Seeing the Bush through all the Trees
Author: BobR Date: 10/29/2008 12:15:51

In all the hoopla leading up to election day (6 more days!), there has been so much focus on the candidates, that the Bush Administration has been pretty much ignored. Considering he still has almost 3 months left to drown us in the bathtub, perhaps it's time to take a moment to see what they're doing.

The story that's gotten the most play has been the raid in Syria that resulted in the deaths of 7 people, 3 of whom were children. U.S. officials are calling it a warning:

But officials said the raid Sunday, apparently the first acknowledged instance of U.S. ground forces operating in Syria, was intended to send a warning to the Syrian government. "You have to clean up the global threat that is in your back yard, and if you won't do that, we are left with no choice but to take these matters into our hands," said a senior U.S. official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the cross-border strike.

The United States has offered similar justifications for recent cross-border strikes in Pakistan, where it has launched missile attacks and at least one air assault against suspected members of Afghanistan's Taliban insurgency. "As targets present themselves, and are identified . . . they become more and more at risk. Just like in Pakistan, there will be steps taken to deal with it," the senior official said.

I guess that's all part of the "Bush Doctrine" (do ya get it now Sarah?). Writer Robert Dreyfus asks Is this the Bush Doctrine 2.0?:

A parallel new Bush doctrine is emerging, in the last days of the soon-to-be-ancien regime, and it needs to be strangled in its crib. Like the original Bush doctrine -- the one that Sarah Palin couldn't name, which called for preventive military action against emerging threats -- this one also casts international law aside by insisting that the United States has an inherent right to cross international borders in "hot pursuit" of anyone it doesn't like.

They're already applying it to Pakistan, and this week Syria was the target. Is Iran next?

As if this wasn't aggressive enough, Robert Gates is requesting new nukes:

After making a comment the same day saying that Russia must reduce its nuclear arsenal, Defense Secretary Robert Gates called on the United States to begin testing its nuclear weapon program and fund a new generation of nuclear weapons.

The Bush Administration is at odds with Congress on a law that would authorize the funding for a Reliable Replacable Warhead project -- the so called "next generation" of nuclear weapon designs.

"To be blunt, there is absolutely no way we can maintain a credible deterrent and reduce the number of weapons in our stockpile without resorting to testing our stockpile or pursuing a modernization program," Gates told the Carnegie Endowment, where he spoke Thursday, according to prepared remarks posted by .

Of course, to build all those nukes we'll need plenty of uranium. Where can we get it? How about the Grand Canyon?

The Bush administration allowed Phoenix-based Neutron Energy to stake 20 new mining claims south of the Grand Canyon on August 7, in violation of an emergency Congressional resolution passed seven weeks earlier that declared off limits to mining activity approximately 1 million acres adjacent to Grand Canyon National Park.

A new Environmental Working Group (EWG) analysis of records generated by the Interior department's Bureau of Land Management unearthed evidence of Neutron Energy's claims, filed in defiance of a Congressional resolution aimed at protecting the Canyon and the Colorado River that flows through it from a surge of uranium mining activity sparked by uranium prices escalating in anticipation of new nuclear power plant construction.

"The Bush administration's Grand Canyon giveaway is a direct violation of the law," said EWG Senior Analyst for Public Lands Dusty Horwitt. "This is the environmental equivalent of a subprime mortgage on the nation's most iconic natural treasure. Mining companies get in cheap today, and the public pays tomorrow for what is certain to be a major environmental disaster."

Three more months of this? Oy...

Well, there's more bizarreness around these parts.

Former Governor Jean Shaheen (D-NH) is running against John Sununu (R-NH) for the senate seat Mr. Sununu currently holds.

On September 12, 2001 Then Gov. Jean Shaheen said "I stand with President Bush" regarding the warron terra. (*sigh*, didn't we all?)

Guess who is running ads attempting to tie one candidate to President Bush and playing the quote "I stand with President Bush" over and over and over in a radio ad?

Truly bizarre.

Morning 4Fers,

Great post BobR

I continue to suffer from "election anxiety syndrome" no sleep, no appetite, fear of leaving the house, and a constant need to refresh HuffPo and 538.com - anybody else got this particular ailment? Any known cures? Just wondering. Another Obama sign was stolen out of my yard last night :modbat:

I really could have used an RB Perot impression this morning :P

Cheers,

I'm obsessing over particular states.

McCain is visiting NH again, but then there's this story, also in the Globe today that contains this nugget:

"I get the sense it's shutting down," said Tom Rath, a GOP consultant in New Hampshire where McCain trails by 18 points.

I guess I'm just not undersanding Johhny's obsession with our fair neighbor to the North. And Keith was on about him "surprising the pudnits" and winning in PA, too.

