French Emabassador: Halliburton had hand in Oil for food cookie jar

French Emabassador: Halliburton had hand in Oil for food cookie jar

...France fully supports the independent inquiry set up by the U.N. The truth must come out. Was France a major beneficiary of oil-for-food contracts, as several conservative columnists have claimed recently? Definitely not. From the beginning of the program to its end, French contracts accounted for 8% of the total. We were Iraq's eighth-largest supplier. In addition, throughout the program a sizable proportion of the contracts dubbed "French" were in fact contracts from foreign companies using their

French branches, subsidiaries and agents. Among them were U.S. firms providing spare parts for the oil industry (including several subsidiaries of Halliburton). They submitted contracts through French subsidiaries for more than $200 million. It is also suggested that the money from the oil-for-food contracts passed exclusively through a French bank, BNP Paribas. Wrong again: 41% of the money passed through J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, which, like BNP, was contracted by the U.N. with the approval of Security Council members.

This leaves us with one remaining accusation: that the French positions on the oil-for-food program and Iraq in general were driven by the lure of oil. Yet France was never a major destination for Iraqi oil during the program. In 2001, 8% of Iraqi oil was imported by France, compared with 44.5% imported by the U.S., which was the No. 1 importer all along.

The Gospel of George W. Bush

The Gospel of George W. Bush

by Denise Giardina - Charleston Gazzete

AND HE TAUGHT them, saying:

1. Blessed are the rich, for they have more than they need and still
they take with such joy.

2. Blessed are those who mourn, for their numbers shall multiply.

3. Blessed are the meek, especially the liberals, for they will not
stand up to me.

4. Blessed are those who hunger for righteousness, for they may wish in
one hand and spit in the other and see which one fills the fastest.

5. Blessed are those who are not merciful, for they shall laugh upon
those without health insurance.

6. Blessed are the pure in ideology, for they shall promote religious
fascism.

7. Blessed are the warmongers, for they shall control the world’s resources.

8. Blessed are those who persecute, for they shall trample upon the
First Amendment.

9. Blessed are you when you are an abject failure, yet people still
think you’re doing a fine job.

10. Blessed are you when you base your policies upon a fundamentalist
interpretation of scripture. You violate the consciences of millions of
Americans. But they’re going to Hell anyway.

11. Blessed are the undecided and those who don’t vote, for you allow me
to get away with murder.

12. Blessed are the Americans, for God loves us better than anyone else.

13. Jesus said, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” But
I tell you, do unto others before they do unto you. And be sure to use
cluster bombs.

14. If you are offering your gift at the altar, and then remember that
your brother has something against you, have your friends run as many
untruthful TV ads as they can. And do not fear to lie, for if you do it
often enough, you shall be believed.

15. And if anyone oppose you, yea even if they wear an insulting
T-shirt, shake the dust of your shoes in their face, have them arrested,
fire them from their job and confine them in a pen called a free speech
zone where they may enjoy their freedom in security. Also make certain
your friends in the TV media ignore their point of view.

16. Jesus said, “But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman
lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.” But I
say that is ridiculous, for it means I’m as bad as those awful
homosexuals. Jesus didn’t say anything about them. Perhaps that’s a gap
in the record, like my National Guard service.

17. Jesus said if anyone would sue you and take your coat, let him have
your cloak as well. But I say to you, tell the lazy bum to get three
minimum wage jobs. That’s why we have three shifts.

18. Lay up your treasures on earth, for if you have a lot, you will be
eligible for a big tax cut. And I shall let you keep your money for your
own benefit, not give it to a bunch of stupid old people on Social
Security. I may even figure out a way you can take your treasure to
heaven with you, if Dick Cheney tells me what it is.

19. Jesus said, “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute
you.” (Do you ever wonder if Jesus was smoking some of that stuff I got
hold of back in the ’70s?) But I say, “Bring ’em on!” Bring on all the
Arabs and the U.N. and the cowardly French and Germans and Russians and
the Canadians and the wimpy liberals and even the New York Yankees! Who
cares if they hate us as long as they fear us! Veni, vidi, vici! (Bet
you didn’t think I know Latin.)

20. You, therefore, must be perfect, as I am perfect. As I said in a
recent press conference, I can’t think of a single mistake I’ve made.
And I thank my Father, who makes sure that no matter what I do, I get
away with it.

W is for Wired or Our Milly Vanilly President

From the Kerry/Edwards board:

I was skeptical at first when I heard this rumor but after seeing
several shots of President Bush at the first debate, it should be
obvious to all that the pucker on the back of his tailored $8,000 suit
is not a natural one like the other ones that occur where his arm is
folded, etc.

Check out these embarrassing moments when the puppet handler (Rove?) for
Bush, accidentally gets busted and broadcast in the following CNN news
segment.
http://www.canofun.com/blog/videos/BushAndTheOddSync.wmv

The following Fox News footage inadvertently catches & broadcasts the
voice telling Bush what to say...before Bush says it. Bush clearly looks
uncomfortable but stays the course. Watch the expression on Chirac's
face. (Note download takes 2-3 minutes but very telling of our
MilliVanilli president!)

The White House has already stated that President Bush does not have a
hearing problem and have "laughed off" the suggestion that he was wired.
They also confirmed that President Bush was NOT wearing a security vest
underneath his suit. I believe the national media is remiss if they do
not scrutinize this cheating tactic more closely. This is important for
American voters to know the truth. Either Bush can level with Americans
and talk intelligently about the issues and his record or we need to
know whether he has been getting covert assistance during these debates.
Should President Bush's team be challenged in advance of the 3rd and
final debate, I predict they will cancel it! Question is, will the
mainstreem press do their job or treat Bush with kid gloves on this one??

Cheater!!!!
