So, is Bushco threatening these people, or what?
Today, we saw the president of Coumbia U. standing on freedom of speech by inviting Ahmedinejad, then practically ambushing him on the stage DURING HIS INTRODUCTION. What the hell was that? Too much shit from the neocons? Regardless of what you think of him, why invite him and then be cruel? Don't invite someone to whom you are going to be cruel.

Earlier, we saw Sen. John Warner, R-Betrayus, do a number on our dem hero and fellow Virginian Sen. Webb. He even said:

But then, Warner explained how officials at the Pentagon had convinced him that Webb was wrong to try to extend troops' rest times. "I say to my good friend from Virginia, I agree with the principles that you've laid down in your amendment, but," he concluded, "I regret to say that I've been convinced by those in the professional uniform."

And we had Alan (Legend in his own mind) Greenspan backing off his Iraq was only for oil statement all weekend.

I may be wrong, but my spidey sense is picking up a little hammering of the kneecaps here.

1. Well, they certainly do a great job of keeping their people in line--John
Warner's betrayal of Webb was just sickening. I've heard Warner was known for using call girls--pretty good blackmail material there. Greenspan--don't know. How do you scare an 81 year old man?
