Mosquito says, "People who live in glass houses should not throw stones." Did Rove forgot to look this word up before authorization?

Katrina--What the MSM is NOT Reporting
A year has passed since Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast. Congress was quick to authorize $110 billion in federal funds to rebuild New Orleans--NOLA. One year later, the debris is still there and not one single home rebuilt. 73,000 NOLA residents live in FEMA trailers and another 200,000, more than half the city’s former residents, remain in temporary refuges.
Now a new report surfaces that the corporate welfare philosophy the Bush administration promotes and the Corporate Congress supports placed Americans living in New Orleans at high risk.
BBC investigative journalist Greg Pallast reveals that FEMA had no evacuation plan for New Orleans. An evacuation plan should have been in the hands of every FEMA first responder, in the firehouses, police stations, and hospitals of New Orleans.
Unfortunately, cronyism raised it’s ugly head again in our corporate controlled government. The evacuation plan for New Orleans was privatized and outsourced to IEM--“Innovative Emergency Management,” a Baton Rouge corporation.
The Bush Administration authorized $500,000 to IEM for a NOLA evacuation plan. Amazingly, no such plan is on file anywhere. FEMA has refused to comment on this.
Pallast reports:
Pallast could not find any prior history of IEM’s work in evacuation planning services.
IEM has refused to comment. Since the corporate mainstream media is not picking this story up they probably figure it's best to lay low and let it be. With a little time they can proceed with business as usual. Isn't that how things work in Bush's America? No one has to be responsible or accountable if you are connected with money and Corporate America.
Thousands of Americans needlessly died due to no evacuation plan. An evacuation plan that should have been in effect long before Hurricane Katrina struck.
This report surfaced due to the integrity of Dr. Ivor van Heerden, the Deputy Director of the Louisiana State University Hurricane Center. He has been threatened with the loss of his job if he revealed what he knows.
Dr. van Heerden knows alot. Louisiana State University developed a disaster plan for NOLA which included the 127,000 people in the city who didn’t have cars. LSU knew where these no-car people were — they mapped it — and how to get them out. Pallast writes:
Meanwhile the Bush administration says that they have hired a consulting firm to fix the failed evacuation plan. Who did they hire? IEM, the same company who failed with the first contract and refused to comment on the Pallast story. Could the Bush administration be more corrupt, more incompetent? When is our Corporate Congress going to remember they are supposed to be the US Congress and hold this administration accountable for something? When will our Justice Department and our legal system do their job and go after corporations that are fraudelent?
We need to dump this crony filled Corporate Congress and elect a U.S. Congress that will act quickly to insure that "whistleblowers" are protected from the Bush Administration. The U.S. Congress should Authorize an independent investigation on the Katrina debacle so the appropriate folks are finally held accountable.

The Bush Administration authorized $500,000 to IEM for a NOLA evacuation plan. Amazingly, no such plan is on file anywhere. FEMA has refused to comment on this.
Pallast reports:
“…IEM’s founder, Madhu Beriwal, had no known experience in hurricane evacuations. She did, however, have a lot of experience in donating to Republicans....An IEM press release in June 2004 boasted legendary expert James Lee Witt [the former FEMA Director] as a member of their team. That was impressive. It was also a lie. In fact, Witt had nothing to do with it. When I asked IEM point blank if Witt’s name was used as a fraudulent hook to get the contract, their spokeswoman said, weirdly, “We’ll get back to you on that.”
Pallast could not find any prior history of IEM’s work in evacuation planning services.

Dr. van Heerden offered this life-saving info to FEMA. They wouldn’t touch it. Then, a state official told him to shut up, back off or there would be consequences for van Heerden’s position. This official now works for IEM....
Van Heerden had other disturbing news. The Hurricane Center’s computer models showed the federal government had built the levees around the city a foot-and-a-half too short.
After Katrina, the Hurricane Center analyzed the flooding and found that, had the levees had just that extra 18 inches, they would have been “overtopped” for only an hour and a half, not four hours. In that case, the levees would have held, and the city would have been saved.
He had taken the warning about the levees all the way to George Bush’s doorstep. “I myself briefed senior officials including somebody from the White House.” The response: the university’s trustees threatened his job."

