BARBARA'S DAILY BUZZFLASH MINUTE

“Fox News personality Bill O'Reilly got the ball rolling, lashing out at DailyKos … Today on Fox News Sunday, Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol attacked the Democratic presidential candidates for their decision to attend the YearlyKos blogger convention.” The two Bills, together they don’t add up to one insignificant poor excuse for a human being!  Honestly whenever and wherever they open their mouths, nothing but hot air blows!  For God’s sake, leave them to FOX NEWS info-TAINT-ment where they are just loony-birds that flock together!

“WASHINGTON -- Oregonians called Peter DeFazio's office, worried there was a conspiracy buried in the classified portion of a White House plan for operating the government after a terrorist attack. As a member of the U.S. House on the Homeland Security Committee, DeFazio, D-Ore., is permitted to enter a secure "bubbleroom" in the Capitol and examine classified material. So he asked the White House to see the secret documents. On Wednesday, DeFazio got his answer: DENIED.  Bush administration spokesman Trey Bohn declined to say why DeFazio was denied access: "We do not comment through the press on the process that this access entails. It is important to keep in mind that much of the information related to the continuity of government is highly sensitive."  Of course it was DENIED, they don’t want anyone to know exactly how they plan to take over the government!

Sounds like double talk clearly meant to let Bush off the hook, just in case they get caught again torturing and abusing "detainees": "TOWNSEND: Wolf, I want to be very, very clear. We have not, we do not, and we will not ever use torture. So torture has never been on the table. The president's executive order goes into great detail about giving people the assurances that we will not use cruel and inhuman treatment. We will use enhanced techniques, but it's under very strict guidelines. You should know that each individual that implements it at the CIA, that program, goes through 280 hours of individualized training."

George Bush is “delusional” and so is anyone who thinks he plans to leave office in 2008!  Everything he’s done up to and since arriving in Washington, D.C. indicates his desire to be King George of America!!!  He believes he’s entitled, he believes it’s his due, he believes he IS the law, he believes in doing whatever it takes to accomplish his goal, after all, his name is BUSH in case anyone needed a reminder!!!!

* * *

Lest we forget, George Bush is the reason “al-Qaeda  has reconstituted its central organization, putting the United States in a 'heightened threat environment.'" This latest report just goes to prove George Bush will do anything to maintain his eternal war!  Does anyone really think the man who got us into this mess can now get us out???  Following the “pied piper” any further into this death knell is not the solution to the horror he created!

My hero, United States Senator Russ Feingold!  One of the few patriots left in Congress with integrity and conviction!  The man who isn’t afraid to bring truth to power: “Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Russ Feingold announced today that he will introduce two censure resolutions condemning the President, Vice President and other administration officials for misconduct relating to the war in Iraq and for their repeated assaults on the rule of law. Feingold called the resolutions appropriate and necessary steps for Congress to rebuke an administration that is responsible for some of the worst misconduct and the worst abuses of the law in American history.”

“FEMA Knew Of Toxic Gas In Trailers: The Federal Emergency Management Agency since early 2006 has suppressed warnings from its own field workers about health problems experienced by hurricane victims living in government-provided trailers with levels of a toxic chemical 75 times the recommended maximum for U.S. workers, congressional lawmakers said yesterday.” “Premeditated ignorance” or intentional malfeasance????  Given the Bush administrations lack of response to the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, and now this additional government provided horror, it leaves one wondering -- why do they really want to eliminate the citizens of New Orleans???

* * * 

“MCCONNELL: Yeah. You know, today marks the 200th day of the new Congress. And I'm kind of stunned that Senator Feingold just recommended on the heels of the all-night theater of Tuesday night gives you a sense, Wolf, of why this Congress now has a 14 percent approval rating. We think it's the lowest in the history of polling.” The 14% approval rating is actually a result of the Repuglicans rubber stamping George Bush’s every whim, you moron!  It’s about time for investigations, in fact, if you guys were doing your jobs, IMPEACHMENT proceedings should have begun long ago!

“I don't know how we would be successful in impeaching the president," Pelosi said.” Passing Articles of Impeachment would be a good place to start!
