Pictured on the the left is $206 million in cash that DEA agents recently siezed during raids in border towns in Mexico. It looks like a lot of cash, but >>> "Nearly $9 billion of money spent on Iraqi reconstruction is unaccounted for because of inefficiencies and bad management"
CNN Jan 5, 2007

If you take this huge pile of cash and think of it as a pile 40 times larger, this is how much U.S. tax payer money went to ... well no one knows, except for maybe Al' Queda in Iraq since you can bet they got a big piece of this cash. Awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom Yale and Havard "Skull and Bones" chum of Bush (and Kerry for that matter), Paul Bremmer, let this happen on his watch, under his instruction.

We should all want to know "how the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) could have shipped $12 billion in cash from the Federal Reserve in New York to Baghdad and handed it over to Iraqi ministries with only the sketchiest accounting controls. The cash, all 363 tons of it, was shrink-wrapped into $400,000 bricks and carried on C-130 cargo planes."

"Who in their right mind would send 363 tons of cash into a war zone?" Senator Waxman asked. And with limited oversight, he said, "we have no way of knowing whether the cash shipped into the Green Zone ended up in enemy hands." - Seattle Times Wednesday, February 7, 2007

Maybe Attorney General Alberto Gonzales can authorize sending some goons out to put a bag over Bremmer's head and water board him until he confesses to funding the insurgents in Iraq and planning 9-11, since the planes did kill 295 of his employees in his offices in the World Trade Center in Sept. of 2001. Very suspect, lets warantlessly tap his phones.

But that would be unjust, unfair, and just plain wrong. In America we don't do these things ...

Christians find your voice

Reading the news I discover: Faith's battlefield: "Pop culture faces a controversial assault in San Francisco this weekend when Ron Luce aims to bring 22,000 evangelical Christian teenagers closer to Jesus " This fake culture war has nothing to do with the reality for having faith. The leader Luce says, "Evangelicals have been too passive about protecting teens from cultural pollution." I think that is the least of their worries.

My own suspect christianity has been tested throughout my life, but one thing is clear. The neo-con criminals in power are not Christians. If the scripture is to be literally believed as their brainwashed minions would have. Satan is in control of human governments. I can really believe that.

Luke 4:5-7: The devil led him up to a high mountain and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, "I will give you all their authority and power, for it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish. So if you worship me, it will all be yours."

"Throughout the Gospels Jesus was faced with liars and hypocrites. Direct, open, and honest, Jesus condemned these people and called them what they were, liars and hypocrites." Later Jesus says:

Luke 4:8: Jesus answered, "Get behind me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.'"

So if you are a Christian conservative and reading this, you need to take a real close look at what you actually believe.

I personally am not sure about faith in general and certainly not such a literealist as these self annoited crackpots that are falsely calling themselves evangelical. The actual meaning is a belief in the scripture, especially the 4 gospels. Then read Luke on this.

Watching the recent documentary on HBO "The Ghosts of Abu Ghraib" I was struck by the absolute and undeniable evil of these supposed Christians. It is as appaling as, no maybe even more appalling than the fake Islamists that are killing innocents in suicide bombs, at least they have the decency to kill themselves so they can't go on to continue killing more innocent people.

More proof that we live in the most morally corrupt period in recent history. Let us pray, but let us not forget to act, as well.
