Cliff Cornell fled the U.S. Army four years ago for British Columbia when his Georgia artillery unit was ordered to serve in the Iraq War.Memo to peace faggot: if you don't want to fight in wars, don't join the fucking military. Nobody cares whether you think the Iraq war is "illegal and immoral"; you're just a snot-nosed twat who by ran away like a little girl when it dawned on you that soldiers really do fight in wars. The Army's not just there to provide assholes like you a free education.
On Wednesday, Feb. 4, Cornell was deported from Canada, arrested in the U.S. and booked into the Whatcom County jail.
Cornell, who is from Arkansas, is going to be released on his own recognizance and ordered to report to Fort Stewart in Georgia, said Gene Marx, a local peace activist and member of the Bellingham Veterans for Peace, Chapter 111.
Air Force One: Obama's new 'spiffy ride'
WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (AP) - Suffice to say, President Barack Obama likes his new ride.It's ah'ight, yo. Just need some rims. And subwoofers.
"It's pretty nice," he told House Democrats Thursday in an after-dinner speech here. "Thank you for giving me a reason to use Air Force One."
The president spoke after a 31-minute maiden voyage on the specially outfitted 747 that will be his airborne home and office for the next four years.
Moments before taking off from Andrews Air Force Base, Obama visited the press cabin in the rear of the plane to show reporters his Air Force crew launch jacket, his name stitched on the breast.
"What do you think about this spiffy ride?" he asked reporters. "It's not bad."
Panetta Open to Tougher Methods in Some C.I.A. Interrogation
WASHINGTON — Leon E. Panetta, the White House pick to lead the Central Intelligence Agency, on Thursday left open the possibility that the agency could seek permission to use interrogation methods more aggressive than the limited menu that President Obama authorized under new rules issued last month.Wait, you mean the whole "we don't torture" line was just grandstanding?!?!? NO!
Under insistent questioning from a Senate panel, Mr. Panetta said that in extreme cases, if interrogators were unable to extract critical information from a terrorism suspect, he would seek White House approval for the C.I.A. to use methods that would go beyond those permitted under the new rules.
Fla. doctor investigated in badly botched abortion
Eighteen and pregnant, Sycloria Williams went to an abortion clinic outside Miami and paid $1,200 for Dr. Pierre Jean-Jacque Renelique to terminate her 23-week pregnancy.We've already been taught that life does not begin at conception; now we learn life doesn't even begin at birth. Nice. Is it too late to abort Al Franken?
Three days later, she sat in a reclining chair, medicated to dilate her cervix and otherwise get her ready for the procedure. Only Renelique didn't arrive in time. According to Williams and the Florida Department of Health, she went into labor and delivered a live baby girl.
What Williams and the Health Department say happened next has shocked people on both sides of the abortion debate: One of the clinic's owners, who has no medical license, cut the infant's umbilical cord. Williams says the woman placed the baby in a plastic biohazard bag and threw it out.
Police recovered the decomposing remains in a cardboard box a week later after getting anonymous tips.
"I don't care what your politics are, what your morals are, this should not be happening in our community," said Tom Pennekamp, a Miami attorney representing Williams in her lawsuit against Renelique (ren-uh-LEEK') and the clinic owners.
