TUESDAY: The First Sign of the Apocalypse
You know things are really coming down when the GOP's OWN talking point is that Alberto Gonzales is just incompetent, not a lying crook. When they're trotting out Robert Novak to write this, you know they're staring down the barrel of eternal damnation. Fortunately, your own personal spirit guide, Sam Seder, is here to lead you unharmed through this morass. Today we'll have Air America's own David Bender, law professor Erwin Chemerinsky, and Markos from Daily Kos. Bon Appetit.

A recent BBC poll of 28,000 people in 27 countries that sought respondents' assessments of the role of states in international affairs resulted in Israel, Iran and the United States being rated (in that order) as the states with "the most negative influence on the world." Alas, for some that is the new axis of evil!
From the turn out here I would folks are underwhelmed.

Hello Shadow Bloggers...let the juggernaut begin
Hey, if (according to Novakula)Bush is so alone and isolated, wouldn't it be the perfect time for Dems to impeach?
Clinton was impeached. If Bush is not then democracy is messed-up broken and we need to start all over again.

Tillman family wants congressional probe By SCOTT LINDLAW, Associated Press Writer
Tue Mar 27, 5:42 AM ET
SAN JOSE, Calif. - Pat Tillman's family firmly rejected the Defense Department's findings into the former NFL star's friendly-fire death in Afghanistan, calling for congressional investigations into what they see as broad malfeasance and a coverup.
"Perhaps subpoenas are necessary to elicit candor and accuracy from the military," his family said in a statement Monday night, after hearing the results of the latest probes.
The men who shot Tillman have always claimed the April 22, 2004, incident was a terrible mistake in the fog of war, and the Army officially agreed Monday, declining to press charges.
But possible punishments still hang over several high-ranking officers who allegedly botched the investigations and key administrative tasks.
Nine Army officers, including four generals, made errors in reporting the friendly fire death to their superiors and to the Tillman family, the Pentagon said. Defense officials said one or more of those officers who provided misleading information as the military investigated could be charged with a crime.

Israel has occupied the West Bank and Gaza for 39 years. In 1948, 900,000 Palestinians were expelled from present day Israel. Their 6 million descendants live in refugee camps in the West Bank, Gaza and the surrounding Arab States. An 8-12 meter high wall stretches 622km annexing 13.1% of the West Bank. Seven students and a camera visited the West Bank for three weeks in June 2006. They drove around the West Bank, spending time in Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Aida Camp, Jenin, Ramallah among other areas. This is a glimpse of what they encountered.

Removing troops from Iraq is "offending language" to the GOP
by Joe Sudbay (DC) · 3/27/2007 08:39:00 AM ET
Republicans have no plan for Iraq. Never had one. Never questioned the war. Never challenged Bush. Now, they're offended by legislation that would start the process to get our troops out of the civil war:
"The final bill is likely to have the offending language in it," the Senate minority leader said as the Senate prepared to begin debating the war-funding bill, which sets March 31, 2008, as a goal for removing combat troops from Iraq.
At that point, he said, Bush would have to veto the legislation and lawmakers would have to get to work again.
Veto the bill because there's a plan to end the war. That's what will offend the American people.

Interesting thing about the Hatch Act on Wikipedia:
"Hostility to the Act
The Act was appealed to the Supreme Court in 1947 and 1974, both times claiming it was a violation of free speech, and both times it was upheld.
A proposed amendment, which had the same argument in mind, to permit federal workers' participation in political campaigns passed the House but not the Senate in 1987; in 1990 a similar bill passed both houses but was vetoed by President George H. W. Bush (emphasis mine), and the veto override failed in the House.

Indo-Iran gas pipeline will go ahead despite U.S. objections
Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee signaled Monday that New Delhi intends to go ahead with a multi-billion-dollar gas pipeline from Iran via Pakistan despite objections from the United States.
"Talks on this pipeline are going on. When I was in Iran, I had categorically mentioned that we are interested in having this pipeline," Mukherjee said in an interview with the NDTV news network.
"Now negotiations are going on about the prices," said the minister as carried by AFP news agency. The Indian top diplomat made a two-day visit to Tehran last month.