Corporations love George Allen
It looks like George Allen disapoints consumers but is a favorite of corporate special interests. Why am I not surprised? Of course, George Allen loves to brag about how much money he has to run for office, courtesy of these wonderful corporate folks.
Does anyone wonder why George Allen does not like to talk about the bills he supports in Washington when he's out on the campaign trail?

Allen is Running Away From His Constituents?
Mosquito was LOL reading on Daily Kos how Mike Stark, a UVA student, asked George Allen a pertinent question given Allen's history and his recent Macaca rant.
Stark asked The question, "Have you ever used the word nigger?"
Allen answered, "Oh, c'mon... sheesh..."
Stark also asked Allen to explain why he had a confederate flag and a noose hanging from the tree in his law office.
Allen's said, "Listen - just let me do this here, and then I'll answer your question about the flag and the noose."
Then his campaign staff had the hotel manager ask the law student to leave.
Allen then cancelled the rest of his day's events.
How is Allen going to campaign in Virginia if he won't answer questions from his constituents?
Allen is running all right....from his constituents. This is not a good sign.
Maybe we should collect footage from around the state of Allen avoiding his constituents. We could title it, "See Allen Run."

I Beta'd but shoulda Waita'd...
oh...why are mosquitos so quick?
I jumped on board the blogspot beta bandwagon and it appeared that I lost all my technorati and my ability to let folks know I posted something via leftblogs, blognetnews....BUT...hopefully it's fixed...IF this post ends up showing up.
Between the blog glitch, family, life, and trying to help a friend find someone to edit that Drake videotapy (we have a lead but if you have someone in Hampton Roads who can load up our videotape, help us edit to get it up on You Tube)...please get in touch with me.
So hopefully things will settle down and the posts will start going up again. Too many exciting things are happening to get blown off the net now!
Hope all is well out there....Buzz...Buzz....Mosquito

California Cowboy Man
This is a rough draft of a song by Star Womanspirit. Posted with her permission.
Sing to Bob Dylan's Tambourine Man music.
Chorus:
California Cowboy Man don't say your lies to me
I'm not happy and I'm not going to vote for you
California Cowboy Man don't say your lies to me
Take that noose down from your tree and ride away.
Though I know the corporate empires will turn me into sand
Money vanishes from my hand
You want me blindly here to stand and never seeing
My weariness amazes me, you tried to tie my feet
I have others to meet
Your ancient, empty lies are dead for dreaming
Chorus
I know the corporations have bought your Senate seat
Haliburton's off the hook
You left me blind to pay bills that I'm not buying
You gave them Net Neutrality, tried to strip me of free speech
You called Sid Macaque
You racist slang awoke us from our blinding sleep
Emding Chorus (keep repeating and fade out)
I'm rising from deep sleep to march in Webb's parade
To safeguard my freedom from the likes of you.
California Cowboy Man don't say your lies to me
I'm not happy and I'm not going to vote for you
California Cowboy Man don't say your lies to me
Take that noose down from your tree and ride to Iowa.
California Cowboy man don't say your lies to me
Take that noose down from your tree and ride to Iowa....
Sing to Bob Dylan's Tambourine Man music.
Chorus:
California Cowboy Man don't say your lies to me
I'm not happy and I'm not going to vote for you
California Cowboy Man don't say your lies to me
Take that noose down from your tree and ride away.
Though I know the corporate empires will turn me into sand
Money vanishes from my hand
You want me blindly here to stand and never seeing
My weariness amazes me, you tried to tie my feet
I have others to meet
Your ancient, empty lies are dead for dreaming
Chorus
I know the corporations have bought your Senate seat
Haliburton's off the hook
You left me blind to pay bills that I'm not buying
You gave them Net Neutrality, tried to strip me of free speech