As Buzz Lightyear once said..."You are a sad, strange little man, and you have my pity. Farewell. "

Thanks - I like Knots too but there is something about the romanesque that draws me - might be the colors I used. These were the first time I used PrismaColor markers, usually stay away from those but I really wanted strong colors.

Looking at the map at Electoral-vote, I just don't see how McCain can win. To get 270, he needs to pick up all of the ties, all of the "barely dem", and then 3 of the 4 "weak dem" states...

It just doesn't seem possible.

Thats the site I've been watching - I don't even think McCain has broken 200 yet. Only thing I'm worried about is electoral-vote had Kerry winning in '04, so I take it with a grain of salt.

hm.

I started clearing up my "lair" downstairs....my old workbench and spray booth area that I've always kept partly clear in the cellar.

I used to build scale models, and I was pretty damn good at it too...but I haven't completed a model in more than 5 years now.

But I'm itching to build something...and maybe after November 4 I'll have reason to breathe a big sigh of relief and try to relax some.

Bud Selig is a miserable human being.

Game 5 has gone past the minimum 4.5 innings to count as a game, yes...but if this had happened in the regular season, wouldn't they wipe out the result and play a fresh nine innings when the weather cleared?

Comment by

*grunt*

If a game is rained out before play begins, it is rescheduled for a later date. If a game is called after play begins but before 4 1/2 innings have been completed (if the home team is ahead) or five innings have been completed (if the visitors are ahead or the game is tied), the game is not an official game. The umpire declares "No Game", the game is played in its entirety at a later date, and statistics compiled during the game are not counted. Games that are stopped after they become official games count in the standings (unless the game is tied, in which case it is continued at a later date, usually the next day), and statistics compiled during the game are counted.

Bud Selig still sucks.

Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun and the third-largest and fourth-most massive planet in the solar system. It is named after the ancient Greek deity of the sky, the father of Kronos (Saturn) and grandfather of Zeus (Jupiter). Though it is visible to the naked eye like the five classical planets, it was never recognized as a planet by ancient observers due to its dimness and slow orbit.

Dimness and slow orbit....if that's not a metaphor for the McCain campaign, I don't know what is.

Well she kinda showed up about 3 weeks ago... a few of the neighbors had been feeding her, and we looked around and figured if she stays she has a home. She has a home now. Camille is ok with it... she is still kinda grumpy, but she is getting better.

As to new arrivals, not yet, but she is an older kitten, and she was mighty skinny a few weeks ago, now she has a pronounced bulge. Our neighbor mentiuoned that when she first found her, she had some bite marks on her neck... and then the light went obn... she may be pregnant (thus, Random, the Bristol Palin comment -- she is a knocked up teenager)

Comment by

livingonli on 10/29/2008 17:47:46

The Kittie was a slut. A friend of mine had a cat that got knocked up by one of the other kittens and the roommate said that she went to get her fixed after that but she got pregnant again. This friend of mine broke up with the roommate a long time ago because of trust issues.

Sarah Palin is an idiot... reason number 794:

Palin spoke after touring Xunlight Corp., one of a handful of solar technology startup companies in Toledo, a struggling industrial city in this swing state. The city's leaders are hoping that the solar companies will create jobs to replace some of those lost by downsizing in the auto industry.

But Palin made only a passing reference to solar power in her speech and instead renewed her call for more drilling in U.S. coastal waters. She repeated her signature anthem, "drill, baby, drill," which seemed to fall a bit flat on the audience at the plant even as it's become a popular chant at her rallies.

Tom Delay (on Hardball) is a true hate mongererer.

HE just called Barack Obama a Marxist.

and went on further from there. HE also said that Barney frank is a liberal... ( I know he is ) and is trying to paint BArack is MORE liberal than Frank.

OK -- America, you have a choice, John McCain or Barack.

One man is asking you to fear. The other asking you to hope for the best of this country.

I hope. I do not fear.

one would have us cower --- lower than we are now... one would have us believe.

Not to John McCain, spending is how you get out of a recession. Look it up its called "pump priming" see John Maynard Keynes' "The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money." Asshat.

But after all, look at how great things were under the economic policies that the Republicans support, the ones of the Gilded Age.

Actually Liv, that whole go out and spend after 911 was Keynesian theory. Spending money puts it in the economy. I've been reading a book about the Great Depression. Lots of economic theory in parts.

Heya kids,

Please check out my blog (not just to boost my numbers :D), but because Sherman Alexie was on the Colbert Report last night and he is a spectacular author (one of my all-time favorite Native writers - he is the author of Ten Little Indians, The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven, Reservation Blues, among many other excellent books, and he comes out clearly for Obama - yeah :airhump:). Check it out (http://emailstosms.blogspot.com/ )and whoo hoo, Skins :P
