Warning: PNAC Is Back! (Guess Who They Want To Help Them Regain Power?) & Bush Wants To Write A Book

[ihavenobias]

Thanks to Hissyspit for posting this explaining (hilariously IMO) that the Project for a New American Century is back.

This is the group of neocons that somehow hijacked the Republican Party (maybe hijacked is too kind a word, depends on your perspective) and convinced them to be extra crazy on foreign policy. You know, invading countries that didn't attack us, etc.

You'd think they'd have gotten the message by now that we collectively and generally don't WANT to keep invading these countries, but they haven't, and they're looking to make a comeback behind an "interesting" person.

PS---While a potential neocon comeback isn't good news, at least we can take comfort in the fact that . And if that doesn't cheer you up just consider that . What kind of book do you think it'll be?

BONUS Question: If you like Rachel Maddow, Michael Moore, John Cusack, Bernie Sanders, Jonathon Alter, David Sirota, Margaret Cho, Marcy Wheeler or Darcy Burner, why haven't you checked out the new show yet?

1. They never went away in the first place, did they???

The Conservatives have the Media doing their talking points.
"This was not about Conservatism" This was about an unpopular
President and a financial crisis. "This is not about Left V Right
It is about Right v Wrong." Guess who they think is wrong---you guessed
it --Democrats.

We had best keep an eye on the conservatives in our own party.

[ihavenobias]

2. Actually, they kinda did if you watch the video. They shut down their main website and

now it's back up.

Also, I agree that the .

And they're trying to portray .

[fed_up_mother]

5. Yes! They want Sarah Palin because she'll be even easier to control than George Bush!

SCARY.

13. Hopefully we'll see all those names on arrest warrants a few months from now.

Wouldn't that be nice.

[bdamomma]

32. no way should these criminals be able to re group again

they are our homegrown terrorists.

[Ghost in the Machine]

35. That would be a great day for America... ranking right up there with 11-04-08

:hi:

[PassingFair]

37. Madeline Albright?

I am only slightly surprised.

[defendandprotect]

22. Schumer ran off the rails a long while back + recently gave us Mukasey ...!!

Or maybe he began to feel confident in revealing who he really is...???

[Ghost in the Machine]

36. Yep, he really pushed Mukasey on us, didn't he?

It amazes me that people can't see what has become of our government. It's totally infested with operatives filled with bad intentions who wish to destroy our democracy.

Hang 'em ALL!

[ihavenobias]

25. Thanks for the list n/t

[Ghost in the Machine]

38. My pleasure.... n/t

[Ghost in the Machine]

9. Lee Feinstein & Richard Holbrooke

Lee Feinstein & Richard Holbrooke
Clinton ties:

Lee Feinstein

"Hillary's foreign-policy coordinator, Lee Feinstein, a scholar at the Council on Foreign Relations, also says no threats are being made. Feinstein was brought on in August specifically to do "outreach"—to bring in foreign-policy experts to counter the Obama recruitment effort. And, he says, there is no cause for jealousy: Hillary has scores of former officials from her husband's administration advising her."
http://www.newsweek.com/id/40772

Richard Holbrooke

"The main Hillary enforcer has been Richard Holbrooke, Bill Clinton's former U.N. ambassador (and an aspiring secretary of State), says a senior adviser to Obama, who would also discuss personnel matters only anonymously."

(from the list in the last post...)

[Justitia]

6. oh I am so happy to hear about Adelson (Venetian Casino) going bankrupt!

He funded the nastiest RW smear jobs and donated boatloads of cash to promote foreign wars.

He is subhuman, I hope he loses absolutely everything.

Maybe someone will buy his Vegas Venetian properties and then I can go back there.

[ihavenobias]

29. Amen n/t

[OhioChick]

10. K&R

:kick:

[Initech]

11. Is Bush writing the sequel to "My Pet Goat"?

[Dangerman]

14. If justice will have anything to do about it...

Bush will be instead writing prison memoirs.

:mad:

[ihavenobias]

31. Yes, apparently it's a coloring book

;)

[fascisthunter]

12. PNACers Should Be Tried for Conspiring to Invade Iraq

and using lies to do so. The cost of their mania has killed over a million people in Iraq, American and Iraqi. It has also bankrupted our Treasury...

and I don't give a damn if a few of them are Dems. They should ALL be tried.

[ihavenobias]

41. I can't argue too much with that n/t

[codjh9]

15. George's book: "See How George n' Dick Fucked Up the Country"

[FatDave]

18. It's a pop-up book.

But none of the pop-ups actually work. Nobody could have anticipated that tab would be pulled.

[old mark]

16. With Bush soon being unemployed, he'll have a lot of time

to learn to write. Would be good to learn to read, too.

[lunatica]

19. Yeah, and pigs with lipstick fly... n/t

[ihavenobias]

42. Amen n/t

[Seldona]

20. "In what respect Charlie?"

They may try to make themselves politically relevant, but it will be to no avail. Repubs have been all but tossed out on their asses in the last 2 major elections. Unless we screw it up, the ball is in our court.

We may not have made 60 in the Senate, but there are other options. Isn't it ironic that George Bush and Dick Cheney worked for a Unitary Executive, only to hand the whole ball of wax over to the Democratic Party? That has got to just keep them up nights, to say the least.

:rofl:

[Azlady]

21. K&R

[lonestarnot]

24. I figured there was some reason this pig wasn't going away.

:puke: K & R

[joeunderdog]

26. As Steven Colbert said to MR. Kristol...

"Hows that New American Century goin' for ya?"

[Initech]

27. You mean future prisoner #49823841029?

Sorry but I hesitate to believe that PNACers do not have a shred of human decency in them.

[LeftishBrit]

28. Someone already wrote Bush's books for him...

See "Tony and Me" and "This is War" by Dr. Parsons. Two picture-books, supposedly containing Bush's descriptions of his life, triumphs and problems for his therapist, and written, spelled and illustrated in the style of a primary school child! Recommended!

[and-justice-for-all]

30. Well, we will just have to make sure they dont have a 'Come Back."

Keep in mind, they are out numbered and we have to work collectively to keep it that way.

[bdamomma]

34. they need to be arrested.

scary bunch of people? if that is what they are.

[and-justice-for-all]

39. PNAC can be lethal,,,

we just have to be vigilant in regards to those people involved in the PNAC. I think of such organizations as sleeper cells, domestic terrorist.