Is That Karen Hughes at Drake's Coffee Chat?
What is Karen Hughes doing at a Thelma Drake Coffee Chat?
Video footage taken at Drake's 8/18/06 Coffee at Princess Anne Library in Va. Beach captured an attendee who looks and talks like Karen Hughes.
Comparing the video's voice track to an online voice track appears to verify the sighting along with video comparisons from online videos.
Unfortunately, my friend (who shot the footage and made the connection that day) has been unsuccessfully searching for someone with editing capabilities so she can download and edit the film and get it up on you tube. Anyone know someone in the Hampton Roads area who would like to assist in this editing task? If so, please Email me!
IF it was Karen Hughes at the coffee chat a number of interesting questions emerge.
--Why didn't Thelma introduce her (as she did others in attendence)?
--Is Thelma's campaign in trouble?
--Does Thelma need this high powered consultant known as Karl Rove's "kryptonite?"
--Is Karen Hughes now being dispatched to the campaigns of needy Republicans?
--Does this conflict with her duties as Undersecretary of State and her work in the middle-east?
How important is Karen Hughes in the Bush camp? Allegeldy, Bush told Karen he would not run for president unless Hughes was on board for the campaign. She has been cited as his closest confidente. She runs George Bush's election campaigns and keeps George on message. Hughes is superb at developing the message. According to the Christian Science Monitor, Hughes focused on domestic issues and promoted compassionate conservatism while Rove focused on pushing the conservative agenda.
There's a comparison pic over at sparkle pony's blog SparkleponyBlog:annnnnd-more-karen-hughes Not the greatest but it's the best I can do until the video can be put online.

Ava Lowery brings back something we should never forget...
Ava Lowery does it again. Her latest video about Hurricane Katrina should be seen by all. You can see it here
Billions have been wasted and American citizens never got the assistance we have paid for. Lots of money was given to cronies such as Operation Blessing (put up on the FEMA website) and out of state companies like Cheney's favorite corporation--Haliburton.
It's SHAMEFUL that no one was held accountable for the rampant cronyism and incompetency. WE SHOULD NOT FORGET WHAT HAPPENED. WE SAW IT WITH OUR OWN EYES…
Start asking the incumbents why they have done nothing to see that the NOLA victims are helped. Why didn't they act to hold our federal officials accountable for the Katrina/Fema disaster.
Ask everyone what they plan to do about this should they be elected/re-elected to office in November.
No one is safe as long as FEMA is broken and our government remains stuffed with incompetent cronies.
No one is safe until we take action and make sure we always help our own people. We need to start now with the victims of Katrina.

Washington Post Declares Iraq is in Civil War
Finally the MSM is catching on. Better late than never.
The Washington Post states that Iraq is in Civil War.
I wonder how long the Bush regime will continue to use the term "sectarian violence?"
"Some say" that Washington is planning to forget democracy in Iraq and are working on a plan b to install a government that is "friendly" to Washington.....Washington has a bias for foreign dictatorships....when are they going to learn?

Tony Blair "betrayed" by George Bush
The Daily Mail says the Bush-Blair alliance is on shaky ground. The Daily Mail reports that Bush feels betrayed by Bush and Bush "has let him down badly over the Mideast crisis."
I have been let down by Bush so many times I no longer expect him to do anything right. Get used to it Blair. You were foolish to ever trust George Bush Jr.
Our few friends are getting fewer....

