IS MEDIA MISSING THE BIGGER STORY?
As U.S. sources say only 30 people were slaughtered, other sources put the count for today at 40 deaths. Oh well, another day another dollar or two in the Iraq Civil War. It makes me wonder how anyone can "stay the course" when democracy is highly unlikely if not impossible.

In the all these fixed Q&A sessions i wish someone would ask, "Why have over 2.000 Americans died for Iraqi freedom when democracy is unattainable? As soon as we pull out completely, the real party will begin.

Seemingly the biggest story for today is the Moussaoui trial. As bushie blabs he is protecting America he fails to mention that during the Clinton years there were at least five terrorists convicted and he's only tried one defendant for 9/11. Moussaoui, the alleged maniac confessed to everything upon arrest without torture. In fact, very few of the arrests since 9/11 stand up in court, if a trial ever takes place.

After two hard fought years the Moussaoui testimony is devastating to his defense. Media speculates he is tossing in the towel but maybe it is a gauntlet. Perhaps he feels the U.S. Government will not give him the death penalty because they fear a pre-November reprisal from his boss bin Laden. That would end any chance of rethuglicans winning and ruin this glorious bushie legacy.

Anyhow, here's the news followed by some predictions at least as valid and probably more honest than the propaganda spouting political analysts report. Sorry it is from the New York Times but they were first to the internet trough.

Moussaoui Says He Was Part of Plot to Attack White House

Published: March 27, 2006

ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 27 — Zacarias Moussaoui testified in Federal District Court here today that he knew of Al Qaeda's plans to fly jetliners into the World Trade Center and that he was to have piloted an airliner into the White House on Sept. 11, 2001.

Taking the stand before the jury that will determine whether he is put to death or spends the rest of his life in prison, Mr. Moussaoui related in calm, measured language that he was to have been accompanied on his death-dive into the White House by Richard C. Reid, the so-called shoe bomber, among others.

But when asked by his lawyer, Gerald T. Zerkin, about what role he had in planning the attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people, Mr. Moussaoui said, "It's difficult to say for sure what exactly my input was."

And Mr. Moussaoui disputed the suggestion by the chief federal prosecutor, Robert G. Spencer, that he was "a big shot in Al Qaeda," as Mr. Spencer put it in his cross-examination.

First of all, I predict the big fool will "stay the course" no matter what anyone says, unless his own party impeaches or commits him. Notice the symbolism. His course leads over a cliff and in that little hobo bag he carries the U.S. economy.



It goes without saying,
there are bigger bags of loot in the universe.
Long after the fool is out of the picture,
evil forces will still control the world.
Can you say "DIEBOLD?"

I predict this woman can close the mouth of our lion-like media
or is it lying like media? It's all so confusing!



I predict this unholy union will not stand the test of time.



While his sword appears to be ready for action,
I predict this king will not become president.
Sadly, it appears he will not even campaign.



This Knight is still in the running but
I predict his party lacks the guts to
give him the Democratic nomination.



I predict this Knight will win the Democratic nomination for president.



Certainly this gaunt rider is on his way out.
I predict he will eventually resign
but his legacy of DEATH in Iraq will last
long after he's gone.




Now I have a few questions:
First, where is her dress?
Next, I wonder why so many
people bought into the bull
crap stained garment. Was it
worth all this mess? Was 4 years
of peace and prosperity so bad?



If you think I'm about to predict the next president with DIEBOLD
running rampant, you're nuttier than me but I predict it will take
a divinely guided true magician to straighten this mess out. I only
hope he doesn't claim to have Divine guidance.

I taught myself a graphics program yesterday to become more effective in my blogging. A picture is worth a thousand words is true when it comes politics.
