One of the many aspects of the "war for profit" that disturbs me most is the utilization of a lawless "corporate militia" to carry out the most gruesome human rights violations on behalf of this criminal administration.

It's just plain freakin' evil!!!!

1. Now this is something that can be focused on
while Cindy Sheehan does her work in Crawford. This is an issue on which we can pressure Congress. Let's get busy.

3. Exactly. The BushCO/neoCON "arranged" it so these real-life evil-doers,..
,...are shielded from bearing responsibility for their horrific behavior. The situation proves to be one of the greatest failures of our legislative and judicial branches,...both of which have done a "see nothing, hear nothing, speak nothing" breach of their duties.

4. *LOL* the ultra-right-wingers emailed Randi their "talking points".
:rofl:

On the other hand, :wow: these bastards really are engaged in a weird form of psyops. I'll bet their funding evolves around a common fascist circle.

5. No question
What is equally revolting is that this administration has turned the US military into a band of unwilling (hell, maybe some of them are willing) mercenaries on behalf of the oil companies and the war profiteers.