Billionaire's for Bush speak out on Drake--guest blog by K. Gore
Although it was only 10 a.m. on a hot Friday morning, Congresswoman Thelma Drake’s most grateful local supporters, Billionaires for Bush, were decked out in evening finery toasting their candidate with fluted champagne glasses in the parking lot of the Princess Anne Area Library in Virginia Beach as they awaited her arrival.
“Thelma has been the best return on any investment that I have ever made,” noted tux-attired Rob Da’Pour II, who claimed to be the CEO of a small family oil company. “Why for the $151 million that I and the 50 biggest corporations, such as AT&T and Exxon Mobile, have made in campaign contributions to legislators, we have been granted tax breaks worth over $55 billion. That’s 55 BILLION dollars!” Da’Pour chuckled while rubbing his hands together. “Why that’s better than a 36,323% return on investment!”
Nodding her head in agreement, Mrs. Iona Cenator noted, “Thelma Drake has fought hard for the repeal of the Death Tax which affects 8,000 of the wealthiest Americans. Without Thelma’s hard work, how could I be assured that my great, great, great, great grandchildren would live as well as I and my husband do without having to work hard?!” Mrs. Cenator smiled approvingly, “I owe so much to Rep. Drake for working so hard for her wealthiest constituents.”
Representing Virginia’s second congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives, Congresswoman Thelma Drake, is running for re-election against a member of a prominent Virginia Beach (VA) political family member and commissioner of revenue, Democrat Phil Kellam.
A virtual rubber stamp of the Bush policies, Drake has a record of voting with Bush 97% of the time, breaking rank only on such locally hot topics as beach sand replenishment.
Despite representing an area with a significant military presence, Drake has consistently voted against bills that would hold military contractors accountable, provide benefits and research for veterans, and adequately equip our men and woman to fight in Iraq and Afghanistan while Drake takes campaign contributions from defense industry lobbyists.
Deemed vulnerable for her voting record and funding from special interest groups, Drake has been the target of MoveOn.org T.V. ads emphasizing that the congresswoman has been caught red-handed accepting money from special interest groups and then voting favorably on their issues at the expense of her constituents.
To get out her message, Drake has been holding open meetings, “Coffee with Your Congresswoman,” across her district during her summer recess from Congress. At each of these, Drake has been challenged by MoveOn members waving large red foam hands with “Caught Red-Handed”; holding signs with such slogans as “Support Our Troops, not Halliburton” and “Caught Red-Handed; and distributing information.
The emphasis changed this past Friday at the Drake coffee being held at the Princess Anne Area Library in Virginia Beach. Rather than encountering unhappy constituents waving red foam hands outside, Drake found herself the object of a street theater satire as the local Billionaires for Bush attended to show their “support” for Drake.
Holding signs that read, “No Billionaire Left Behind,” “Government of, by, and for the corporations,” and “Survival of the Richest,” the Billionaires for Bush group cheered Rep Drake whenever she mentioned legislation she supports, such as drilling for oil off the Virginia Coast or preventing insurance plans offered under Part D of the Drug Prescription Plan of Medicare to bargain for a reduced rate on drugs as the Veterans Administration does.
The group also cheered wildly when Drake called the democratically elected President of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, a communist and enemy of the United States for nationalizing the country’s oil company in an attempt to build a viable middle class in the country.
Rep. Drake was deft in framing her answers that often were characterized by misdirection, side-stepping the issue, or claiming that she had no answer as she had only been a congresswoman for a year and a half. Another favorite response to questions whose answers might reflect unfavorably with those constituents who attended was to claim that she was not aware of the data that the person asking the question offered and would look into it.
Celebrating once again outside the library at the conclusion of the Coffee, the Billionaires expressed their pleasure at the congresswoman’s answers and their sense that they could count on her the next two years to significantly increase their profits and reduce their taxes if she were elected to another term.
“Yes,” Da’Pour’s wife, the beautiful Robin exclaimed, “Thelma is one of the best investments at any billionaire in Virginia can make!”

