We truly have the greatest army in the world. Israelis shot Mazen Dana three different times, and he survived. We only shot him one time, and he's dead, dead, dead. We should really be proud of our army. I mean, if a trained professional shoots a journalist, the journalist should be dead.
[Update: Yes, we're calling the IDF a bunch of underachieving, unmotivated conscripts, who couldn't kill a Palestinian journalist even when they got three tries. And we're calling Ariel Sharon a big fat ugly second-rate racist butcher. That is, second-rate at butchery. Bush beats Sharon on butchery by a Texas mile. Sharon, though, takes the "big fat ugly". Back when Sharon was killing Palestinians himself, did he just *sit* on them?]

"The incident is under investigation."
How can you tell when a US Army PR officer is lying?

Of *course* it was a big-time Bush contributor company that caused the blackouts. *All* energy companies are big-time Bush contributors.
But do all of them pressure their employees to pay up to Republicans? Probably.
Nothing to see here. Just move along.

Bush crony tax cuts: " Banking giant Citigroup, for example, just raised its annual dividend 75% to $1.40--very timely for CEO Sandy Weill, who is retiring from that role at the end of the year but is staying on as chairman. With a net worth of $1 billion, it's not as if Weill needs the money. Still, his 22 million Citi shares will spin off $27 million a year in after-tax income, up from $11 million."

Cheney, the anti-American tax cheat:
"In five of the six years while Cheney was CEO, the company received millions in federal tax reimbursements; the peak year was 1998, when it got back $302 million. During the same period, the number of its subsidiaries incorporated in offshore tax havens rose from 9 to 42."
