Mea culpa

Maybe in the previous post I let my filter down and provided too may sources on candidate number five. It was only with the intent to provide a broad spectrum of perspectives without much comment.

[Update: 5-4-09 Apparently I am out of hot water where my flow of sources triggered a blogspot automated review. I guess I asked for it, with the May Day and all.]

Taughtology or tut-tutology?

Stallin' collectivists ?
Knot so fast.

Bad cop, no cop. 
In reference to the divide*** and the "end justifies the means" irony.

A. The end does not justify the means. 
B. That does not mean that the means is not justified. 
C. Or that all ends don't need means. 
Or that the person who said A. justifies B.
Or that C is justified or not in B.

Now back to the Cop word play.  Amy Goodman with Noam Chomsky agreeing with Ron Paul.  The irony is platonic^socratics in an Aquawhynian(stet)* way.  Antagonist to bad cop is Chomsky. 
Protagonist of no cop, Paul ? **

CONnecting the . . .

Dots.

Preemptive Comments:

My earliest recollection is that I borrowed it (connecting the dots reference to 9-11 failures/blame) from a news anchor since it hit the nail on the head(or at least in my mind). Since then I have been all over the map and found that others have similar maps. Those being on the track of "which came first" or who borrowed what or who was filtering whom, or leaking officially the "frame". Actually the implication is that there is a logical connection, or any connection, most of all direct. That is the least of it. In reality the connection is what is intended despite the dots otherwise know as intelligence "data", the path or what it takes.

Preemptive Links/Leaks:

Food Chain of Command


The road to intentions are paved with unread or misread links akin to the nuance of diplomacy or war by only means.
[Pardon my wordplay but not the administrations results.]
Further footnote: I have not fully read any of these links therefore the caution or pre-mea culpa, but please click bottom main link in con(text)nection to SeeMore Scary of the Rice Course in reading memos and playing/dealing hands.

Final Connection/Comment(Historical Reference):

George Washington may not have lied about chopping down a cherry tree, but Un-Curious George is still cherry-picking while swinging from one broken limb to another, about to be buried in his own Bushel.

Still Ticking

and still blowing "the bubble" or the press off. The story apparently is still in need of work.

Note that the timeline is disputed between a timeline where MSNBC has a 6:30 shooting versus the 5:30* in the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department report. And note that still hospital officials "were not concerned about the six to 200 other pieces of birdshot that might still be lodged in Whittington's body".

It just seems that more has been reported about what has been reported than what really is in any report yet. Maybe we will finally get a story, but not that the press (or Brit Hume) will yet do a job that is not just pressing.

* a rare mea culpa - - see next post

ROGER THAT!

Thomas L. Friedman in the New York Times presents a mea culpa of sorts in Dancing Alone.

ROGER THAT! Will be a new alert feature.

Not necessarily completely endorsing all his points, I mean it to be strongly worth reading and generally in line with my thinking. One caveat is that any change in direction by the administration should be welcomed but should not give them a second chance to learn more from failures.

If that is having your cake and eating it too, well, I don’t want to unilaterally disarm of rhetoric.
