A funny take-off. good work.

The mommy party will never stand up to the biggest dick of the daddy party tho. It would infuriate the daddy worshippers, and you guys could even lose the election over it. The natural human response is to avoid eye-contact with the most violent of the asshole-males.

To find the difference between Dick and Hillary Clinton, please google: Hillary Clinton AIPAC to see her performance speech kow-towing to the Israel lobby while threatening nuclear war on Iran. Then for comparison see: Rev. Hagee AIPAC and find no difference to the tone of this Christian Zionist war monger cultist. So how much disinformation does she generate? Remember Hillary´s perfect Dick voting record prior to her campaign launch! For the unsuspecting, please read Jimmy Carter´s Palestine Apartheid book. If Clinton is elected the fascists will still be in power.

Our entire Foreign Policy is based protecting Zionism, which even Jews throughout the world and in Israel are beginning to reject. The idea that a country exists merely for an idea developed by Theodore Herzl in Basil, where in 1897 he developed the idea of Zionism; that the religion, Judaism, should have a homeland and planned the first Zionist Congress.

This was the fall-out of the trial titled: The Dryfeuss Affair, the prosecution of a French Jewish Army Captain accused of spying for Germany. This lead him to believe that the Jews should have a homeland and went about lobbying for one with all the governments in Europe at the time.

After meeting with governments throughout Europe, the Soviet Union and the Ottoman Empire, he received, through L. J. Greenberg, an offer (Aug., 1903) on the part of the British government to facilitate a large Jewish settlement, with autonomous government and under British suzerainty, in British East Africa. He brought the British offer, commonly known as the "Uganda Project," before the Sixth Zionist Congress (Basel, August 1903), carrying the majority (295:178, 98 abstentions) with him on the question of investigating this offer, after the Russian delegation stormed out.

In 1905 after investigation the Congress decided to decline the British offer and firmly committed itself to a Jewish home land in the historic Land of Israel. SO THE ORIGINAL HOMELAND VOTED ON AND PASSED WAS FOR UGANDA. The rejection was caused by several caveats brought about by the British Government that Jerusalem remain and international city, all citizens where to be able to move about freely and practice their religions unimpeded, and live in freedom.

CAN ISRAEL TRULY BE CALLED A DEMOCRACY? NO!

The USA is supplying 3.2 BILLION DOLLARS in MILITARY AID to Israel and yet, ISRAEL doesn't apparently need it, as they are selling some of this highly technological weapons of warfare to China. We have Censured them and yet continue to fund their "rogue nation" status; who else are they selling arms too?

We know they have nuclear weapons but do not force them to sign the NUCLEAR NON-PROLIFERATION TREATY, why?

We tippy toe around Zionism and have no problem taking out our WMD's (Cluster Bombs, long-range Missles, Special Ops, etc.) out on Iraq for 7 UN Sanctions (Israel has over 100), looking the other way when anti-democratic actions are taken in a "false democracy" (i.e. 30 foot dividing walls; lack of access to health care, identification cards for arabs, etc).

And worst of all, "blindly seeing" violations of national sovereignty by the bombing of Lebanon and Syria.

Oh, WAIT?! Is that the BUSH DOCTRINE? Does that make it Okay?

I mainly witnessed this bullshit on a special report on ABC; why don't a bunch of us forward this article to them (and other networks) and ask how long they're going tdo keep trumpeting the same lies that this administration gave us before starting the Iraq War-fiasco?

Fiona hit the nail on the head calling Cheney a monster. What else would you call a low-life scumbag sociopath who intentionally initiates a war so he can steal millions of dollars through graft, bribery, and collusion with his corporate buddies. He revels in the deaths of U.S. soldiers because it justifies his unleashing his propaganda machine to spread misinformation to the public in order to keep the war going at any cost. Cheney's only interest in the Middle-East is how much more money can he and his White House Mafia steal from America before they are forced to stop the war? This is what happens when the most ignorant, easily confused voters in the country band together to elect two men with criminal personalities and sociopathic personality disorders to run a nation. If God is still out there and not too disgusted with what we have become, we should ask him for his help to return this nation to sanity and reverse the destruction done by the "Evil Empire!"

Reuters: "UN officials said the press release had been based on a simultaneous English interpretation of the diplomat's comments in Arabic, and that the interpreter had made an error."

An error. Can't have anything to do with an antique communications system in a 57-year-old dinosaur building referred to as a "soft target" by Dick's Fourth Branch.

Set the way-back machine for 2003 and the UN's authorization-to-invade-Iraq vote...

Spy, Dick, spy. Spy, spy, spy!

I have a problem understanding what is the net gain of the new world order to completely gut out the industrial base of the U.S.

I would suggest that we are about finished as a world power. If we find ourselves mired in a conflict in Iran, which we cannot possibly win, not only will be be finished economically, but also militarialy. If the unthinkable happens and crude oil hits $120.00 or more, transportation will shut down, grocery stores will empty and all hell breaks loose..

Doesn't it seem rather convenient that all the media election talk got off to such an early start? Was it perhaps to frame the national discussion as soon as possible? Seems that the powers-that-be sniffed change in the air, decided to act quickly to push their preferred candidates to the front of the race before real progressives like Kucinich could get a word in. More false choices between "them" and "them" instead of us and them. They learned from Perot and that they should never give another spoiler any attention EVER again, because said powers-that-be are scared shitless of any third-party candidate sauntering in and throwing off their numbers. So they try to scare those of us who may want to vote third-party into toeing the party line by raising the spectre of a divided progressive vote and telling us we'll lose everything to the party NONE of us wants to see gain any more ground. That's why they cried so hard about Nader, and nobody with careers on the line wanted to see him step on their shoes.

Personally I'm growing quite annoyed with constantly being told that I have to hold my nose and vote for someone I don't think is going to truly represent me just to keep the even worse guy out of office. And since there's a kernel of truth to the possible consequences of voting third-party, I find myself often saying (as I did just the other day on another Alternet forum) that I may just HAVE to hold my nose and "do the dirty."

But what this concept does (by design) is attempt to ignore the sleeping giant of the internet that could get a grassroots movement behind the candidate who WILL represent progressives. But first, we as progressives have to stop accepting false choices. We have to start demanding the candidate we want instead of allowing them to tell us what candidate we shall have. And alternative media, such as Alternet, need to start giving those true progressives some headline exposure. Often. And even more often.

How about it, Alternet?

But in reality, it was Richard Armitage of the State Dept.

Wishful thinking doesn't make it so.

Like the last GOP debate the candidates invoked the name Clinton more than they did Reagan. Go figure..
