That's Gotta Sting

When members of the elected federal ruling class interfere on the exercise of free enterprise; such as Leahy, Specter and Kerry did with respect to the free or not for free airing of this weekend's NFL football game featuring the 12 & 0 New England Patriots, there is a serious question of not only breech of protocol, but an act of senatorial misconduct. It is up to the marketplace to decide what entertainment programming is to be broadcast and not for the House and Senate to strong-arm the networks into doing their bidding. First they force the networks to broadcast in hi-def, then they outlaw incandescent light bulbs, and now they threaten the NFL in order to appease their constituents demands for a ball game. Our liberty is being eroded one good deed at a time.

TPPF COMMENTARY: Washington’s Answer To Energy Problems Doesn’t Add Up

The label of a “Do Nothing” Congress might well serve as a badge of honor, given the misguided national energy bills now being debated.

Despite being described by proponents as “energy” bills, these proposals would neither produce more energy nor make energy more affordable. Instead of workable solutions to meet today’s energy needs and provide an economically viable roadmap for the future, the collage of ill-conceived legislative provisions is based more on political expediency.

The bills will wreak further havoc on the nation’s energy challenges, denting both the national economy and the pocketbooks of Texans. The energy bill just passed by the House will harm both our nation’s reliable energy supply and our national economy.

Both chambers have set their sights on so-called “price gouging” – the Senate as part of its energy bill, the House in stand-alone legislation. While seemingly noble in their intent, the proposals would effectively impose price controls, raising gas prices for consumers and limiting the availability of fuel for American families and businesses. Apparently, many in Congress have forgotten our disastrous 1970s experiment with these. Rather than punish energy providers through additional taxes and regulations, Congress should promote increases in America’s refining capacity.

The legislation imposes government mandates requiring massive increases in the use of renewable fuels, such as corn-based ethanol. Besides raising costs for livestock feed, the price of corn adversely affects consumers through higher prices for meat, dairy products, and other dietary staples. The House bill requires a five-fold increase in biofuels production – to 36 billion gallons of biofuels per year – by 2022.

Now that speculators have sped up production due to new mandates and federal subsidies, we have a glut of ethanol in the Midwest, because it must be shipped and stored separately from other fuels. Requiring consumers to use enormous amounts of subsidized ethanol does not make practical, fiscal, or environmental sense.

Pending mandates on utilities will require use of a certain percentage of renewable energy sources for electricity. The House bill requires electric utility companies to obtain at least 15 percent of their power generation from renewable fuel sources. Renewable energy holds great promise and will clearly be part of our nation’s future energy portfolio, but forcing the adoption of alternative energy upon consumers comes with great economic risk, namely in the form of higher utility bills.

Until these important segments of the industry mature, consumers have relatively affordable and convenient access to energy sources that should not be disrupted. Consumers should not pay a forced premium because promising technologies have yet to fulfill their promise.

The House bill also includes a 10-year, $21 billion tax increase; requires fuel economy be increased to an industry average of 35 miles per gallon by 2020; calls for phasing out the incandescent light bulb; and mandates increased standards for appliance efficiency.

What is not in the bills, however, is even more concerning. There no additional provisions to increase U.S. energy production and capacity, and the bills remove existing incentives and add regulatory obstacles to increasing needed supply – the key factor guiding today’s energy prices.

A reliable supply of energy will become increasingly critical for Texas. In 2005, Texas’ population was 23 million. That number is projected to increase to 28 million by 2020 and 35 million by 2040. At these growth rates, Texas’ electricity demand will increase 20 percent by 2015 and 43 percent by 2025. Meeting the 2025 demand will require Texas to add 50 to 100 new, large power plants, according to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas.

Additionally, while everyone speaks about the benefits of renewable energy, wind, solar, and other renewable technologies are not yet able to generate the enormous amounts of electricity needed in our communities. Only coal in the near term – and nuclear a little farther off – can provide sufficient power. Emissions from coal-fired plants continue to decline, while nuclear is a safe, proven, near zero-emission source of reliable energy.

Policies that allow the market system to increase capacity, production, and supply are the key to sound energy policy. Sadly, today’s political formula – noble goals plus special interests plus unintended economic consequences equals ineffective legislation – simply doesn’t add up for consumers.

First Listen: Texas PolicyCast for 12/13/07

The latest edition of Texas PolicyCast is now available for preview on the TPPF website (www.TexasPolicy.com).

Last month, many Texas cable customers accustomed to seeing their Dallas Cowboys play couldn't see the game against the Green Bay Packers due to an ongoing dispute between the National Football League and several major cable providers over carriage of the NFL Network. As the two sides remain deadlocked at the negotiating table, they have pressed their cases through vigorous and expensive public relations campaigns.

And with this week's Houston Texans game and next week's Dallas game also affected by this dispute, the Texas Legislature is getting involved. On Monday, the House Regulated Industries Committee held a public hearing on this issue. Bill Peacock, Director of the Foundation's Center for Economic Freedom, testified at the hearing, and you can find both his testimony and his latest commentary on the Foundation's website.

Poor Little Democrats Can't Destroy Our Nation Because of Republicans

Those mean old Republicans, they won't let us undermine our troops, our foreign, policy or our economy! Waah, waah, waah! Democrats are such traitorous, spineless, whiney, wimps.

Is this a news report or an editorial...oh yea, I forgot it's in Reuters, there's no difference:

Congress has been stymied by Bush, Republicans

By Richard Cowan and Thomas Ferraro
37 minutes ago

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush wants it known the U.S. Congress has been asleep at the switch since Democrats took over in January. The only problem is that he and his fellow Republicans have flipped off the switch at nearly every turn, Democrats say.

"The end of 2007 is approaching fast and the new Congress has little to show for it," Bush told reporters in the White House Rose Garden last week.

Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, the Republican leader in the House of Representatives, was even less generous. "Nothing has been accomplished all year," he said.

As they excoriate political opponents, Bush and his fellow Republicans in Congress have successfully stopped most major Democratic initiatives this year.

