<li>&#8220;Well, President Bush is upset, very upset that the Iraqi parliament has failed any major legislation since taking office. I guess, of course, on the other hand, it made him feel right at home.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;Scientists in Russia have announced they will send a man to the moon by the year 2025. A defiant President Bush said today, &#8216;not if we get there first.&#8217;&#8221;</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1659716,00.html">In these days of degenerating decency</a>, we ought to be thankful for the one person who strives so hard and travels around the world to make us laugh. The world would have been a very dry place had Al Gore won in 2000. <strong><a target="_blank" href="http://tvmtalkies.com/archives/101">My Hero</a></strong>  - was in Sydney, Australia for the APEC Summit, a gathering of 21 countries, responsible for half the world’s trade. He started off by saying he was happy to be at the OPEC Summit.</p>
<p>If you can&#8217;t see the video, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.reuters.com/news/video/videoStory?videoId=65846&#038;newsChannel=newsOne">check out the Reuter&#8217;s link</a> (this is for real! the leader of the free world)</p>
<p>Again, as Conan O&#8217;Brien reported, &#8220;This week, President Bush met with Chinese President Hu Jintao, and Hu invited Bush to the 2008 Summer Olympics in China. Bush told the president, “I’m busy next year, but pencil me in for the 2009 Olympics.”</p>

What about you people, Mr. Wilson, what do you have?</p>

<p>Pfizer</span> announced Monday that it will cut 10,000 jobs and close five plants, including three R&amp;D sites and two factories, by the end of 2008. <span>Pfizer</span> reported that fourth-quarter sales were $12.6 billion, while net income surged 257 percent.</p>

<p>Hey, hey Uncle Sam<br />We remember Vietnam<br />We don&#8217;t want your I-raq war<br />Peace is what we&#8217;re marchin&#8217; for<br />We don&#8217;t want another war<br />Peace is what we&#8217;re marchin&#8217; for&#8221;</p>

<div style="text-align:center;">- Vietnam Veterans, Peace March on Washington, Jan 27, 2006</div>
<p>CNN and NYTimes imply there is a gradual leftward shift in US politics (after the far right days of &#8217;01) . FOX says the new legislature is leftist with San Fransisco values. I listen. Its not my job to analyse news, I pay for Advanced Cable.</p>
<p>

