News from Iraq has all but disappeared.
I have to go to Al-Jazeera/english just to find out what the cheney is going on in Iraq. Seems our news organizations have once again rolled over and played dead at the request of their master. Bushco.

3. Yawn. It's just like that in all Totalitarian Nations, not just Amerika
We would get the same "excellent" :puke: media coverage if we lived in Pinochet's Chile or Stalin's Russia or marcos' Phillipines.

Yawn. Boring. Imperial Amerika media is increasingly a Totalitarian Laughingstock. And everyone knows it, except the Imperial Subjects of America, who deserve the Media of Slaves they (we) have.

5. Some things are in the news
like the executions done personally by the new anointed strongman with members of the US military watching the procedure.

Also in the news, but less visible, is the story that some of the photos that the gummint and the Washington Post are sitting on feature the buggery of children.

Other than that, nothing new today. Pipeline sabotage was yesterday, as was the car bomb.

Grand Imperial Viceroy of the Iraq Prefectate...his work in Honduras precedes him.

11. The word "Iraq" does not even appear on CNN opening webpage.
Good homage to the men & women dying over there. No longer front page news.

13. I posted along time ago that the war would be over June 30 and nobody beli
believed me.

I remember Bush in one of his speeches sayin he had a "cunning" plan - well he did and it is working.