You know if Democrats weren't trying to destroy this nation with every bill they try to pass, maybe there would be some bi-partisanship (not that I think bi-partisanship is very important or desirable), but when your avarice for political power is a higher priority than the safety of our nation, or the strength of our economy; when your devotion to your party is greater than your devotion to the Constitution or your country, you can't very well complain that your corrupted agenda is being stymied.

I applaud the strength of character of the majority of Republicans have shown in hindering the surrender at all costs Democrats.

Look at this drek Reuters is trying to pass off as journalism:

Democrats quickly fulfilled many of their 2006 campaign promises, raising the minimum wage for the first time in a decade, implementing stalled recommendations of the commission that investigated the September 11 attacks and trying to stop ethics abuses that plagued Congress during years of Republican leadership.

Republicans blocked many other measures.

A top domestic priority -- reforming U.S. immigration law -- was buried by conservative Republicans in the House. On foreign affairs, Republicans killed repeated moves to bring combat in Iraq to an end, despite Americans' disenchantment with a war now in its fifth year. Anti-war feeling was a driving factor behind the Democrats' success in last year's elections.

Popular legislation to expand stem cell research to help cure diseases such as Parkinson's was vetoed by Bush, as was a bill to deliver health care to more children from low-income families.

More recently, the House passed an energy bill that would improve automobile fuel efficiency for the first time in 32 years but Senate Republicans, heeding a White House veto threat, stopped it.

If that isn't an editorial opinion then nothing is.

This article exemplifies the problem with the Paleo-media and why it is dying a slow death. So-called journalist no longer know the difference between reporting (journalism) and expressing an opinion (editorializing). That is also why Liberals so rabidly attack Fox News, they don't have any comprehension of the difference between shows intended to express opinions, like Bill O'Reilly or Hannity and Colmes, as opposed to hard news reporting.

One thing for sure, Democrats have accomplished less this year than just about any Congress in history. Given their surrender at all costs and socialist policies, I am glad Republicans have been successful in stopping their agenda.

Down with Democrat ambitions!

Long Live Our American Republic!!!

TPPF COMMENTARY: Football Follies 2007

The dispute between the National Football League and major cable providers over the NFL Network shows no sign of abating. Both sides continue to wage expensive public relations campaigns on why the other is to blame for Texas football fans' inability to see games featuring their favorite teams, including Thursday's Houston/Denver game and next Saturday's Dallas/Carolina contest.

Unfortunately, a growing number of politicians are seeking government intervention in the dispute. This afternoon, the House Regulated Industries Committee will conduct a hearing "regarding the availability of NFL games on cable networks."

In this week's commentary, Bill Peacock, Director of the Foundation's Center for Economic Freedom, shows how the marketplace provided a solution for last month's Dallas/Green Bay game and why government should stay out of this business negotiation.

Football Follies 2007

Consumers Can Pick Their Own Winners

By Bill Peacock

The “Football Follies” series of films contains classic highlights of players bumbling, stumbling, and fumbling their way across the gridiron. While highly entertaining – such as ex-Minnesota Viking Jim Marshall’s fumble recovery and ensuing 65 yard run to the wrong end zone – they also provide excellent examples of how not to play football.

Recent government forays into consumer regulation provide similar examples of how not to intervene in markets.

Take, for example, the public relations war surrounding the NFL Network. Last week’s game between the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers featured two 10-1 teams, with the winner becoming the frontrunner to reach the Super Bowl. But many fans used to seeing such contests couldn’t watch it.

Last year, the National Football League opted to move some of its games off of broadcast TV and onto its NFL Network, available only on cable and satellite services.

From the network’s inception, the NFL has prodded cable providers to include it on their basic tier of channels, as the two main satellite companies have done. But the major cable providers objected to the hefty price the NFL is seeking. They’ll carry it, they say, but only on the sports tier, which entails an additional expense and thus reaches far fewer viewers.

This has all the elements of a classic battle between marketplace titans – including the unfortunate attempt by one party to get government intervention on its side.

Such behavior is known as rent seeking, where businesses attempt to gain through government what they can’t win through market competition.

The NFL, probably the most muscular of all sports leagues, is no stranger to competition. But rather than battle it out on the field, the league has turned to the Federal Communications Commission and the Texas Legislature in order to force the cable industry’s hand.

This is not surprising, since the FCC has made it its business recently to involve itself in such matters. It is currently considering prohibiting providers from “tying” programming and instead forcing them to offer channels a la carte, and just last week began the process of regulating the market share of cable companies.

The FCC, though, has no monopoly on overreach. Earlier this year, the Texas Legislature came dangerously close to re-regulating Texas’ world-class electricity market – failing to do so only because of a technicality. Government regulators routinely interfere with insurance market transactions. And a Texas legislative committee held hearings earlier this week on the NFL Network dispute.

Regulators simply cannot deal with such issues better than the marketplace, where billions of consumers negotiate with millions of suppliers every day to reach optimal solutions.

The response of consumers to the NFL Network problem shows the superiority of market-based solutions.

Many fans watched the game with other friends who had satellite service. One such satellite customer in East Austin opened up his yard to all comers with a big-screen TV and free food. Others actually switched their television service to a different provider that carried the NFL Network.

Probably the most common response by fans was to watch the game in sports bars, which reported huge crowds and revenues that night.

Let’s not forget this is all about money. Sellers want to maximize revenues, consumers want to minimize costs.

Rather than taking money from one pocket and putting it into another, regulators ought to remember that fans are quite capable of taking care of themselves when it comes to figuring out the best way to watch a football game, or to buy electricity or insurance. It is folly to think otherwise.

Pelosi, Harmon, Graham, and Rockerfeller All Briefed Fully on "Enhanced Interrogation Techniques" in 2002

File this under the "See, I told you so," category.

The Washington Post, hardly a bastion of Conservative thought, has confirmed that Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Jane Harman (D-CA), Bob Graham (D-FL Ret.), and J.D. Rockefeller IV (D-WV), were all fully briefed on the enhanced interrogation techniques, including films of water-boarding, for over an hour by the CIA and not only did they not object, but they were enthusiastic over the successes and techniques being used.