Monica Goodling, a senior Justice Department official involved in the firings of federal prosecutors, will refuse to answer questions at upcoming Senate hearings, citing Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination, her lawyer said Monday.
"The potential for legal jeopardy for Ms. Goodling from even her most truthful and accurate testimony under these circumstances is very real," said the lawyer, John Dowd.
"One need look no further than the recent circumstances and proceedings involving Lewis Libby," he said, a reference to the recent conviction of Vice President Dick Cheney's former chief of staff in the CIA leak case.
The White House, meanwhile, continued to stand by Attorney General Alberto Gonzales despite new calls over the weekend for his resignation and documents that indicate he may have been more involved in the dismissals than he has previously acknowledged.
Democrats have accused the Justice Department and the White House of purging the prosecutors for political reasons. The Bush administration maintains the firings were not improper because U.S. attorneys are political appointees.
Goodling was Gonzales' senior counsel and White House liaison until she took a leave of absence earlier this month. She was subpoenaed last week by the Senate Judiciary Committee along with several of Gonzales' other top aides.
There have been questions about whether Goodling and others misinformed Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty about the firings just before he testified before the Senate committee in February.
Dowd said that since then a senior Justice Department official had privately told a member of the Senate committee that he was misled by Goodling and others before testifying.
All Is Truth
...
Where has fail'd a perfect return, indifferent of lies or the truth?
Is it upon the ground, or in water or fire? or in the spirit of man?
or in the meat and blood? 10
Meditating among liars, and retreating sternly into myself, I see
that there are really no liars or lies after all,
And that nothing fails its perfect return--And that what are called
lies are perfect returns,
And that each thing exactly represents itself, and what has preceded
it,
And that the truth includes all, and is compact, just as much as
space is compact,
And that there is no flaw or vacuum in the amount of the truth--but
that all is truth without exception;
And henceforth I will go celebrate anything I see or am,
And sing and laugh, and deny nothing.

Daniel, I asked, right after the last Gulf war, if there was a resurgence of Cancer. It seemed to me I was hearing more and more about it. I was especially concerned because my mother was diagnosed with Lung Cancer.

House strips Bush of US Attorneys appointment authority Michael Roston
Published: Tuesday March 27, 2007
In a 329-78 vote last night, the House of Representatives followed the Senate and stripped President George W. Bush of the authority to appoint United States Attorneys on an interim basis, ending the ability of the Bush administration to do an end run around the Senate in putting controversial US Attorneys in office.
The bill sponsored by Rep. Howard Berman (D-CA) places a 120-day limit to the term of a United States Attorney appointed on an interim basis. Democrats allege that the previous authority to appoint interim US Attorneys on an unlimited basis, inserted stealthily into the 2006 reauthorization of the USA Patriot Act, was used as a 'loophole' to insert Bush administration political loyalists into office.
Rep. John Conyers (D-MI), the Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, said the 'awesome powers' of the US Attorneys required Senate confirmation of their appointments.
"The bill before us today...will restore the historical checks and balances to the process by which interim U.S. Attorneys are appointed," he said. "It will repair a breach in the law that has been a major contributing factor in the recent termination of eight able and experienced United States Attorneys and their replacement with interim appointments."

SingSing says:
Erwin Chemerinsky was CYA in his response to the damage done by GonzoRove to the system, saying that it has lasted 200 years and is robust enough to heal from it's politicization.
The trend has been toward fascism and the meaning of the term "MODERATE" has been shifted definitively to the right. Certainly the loudest voices are those that contradict this reality, since they have the largest megaphone, thanks to media consolidation, but that doesn't make their argument true. (THE SYSTEM IS ALREADY DYSFUNCTIONAL AND GETTING WORSE!!! Per capita, what country has the most citizens incarcerated in CORPORATE OWNED or GOV'T PRISONS?)
FEAR of retribution is stifling whistleblowers across the board. Although Chemerinsky and Turley appear bold in their efforts to speak truth to power, their voices are not reaching the majority of populous. More that half of WE THE PEOPLE are still willing to sacrifice liberty for "SECURITY" be it imagined, or tangible.

