Archives More Intrigue: Now everyone is looking for a goat. There is a full scale criminal investigation. The probe is sure to be bungled because it is being spearheaded by the FBI. The Democrats have noticed that the FBI and the Justice Department work for Bush. They would like to see an independent counsel doing it. Since it was George's boys who got Clinton, they would like equal opportunity. Can we blame them? Robert Novak is the guy who broke the story in the Times. I though revealing the name of an federal agent was a crime. I thought George's father made it so. Did Novak commit treason? I think so, but who else committed treason? Maybe it's alright if the government does it. What do you think? It don't change much from week to week. Does anyone care? James Yee: I stand corrected. It turns out that the army is a bit careless about how it appoints chaplains. They just take the word of his school about his fidelity and qualifications. It's true for all chaplains. Well, this guy was trained by a pseudo religious organization that receives its funding from Saudi. I think by now everyone knows that Saudi is the major source of terrorism in the world, though George would deny that. Pretty much all of the money and all of the terrorist recruits come from Saudi. What more do we need to know? Is it really possible that the Prince is ignorant of all this? I don't think he is, nor is Bush. Now, the authorities have also arrested several other people who were working at Guantanamo. Some were interpreters. All were sent there by our military, ostensibly to serve the American purpose. We can wonder if the army was as careless in selecting these people as they were in selecting chaplains. Perhaps all of these people really are spies. If so, where else has our military placed foreign spies? Who can we trust? All of this noise should not obscure the other facts. We still do not know why these people are being held in Guantanamo. We still don't know what's being done to them or why. Nothing has changed for them since they have been put there. I suspect that most of them will die there. Computer Software: They claim that they offer technical support for their customers. That is not true. Their technical support is just as incoherent as their software. It is only technical support for highly skilled technicians. I am a highly skilled technician and I have difficulty making this stuff work. The truth is, they know this. That is just the way they do business. It is gross dishonesty. So what else is new? It don't change much in the software industry. Art: Many so called art outfits that get grants from the government are whining like cur dogs. "They took our money away. That's mean. What will we do?" Well. let me weigh in on that. Whose money is it? It is not their money. It is taxpayer money. They never should have got it in the first place. In my humble opinion, when the government supports are, it puts them in the position of being arbiters of art. They are, in fact, deciding what is and is not art. No one is qualified to do that, least of all a bureaucrat. I don't want my tax money being used to support art of any kind. Support of art is a private matter. Government support of art is way outside the government franchise. Do Not Call:
