Insurgent attack frees hundreds from Kandahar prison: Jun 14, 11:15am 2 reviews politics
http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2008/06/13/afghanistan-prison.html; From the page: "But Wali Karzai, president of Kandahar's provincial council and the brother of President Hamid Karzai, said "all the prisoners escaped. There is no one left."

About 1,170 inmates were believed to have been in the prison and may now be roaming the streets of Kandahar city, Hunter said.

Canadian Forces are in command of Kandahar, and most of the roughly 2,500 Canadian troops in Afghanistan are stationed there.

The prison, the largest detention facility in Kandahar province, housed both common criminals and captured Taliban militants who had been fighting NATO troops and the Afghan government.

"It's a big blow. It's a very significant development," said CBC's Susan Ormiston, who visited the prison last April."

Right Side News - Its not about saving the planet its about control: Apr 26, 11:02pm 1 review socialism, global-warming
http://www.rightsidenews.com/20080419765/editorial/it-s-not-about-saving-the-...; I don't like this site. Stumble should change 'I Like It' to 'popularize' or something just because of cases like this. This guy explains to you why global warming is a hoax and mankind cannot exert enough influence on the planet to change climate. I disagree with this in the first place, but what right-wingers really need to understand are the ECONOMIC BENEFITS of reducing our national dependency on oil. Not only would we stop giving dollars to regimes we regard as "terroristic" *whatever that means* we would reduce the harmful emissions released into the air that you are breathing right now. We need to shift the emphasis about global warming from saving the planet to economics, and let that goddamn "free market" entice all those republicans into saving our asses.

Daily Kos: A dead woman in Joe Scarboroughs office? Am I the last to know?: Apr 20, 11:38pm 1 review politics
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/3/20/74312/7031; From the page: "The strange death of Lori Klausutis received only a few short stories in the Northern Florida press; and the Washington Post printed only 44 words in a Nation-in-brief report dealing with the covered up and mysterious death of a female staffer in a Republican congressman's district office--a story that shocked us after hearing about it from federal agents because the revelation was kept from the public. The 44 words released were:

"FORT WALTON BEACH, FL--Lori Klausutis, a 28-year-old office worker for Rep. Joe Scarborough (R-FL), was found dead in the congressman's district office. Police said preliminary findings from the medical examiner's office showed no foul play or any outward indication of suicide."

Curiously, Klausutis was reportedly active in Florida's Bush v. Gore 2000 election recount activity--raising questions about what she knew; and on Friday, July 20th, 2001, her body was found slumped next to a desk on the floor of Scarborough's Fort Walton Beach office where Lori served as a constituent services coordinator since May, 1999.

Klausutis was found around 8:00 a.m. on Friday morning by a couple arriving for an appointment, and she had been dead for some time as the police cordoned off the office for an investigation; but they later announced that there was no reason to suspect foul play, nor were there signs of suicide--but national news outlets commenced a total television blackout.

Scarborough had recently resigned from Congress--prematurely and unexpectedly--on the heels of reported rumors about his marital fidelity and shortly after his marriage ended in divorce."

AMERICAblog: A great nation deserves the truth: Mar 19, 8:34pm 1 review politics
http://www.americablog.com/2008/03/for-third-time-in-two-days-mccain-again.html; From the page: ":

"Today in Iraq, America and our allies stand on the precipice of winning a major victory against radical Islamic extremism. The security gains over the past year have been dramatic and undeniable. Al Qaeda and Shia extremists -- with support from external powers such as Iran -- are on the run but not defeated."....

And speaking today, Sen. Barack Obama, used the misstatements as evidence that McCain's claims of foreign policy experience do not give him a superior understanding or judgment of the terrorist threat or Iraq policy.

"Just yesterday, we heard Sen. McCain confuse Sunni and Shiite, Iran and Al Qaeda," said Obama. "Maybe that is why he voted to go to war with a country that had no Al Qaeda "
