Subject: Gonzales and the mysterious arrest

Hey, Lisa,

Below is a portion of Attorney General Gonzales' 2/21 press conference on the Ohio terrorism indictments:

QUESTION: General, was Amawi arrested in Jordan and brought back here?

ATTORNEY GENERAL GONZALES: Again, I'm not going to talk about facts that are not set forth in the indictment.

QUESTION: You can't say where he was arrested?

ATTORNEY GENERAL GONZALES: I'm not -- unless it's set forth in the indictment relating to specific facts about this investigation, I can't talk about it.

I'm betting the guy was arrested in the UAE. What do you think?

I watched that press conference. Gonzales was not being forthcoming. I find it hard to believe the Attorney General of the United States would not know where Amawi was arrested.

What do I think?  I think I generally believe the opposite of whatever this administration says. 

Here's a news clip you may be interested in:

The brother said he assumed Mr. Amawi was still in Jordan, where the family's father also lives. But he said federal authorities told the family yesterday that Mr. Amawi had been arrested in Jordan and flown back to Cleveland.

Mr. Amawi's brother said his brother was born in Washington, and is an American citizen.

Boiled Rice

On the other side of the globe, Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez, on his weekly television show, responded to Rice's recent charge that he represents a "challenge to democracy." Deliberately mispronouncing her name as "Condolences," the feisty Venezuelan leader warned Washington's top diplomat: "Don't mess with me, girl."

Subject: Sale of port operations

There are a lot of people out here who have heard the Republican and Democratic politicians are going to introduce legislation to delay the sale. Talk radio will of course support whatever is the pleasure of the "King"
The American people should get off their butts and take the time to click on this link http://www.house.gov/writerep/  to write their Representative.
Let them know we are THINKING FOR OURSELVES and it is not what the people on "talk radio" are telling us to think.

I thought I had a lot of emails about Dick Cheney shooting a man in the face but this port sale is quickly taking the top spot on AHNC.

A Who's Who of Republican heavy hitters and Bush administration supporters are lending their names to help raise $5 million for the defense of Vice President Cheney's former top aide in his criminal trial.

Led by Florida real estate magnate and former ambassador Mel Sembler, the group seeking to help I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby avoid jail time includes 26 notable names, many of whom could also be described as "Friends of George and Dick."

Subject: Mondays NOOKLEAR Cartoon

Lisa,

I really enjoy All Hat No Cattle, and check it daily for hilarious laughs. You do wonderful work.

Wish you might go back to the February 20, cartoon of w saying "NOOKLEAR" and write it as "NOOKULUR", which is the way he mispronounces it. He can't even say "nooklear".

And don't forget that the twit can't pronounce "tearris" and "Murika".
This has to be the worst regime ever in the history of our country. The
schizophrenic nature of these beasts, the rhetoric, propaganda, power
broking, and treatment of women's rights are blatantly fascism and we
don't  know what has hit us yet. I know what you mean, if it weren't for your
web site and other ways to laugh, I don't know how I could get through it,
either.

We are farmers and have seen a lot, but these SOBs are the
worst ever. My husband says "Nixon made a Democrat out of me, Reagan made it
for life, and this little bastard makes me want to tattoo Dem on my
forehead".
Although we admit, the Dems are so impotent it makes us nauseated.

I hope both Bush and Cheney are impeached because the latter is evil
incarnate and the former is the antiChrist...so we are in deep doo doo
with either of them. Would love to see them in the dock and tried for war
crimes and imprisoned for the rest of their lives. I have known little
spoiled rich boys like w, haven't you? And I've known hard shelled pigs like
Cheney, too. Deliver us.

Later,

Marilyn

Hi Marilyn,

Excellent idea...ask and ye shall receive. I have just reposted the toon with your spelling.

Thank you so much for writing.

I am so glad that my readers are smarter than me. Tell your husband he gives good quote.
