Ah, but the irony abounds in this article...

"MOSCOW — Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice met Saturday with beleaguered Russian human-rights activists to encourage them to build institutions of democracy to combat arbitrary state power amid increasing pressure from the Kremlin."

"Before going in to a closed-door meeting with the leaders, Rice said she hoped their efforts would be successful in promoting universal values of "the rights of individuals to liberty and freedom, the right to worship as you please, and the right to assembly, the right to not have to deal with the arbitrary power of the state."

Perhaps, we should get a group of American human-rights activists to speak with the Russian Secretary of State.

Just sayin'...

Iran's Parliament votes to designate the CIA and the US Army a terrorist organization.

I never expected to hear back from Mr. Atkinson when I posted an email to him yesterday. After reading his unbelievably insane article about slaughtering Iraqis, (possibly with nuclear weapons), so we can move Americans there, and then make little george "President for Life" of the whole world, because GWB is not only the smartest, most insightful man the world has ever known, but the only person that can save us from nuclear Armageddon at the hands of all the terrorists we've created in the last couple of years.

I had one question from him, "Are you fucking crazy?"