11:23 U.S. Navy launches show of force off coast of Iran- CBS4.com
CBS4.com is reporting The U.S. Navy on Tuesday began its largest demonstration of force in the Persian Gulf since the 2003 invasion of Iraq, led by a pair of aircraft carriers and backed by warplanes flying simulated attack maneuvers off the coast of Iran. The maneuvers bring together two strike groups of U.S. warships and more than 100 U.S. warplanes to conduct simulated air warfare in the crowded Gulf shipping lanes. The U.S. exercises come just four days after Iran's capture of 15 British sailors and marines who Iran said had strayed into Iranian waters near the Gulf. Britain and the U.S. Navy have insisted the British sailors were operating in Iraqi waters.

The US Navy said on Tuesday it is staging major war games in the Gulf with two aircraft carriers for the first time since the 2003 invasion of Iraq, at a time of heightened tension with Iran.
The manoeuvres involve the USS John C. Stennis, the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower and their battle groups.
They are being held as tensions run high between the West and the Islamic republic over Tehran's nuclear drive and the capture last week of 15 British marines and sailors in a waterway between Iran and Iraq in the northern Gulf.
"Two air wings from the aircraft carriers will conduct air warfare exercises while the surface components will conduct exercises in three general disciplines: anti-submarine, anti-surface and mine warfare," the Fifth Fleet said in a statement.
"This exercise demonstrates the importance of both strike groups ability to plan and conduct dual task force operations as part of the US long-standing commitment to maintaining maritime security and stability in this region."
The Fifth Fleet is based in Bahrain, an island state which lies across the Gulf from Iran.
The United States announced in January that it plans to keep the two carrier battle groups in the Gulf for months to step up the US military presence in the oil-rich region.

Congressman Who Defends Rove’s Refusal To Testify Calls On President Clinton To Testify
Rep. Lamar Smith (R-TX), the ranking member on the House Judiciary Committee, says it’s perfectly acceptable for Karl Rove and other top White House aides to refuse testifying over the U.S. Attorney scandal.
Smith didn’t show up to last week’s hearing when the Judiciary Committee authorized subpoenas against Rove and others. He called the session “political grandstanding” and said he would not help “provide votes for political subpoenas.”
Smith’s principled aversion to political grandstanding and belief in executive privilege was again on display yesterday, when he wrote a public letter to President Clinton asking him to testify about presidential pardons. An excerpt:
Dear President Clinton,
The House Committee on the Judiciary’s Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security will hold a hearing on Thursday, March 29, 2007, at 10:00 a.m. in room 2141 of the Rayburn House Office Building on the appropriate use of the presidential pardon authority. I would like to inquire as to your availability to testify at this hearing. […]
You are no stranger to controversial pardons, most notably the pardon of Marc Rich on your last day in office. I can think of no better person than you to speak on this issue. I believe your experience with exercising the pardon authority and defending it from intrusion by Congress would be invaluable to Members of the Subcommittee and I hope you are available to join us for this important hearing.
So, calling on Karl Rove to testify about a scandal involving possible illegal actions after evidence shows Rove and his deputies played a direct role is “political grandstanding.” This letter to Clinton isn’t.
For what it’s worth, President Clinton’s spokesman says Clinton is traveling on Thursday and won’t be available to attend the hearings.

"We're going to be re-examining the broad authorities we granted the FBI in the Patriot Act," Committee Chairman Sen. Patrick Leahy (news, bio, voting record), D-Vt., told Mueller.
Mueller urged the panel not to revise the law.
"The statute did not cause the errors," Mueller said. "The FBI's implementation did."
He said he instituted procedures to police the use of these letters. "What I did not do and should have done is put in a compliance program to be sure those procedures were followed," the FBI chief added.
He said he has now begun to do that, has ordered an audit to determine the full extent of the problem and to determine if any agents should be disciplined.
"We are committed to demonstrating to committee, the Congress and the American people that we will correct the deficiencies," Mueller said.
"I still have very serious qualms," Leahy replied.

Good morning Everyone,
Poking the bear? The bear is the symbol of Russia and the Soviet Union. So what the hell is Comrad Fellow Traveler Rushski Limbaugh trying to imprint upon the conservative consciousness?
“By the end of the century up to two fifths of the land surface of the Earth will have a hotter climate unlike anything that currently exists,” according to a new study. “And in the worst case scenario, the climatic conditions on another 48% of the land surface will no longer exist on the planet at all.”