Hill Briefed on Waterboarding in 2002
In Meetings, Spy Panels' Chiefs Did Not Protest, Officials Say

By Joby Warrick and Dan Eggen
Washington Post Staff Writers
Sunday, December 9, 2007; Page A01

In September 2002, four members of Congress met in secret for a first look at a unique CIA program designed to wring vital information from reticent terrorism suspects in U.S. custody. For more than an hour, the bipartisan group, which included current House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), was given a virtual tour of the CIA's overseas detention sites and the harsh techniques interrogators had devised to try to make their prisoners talk.

Among the techniques described, said two officials present, was waterboarding, a practice that years later would be condemned as torture by Democrats and some Republicans on Capitol Hill. But on that day, no objections were raised. Instead, at least two lawmakers in the room asked the CIA to push harder, two U.S. officials said.

"The briefer was specifically asked if the methods were tough enough," said a U.S. official who witnessed the exchange.

Congressional leaders from both parties would later seize on waterboarding as a symbol of the worst excesses of the Bush administration's counterterrorism effort. The CIA last week admitted that videotape of an interrogation of one of the waterboarded detainees was destroyed in 2005 against the advice of Justice Department and White House officials, provoking allegations that its actions were illegal and the destruction was a coverup.

Yet long before "waterboarding" entered the public discourse, the CIA gave key legislative overseers about 30 private briefings, some of which included descriptions of that technique and other harsh interrogation methods, according to interviews with multiple U.S. officials with firsthand knowledge. [Emphasis added]

So, what's with all of this outrage by "Pig Eyes" Durbin and Harry Reid? Why all of the sudden has it become necessary for the Attorney General's office to appoint another special prosecutor?
The even larger question is why are the Liberals so outraged at the idea of the CIA destroying interrogation tapes to protect the identities of CIA operatives, yet so indignant at the so-called "outing" of Valerie Plame? Could there be more than a little hypocrisy at work here? Even worse, could the Democrats, once more, be playing political games with our national security?

The Post quotes Porter Goss, the then Director of the CIA as saying:

"Among those being briefed, there was a pretty full understanding of what the CIA was doing and the reaction in the room was not just approval, but encouragement."[Emphasis added]

The Post quotes an unidentified "official present at the briefings" as saying:

"In fairness, the environment was different then because we were closer to Sept. 11 and people were still in a panic, but there was no objecting, no hand-wringing. The attitude was, 'We don't care what you do to those guys as long as you get the information you need to protect the American people.'"[Emphasis added]

In fact, it was not until the leaks about waterboarding were disclosed in the press that members of Congress began to whine about human rights abuses and "torture." But the CIA had already abandoned waterboarding by 2005, so we now know that all of this whining and gnashing of teeth over our inhumane treatment of prisoners by Pig Eyes and the other sanctimonious Democrats has all been political posturing...just as I said before.

The real reason for all of this outrage, is camouflage to divert the public's attention away from the fact that the Democrats are about to cave in on the troop funding requests by the President. The Democrat Controlled Congress is going to approve $Billions more in funding without any of the restrictions they claimed they would demand before they funded the troops again.

Not only are Democrats and Liberals gutless in conducting a war, but they are also gutless in standing up for their own principles (mostly because they have no core principles beyond the desire for power).

Long Live Our American Republic!!!

Latest News Not Good News for Joe Horn: Pasadena Police Report Crooks Shot in Back

Well, I'll be the first to admit it, there is always a hazard associated with a law like the castle doctrine and the this may turn out to be one of those cases in which a man allowed himself to get too agitated and crossed the boundaries between a righteous killing and and a panic killing.

The Pasadena Police have now revealed that the two men shot by Joe Horn of Pasadena, Texas, were shot in the back, not the front as first reported. They also report that they had an undercover policeman on the scene a few seconds before the shootings occurred. A witness who saw the entire shooting. Here is the Houston Chronicle's report:

Dec. 8, 2007, 10:05AM
Pasadena police say Horn shot 2 men in the back
Both men were hit by shotgun blasts after entering Joe Horn's front yard

By CINDY HORSWELL and ROBERT STANTON
Copyright 2007 Houston Chronicle

The two burglary suspects killed by Pasadena homeowner Joe Horn were shot in the back after they ventured into his front yard, police disclosed Friday.

In another twist, investigators revealed that a plainclothes Pasadena detective witnessed the Nov. 14 shootings after he pulled up in an unmarked car seconds before Horn fired three shots from his 12-gauge shotgun.

The men, who had just burglarized Horn's neighbor's house, faced him from seven to 10 feet away when they ignored his order to "not move"or they would be dead, police said.

The controversial shootings have outraged minority activists but also brought an outpouring of support for Horn.

"We now have a summary documenting what we think happened," said Capt. A.H. "Bud" Corbett. "We will turn it over to the district attorney in a couple of weeks after we do an extensive review for quality control."

I really hate to hear this, but it maybe that this shooting while not a case of premeditation, could easily wind up being a case of 2nd degree murder or manslaughter. This only makes the tragedy worse.

No one supports the rights of American citizens to protect themselves and their property, or even their neighbor's property more than I, but if the suspects were actually leaving the scene, whether or not Joe Horn felt threatened by their presence becomes somewhat less relevant. It is difficult to justify shooting a man in the back. Even the police face severe difficulties if they make the decision to shoot a fleeing criminal in the back.

Certainly the failure even to fire a warning shot after his challenge for them to stop, bespeaks of a little too much adrenaline pumping and a little too much zeal in pulling the trigger. I am specifically addressing the legal aspects of this case, not the moral implications.

I really don't have too much of a problem with the idea of shooting criminals caught in the act of committing a crime against property. Especially I don't have a problem in a case in which the criminals were observed smashing windows and glass bricks to gain entry to their target house. These guys were not just some starving people looking for a little food, they were apparently part of a criminal gang who have been specifically targeting the homes of legal aliens.

They were illegals who had no business being in America, no business being in Houston, and sure as hell had no business being in that neighborhood, so I say, "Tough luck, bad timing guys. You probably got what you deserved."

However, in the eyes of the law, we have just entered an area in which the lines have now become fuzzy. There was a policeman on the scene, who witnessed the entire shooting and chose not to arrest Joe Horn. That at least to some degree indicates that he believed the shooting were within the bounds of his understanding of the law. That's the good news.

