Review and Comment on the News 1/27/06
01.27.06 (7:59 am)   [edit]
Al "Occidental Petroleum" Gore, accuses "Big Oil" of  financially backing the Tories and their Ultra-Conservative leader Stephen Harper in his quest for global hegemony. What a dick....



Darcie Park, spokeswoman for oilsands giant Suncor Energy, said she's taken aback by Gore's remarks and hopes they don't resonate with Canadians.
"Our company just doesn't do business that way. We're really puzzled about where these comments came from," she said.

So are we Darcie, so are we. Hamas to form new
government, the destruction of Israel now becomes government policy. So this is where Al gets his meds? I've often wondered...

US authorities have discovered, what they say is the largest and most sophisticated tunnel under their border with Mexico, one that was used by drug trafficking gangs.

Saddam's Number Two General: Saddam's WMD were moved to Syria. If a democrat had said this about Swanny it would've been widely celebrated in the "Celebrate Diversity" circles. 51% of Americans support airstrikes against Iran to deal with their "nucular" program:

A majority of Americans, 51 percent, would now support air strikes to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, while a plurality would support air strikes coupled with a ground invasion. That according to a new FOX News poll, which shows that 56 percent of Americans think Iran poses an immediate or near-term threat to the United States. Just seven percent said the country is not a danger to U.S. security.

I'd like to meet the 7%, I probably have, who am I kidding. Iraqis and Afghanis among the most optimistic in the world. (HT Tammy Bruce) Kinda blows the whole Howard Dean Talking Points Template: They hate us, Amerikka is evil, Bush is Hitler, blah,blah blah.

Iraqis and Afghans are among the most optimistic people in the world when it comes to their economic future, a new survey for the BBC suggests.

Italians join people in Zimbabwe and DR Congo as the most downcast about their future, according to the poll of 37,500 people in 32 nations. 

 Civil War in Iraq: That's it. It's official, Murtha said it, it is law. Princess Di still dead. By the way, what's an Inquirt?

Quote of the Day, Thomas
Sowell:

The media seem to have come up with a formula that would make any war in history unwinnable and unbearable: They simply emphasize the enemy's victories and our losses.

 Losses suffered by the enemy are not news, no matter how large, how persistent, or how clearly they indicate the enemy's declining strength.
What are the enemy's victories in Iraq? The killing of Americans and the killing of Iraqi civilians.

Both are big news in the mainstream media, day in and day out, around the clock.
Has anyone ever believed that any war could be fought without deaths on both sides? Every death is a tragedy to the individual killed and to his loved ones. But is there anything about American casualty rates in Iraq that makes them more severe than casualty rates in any other war we have fought?
