Wall Street Journal (2010) - The Anthrax Attacks Remain Unsolved
The FBI disproved its main theory about how the spores were weaponized.

Cheney and his staff were given doses of the anti-anthrax Cipro right after the 9/11 attacks

"On the night of the Sept. 11 attacks, the White House Medical Office dispensed Cipro to staff accompanying Vice President Dick Cheney as he was secreted off to the safety of Camp David, and told them it was "a precaution," according to one person directly involved."

"Let me put it this way," Bush said. "I'm confident that when I come to work tomorrow, I'll be safe."

from Kaufmans editorial published in the BMJ.
snip:

Indeed, the dirty secret of world hunger is that the creation of a grain surplus is no solution. There is plenty of food on earth, more than double that needed to feed all 6.5 billion of us.4 The problem is not food availability, but price. People starve when the daily pay check doesn’t cover the daily bread.

Da south... just because

Da South

Why is it the south was so easily pacified? I mean look at the world. Most people in the world get really angry and revolt when their land is occupied. The US has been occupying the south for a century and not a peep out of you. Well Wallace tried to stir things up I guess.

But seriously. The US beat you in a war and laid down the law and I must say I've never seen any people on the planet take it as well as you southerners do.

If only people all around the world could be pacified as easily as the Confederates!

Good Riddance, Aughts!

via: Could Everyone Please Stop Pissing Me Off

Dear Aughts (00 – 09),

Wow, what a decade. Way to suck far more than not…

Way to lose nearly 10,000 Americans needlessly from a manufactured war (Iraq), a submerged city (New Orleans), and a possibly preventable terrorist act (9/11).

*But on the bright side, most of those Americans who died weren’t wealthy.

Way to systematically tighten the governmental grip on our freedoms; like talking on a phone and being illegally listened to, or protesting the lies of a president and landing on a “watch list”, or voting in an election and then having a hand-picked court step in to decide the outcome anyway.

*But hey, at least we’re doing all we can to keep the government from aiding us with our health.

Way to take the country’s media and turn it into one giant, biased, money-making scheme.


*Were it not for comedians like Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert speaking truth to power, we may have zero straight-forward bullshit detectors left.

Way to stay out of the violent quagmire that is Iraq / Iran / Afghanistan / Yemen, and the rest of what is the craziest, most unstable region on the planet.

*It’s not like there were consequences the last time we fucked around in the Middle East, back in the 80’s under Reagan.

Seriously aughts, WTF?! Many Americans were less upset by election fraud, Wall-street greed, and war-profiteering, than they were about Janet Jackson’s exposed booby!

*But again, on the bright side, we do now have Snuggies, 600 cable channels, and Twitter.

So now that your time is up, will you please disappear forever? Honestly, we’d rather have to stare at Ann Coulter’s adam’s apple than have to spend any more time with you.

Now go. And take your Florida recounts, and your Jon & Kate’s, and your Bluetooths, and your bin-Ladens, and your Viagra, and your baconaisse, and your regime-change, and your Jersey Shore, and your Arena Football, and your Enron, and your Transformers with you!!!!!

Go, we say…

Americans Who Know Better