Friday's Coffee Chat with Thelma and the Billionaires for Bush entourage
A friend has promised me a dvd copy of a videotape that was taken of Thelma's coffee chat at Princess Anne Library on August 18th. Local Billionaires for Bush were in attendence. I did get to view the raw footage.
Rob du Pore and his wife Robin du Pore gathered a few friends to attend the event. Ahneeda Summore and Iona Senator were also among the B4B contingent. They are very happy with Thelma Drake's support for the Bush-Cheney administration policies.
Thelma fielded questions concerning medicare insurance from constituents who have been hurt by the policy and were unable to get help from her office when they called. Thelma promised to assist these people. She continues to support the Medicare drug program but fails to address the "no-bid" contract awarded to the pharmaceutical industry and how IF the government could negotiate for better drug prices this would benefit the medicare recipients and the American tax payer. There was also no mention of the fact that the pharmaceutical industry basically wrote the bill that was passed.
Drake defended the oil drilling off VA coasts and emphasized how clean the oil rigs are. She failed to address the issue the oil rigs will need land based infrastructure. The oil/gas leaks take place along the pipeline and at the storage tanks. LOts of spills occur when ships are being loaded. This is why the areas with oil rigs have kerosene placed outside hotel lobbies and on ground floor hotel rooms so that the tourists can clean the tar off of there feet.
Thelma did not mention that any oil and gas drilled at this time will go on the world market and the oil companies will achieve the major profit. IF the oil and gas stays in the ground it will only increase in value and would be a reserve that could be used in the future for America's needs if that desparate time should ever come.
At the end of the event the videotape shows one of Thelma's supporters assaulting Rob du Pore of the Billionaires for Bush entourage. He took some money that Rob left on Thelma's chair and snatched du Pore's hat off his head. He then BOPPED du Pore on the head with his money and smashed his hat back on his head. Rob du Pore told the man he has to back off and some were wondering if the Drake fan was going to escalate the situation into a brawl. Instead, he left the room quickly.

Iraq Is Falling Apart
The media has documented the 1,000 deaths in Lebannon this month. But 3,000 have died in Iraq without much of a whisper.
Bush says "stay the course" (look for a message change of "we need to adapt" and be "flexible") and as "they stand up" we'll stand down. Approximately, 1000 Iraqi policeman resigned recently from the Fallujah police force. So much for the stand up stand down Bush plans.
We should be accustomed to Bush's plans falling apart. Can you remember a single Iraqi Bush plan that has succeeded?
I'm sick of the loser. Bush and his cronies continue to amass wealth and sacrifice nothing as they continue to lose, lose, lose...and it's the average American left to pick up the pieces.
Of course one plan that is being promoted by others -- to break up Iraq into three separate entities--Kurdish, Shiite, and Sunni--has been vetoed by Bush. Our "unelected" president proves himself notta genius time and again. But Cheney has a different agenda that continues to get pushed and it does not involve peace in the Middle East (or anywhere wlse in the world)
Even the New York Times says that Iraq is balling apart.

George Allen used a known ethnic slur
George Allen's Macaque shows up in a list of ethnic slurs.
Macaque
(Belgium & France) a Negro (originally) or a person of North-African origin (more recently); derived from macaque monkeys
Here's the link
Ask anyone of Indian descent what Macaque means. They will probably know what this word means (especially if they've spent time in the Tunisian area or have lived abroad for a number of years).
Amazingly, enough the connections don't end here. Other blogs have pointed out that George's mother is French-Tunisian. George actually speaks French.
It seems reasonable to conclude that Allen knows and understands this term. It's Allen's excuses that are far-fetched.
I think he was counting on the fact that most Americans are not bi-lingual and French is not "often" the second language if they are bi-lingual. In VA, it's more likely the second language will be Spanish.
George, I think you've been caught red-handed with this one.
Buzz...Buzz...

Virginian Pilot Censorship
Dr.Disamodha Amarasinghe has been attempting to get the Virginian Pilot to run a story about DU--depleted uranium for months now. He has talked with editors and reporters about this topic.
The Virginian Pilot uses the AP wire service for much of its coverage. DU finally surfaces in the mainstream media via the AP. Yet, the Virginian Pilot did not run the story.
There is a news black out in Hampton Roads on this topic.
This topic is of crucial interest in the Hampton Roads area due to large numbers of servicemen stationed here who are directly effected by the DU issue.
AP story is here
DU is number 4 on The Top 25 Censored Media Stories of 2003-2004 on Project Censored's list. Check it out:
#4: High Levels of Uranium Found in Troops and Civilians
This is a story everyone needs to be aware of. Will American's stand for our service members to be exposed to such a deadly toxin...just so our shells can cut through armor like a hot knife through butter?
Don't let censorship leave you in the dark. Do your own research on depleted uranium.
