George W. Bush is a Torturer
President Bush said Saturday he vetoed legislation that would ban the CIA from using harsh interrogation methods such as water boarding to break suspected terrorists because it would end practices that have prevented attacks.
WATER BOARDING IS TORTURE.
WATER BOARDING IS INHUMANE.
TORTURE IS NOT AN EFFECTIVE METHOD OF INTELLIGENCE GATHERING.
America under George W. Bush Junior aka The Dry Drunk Emperor, has become a hollow shell of its former self. War criminals and murderers, criminals, perjurers and fraud artists usually rise to the top of the pile in American politics, but never before have their crimes and treachery been so brazen. How sad that things could have fallen into such a state in only eight short years. How sad that Americans continue to sleep while their government destroys the foundations and fabric of future generations.
SHAME ON YOU GEORGE W. BUSH. SHAME ON THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND THE U.S SENATE FOR LETTING THIS MODERN VERSION OF NERO FIDDLE WHILE ROME BURNS.

Bush Endorsement MAY????? be risky for McCain????
From the article:
"Beware, John McCain. The money comes with a price. Sure,President Bush will raise millions of dollars for your Republican presidential campaign and GOP candidates. But he'll also give you the aura of a presidency tarnished by painful gasoline prices, a sagging economy, the threat of recession, a blemished U.S. reputation around the world, turbulence in the Middle East and many more problems."
Somebody beam me off this alien world. George W. Bush, who has presided over the greatest number of failures, epoch disasters and destruction of civil liberties in American history, MAY harm McInsane's journey to the White House?
In a sane world, George W. Bush would be peeling potatoes in Leavenworth prison, and John McCain would be a used appliance salesman as his intellect matches. In a sane world, a Shrub endorsement would be the kiss of death.
But instead, here we have the media, pondering if this well hurt or help the candidate?
Insanity.
Taking the weekend off to recharge the batteries and do some traveling- (hopefully). Will be back on Monday.

Gaza
Canadians, please email the Prime Minister, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the leader of the Liberal Party and the leader of the NDP and tell them to stand up and say to Israel "ENOUGH!". Tell them in no uncertain terms that you will no longer vote for any politician or party that stands by while this atrocity takes place.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper: harper.s@parl.gc.ca
Minister of Foreign Affairs Maxime Bernier: bernim@parl.gc.ca
Leader of the Opposition Stephane Dion: dion.s@parl.gc.ca
Leader of the New Democractic Party Jack Layton: layton.j@parl.gc.ca
Reply from Jack Layton recieved today:
Thank you for your previous email informing me of your concerns surrounding the on-going conflict in Gaza.
Notwithstanding every nation’s right to self-defence, we feel that the Israeli government's response is disproportionate, and the use of rockets against Israeli civilians must be rejected. New Democrats condemn the massive loss of civilian life that is resulting from this escalation.
Israelis and Palestinians want a negotiated resolution. New Democrats are encouraged by the results of a public opinion research published in the Israeli daily newspaper Ha’aretz indicating that a significant majority of Israelis want their government to negotiate a ceasefire with Hamas.
The NDP is urging the Canadian government to work with the world community to call for an immediate ceasefire. We urge the Palestinian leadership to resolve their differences to enhance the prospect of a peaceful resolution. We also urge the government of Israel to cease its blockade of Gaza since, during the present state of escalated violence, the blockade is pushing the civilian health system of Gaza to the brink of collapse, and is running the risk of contravening the prohibition against “collective punishment”.
Again, I appreciate hearing from you on this troubling situation. All the best.
Sincerely,
Jack Layton, MP (Toronto-Danforth)
Leader, Canada’s New Democrats
What will it take for the New Democratic Party to actually condemn this one sided attack in which over 100 Palestinians have been killed, a third of them children? Apparently 100 Palestinian lives are equal to the lives of 1 or 2 Israelis. Disproportion is an understatement Mr.Layton. This is murder on a mass scale.
What would the reaction be if the opposite were true? We would hear worldwide condemnation of the "terror attacks" upon the Israelis, not politicizing and wishy-washy fence sitting. Why then, when Israel launches what is basically a terror attack upon a civilian population, will you, and the NDP Party not stand up and say it is wrong, without attempting to make it seem as though the violence is even handed on both sides? As though Hamas has attacked Tel Aviv with jets and attack helicopters, or Palestinians are rumbling through Netanya in armoured tanks?

Why the Silence from our Politicians on the Israeli Terror in Gaza?
My email to:
Maxime Bernier: Minister of Foreign Affairs
Stephen Harper: Prime Minister of Canada
Stephane Dion: Leader of the Opposition
Jack Layton: Leader of the New Democratic Party
Peggy Nash: My Member of Parliament
How long is the Canadian government going to remain silently assenting the Israeli invasion, siege and massacre of the Gaza Strip? Why does the Canadian government and most of the Members and Leaders of Parliament continue to be either silent or pretend that Israel is somehow justified in its actions? Why are the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Prime Minister of this country so cowardly and afraid of the various pro-Israel lobbies that they cannot even speak their conscious on this issue? Where is your backbone, sirs? This is a massacre, ladies and gentlemen. We know the story from the Israeli perspective-they are fighting 'terror' and 'defending themselves'. When the kill ratio is 50 or 75 to 1 how can this possibly be classified as self defense? They are creating infinitely much more terror than they are stopping. How many more innocent babies have to die in their cribs and how many more Gazan Palestinian families have to suffer from Israeli terror before the Canadian government will issue a statement condemning, once again, for the umpteenth time, a vicious and extremely heavy handed attack on a civilian population?

Genocide in Gaza
The Israeli Terrorist Force:
"What is happening in Gaza is a massacre of civilians, women and children, a collective killing, genocide," Qureia added. "We can't bear what the Israelis are doing, and what the Israelis are doing doesn't led the peace process any credibility."
Israeli-Palestinian clashes kill 45
41 Palestians die, over half civilians. 2 Israeli soldiers die. Sounds like war crimes to me.
Israeli-Palestinian fighting escalated sharply Saturday, leaving 33 Palestinians dead, including a 13-month-old girl.
"There is a huge gap between us (Jews) and our enemies – not just in ability but in morality, culture, sanctity of life, and conscience. They are our neighbors here, but it seems as if at a distance of a few hundred meters away, there are people who do not belong to our continent, to our world, but actually belong to a different galaxy." (Israeli president Moshe Katsav. The Jerusalem Post, May 10, 2001)
"When we have settled the land, all the Arabs will be able to do about it will be to scurry around like drugged cockroaches in a bottle." (Raphael Eitan, Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defence Forces, New York Times, 14 April 1983)
They hate us because we are free.
