MORE TO SAY
THE MESS
LIIBBYS BIG DAY
Today Judge Reggie Walton will sentence I. Lewis Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, to anywhere from probation to 25 years in federal prison for perjury, obstruction of justice, and making false statements to federal investigators. Almost certainly Libby will receive no more than three years behind bars, since that's all the prosecution has requested.
So it's from 0 to 3. Will he say he's sorry? If he does I'm betting 0.
IRAQ: THE GOOD NEWS GOES UNREPORTED
I saw the following in the Letters to the Editor in this past Sundays Kitsap Sun. I don't know how many times I've seen this letter or simalur ones that keep saying this nonse over and over as though there is some GREAT MEDIA CONSPERCY.
When you hear that 15 plus U. S. Toops where killed just since June 1st it's just to damn hard to see any of the good.
This type of letter makes me get out my pen and do my own Letter to the Editor. Mine follows S. W.'s.
I get so tired - and infuriated - at the biased news reporting in print, on radio and in the TV news. They tell us nothing but how many soldiers were killed by George Bush on that particular day. That screed is usually followed up by a shot of the latest anti-American protests and where the next one will be held. It seems they are okay with torture too, so long as al-Qaida does the torturing. I wonder if the worst thing these poor souls experienced was having panties put on their heads or having dogs bark at them while naked? I doubt it. The Democrats are trying real hard to manufacture a loss in Iraq ... all for politics. There is a huge amount of evidence that the surge is working but it, too, is not being reported. We've got al-Qaida on the run in Iraq and we're winning over the sheiks. It's too bad the American public doesn't hear about it. S. W. HANSVILLE
THAT BECAUSE THERE ISN'T ANY
In Sundays Sun it seems S. W. is unhappy with how things are going in Iraq. He claims no good news is being reported out of Iraq.
First of all I'd suggest he start watching more FOX NOISE they don't seem to think there is anything worth reporting on in Iraq. To bad for FOX there isn't a Baghdad version of Anna Nicole Smith so they would have something to report.
If your ok with torture there's nothing I can say that will change your mind. You need to talk to John McCain.
Stewart doesn't get it especially when he uses the tag line of "manufacture a loss in Iraq". What is it that he doesn't understand about a CIVIL WAR. It's out of our hands.
Are you just MAKING this stuff up, you don't really believe that the surge is working and that we've got al-Qaeda on the run do you?
I don't know how to explain this to you but if your house burned to the ground telling your family that the good news is that the lawnmower you forgot to put in the garage is just fine. Doesn't seem to be that important in the bigger picture does it.
NO COMMENT
The federal investigation into a bribery scheme centering on one of Alaska's biggest oil services companies has crossed paths with Senator Ted Stevens (R-AK). And Stevens' problems seem to come down to some highly creative methods Stevens used to remodel his Alaska home.
According to contractor Augie Paone, it all started when a group of unnamed "friends" got together to renovate the senator's house as a weekend project. The group of friends ended up being unable to pull it off. But in the group's defense, the job was pretty ambitious. The plan was to ratchet the one-story house off its foundation, build a new first floor and then place the old first floor on top of the new first floor. Unfortunately for the do-it-yourselfers, they ran into a few problems.
That's when the local contractor, Paone, came into the picture. Paone has provided most of the sordid details in this story, since none of the other players are talking. According to Paone, it wasn't Stevens who sought him out to fix the mangled construction, but oil company Veco Corp. It's not clear how involved Veco had been in the do-it-yourself phase of the remodeling. But Paone says Veco was in charge when he came on board. Veco hired Paone and and collected and reviewed the $100,000 worth of invoices he submitted as the project progressed. Paone would then receive payments signed by Stevens -- checks which according to Paone appeared to come from a special account created for the renovation.
So far Stevens has refused to explain the arrangement. But it has piqued the FBI's interest and investigators are looking into it. Paone says the FBI interviewed him about six months ago and that he testified before a grand jury in December.
In response to questions about the remodeling, Stevens' spokesman sent me a statement saying the senator is not commenting.
HOW STUPID CAN YOU GET
Representative William Jefferson, Democrat of Louisiana, was indicted yesterday on federal charges of racketeering, money-laundering, and soliciting more than $400,000 in bribes in connection with years of trying to broker business deals in Africa.
The charges came almost two years after investigators raided Jefferson's home in Washington and found $90,000 stuffed in a box in his freezer.
The indictment in federal court in Alexandria, Va., lists 16 alleged violations. Jefferson is charged with racketeering, soliciting bribes, wire fraud, money laundering, obstruction of justice, and conspiracy.
By the way FOX is trying to make this arrest out to be a really, really big deal but the truth is this is the first and only dem that has been charged with corruption.
