--- Oh, PLEASE be true.
I really need my weekly allotment of Stewie. I really, really do. I
also need the DVDs. --- Was watching Anderson Cooper last night as the
husband was preparing a fantastic Bolognese sauce. Anderson was
interviewing Jean Bertrand Aristide and a few minutes into the
interview, the husband came out into the living room and said, "Are you
watching this?"
Pretty interesting stuff,
if not straight out of the Delusion Files. Read the whole thing. The
U.S. kidnapped him, essentially, is Aristide's story. They made him
sign a document where an essential line was missing when it was
translated from Creole to French. Then they put him on a
plane---destination unknown until right before landing. Oh, and Colin
Powell is a liar. I found it telling that after the interview, Anderson
gave a quick thank you to the Reverend Jesse Jackson for arranging the
interview. Hmmm. What does that tell you about the veracity of
Aristide's story? I don't go to Democratic Undgerground very often, but this time I just couldn't resist the urge to see what they're saying about this. Of course Aristide is telling the truth. Why believe the coup leaders of 2000? They have no credibility, however, Aristide, of course, does. The thread that's the most interesting is that, according to this story, Baby Doc Duvalier wants to return to Haiti---but,
"Duvalier said in a television interview aired late on Monday, a day
after Aristide fled Haiti, that he had requested a diplomatic passport
several weeks ago, although he does not plan to run for president.
"That is not on my agenda," the 52-year-old former ruler, who has lived
in France since his forced exile in 1986, told WFOR-CBS4 television in
Miami. " So, someone automatically chooses to ignore what Baby Doc himself said, but says this instead.
So yet again the overwhelming message is that Bush and anyone in his
administration is automatically a liar and Aristide and Baby Doc
Duvalier are worthwhile sources of information simply because they're on the opposite side of the fence.
Oh, fer chrissakes. Your poor noggins are really catching too much of
that radiation the US is beaming down upon humanity from outer space.
Make sure your tinfoil hat is locked securely in place and doesn't have
any holes in it because we wouldn't want your poor gray matter to get more fried than it already is!
