Our second cat that DreddsGirlfriend and I rescued from the feral realm is dying. It is the devastation cat cancer. She was doing very well, but death has some quickie reversal aspects to it. My heart is very scarred from the deaths I have seen in these wonderful pets I tried to save. I really would not mind being cremated at a pet crematorium, because I think that in many aspects animals are superior to humans. But it is an individual thing, some animals are full of hatred and ill will. Some humans too. But from the standpoint of warrior worshippers, who generally don't think that much of animals, this seems to be an extreme dis to them. I would not do that to a soldier, even tho I can never be one, so yes Brad, this is not left, it is right.

Talking about notm entioning something. This story made the news because the Sec. of Defnese is making sure this doesnt happen and will give the families of the fallen HEROS a choice and will pick up the tab. Brad, how do you sleep lying to people everyday?

Yours #2 You must learn to take things in context, and get a bit intahnashonal dude or dudette. For instance, these words:

Sue Scott plays all the female parts (Comodee or Comedy?) would cause some wrong wingers to cry "lesbian". Butt o reilly yours, its just a cowboy bond band.

Speaking of push ah and poll ah ... Joe "Zell Miller" Lieberman just checked out McFeign's family jewels (his "bearings") and announced that they were all there. Obama, if you remember, had suggested that McFiegn has "lost his bearings" by getting dirty and saying "Hamas wants Obama to win". Well, lets just hope the Scrotum Court headed up by the neoTurds (Scrotlea, et alia) don't have to squeeze out another erection (speaking Japanease of coarse).

Heros now hear this ... heros now hear this:

The man picked by the John McCain campaign to run the 2008 Republican National Convention resigned Saturday after a report that his lobbying firm used to represent the military regime in Myanmar. (McNews). What McFeign, the great white hope, uses lobbyists? Who but a great blogger would support that? You can't fool me on voting because you can fool me on McFeigh. Oh fuck off greenhorn. I was in jail for freedom before you stopped sucking your thumb bitch.

# 1 Dredd. "I think that in many aspects animals are superior to humans." I think I am beginning to agree. The world would get along just fine without us on it.

Maybe if we had left the Native Indians alone or allowed them to guide us...well who knows , maybe we would appreciate the land, the animals, and take wisdom from what they knew... but we took their children at the age of seven,(Canada) from their parents and put them in "English" schools, mostly Catholic, some died and were buried without the parents knowing where they are or even that they died. I don't resent our Native Indians not having to pay taxes. WE OWE THEM that at least. #2 Brad probably snores when he sleeps. like most of us over forty... We have to ask Desi.

Yourkidding #2, Yourwrong. The point is not about the crematorium but about the way that the news has been reported for the past 16 years. The military officials only said they would look into it, as reported below.

US war dead cremated in same facility as pets: Pentagon

Personally I think those that are both ignorant enough to not see through the blatant lies of the Bush administration and the ENTIRE 110th Congress and don't have the intestinal fortitude to simply say NO! to mass murder & the total destruction and eternal contamination by radiation of an entire country that has done nothing to us are actually the ones that are dishonoring the PETS not the other way around. When this all first started I had sympathy for the soldiers, I no longer do. How can anyone not expect such as this from the Bush administration?

These people are nothing but 21st century Nazi's.

"Conservative Media Begin Plans to Ignore Incident as Soon as Possible..." THAT is the most important sentence in here! We've got to expose that the corporate media is not "liberal" like the fascists' spokesmen have been paid to repeat!

How do we know that the pentagon has not been cremating untold numbers of US soldiers, who have no family to look out for them? How do we know they have really been reporting the truth about how many they have cremated. Judging from history, we know that the pentagon does not tell the truth. If it were only 200 soldiers, why did then need to use a pet cremation services. If they weren't doing anything sinister, why did they suddenly halt this when it came to light? Why does this scream Mob covering up the bodies to me??

In listening to the video of Morrell do his damage-control thing with this issue of a private funeral industry contractor contracting out to a pet mortuary to incinerate the remains of some of our dead Iraq war vets, I heard one of the press people ask, "What's insensitive about that? What's the problem there?" Anybody want to guess who owns that voice? I swear it sounds like Dana Perino. Also, I have an unrelated question: I remember watching the video at your site about the touch screens being manufactured in Asia, and I remember watching the video about the US company and its employees who refused to approve the hanging chad ballots that were used in PBC in 2000. Is this one video, or two? I can't remember. Please help me out.

Linda Search the archives for "Dan Rather". It should get you to the video in no time. Oh, here... faster....

Yes, 99, I have the link to the video about the touch screens being manufactured in Asia. What I'm asking is , does that video also contain the story about the company in America that manufactures paper ballots and whose employees refused to approve the ballots that were used by PBC in the 2000 election? I don't want to have to watch the whole video to find this answer, if I can help it. Thanks. {Ed Note: Yes. It has it. All of it. --99}

The specs for the punch holes in the ballots for that election were wrong. Employees complained. Were given some song and dance about adjusting for moisture affects. Inspectors at the company repeatedly nixed the bad batches, but the batches were put back into circulation anyway. Someone was determined to get bad ballots into Florida in 2000.

The logical result of a Republican administration's fetish for the destruction of government by "contracting out" shows up in the care of the remains of our fallen heroes in the flag drapped coffins the media "doesn't respect." in photographs.

Just imagine: you take your beloved recently deceased pet to be given a respectful cremation, and you get back a bag in a little box that is contaminated with radioactive residue from spent uranium fuel used as artillery shells in Iraq, because soldiers were cremated in the same furnace.

Watch the video, here's the guy's first answer to the question of why they are even apologizing, and did they or did they not cremate soldiers in a pet crematorium: "We have absolutely no evidence whatsoever at this point that any human remains were at.....at all, ever mistreated....were ever not cremated....were they were supposed to be cremated...ummmm...that said, the secretary believes that it is inappropriate....uhhhhh....even if though.....uhhhhhh.....permissible under the rules and regulations....aaaaahhhhhhhhh.......to cremate....urrrrr....ahhhhhh.....our fallen....OUR HEROES....IN A FACILITY THAT ALSO CREMATES PETS!"

He also says, in the beginning, "not co-located"...doesn't that crack you up when they make up these words and phrases? Did you EVER say "co-located" or "not co-located" or ever hear anyone in your LIFE ever say that???

I've heard the term "bi-located"... being in two places at one time.

'co-located' is actually used a lot in big corporations, for example: "Design engineering and planning are going to be co-located in the new building to facilitate coordination between the groups." That said, it seems a bit strange with the 'low fatality rate' that the repugnants think this war has cost that the military has resorted to pet-crematoriums. I suppose they were the lowest bidder, and thats the way the buck rolls.

Lets not forget the obvious, the military oil complex thinks that we are all their pets. But that is not the end of the story, because some of us really love and care for our pets. That is not what I mean, some people think animals are junk they can do whatever they want to to them whenever they want to. In short they treat pets soldiers like a red-headed step child.