The bad news is that the law, in general, takes a dim view of shooting someone in the back as it indicates they were not a "direct and immediate threat," and especially when the shooting occurs in broad daylight.

So I find myself in a bit of a quandry with this shooting. I do not believe that any good will come from punishing Joe Horn, as he will have to live with what he has done for the rest of his life. I sympathize with his emotions and motives. I sympathize with his feelings of outrage and utter frustration at witnessing a crime being committed right in front of his eyes and feeling powerless to prevent it.

I also sympathize with the frustration he must have felt to have been on the phone talking to the operator about the crime and not seeing or hearing any response by the police and knowing that on average, the police rarely arrive in time to catch crooks like these in the act. The Chronical reports that:

Corbett believes neither Horn nor the men knew a police officer was present.

"It was over within seconds. The detective never had time to say anything before the shots were fired," Corbett said. "At first, the officer was assessing the situation. Then he was worried Horn might mistake him for the 'wheel man' (get-away driver). He ducked at one point."

When Horn confronted the suspects in his yard, he raised his shotgun to his shoulder, Corbett said. However the men ignored his order to freeze.

Corbett said one man ran toward Horn, but had angled away from him toward the street when he was shot in the back just before reaching the curb.

"The detective confirmed that this suspect was actually closer to Horn after he initiated his run than at the time when first confronted," said Corbett. "Horn said he felt in jeopardy."

That all being said, I also do not support unwarranted killings. I do not believe that such actions promote the rights of citizens who do use their firearms our laws inform us we may.

As I stated in my very first post on this, every citizen in America has the right to make a "citizen's arrest" if they are witnessing a crime in progress and are properly situated physically and emotionally to intervene. That right has been upheld numerous times in our justice system. I also just as clearly stated that any such decision made by a citizen would have to stand the test of our legal system.

You may intervene, but you must be willing to face the consequences of your actions. I am certain that Mr. Horn understands this as he readily surrendered to the police and he has already expressed his regrets for what he did, though I'm sure he acted in what he felt was a justified manner. It will now be up to the legal system to determine if Joe Horn's actions were justified, reasonable, and legal.

My sympathies lie with Joe Horn, mainly because I believe we have travelled too far down the road of our justice system being more concerned with the rights of the criminal than they are with the rights of the victime of crimes. I fear that any decision other than a "No Bill" from the grand jury will be one more step down that road, one more moment's hesitation in a homeowner's decision to fire to protect his family and his property when the law is clearly on his side.

I do not like the fact that these two criminals were shot in the back, and Joe Horn may have to pay a high price for his actions, but the facts remain that:

1. If these two criminals had not entered this country illegally...
2. If these two criminals not not been intentionally targeting the most vulnerable of our new citizens...
3. If these two men had not been engaged in a crime...
4. If these two men had not been in the wrong place at the wrong time doing the wrong thing.

None of this would have happened.

While I do not agree with shooting two men in the back, I also do not believe that we are being properly served by our government, either local or national. I do not believe that the state or federal authorities should have any jurisdiction or say so in this case and I do not back down from my accusations against Black Racist Quanell X. He is an agitator who was expelled from the Nation of Islam for his violent racist proclamations and his organization, the self named "New Black Panthers" has been disavowed and denounced by the founders of the original Black Panthers.

He has brought race into a case which revolves completely around criminal behavior and is now calling for outside interference. As the Houston Chronicle reports:

Civil rights activist Quanell X said he would step up the call for a murder indictment against Horn, and questioned whether the Pasadena police should investigate the case.

Quanell X said the shooting should be handled instead by the Texas Rangers and the FBI.

"I don't trust the Pasadena Police Department," he said. "Why are they just now releasing the fact that an undercover officer witnessed the whole thing? This case stinks."

Actually Quanell, it is you who stinks. You and your whole opportunistic, lying, race-baiting organization "stink." It is the social vampires like you, those who live off of the fear and anger of others, primarily by stirring up those sentiments who are the scum that gums up the gears of our society.

You thrive off of racial discord. You make your career out of stirring up racial discord. You offer your fellow African Americans no solutions, only hatred and bitterness. It is unfortunate that people like you are given as much press as you receive.

God Bless Joe Horn. I don't know what his fate will be, but my sympathies remain with him even if my rational mind knows that his actions were overly zealous and narrowly justifiable if at all.

I guess we will have to wait to see what the grand jury determines.

Long Live Our American Republic!!!

CIA Destroys Tapes, Informed Democrats Develop Amnesia. "Deja Vu, All Over Again?"

I'm sorry, haven't we been here before?

Last time it was the New York Lies Times revealing classified information about the warrantless wire-tapping of phone calls from suspected terrorists overseas into the United States.

Remember the outrage, the indignation of the Democrat Liberal idiots in Congress, the hystrionics of Dick "Pig Eyes" Durbin, and Jay "Richest Man in Congress" Rockefeller IV (D-WV), the ranking Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee and Jane Harman (D-CA) the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee.

We then found out that both Rockefeller and Harman had been advised of the program four years before they began to complain about it. In addition, we found that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), former Sen. Tom Daschle (D-SD), Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), and Sen. Bob Graham (D-FL), had all been advised of the program at the same time.

All of these six had been informed of the NSA Warrantless Wiretapping four years before the story was leaked by the Lies Times, yet mysteriously none of them did anything to stop it until it became public. Then, suddenly, they were "Shocked, shocked I tell you," to discover that the NSA program was being conducted.

It was only later, once the facts became known, that they began to claim that although they had been informed, they had "expressed concern" over the program, or they had "not realized the extent of the program," or some other BS story intended to cover their collective tails with their Liberal idiot constituencies.

Liberal idiots, caught in their deceptions for all to witness who were willing.

At the time, Victoria Toensing, co-author of the FISA Bill, published a January 19, 2005 editorial in Opinion Journal, in which she said:

Why did the president not ask Congress in 2001 to amend FISA to address these problems? My experience is instructive. After the TWA [Flight 847 hijacking] incident, I suggested asking the Hill to change the law. A career Justice Department official responded, "Congress will make it a political issue and we may come away with less ability to monitor."

