If you're not reading Ward Harkavy's "The Bush Beat" at The Village Voice, you're missing out on good writing and good info on the misadministration.
Today's column is titled "Bush's Fight for Human's Rights in Uzbekistan."
In smaller print it says, "The human was Enron's Ken Lay."
"Uzbek dictator Islam Karimov has put the lid on a rebellion, but it's just a matter of time before he gets burned so bad that he has to run for his life from a country that ranks in the world's top 10 in both natural wealth and torture.
While we're waiting for the 25 million angry and poor Uzbeks to come to a boil again, here's evidence that George W. Bush doesn't neglect human rights—at least when the human is one of his low friends in high places.
It's also proof that Bush has been nothing more than a puppet, a front man, for his entire public life.
In this case, the Señor Wences who pulled his strings was Enron's Ken Lay, Bush's single biggest campaign contributor."
http://www.villagevoice.com/blogs/bushbeat/Columns re: Galloway and Gitmo are still on the same page. I try to read it every few days so I don't have to read the archives.
Just for giggles, Harkavy puts in a lot of clickable phrases (like Senor Wences in the last sentence above.) Some are links to serious info but when I came to one that referred to Bush's codpiece, I just had to click it. There turned out to be several photos there -- anyone seen this before?
