    Tsunami Relief Becomes US Counter-Terrorist Strategy

    US turns tsunami into military strategy

    THE US subtly turned tragedy into imperial strategy in the relief effort that followed the destructive tsunami of December 2004, bolstering its military alliances in a region where its presence was minimal.

      Poppy & Clinton were on FAUX Sunday this morning on a very bad satellite link from Sri Lanka (or somewhere in that region) and Poppy made a point of saying how warmly the military has been recieved there.

      I don't know what bugs me more - the fact that those two are suddenly such good buddies, or the convenience of a natural disaster to save our "national image" from what Poppy's idiot son has done to it.

          FORD, all politicians are good buddies, which completely ruins every theory you believe in.

          I've even seen Dubya and Clinton chuckling from time to time together, most recently at Clinton's Library and Massage Parlor grand opening ceremony.

              I've seen that too. And I really think Dubya is in love with Clinton, or at least worships him a bit.

                  Well, he envies Clinton for being able to play with his interns, when Poppy could not!