The political posturing by Democrats who suddenly found problems with the NSA program after four years of supporting it during classified briefings only confirms that concern.

Victoria, shame on you, "political posturing?" It went way beyond simple political posturing. It was a clear attempt to lay all of the blame for the program at the feet of the President while covering themselves with false bravado for "standing up to the White House."

Well that was yesterday. Now we have a "new outrage." One which, if we were to believe the liars in Congress and the Propaganda wing of the Democrat Party we euphemistically call the "unbiased, independant, Press," exceeds the severity of the NSA wiretapping scandal.

Interestingly enough, we have basically the same players, giving us the same stories as before. We have the New York Lies Times telling the public about information given them by current and former government officials. Once again we have hysterical shouts of mock outrage echoing from the Democrat members of the intelligence committees. Fox News reports Senator John D. "Jay, I'm Filthy Rich" Rockefeller as first stating categorically that:

"The news that the tapes were destroyed was extremely disturbing to me and the CIA's description of notifying Congress is inconsistent with our records. As we learn more, it is only raising new questions and concerns," Intelligence Committee Chairman Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., said Friday.

"We do not know if there was intent to obstruct justice, an attempt to prevent congressional scrutiny, or whether they were simply destroyed out of concern they could be leaked — whatever the intent, we must get to the bottom of it. This is a very serious matter with very serious consequences," he added.

Rockefeller said the committee hasn't found records showing they were told about the existence of the tapes, or their plans to destroy them. He said he knew about about the tapes himself, but doesn't remember being told about plans to destroy them either.

Yes indeed Senator Rocky, "we must get to the bottom of it." But Fox News reports:

Jane Harman, then the senior Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, was one of only four members of Congress in 2003 informed of the tapes' existence and the CIA's intention to ultimately destroy them.

"I told the CIA that destroying videotapes of interrogations was a bad idea and urged them in writing not to do it," Harman said. While key lawmakers were briefed on the CIA's intention to destroy the tapes, they were not notified two years later when the spy agency actually carried out the plan. The Senate Intelligence Committee's Democratic chairman, Jay Rockefeller, said the committee only learned of the tapes' destruction in November 2006.

Now Jay, if you're going to play the self-righteous indignation card, hadn't you better get your story straight first. So the "bottom of it," Senator Rocky, is that you and your fellow Democrats are liars.

Now today on Fox News Channel's Special Report with Brit Hume it was revealed that they had received a "clarification" from Rockefeller's office stating that the Senator was so concerned with his responsibilities on the Intelligence committee that "he sent his aide" to the meeting at which the existence of the tapes was revealed as was the intent to destroy them.

Umm, is that another one of those "Whoops!" moments Senator Rocky? The tapes were destroyed in 2005, you admit that you were aware of that fact in 2006, yet it took you over a year to suddenly discover your outrage?

Nope, no political posturing here folks...

Like I said, the words Liberal and idiots are inextricably linked in todays political lexicon. How many time will Liberal voters fall for the same trick? How many times can their Senators be caught in lies before their constituents finally figure out their being deceived?

Sadly, it appears that the answer is "infinitely many." Liberals are idiots, paranoid idiots, idiots who see conpiracies everywhere they look. Liberals see "Vast right-wing conspiracies." Evergreen in their talking points you will find out that they believe that President Bush is plotting to declare himself dictator, that President Bush is a puppet being controlled by Dick Cheney, that President Bush is being controlled by Dick Cheney and Karl Rove, that President Bush lied about WMD so that America could spend $Hundreds of Billions in defense spending and thousands of troops' lives to gain control of $Tens of Billions in Iraqi oil reserves (now that's math that can only be a result of today's shoddy public education system), etc.

The plots and conspiracies are legion, but one thing is consistent, President Bush is either behind them all or being "handled" to cause them all. This obssesive hatred of President Bush by those on the Left is a pathology having no basis in reality. Liberals have long ago left the reservation, and very possibly the planet.

To call today's Liberals paranoiacs would be to give real paranoiacs a bad reputation. These folks are just hateful, uninformed, intellectual midgets, whose only goal is to gain control of our nation.
They are people who will not learn from history, cannot support their positions with any semblance of reasoned argument, but are absolutely certain they are right. As usual, Liberal arrogance is founded on a firm understanding of their own imaginings.

I suspect we will be finding out that this is once again much ado about nothing, intended as a diversion from the fact that this Democrat Congress has accomplished less that just about any Congress in history, yet they are still seeking reelection.

Long Live Our American Republic!!!

Oh the Horror! CIA Interrogation Tapes Destroyed...Yawn

So, the poisonous Dick "Pig Eyes" Durbin and his fellow idiots, Jane Harman and Jay Rockefeller are all a-twitter about the "scandalous action" of the CIA destroying interrogation tapes to protect the information contained in them, including the identities of the members of the CIA who were doing the interrogations...GOOD! I hope the heck so. That's what they are supposed to do, protect American secrets.

The Liberal idiots in the press just can't say "illegally destroyed" tapes often enough. The problem is, they were not "illegally destroyed," they were destroyed directly in accordance with the law. Of course you really have to look hard to find that out in the Paleo-media and you will never hear it admitted by a Democrat in front of a camera. Why...that would be telling the truth, something Democrats and Liberals in general are loathe to do.

Here's the Reuters account:

Democrats' fury grows over destroyed CIA tapes

By Randall Mikkelsen

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Congressional Democrats reacted furiously on Friday to the CIA's disclosure that it had made and destroyed videotapes of terrorism interrogations, as leading lawmakers called for a Justice Department inquiry.

The White House said President George W. Bush did not recollect being told about the CIA tapes or their destruction before Thursday, when he was briefed by the CIA director.

Assistant Senate Democratic Leader Dick Durbin of Illinois wrote Attorney General Michael Mukasey to request an investigation into whether the CIA violated obstruction-of-justice laws by destroying the tapes.

---snip----Here's the clincher for Dick "Dursban:"

"The CIA apparently withheld information about the existence of these videotapes from official proceedings, including the 9/11 Commission and a federal court," Durbin said in the letter. "It is the Justice Department's role to determine whether the law was violated.

