On the subject of emptysuit: Obama defends "Prolonged Detention" instead of Habeas Corpus Obama wants to imprison people for pre-crime: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jshogbjtYs&feature=related Suppression of torture photos instead of promise of transparency Obama wants to conceal evidence of war crimes http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2009/06/05/photos/index.html "President Obama has appointed Alexia Kelley, executive director of Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good (CACG), to head the Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships at the Department of Health and Human Services. ... Kelley has made clear that she seeks instead to reduce access to abortion. That is an extremely disturbing development, especially coming this week in the wake of George Tiller's assassination." http://alegrescorner.soapblox.net/showDiary.do?diaryId=3072 Forget about FISA. Forget about the Fourth Amendment that prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/constitution/1197 On the "Journal", Scahill says how the war policies of Barack Obama are no different or radical from that of the George Bush Administration. The Obama Government has just started following the old government policies regarding the Middle East war situation. The statistics in those nations show that at present, over two fifty thousand contractors are battling it out in Iraq and Afghanistan. It accounts for almost about fifty percent of the total US force. http://www.thaindian.com/newsportal/world/jeremy-scahill-on-bill-moyers-journal_100201638.html Obama's media guys are good at re-framing the language of Bush polices but it's still Bush Lite. His emptysuit blows which ever way the wind blows as he does the bidding of corporations. Sorry, Rick, I just checked in with myself and there are no irrational female driven emotions to be found. Just the facts.
