RW Extremists gear up Lie Machine against Kerry for Monday

They are lying about his effort to bring up the Downing Street Minutes. They are claiming that he is bringing up Impeachment. (I wish) Anyway, just a heads up.

1. They must be scared
Believe it or not, this is actually good news. It means he's right on target, and they are running scared.

2. I agree!!!
Check out the item I just posted on the Downing Street thread - what the Rude Pundit wrote today. I think he's right on target. And if he is, Kerry's footsteps must be ringing in their lying ears right now.

Hear the echo of Nixon's humiliation, fellas??

6. pulp fiction time!
Gangsters Bush and Cheney, stand together at midnight on a lonely street corner, bathed in the hazy glow of a lone streetlight, collars turned up against a drizzle of rain. Rove's car is due to pick them up and get them out of the country with fake passports. Cheney grinds the stub of a cigarette into the pavement with his heel. They look up, startled, to peer down the dark street toward the sound of footsteps--tap, tap, tap, tap--the sound getting faster and faster as it approaches the two villans.
It's their old foe, Detective John Kerry, coming up fast, gun drawn, face set with a look of grim intensity. No time to get out their guns. They turn to run, to dash into the nearest dark alley like the rats they are, but they stop short: he's got them surrounded. Plainclothes cops peer around the corners of buildings at every possible route of escape. A squad car comes screeching around the corner with cherry-lights flashing. Cheney turns to Kerry and sneers, and Bush puts on a deer-in-the-headlights expression. Looks like it's curtains,boys, the end of the road: buddy-boy Rove won't be fixing it for them this time. He's already behind bars.

3. Bangor (Maine) Daily News calls for impeachment
Check out this op-ed column in the Bangor Daily News. They rip a few new assholes for BushCo.

Administration's offenses impeachable
Thursday, June 02, 2005 - Bangor Daily News

Let's consider an item from the news of about two weeks ago:

A British citizen leaked a memo to London's Sunday Times. The memo was of the written account of a meeting that a man named Richard Dearlove had with the Bush administration in July 2002. Dearlove was the head of the England's MI-6, the equivalent of the CIA. On July 23, 2002, Dearlove briefed Tony Blair about the meeting. He said that Bush was determined to attack Iraq. He said that Bush knew that U.S. intelligence had no evidence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and no links to foreign terrorists, that there was no imminent danger to the U.S. from Iraq. But, since Bush was determined to go to war, "Intelligence and facts are being fixed around the policy." "Fixed" means faked, manufactured, conjured, hyped - the product of whole cloth fabrication.

So we got aluminum tubes, mushroom clouds imported from Niger, biological weapons labs in weather trucks, fear and trembling, the phony ultimatums to Saddam Hussein to turn over the weapons he didn't have and thus couldn't. We got the call to arms, the stifling of dissent, the parade of retired generals strategizing on the "news" shows, with us or against us, flags in the lapel, a craven media afraid to look for a truth that might disturb their corporate owners who would profit from the war. Shock and Awe. Fallujah. Abu Ghraib.

It was all a lie. Many of us have said for a long time it was a lie. But here it is in black and white: Lies from a president who has taken a sacred trust to uphold the Constitution of the United States.

4. this is SO sweet.

Kerry's gonna have a real army at his back on Monday. They must be scared to death.

BushCo lies exposed since November? - lost count

Kerry predictions come true since November? lost count there, too

And that article on the FRONT PAGE of the NY Times today titled Growing Problem for Military Recruiters: Parents. As the mother of three young musicians I was particularly touched to read this:

    Orlando Terrazas, a former truck driver in Southern California, said he was struck when his son told him that recruiters were promising students jobs as musicians. Mr. Terrazas has been trying since September to hang posters at his son's public school to counter the military's message.

Hang 'em high.

5. Another newspaper publishes DSM
The Minneapolis Star-Tribune published the DSM today. Is that a camel's back I hear fracturing?

9. Thanks for putting these links up, Rox.
It's a good way to tally the response building to the DSM - AND to Kerry's comments last week.