What to do? What to do? The evil Republicans are covering up their evil doing...the evil president is hiding something!!!

The Democrat idiots are singing their song again "We're three little lamb[aster]s who've lost our way, blah, blah, blah.

But wait! Something's missing. Why am I so blase about all this? Because if you investigate the facts carefully enough you will discover the truth...a concept alien to liberal idiots and especially Dickie Boy...Congress knew all about this when it was done. Let me repeat...THEY ALREADY KNEW ABOUT THIS! This folderol, this self-righteous indignation is nothing but another act in the same old Democrat play.

You see the London Daily Telegraph also has this story, but buried deep in the bowels of the article is this little tidbit that somehow escaped Reuters News Service "reporters:"

CIA 'illegally destroyed' interrogation tapes

By Tom Chivers and agencies
Last Updated: 2:03pm GMT 07/12/2007

The US intelligence agency the CIA has been accused of criminally disposing of evidence of the "extreme" interrogation of terror suspects.

----------snip----------

Mr Hayden said the tapes, which were made in 2002, were destroyed out of fear that they would be leaked, compromising the identities of US interrogators.

The disclosure has brought condemnation from US politicians as well as from the charity Human Rights Watch.

The decision to destroy the tapes was taken in "the absence of any legal or internal reason to keep them", Mr Hayden wrote in an internal statement obtained by The Associated Press.

He claiming that the tapes were "no longer of intelligence value and not relevant to any internal, legislative or judicial inquiries."

"The tapes posed a serious security risk," he continued. "Were they ever to leak, they would permit identification of your CIA colleagues who had served in the programme, exposing them and their families to retaliation from al-Qa'eda and its sympathisers."

He added that the leaders of the Congress and Senate Intelligence Committees were made aware both of the existence of the tapes and the plan to destroy them, and that the CIA's internal watchdog viewed the tapes and declared the interrogation practices legal.

Oh! I bet that one hurts, doesn't it Dick-ie Boy; to be found out to be attempting to deceive the American people right from the very outset?

Hey Dick, you're a liar! You're a liar! You're a liar.

Congress denounces destroyed CIA tapes
Director Michael Hayden said keeping the coverage posed threat to interrogators.

By Pamela Hess
The Associated Press

WASHINGTON - The CIA videotaped its interrogations of two top terror suspects in 2002 and destroyed the tapes three years later out of fear they would leak to the public and compromise the identities of U.S. questioners, the director of the agency told employees Thursday.

The disclosure brought immediate condemnation from Capitol Hill and from a human rights group that charged the spy agency's action amounted to criminal destruction of evidence.

The Senate Intelligence Committee promised a full review of the situation.

---snip---Here you go!--

Rep. Jane Harman of El Segundo, then the senior Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, was one of only four members of Congress in 2003 informed of the tapes' existence and the CIA's intention to ultimately destroy them.
"I told the CIA that destroying videotapes of interrogations was a bad idea and urged them in writing not to do it," Harman said. While key lawmakers were briefed on the CIA's intention to destroy the tapes, they were not notified two years later when the spy agency went through with the plan. Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., said the committee only learned of the tapes' destruction in November 2006.

Hey Jane, maybe they disagreed with your opinion, whether it was in writing or not. Maybe they were more concerned about keeping the leakiest party in American history from divulging the identities of CIA operatives.

Why all the outrage over the non-covert Valerie Plame "exposure" (let's see that occurred on the cover of Vanity Fair, didn't it?) and not over these other actual covert operatives? Do I detect a hint of hypocrisy here?

This whole cooked up outrage is an attempt to distract from the fact that Democrats are about to capitulate on funding the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan with no strings attached. No timetables, no promises to withdraw troops, no troop "redeployments, nothing-zip-zero-nada-riente, no pro quo for their quid. That's got to hurt!

I mean here you are, just prior to the 2006 elections, promising your voters all kind of pie in the sky stuff you will accomplish in the next Congress if only they will vote for you and here you in the twelfth month of your reign with nothing to show for it but an increase in the minimum wage. There are more troops in Iraq than when you took control. Those troops are winning the war in spite of every road-block you could put in their paths; nothing but a bunch of pathetic losers. Whose incompetence becomes more apparent with each passing day. So, what do you do? You do what any good Liberal idiot would do, you try to divert the public's attention.

Democrats have been desperately trying to find camouflage for their complete surrender to the truth that, in spite of everything they could do to prevent it, we are winning the war in Iraq and in Afghanistan. This manufactured scandal is just the old magician's trick of trying to make you look in one direction so you don't see what is actually happening.

Well, Pig Eyes Durbin, that dog won't hunt. The harder the Democrat liars try, the worse this is going to look for them.

Man-oh-man this is funny stuff!

Long Live Our American Republic!!! [In spite of the Democrats]

Joe Horn Shootings: Dead Criminals Were Illegal Aliens; Part of Burglary Ring

As the saying goes, "More will be revealed." As the backgrounds of the two felons and other more damning information becomes known, I predict that Quanell X will quietly disappear from this whole affair . He won't be a man about it, he won't admit his wrong or apolgize to Joe Horn and his neighbors for his actions, he will just quietly fade from the scene.

It now turns out that our two "poor unfortunate" criminals were here illegally. The DPS had the two men "under observation" as part of an organized illegal immigration scheme. Here's a report from local CBS affiliate, KHOU Channel 11:

DPS was watching burglars shot by Horn

By Rucks Russell / KHOU 11 News
10:16 PM CST on Tuesday, December 4, 2007

Even before their deaths prompted a series of heated debates about the use of deadly force, detectives at the Department of Public Safety had their eye on Diego Ortiz and Miguel Dejesus.

The two were shot and killed by Joe Horn, a Pasadena man who thought they were burglarizing his neighbor’s home last month.

According to a DPS memo obtained by 11 News, the department was investigating the use of Puerto Rican birth certificates by Colombians seeking to obtain Texas driver’s licenses.

Both Ortiz and Dejesus had applied for licenses. Dejesus listed his country of origin as Puerto Rico, but both men were Colombian.

