol Hill have launched fierce attacks in recent days on a White House plan to forge a new, long-term security agreement with the Iraqi government, complaining that the administration is trying to lock in a lasting U.S. military presence in Iraq before the next president takes office. Among the top critics is Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.). She has used the past two Democratic presidential debates to blast President Bush for his effort, as she put it Monday in South Carolina, 'to try to bind the United States government and his successor to his failed policy'."  It is a big issue, it is a monumental issue for this country and Iraq but it's not one the Half-Wits and Dim-Bulbs of today's 'independent' media could catch with both hands and their big mouths wide open.  It's amazing what the gas bags produced this week, the same ones who whine and whine about Big Media.  In their own spaces this week, they threw tantrums, soiled their nappys and demonstrated they could pout for days at a time.
 
At the grown ups table, Guy Raz (NPR) explains that Bully Boy and his puppet, Nouri al-Maliki started the whole thing in November with "Declaration of Principles" and "includes a provision that promises to maintain the stability of Iraq's government from 'internal and external threats.'  This sentence is raising alarms for some U.S. lawmakers.  Any such agreement would be considered a treaty by many legal experts.  And under the U.S. Constitution, treaties have to be ratified by Congress."  vanen Heuvel purrs about democracy this week but somehow the checks and balances set out in the Constitution, the separation of powers, doesn't enter into her concept of 'democracy'. 
 
Supposedly the gas bags of Little Media want 'issues.'  But look at the trash they offered this week -- and William Kristol at his worst couldn't have provided more trash, not even with an assist from David Brock before his transformation -- and try to figure out where any issue was?  As they offered their smut, where was any issue?  They wasted 2007 covering the 2008 elections and they offered nothing.  It's now 2008 and they still offer nothing.  William Greider thinks a "blue dress" is a way to tar and feather Hillary and doesn't grasp that it only makes him look like the cheap scum he's become.