<p><span style="font-style:italic;">Tags from outside the speech, or as it seems to a couch news-freak, scavenger.</span></p>
<p>US is all about its foreign policy for the rest of the world, but foreign policy did not figure much in the agenda of the new Democratic Congress, the supposedly left leaning one. The much hyped tag <span style="font-weight:bold;">First 100 hours</span> wasn&#8217;t such a waste &#8211; Ethics reform, An increase in the federal minimum wage for the first time in 10 years, Enactment of the 9-11 commission&#8217;s recommendations, Expanded stem-cell research, <span style="font-weight:bold;">Government negotiation of prices with prescription drug companies, Student loan interest rates cut in half </span>and The elimination of billions in subsidies for big oil companies. Not bad for the first hundred hours &#8211; NYTimes calls it a <span style="font-weight:bold;">qualified success</span>. The United States has a mature democracy that comes home again and again after straying right or left. Which makes one feel, maybe the founding fathers got it right.</p>
<p>The tag <span style="font-weight:bold;">Speaker Nancy Pelosi</span> implies just one thing &#8211; the <span style="font-weight:bold;">Bush </span>Presidency is over. There is no point in discussing Bush anymore, he&#8217;ll be a lame duck keeping that chair in the Oval office warm till that cold January morning of 2009.With the rout the Republicans faced last November in both the House and the Senate and the overwhelming public opinion disapproving of his performance, you don&#8217;t need a Karl Rove to figure out that Bush&#8217;s only option is to buy time and then get out.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">President Hillary Clinton</span> or so it seems (blogger relies completely on Las Vegas bookies for future prediction; more on the &#8217;08 race later) will inherit Iraq for sure. But the tag <span style="font-weight:bold;">Adm William J Fallon</span> could be a trojan. The appointment of this Navy patriarch to head the Central Command (including the hotbeds Afghanistan, Iraq and Horn of Africa) has been ridiculed, as operations and combat in the region is overwhelmingly army. But this could be part of another broad move for more involvement in the Persian Gulf (Iran &#8211; the obvious target) and Somalia (which was bombed last week). The war has to go on somewhere.</p>
<p>Iran -an armed intervention by the US in <span style="font-weight:bold;">Iran </span>seems unlikely, but that prediction is based completely on the mood of the nation, opinion of experts and the stand of the legislators &#8211; three things Bush really don&#8217;t care about. Will Israel unilaterally make a move against Iran, which threatens its existence quite vocally. Quite possible, but in that case, conflict in the middle-east will reach a level never seen before with a total realignment of forces stretching from Beirut to Kashmir.</p>
<p><span style="font-weight:bold;">Israel &#8211; Palestine </span>; Condi Rice will not accomplish anything in the mid-east even if the Bush Administration changes its &#8220;Dont give a damn about Palestine&#8221; stand. Because Israel and Palestine have their weakest leaders in history now &#8211; Ehud Olmert (with the least popularity ratings of any Israeli leader) and Abbas who is more concerned about his life. Other than that, there will be an overall lack of support for any bold political moves in the middle-east or Iran or North Korea, with Japan and France going into elections,Tony Blair retiring and US public opinion hovering around Iraq and nothing else.</p>
<p>In the few minutes they have between news and opinions on the War, the media rages on <span style="font-weight:bold;">immigration and Racism in the US</span>. Paula Zahn *She&#8217;s got the most genuine look and the most pretty face in Prime-time news* follows the Duke rape case and the LA gang wars hinging on the racist side of this nation. But no one crying over immigration seems to mention the fact that this country is 80% white and it will remain so. It is more like Hindu fundamentalists in India crying over the higher growth rate of the Muslim population &#8211; while being completely unaware of the actual figures. And in the US, no one crying over race seems to mention or want to change the fact that cities like Detroit and Michigan and almost all major retirement destinations in Florida are 70-80% segregated in terms of housing. Which means , if  you are a white kid, chances are that you wouldn&#8217;t see a black kid anywhere near your house. And this is the America of 2007.</p>
<p>Back to politics, the Bush presidency will die out into insignificance in the days to come, as  T S Elliot put it, &#8216;not with a bang, but with a whimper&#8217;, while USA will survive, bringing glory and disrepute to the human kind with their <a href="http://www.thenation.com/doc/19471018/sartre">huge complex of myths, values, recipes, slogans, figures, and rites</a> &#8211; the height of which one will see this coming Tuesday in Miami when the Bears  meets the Colts for the crowning glory. Because USA is not just a melting pot, its a Super Bowl.</p>
<p>Good Night and Good Luck !</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>George Bush has coined the new term &#8216;Islamo Fasicm&#8217;. The new rhetoric is going around with the punch line that if you do not support the War in Iraq ,if you do not support the invasion of Lebanon and if you do not support the bombing plans for Iran &#8211; you are a supporter of Fasicm . The rhetoric is very similar to the &#8220;either you are with us or against us&#8221; doctrine advocated by the Republican administration immediately after the &#8217;01 invasion of Afghanistan.</p>
<p>Comparisons are being made wherever possible to the War against Fasicm in WWII &#8211; repeated over and over in press conferences,  policy statements,University addresses and the right-wing &#8216;fox&#8217; media. It might appear attractive to a world blinded by the fear of Islamic terrorism and its global derivatives but on a closer look there are a few very subtle differences between Europe in 1940s and Iraq in 2005.</p>
<p>1. Germany,Japan and Italy were countries trying to take over the world and had invaded other nations making a war inevitable. Iran and Iraq had no plans to take over the world ; They never declared war on USA ; Iran never invaded another country.</p>
<p>2. Allied forces in WWII had more than two thirds of humanity behind it . &#8220;Alliance of the willing&#8221; in Iraq has a coalation strength less than the fingers on one hand .</p>
<p>3. America&#8217;s participation in WWII was approved and supported by almost every American, latest polls put support to war in Iraq or plans to invade Iran at less than thiry percent.</p>
<p>4. America&#8217;s sacrifices in WWII made the world a safer place,its invasion of Iraq has made the free world a lot lot more vulnerable.<br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism"><br />Wickipedia</a> defenition of Fascism says &#8211; Fascism is a radical totalitarian political philosophy that combines elements of <span style="font-weight:bold;">corporatism, authoritarianism, extreme nationalism, militarism, anti-anarchism, anti-communism and anti-liberalism</span>.</p>
<p>And look who&#8217;s Fascist going by that &#8211; <a href="http://oldamericancentury.org/14pts.htm">The 14 Commandments of Fascism</a></p>
<p>Dear Mr.Bush , movie-makers in hollywood invoke Hitler and the Nazi party to sell holocaust movies -thats for a living , but should the most powerful man on the planet start imitating<br /><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Goebbels">Joseph Goebbels</a> for a living .</p>
