More on Howard Dean – "I was against the war, but I wasn't a protester."
My Dean rant continues, as I attempt to wake up the Amerisheep to who Dean really is. Read on. At this point, I'd almost vote for Kerry instead, since at least Kerry is up front about being right of center, about supporting Bush et al. But the likes of Dean try to trick everyone, and that's even worse.
As it is I'm voting Green. Hopefully Nader will run again. In CA, a recent poll of potential candidates in the governor recall election also put Green Party's Peter Camejo neck and neck with the most likely Republican candidate, even with ALL the newspapers ignoring Camejo's candidacy!

I don't believe this!!! - As if on cue!!
As President Bush works to quiet a controversy over his discredited claim of Iraqi uranium shopping in Africa, another of his prewar assertions is coming under fire: the alleged link between Saddam Hussein's regime and al-Qaida. WHEN SUDDENLY: A group claiming to be an Iraqi branch of al-Qaida said it is behind recent attacks on U.S. forces — not Saddam Hussein..

"There was no significant pattern of cooperation between Iraq and the al-Qaida terrorist operation," former State Department intelligence official Greg Thielmann said this week.
Intelligence agencies agreed on the "lack of a meaningful connection to al-Qaida" and said so to the White House and Congress, said Thielmann, who left State's Bureau of Intelligence and Research last September.

Since 9/11, corporate media have actively collaborated with the "faith-based" antichrist regime of George Bush in labeling "intelligence reports" as "evidence". After massacring uncounted thousands of people, the assholes finally admit the truth:
"Intelligence is not evidence," said Gregory Treverton, a former vice chair of the National Intelligence Council, which produces US security evaluations.
"The Bush administration has turned intelligence into evidence."

Administration's HIV/AIDS Initiative Is Disastrous Public Health Policy
The Bush AIDS initiative extends the administration's war on international family planning to HIV/AIDS prevention efforts in developing countries. One-third of the new AIDS prevention money for Africa will be directed to groups that take narrow and ineffective approaches to HIV/AIDS prevention by excluding condoms and relying on "abstinence-only" messages. These are precisely the policies pushed by the President's right-wing base.
