Pouty, quit your whining and screeching, stretch out your arms, shake your fingers out and at the same time, take some deep breaths, roll your head around, loosen up those neck muscles and quit being so paranoid!

the US constitution defines treason very narrowly and once again the Rowdy is in error. Directly from the Constitution.

Article 3 - The Judicial Branch
Section 3 - Treason

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

The Congress shall have power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.

These idiots keep making the same mistakes over and over and expecting different results. They must be neocons.

Since the Republicans have such a problem with science it is fitting that they do not understand the definition of insanity as presented by Albert Einstein.

Can''t loan the Auto makers 34 Billon ha

Citibank, which managed to lose more than 90 percent of the company''s value%u2014from $244 billion to $20.5 billion-in the space of two years



25 November 2008


The government bailout of Citigroup marks a new stage in the utilization of the public treasury to rescue Wall Street banks and finance houses. The deal reached shortly before midnight Sunday places an estimated $249 billion in taxpayer money at the disposal of Citigroup and the bank%u2019s major shareholders, lenders and executives.


It marks the single biggest government bailout to date

The terms of the deal are extraordinarily favorable to the bank, which is allowed to pay lower-than-market interest on the preferred shares without having to accept any government control over its investment or lending policies.


The current management, headed by CEO Vakrim Pandit, will remain in place. There are no requirements that the bank use the federal money to lend to other banks, businesses or consumers, restrictions on executive compensation are of the same token character as those included in the original $700 billion bank bailout package approved last month by Congress,

Manifest destiny tamed a wilderness, Bush created one.

Seems to me Bush went to Iraq because Saddam was not cooperating with UN inspectors...mainly because Madeline Albright''s screeching about how the sanctions weren''t going to be lifted whether there were any WMD''s found or not...


Posted by RowdynTex at 12:12 AM : Dec 05, 2008

No, he went because Cheney, on a lark, thought it would be a good idea to try this expanding democracy thing.

Hey Georgie, you in?
Sure, what could go wrong?

30 to 100 thousand Iraqis killed (depending on who''s numbers you use)
4 million middle class Iraqi refugees displaced by the war.
A completely wiped out infrastructure. (Imagine, after five whole years their schools and water system aren''''t even close to being what they were pre-war.)
We''''''''ve elevated a possible nuclear threat in the mid-east to most powerful nation status in that region.
Not to mention all of the moral and legal failures wrapped up in this fiasco.

Where they make a wilderness, they call it peace.
