on crappy news

so, Al-Qaqaa. yep, it is what it sounds like. caca. as in cacapoopy.

the bush administration began yesterday trying to spin it that maybe the weapons were hidden before the us invaded, and that they were already gone when troops arrived. today's times shows that the us troops who were first at the storage facility did not look for the weapons. the commander of the unit didn't even know it was a sensitive site. does this not show us, people, that the UN and the IAEA inspectors knew what they were doing? i think bushco owes them a friggin apology. this site was highlighted as the most important site to guard in the us invasion. no one visited it to check for weapons for more than 7 weeks after the invasion. and bloggers are saying that removing 380 tons, which is about 3/4 of a million pounds, is more than "looting." it's not like guys were running out with a tv from circuit city. it probably took a lot of effort to move that much stuff. so why weren't we on top of it?

vote suppression. surprise! 60,000 absentee ballots missing in broward county.