We are also finding out that the two men may also have been part of a burglary ring which targets legal aliens.

Joe Horn's neighbors were apparenly Vietnamese who had only moved in 4 months before the burglary. Police found approximately $2 thousand in cash in the bag the two crooks were carrying. Here is the latest from the Houston Chronicle:

2 shot in Pasadena here illegally
1 man had been deported in '99; officials looking at possible ties to a burglary ring

By ROBERT CROWE
Dec. 7, 2007, 1:23AM
Copyright 2007 Houston Chronicle

Two burglary suspects shot by a Pasadena homeowner last month were illegal immigrants from Colombia, and one man had been deported nearly 10 years ago, authorities said Thursday.

Authorities also said they are investigating whether Diego Ortiz, 30, and Hernando Riascos Torres, 48, were part of a crime ring linked to burglaries and the use of fake immigration documents.

----------snip----------

Pasadena Police Department Capt. A.H. "Bud" Corbett said Torres was deported to Colombia in 1999 after a 1994 cocaine-related conviction. He was on parole until 2017, Corbett said.

Police found a Puerto Rican identification card on Ortiz. He had two aliases.

Torres had identification cards from Colombia, Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic. He had three aliases.

State and federal authorities are investigating whether the two men, who lived in southwest Houston, were involved in the crime ring, Corbett said.

----------snip----------

"I don't believe the victim was a random choice ... but there's no evidence of a relationship either," between the homeowners and suspects, Corbett said.

----------snip----------

"They targeted foreign-born people," Corbett said. "They felt they were easier victims."

Little is known about the homeowners, who have Vietnamese surnames.

Neighbors said they own a small business near their Village Grove East subdivision.

Records filed with the Office of the Secretary of State of Texas show that the family owns a dry cleaning business on Fairmont Parkway.

What we are finding out leads to the bigger question of illegal immigration and the urgent need to stem the growing tide of illegals entering the United States.

These people are demonstrating their utter contempt for our laws when they enter our country, so why should we be surprised when they turn out to be criminals?

When people feel free to flaunt the law, they are led to being contemptuous of all laws.

Long Live Our American Rupublic!!!

Iran Wins at 3 Card Monty

Dateline: The Washington Post

By John R. BoltonThursday, December 6, 2007; Page A29

Excerpt

That such a flawed product could emerge after a drawn-out bureaucratic struggle is extremely troubling. While the president and others argue that we need to maintain pressure on Iran, this "intelligence" torpedo has all but sunk those efforts, inadequate as they were. Ironically, the NIE opens the way for Iran to achieve its military nuclear ambitions in an essentially unmolested fashion, to the detriment of us all.

Friends of Joe Horn Website is Up and Taking Donations

Real courage is not the absence of fear,

it is doing what is necessary in spite of your fear.

Great news for supporters of Joe Horn. His neighbors and supporters have set up a website and it provides a direct donation link for those wishing to use PayPal. It also provides the following information:

You Can Help Joe,
Donations for Joe Horn‘s legal defense can be made by dropping off a check to any Chase Bank written out to “Joe Horn Legal Defense Fund”.

Legal defense fund treasurer is Joe McMahon.

To visit the web page just click here: Joe Horn for My Neighbor

Any donations from this site will go to help Joe and his family in the wake of the shooting. Any unused money will go to the 100 Club for the Pasadena Police Department, who have treated Joe with respect throughout their investigation.

Remember, Joe didn't ask for any of this, he was just an ordinary "grandpaw" doing his run-of-the-mill daily routine. His actions, when he witnessed his neighbors uninvited visitors, are what have catapulted him into an un-wanted and unexpected celebrity status. What Joe did was extraordinary and makes him a hero.

Unfortunately in our now somewhat twisted society, the criminals all too often become the celebrities and the men like Joe Horn who act to stop them, become the villains in the eyes of the Liberal Press. Now Joe is faced with large legal bills and is threatened by the low life race-baiters like Quanell X.

It's our turn to show Joe Horn and the world that we are true to our Founding Fathers beliefs that we are our brother's keeper. Joe protected his neighbor's property and his own life. We must now gather together to support and protect him from the aggressive actions of groups like the "New Black Panthers" and prevent a travesty of justice.

I don't know Joe Horn, I have never met him and I probably never will, but I believe in him and in his actions. He did what many of us only talk about doing.

Joe Horn is me, Joe Horn is you, Joe Horn is any citizen who believes in our inherent right to protect ourselves and our property. He could have been any of us out here. This time it was him.

Will you stand up and support our everyman Hero, Joe Horn?

Long Live Our American Republic!!!

Intel Report States Iran Stopped Nuke Program in 2003...Riiight! No Worries.

Liberal and idiots are two words which should be permanently linked. Why? Because of the instant crowing and bloviating by congenital idiots like Harry Reid following the latest National Intelligence Estimate released this week by the intelligence (and I do use the word loosely here) community. What did it say?

Basically the 2007 NIE estimate on Iran's nuclear program said:

"Haha, just kidding! We got it wrong. Silly old us, we said in 2005 that Iran was moving aggressively toward the manufacture of a nuclear weapon, but we were wrong, what we really meant to say is the Iran ended its pursuit of nuclear weapons way back in 2003."

Well, I mean, given this sort of decisive information I guess we should all relax and become bestest buddies with Ahmadinejad and his little band of Forty Thieves. Now don't get all snooty with me just because I choose to treat this report with a little bit of skepticism. After all the intel community has such a spotless record of accuracy...

In fact, why don't we briefly review the wonderful record of the CIA and it's brother organizations over the last...say thirty years...

1. They accurately predicted the fall of the Soviet Union...oh wait, they didn't predict the fall of the Soviet Union; missed it entirely.
2. They warned us well ahead of time that Saddam Hussein was preparing to invade Kuwait...whoops, they missed that as well.
3. They caught the fact that Korea was cheating on its 1994 agreement the day after they agreed to close down all weapons research activity following that "signal" treaty penned by Madelleine Albright and Jimmy Carter. Oh damn! They missed that one too.
4. They warned us that al Qaeda terrorists, at the behest of Osama bin Laden, were planning to attack the American homeland. Dang, I forgot. They missed that little detail. Well it only cost us 3000 dead Americans and $ One Trillion in damages, no big deal.
5. They were dead on target with the WMD stories; you can take that to the bank. Oops, that check bounced as well.
6. They told us in 2005 that Iran had ended all attempts to build a nuclear weapon. That's for sure. Oh, "missed it by that much." I forgot the 2005 NIE told us that it was full speed ahead in Iran on nukes.

