Recent Bluessky Posts- Israel may notch some tactical successes with its aggressive policies against West Bank settlers, Gaza, Southern Lebanon, and of course maybe maybe Iran, but I foresee a major strategic defeat in the expansion & entrenchment of international pariah status plus loss of support (and $) from the US.

- So I know the USAO say that the error was not due to “lack of diligence and care” by the signing attorneys. If they’re underbussing the ICE attorneys I fully expect them to waive privilege between ICE counsel and the USAO on this, and for ICE counsel to testify about whether this was intentional.

So, what’s the Republican word for “flip-flop”?
Did anyone happen to see the documentary on Link TV (Direct TV subscribers only) called “Orwell Rolls in his Grave”?
http://www.worldlinktv.org/programming/programDescription.php4?code=orwell
“Director Robert Kane Pappas Orwell Rolls in his Grave is the consummate critical examination of the Fourth Estate, once the bastion of American democracy. Asking whether America has entered an Orwellian world of doublespeak where outright lies can pass for the truth, Pappas explores what the media doesnt like to talk about: itself.“
The film will air again Oct. 29 at 5pm & 11pm, and Oct. 30 at 5am & 12pm.
It gives the most honest look at politics and it’s incestual relationshop with the media I’ve ever seen.

Professior Froomkin, hope you are feeling better. I’ve been sick for over a week too. Perhaps a citation will raise your spirits. I linked to you in my most recent post.
I am too stupid to understand. I read it as Bush saying he will stay in Iraq but modify strategy over time. He is too stupid to say something that makes sense, so I must have misunderstood. Please explain to me, again, I am too stupid. Thank you.
