Jim Freeman's op-ed pieces have appeared in the New York Times, Chicago Tribune, International Herald Tribune, CNN, New York Review, OpEdNews, and other similar publications.
The opener is pretty much all you need to know in trading off the ‘fair
and balanced’ position of this article co-authored by Israelist Louis Rene Beres and his warmongering buddy, Major General Paul (surgical and fast) Vallely, U.S. Army (retarded).
In the dance this administration orchestrated over the still-warm corpse of American values, ‘abhorrent’ has come to mean ‘offensive to the mind, but allowable.’ Most of us were flim-flammed by the wording, victims of adminispeak; in common context, the synonyms are repulsive, detestable, obscene and repugnant.
First it was going to be term limits, everybody’s silver bullet for political corruption. Then it was lobbyist legislation. Next, the big buzz-word was campaign-finance legislation.
It’s almost too apparent to compare current refusals-to-submit of the Bush-Cheney White House with the bad old days of Richard Nixon stonewalling similar inquiry. Both
used ‘executive privilege’ as an excuse to ward off the evil minions
who would do them dirt—dastardly organizations like the House of
Representatives, the Senate and the courts.
My gut tells me it’s probably a good thing the Department of Homeland Security
is feeling the heat again. I hated that communist sounding
Slavs-in-a-wheatfield name anyway. Americans have celebrated their
country for 231 years, but hardly their homeland. You don’t see Yanks dropping to their knees to kiss the ground of the homeland when they get off airplanes. Mostly they’re just relieved to still have their shoes and the belt-buckle they got on with.
Like lemmings headed off a cliff, Ford, Chrysler and General Motors
sent their emissaries to Congress, demanding equal rights among
themselves to pound the final nails into their collective coffins.
Lacking a sensitivity for irony, no one among the various Senators
being strong-armed handed out ‘Been There, Done That’ tee shirts.
President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard B. Cheney and Attorney
General Alberto Gonzales have committed violations and subversions of
the Constitution of the United States of America. Individually and
certainly collectively, these three have committed impeachable high crimes and misdemeanors, as noted in the Constitution.
A couple of interesting commentaries have surfaced lately, since
Gonzales was caught flat-footed in the middle of the fired U.S.
Attorneys controversy. One of them is by CBS News legal analyst, Andrew Cohen, another by James Moore, co-author of Bush’s Brain.