Given that stellar record, I am supposed to believe what they're telling me now? Now they are saying..."Uh, we were wrong in 2005, but you can bet we're right on this time." You betcha CIA, I'm definitely going to believe you this time, uh-huh.

Isn't there an old adage that goes something like this, "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me?" I wonder what it would say about fool me five times. Maybe something like "if you buy this garbage your an idiot."

Well Harry "The Real Estate Magnate" Reid had bought this one hook, line, and sinker. Except of course he only bought enough of it to enable him to attack the President one more time.First the original release in the Houston Chronicle:

U.S. says Iran stopped nuclear weapons program in '03
But intelligence officials insist the capability still remains

By PAMELA HESS
Associated Press
Dec. 3, 2007, 5:51PM

WASHINGTON — A new U.S. intelligence report concludes that Iran's nuclear weapons development program has been halted since the fall of 2003 because of international pressure — a stark contrast to the conclusions U.S. spy agencies drew just two years ago.

The finding is part of a National Intelligence Estimate on Iran that also cautions that Tehran continues to enrich uranium and still could develop a bomb between 2010 and 2015 if it decided to do so.

The conclusion that Iran's weapons program was still frozen, through at least mid-2007, represents a sharp turnaround from the previous intelligence assessment in 2005. Then, U.S. intelligence agencies believed Tehran was determined to develop a nuclear weapons capability and was continuing its weapons development program. The new report concludes that Iran's decisions are rational and pragmatic, and that Tehran is more susceptible to diplomatic and financial pressure than previously thought.

"Tehran's decision to halt its nuclear weapons program suggests it is less determined to develop nuclear weapons than we have been judging since 2005," says the unclassified summary of the secret report. [As always the title of this excerpt is a link to the original article.]

First you will note that the second line of the title is de-emphasized in spite of the warning it contains. Second if you read further into the article you begin to discover a number of interesting details people like Senator Majority Idiot, Harry Reid neglects to mention. Like the following excerpt from the same article:

Iran would not be able to technically produce and reprocess enough plutonium for a weapon before about 2015, the report says. But ultimately it has the technical and industrial capacity to build a bomb, "if it decides to do so," the intelligence agencies found. They said Iran's immediate intentions are a mystery.

"We do not have sufficient intelligence to judge confidently whether Tehran is willing to maintain the halt of its nuclear weapons program indefinitely while it weighs its options, or whether it will or already has set specific deadlines or criteria that will prompt it to restart its program," the report says. [Emphasis added]

This is far from the rosy prognostication as which Left-wing moonbats like Harry Reid are portraying it. Here's what that idiot hack Liberal Senator from Sin City said:

“President Bush’s heated rhetoric on Iran – including comments about a potential World War III – is even more outrageous now that we know the intelligence community had informed him that it believes Iran had stopped its nuclear weapons program four years ago. This is the latest in a long line of inaccurate and misleading comments that got us into the Iraq war to begin with. They further diminish the credibility of a President with a dangerous record of overstating threats.”

“In light of yesterday’s remarkable new National Intelligence Estimate on Iran, I urge the President at his press conference today to announce a top-to-bottom review of his Iran policy and a diplomatic surge to advance U.S. interests with regard to Iran. He should announce that his Secretary of State and Secretary of Defense are prepared to meet anytime, anywhere with their Iranian counterparts to conduct vigorous diplomacy to advance U.S. interests and address the challenges of Iran.

Yes Harry, I am certain that a man who has sworn to wipe Israel off the face of the planet and destroy the United States will really be affected by any efforts on our part to "conduct vigorous diplomacy." Harry is a great devotee of that stellar diplomat and hero to millions Neville Chamberlain. "Peace for our time," eh Harry?


Of course the idiot Liberals won't really be in favor of intervening until there's a mushroom cloud over Tel Aviv, an occurrence over which is am certain there will be much Liberal "Tut-tutting," or perhaps over New York City, in which case most of the Left-wing tin-hatters will be far too busy blaming America for causing Iranians and terrorists to hate us to do anything substantive about such an attack.

Of course in such an eventuality, I am certain the Liberals calls for "intense diplomacy" and "great deliberation before doing something precipitous like retaliating. After all that would be positively uncivilized and unsophisticated, besides which, horror of horror, the Europeans might think us barbaric."

Liberals hate to be thought of as "barbaric" by old, genetically depleted, effete, European "sophisticates." It's considered a fate worse that being slaughtered by a bunch of heathen Islamic extremists.

What is it with Liberals and surrender? They have to be genetically predispositioned to live in a fantasy world. They have been wrong on every level in every decision they have made regarding foreign policy over the last 60 years.

• They were wrong about "Uncle Joe" Stalin,
• they were wrong about Mao Tse Tung,
• they were wrong about Castro,
• they were wrong about Vietnam and the Tet offensive,
• they were wrong about the after effects of Vietnam and Pol Pot,
• they were wrong about the Shah of Iran, they were wrong about unilateral disarmament,
• they were wrong about Ronald Reagan's hard-line stance against the Soviet Union,
• they were wrong about Operation Restore Democracy and Haitian President Aristide (thought I'd forgotten that one didn't you Liberal idiots),
• they were wrong about Bosnia,
• they were wrong about North Korea and Kim Sung Il,
• they were wrong about Saddam Hussein...

Yet, they persist in mimicking a broken record in suggesting diplomacy is the answer to despotic murderers.

Q.E.D. The two words need to be inextricably linked. Liberal idiots is a redundancy that has finally achieved permanence in our lexicon; it's time has come.

So here's to all you Liberal idiots. May God protect us from your foolish decisions.

Long Live Our American Republic!!!
