Thank Yoo, Mr. President!

C’mon.  Let me get in one more shot before the year ends.  

This President is an absolute disgrace.

John Yoo, the architect of indefinite detention and torture, is now lording his depravity over this hapless goon of a Constitutional scholar we call the Mr. President.  To make a long story short, I snort, hock, and spit on them on both.

In related news, this was also the year we lost our Kodak moments.

Gird yer loins, and Best Wishes for the New Year.

  1. Because 2009 was the inflationariest of times, it was the deflationariest of times.  It’s good to know some people of character.  Thanks DD.

  3. what finally was too much for you? the bankers? bloodless politicians? the blood on the hands of the industrialized world? or the epidemic that was nothing more than my dutchman calls “a wet fart” . . .

    every time i say: fuck it. let it all implode, something else completely takes me over. the nigerian guy is another “too much” moment. i love it when the powers-that-be devise new ways to steal our tax dollars…  it’s a twofer, actually. body scans AND body bags out of Yemen. they can tie any thing together. it’s fucking award winning, i tell you.

    the nigerian guy was part of a terrorist plot? the only terrorist plot i know is the one perpetrated by the guys in three-piece suits stealing our money as they convince us to kill and bomb innocent people.

    fuck.

    happy new year, CF. nobody’s won yet. maybe we still have a chance.

    Let it not be said that Obama’s DoJ is any more competent that Bush’s was.

    Judge Drops Charges From Blackwater Deaths in Iraq

    BAGHDAD – Iraqis on Friday greeted news that criminal charges in the United States had been dismissed against Blackwater Worldwide security guards who opened fire on unarmed Iraqi civilians in 2007 with disbelief, anger and bitter resignation.

    Though the September 2007 shooting in a crowded central Baghdad traffic circle is regarded here as a signal event of the war, many victims had not been aware of the decision of a Federal District Court judge in Washington because the ruling was made public in Baghdad a few hours after the start of the new year.

    The attack at Nisour Square left 17 Iraqis dead and 27 wounded. Many of the victims were riding inside cars or buses at a busy traffic circle when a Blackwater convoy escorting American diplomats rolled through and began firing machine guns, grenade launchers and a sniper rifle.

    The Blackwater guards said they believed they had come under small arms fire from insurgents. But investigators concluded that the guards had indiscriminately fired on unarmed civilians in an unprovoked and unjustified assault.

    The incident calcified anti-American sentiment in Iraq and elsewhere, raised Iraqi concerns about the extent of its sovereignty because Blackwater guards had immunity from local prosecutors and reopened a debate about American dependence on private security contractors in the Iraq war.

    Many Iraqis also viewed the prosecution of the guards as a test case of American democratic principles, which have not been wholeheartedly embraced, and in particular of the fairness of the American judicial system.

    On Thursday, Judge Ricardo M. Urbina threw out manslaughter and weapons charges against five Blackwater guards because he said prosecutors had violated the men’s rights by building the case based on sworn statements that had been given by the guards under the promise of immunity.

    Prosecutors have not said whether they will appeal the decision.

    Everything old is new again. Happy New Year, CF