The Fifth Made Simple
By Paul Kiel - March 27, 2007, 11:51 AM
Josh broached the issue of Monica Goodling's invocation of the Fifth last night, and since then a number of lawyers have written in to say that it's really not so complicated.
Here's TPM Reader/Lawyer DL:
Although Dowd's letter on Goodling's behalf is a model of lawyerly obfuscation, Ms. Goodling's affidavit, which is attached to the letter, invokes the magic word "self-incrimination," and therefore appears to satisfy the foundation for asserting the privilege.
And another TPM reader, this one a lawyer in D.C., is even more frank:
Monica Goodling does have a good faith basis for pleading the Fifth Amendment - just not the ones in her lawyer's letter that are getting all the attention.
Under the federal False Statements statute, 18 USC 1001, it is a felony to cause another person to make a false statement to Congress. Since McNulty has allegedly told Senator Schumer that he made a false statement to Congress based on information provided to him by Monica Goodling, Goodling could very well be prosecuted for a Section 1001 violation.
All the rest of the crap in her lawyer's letter is intended to sooth as much as possible White House anger at her for invoking the Fifth.

historically you could go up into the mountains around the desert and find temperatures 30 degrees lower. over the past few years this phenomena is quickly disappearing.

impeachment should not be pursued so that Bush can drag the country down the toilet even more?
and then while we are all in the sewer together, we can tell our conservative friends, "Well, we told you this guy sucked."

I was in Mesa AZ two years ago. We took a drive up into the Mountains SE of Mesa and it was not much cooler. That day , in Mesa, it was 102. The area by the lake on the mountain was 92. Only 10 degrees cooler.
The Edwards campaign has become a side-show. Money will soon start to dry up. Hillary must be defeated in the primary. If we go into the general election with a woman candidate, we will see eight more years of the republican veto.
Dems Allege Interference in Phone-Jamming Case
by Peter Overby
All Things Considered, March 26, 2007 · Questions about political pressure in the Justice Department are spilling over into the New Hampshire phone-jamming case.
Five years ago, New Hampshire Republicans jammed the phones of Democratic offices on Election Day, disrupting the Democrats' get-out-the-vote efforts and blocking phone calls from voters seeking rides to the polls. More than two years later, the New England coordinator for the Republican National Committee — who green-lighted the scheme — was charged with a felony and convicted.
But last week, a federal appeals court overturned the conviction.
Democrats allege that Justice Department officials in Washington interfered in the case, and they want Congress to investigate.
why can't people understand that me & the o.g. are just 2 blokes hitting each other

Sen. Webb just spoke about his Aide being arrested for carying a weapon and ammo in his brief case.
Webb didn't say much, although he did say that he didn't give his aid his gun. He's say no more because he didn't want to influence the case against him.
The aide will no longer be an aid after this.
Webb did say he was a proponent of the 2nd Amendment, the right to carry arms and it is legal in Virginia.
He said since 9/11, any government official has the right to defend himself and his family.
it's mano-o-mano warfare

Over 240 Arrested Since "Occupation Watch" Launched to Call on Congress to End War Funding
The Senate is preparing to vote this week on a spending bill that would give the President $100 billion more for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan but also establish a timeline for the withdrawal of troops from Iraq by next year. We speak with veteran peace activist Kathy Kelly On Capitol Hill, the Senate is preparing to vote this week on a spending bill that would give the President $100 billion more for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan but also establish a timeline for the withdrawal of troops from Iraq by next year. On Friday the House passed a similar bill by a margin of 218 to 212.
A total of 14 Democrats voted against the bill including eight who oppose any more funding of the war. The eight anti-war Democrats were, Maxine Waters, Lynn Woolsey, Diane Watson and Barbara Lee, all of California, Dennis Kucinich of Ohio, John Lewis of Georgia, Mike McNulty of New York and Mike Michaud of Maine.
Many anti-war activists were pushing Congress to reject all future funding of the war. Last month, the group Voices For Creative Nonviolence launched the Occupation Project. Activists around the country traveled to congressional offices and conducted sit-ins while calling on lawmakers to stop funding the war.
Over 240 peace activists have been arrested since the Occupation Project began.
Kathy Kelly - the co-coordinator of Voices for Creative Nonviolence - joins us here in New York. In 1997 Kathy Kelly founded Voices in the Wilderness which campaigned against the U.S. sanctions in Iraq. She has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize three times. Her latest book is called "Other Lands Have Dreams: From Baghdad to Pekin Prison."
