U.S. Muslim Scholars To Forbid Terrorism Too little, too late? Where were these scholars 6 years ago? Perhaps, if they and the scholars in Arabia, who also issued a fatwa agaisnt Terrorism had not buried their head sin the sand for so long, London would not have happened. Padilla would not be held without benefit of counsel, and the World would have been jsut a bit safer and sane. But alas, it took the murder of civilians in London coupled with themurder of nealry 3,000 here in NYC and who knows how many civilians in Iraq for the leaders to say ENOUGH! YE SERVANTS OF IBLIS.

I believe it’s too littel to late…

Lexington Herald-Leader | 07/21/2005 | Bush trusts intuition in making his selection
When President Bush sat down in the White House residence last Thursday to interview a potential Supreme Court nominee, Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson III of the 4th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals, he asked him about the hardest decision he had ever made — and also how much he exercised.
“Well, I told him I ran 31/2 miles a day,” Wilkinson recalled yesterday. “And I said my doctor recommends a lot of cross-training, but I said I didn’t want to do the elliptical and the bike and the treadmill.” The president, Wilkinson said, “took umbrage at that,” and told his potential nominee that he should do the cross-training his doctor suggested.

BBC NEWS | UK | London blasts cause chaos on Tube

London’s Tube network has been plunged into chaos with stations cleared after minor blasts on two trains and a bus.
Met Police chief Sir Ian Blair said three Tube lines were suspended but it was time London returned to normal.

The minor explosions - two weeks after blasts killed 56 - involved detonators only, a BBC reporter said. There was one injury.

Police sources say the blasts may have been near simultaneous and that they are being linked with the 7 July bombs.

They say a number of fugitives are being sought. Two people have been arrested in Whitehall.

It didn’t work during WWII as Hitler discovered, it didn’t work as the IRA discovered, and you, you seditious fucks will learn the same. To you motherfucking seditious “religious leaders” I say, your days of freedom are numbered. YOu belong in prison servingup heaping spoonfuls of ‘martyrs crow” Long Life to ya, ya servants of Iblis

England, and most especially the Londoner is a unique species of Human. Bred onan island, they dominated the World both politcally and philosophically, giving us the Dictionary, Shakespeare, shaw and Chruchhill. They gave birth to the United Statesof America, Canada and Australia. They are an iron people with souls of Silver and Gold. In their rather cruel domination of Ireland, they gave birth to Shaw, Inge and osmeof the most beautiful poetry to ever flow from the English language. The Irish have flourished despite the idignities inflicted on them since Bloody Mary. You, you servants of Iblis, will merely wither like grapes rotting on the vine.

I have been following the treasonous action sof the White House, adn frankly, NO SURPRISE over the flip flop over ‘firing’ who,ever was responsible for violating the Law. He’s gone from “responsible” to Criminal. This in turn will transmorgaph into “convicted…” Like Gov. Howard Dean, I too agree with Bush 41:

“Even though I’m a tranquil guy now at this stage of my life, I have nothing but contempt and anger for those who betray the trust by exposing the name of our sources. They are, in my view, the most insidious of traitors.” April 26, 1999.
I guess, that makes his son a traitor for harboring a traitor. Latest reports say that the information may have been obtained duirng the AF 1 flight to Africa just before the Wilson Op-Ed piece. If so, I’d like to know why WH AIDES had access to Top Secret reports.
My father, who had DoE Q clearance,was unable to read reports he had written!

MORE Rove, NOW WITH WILSON ADDED!

and if you can’t trust John Dean, who was Richard Nixon’s Attorney during Watergate on this, who CAN you trust?

At The TableJuly 17, 2005 6:46 pm

I auditioned for a series of PSA’s this morning, and while I received high praise for my reading(s) the proof will be in the casting. The PSA’s are focused on Civil Public Discourse - You can disagree and still remain civil about it. I found them on first reading quite satirical and a bit over the top. I loved them. I arrived at Shetler Studios at 11:15 a.m. with my clothes sticking to me - just the way you want to be seen when audtitioning… I was handed the sides, and I looked them over to prepare. OI was called in, was shown how to place the wireless mic,- I began singING ANACREONTICKS (the original lyrics to the melody of The Star Spangled Banner) which the director loved, given my mark and asked to slate for the camera. I spent about 20 minutes reading a few different scripts - being told I “nailed the reading (give the damn role already) and otherwise having my ample actor’s ego stroked

and you know how weliked to be stroked…
