Wetlands loss linked to Outer Continental Shelf oil and gas pipelines in new study
~Mark Schleifstein

~A new study for the federal Minerals Management Service concludes that the construction of pipelines related to oil and gas production in the Outer Continental Shelf of the Gulf of Mexico "can cause locally intense habitat changes, thereby contributing to the loss of critically important land and wetland areas."
~Editilla Ho'tellas~ Many of these "energy developers" are in town this week. Sooo, we would like to suggest that if any'yaz want to go meet them and give these folks a piece of your mind, or walk around in front of the place with signs, or just hit them in the face with a Hubig Pie, then you can find packs of them here.

Investigators Link Levee Failures to Design Flaws~Joby Warrick and Michael Grunwald
~Editilla No'tellas~ We call old articles like this:
"Ghosts Writers of the Storm", because of the way they will show up out of the blue on one of our incredible arrays of search engined ass'grabbery... an article written just months after the Corps' levees failed. That is one of the most endearing qualities of my own interest in the Internets post-Federal Flood, to wit: the Corps and the Energy Industry can lie, cheat and steal their asses off --as they regularly do-- to control our information on the failures of their systems, but just as well on the Web, the Net, the Truth of our own work to counter that ASCECORPS PR also lives forever and stands to contradict their lies with facts.

Obama Blows Dalai Lama Meet To Kiss Chinese Junta Ass
~Editilla Lo'tellas~ Correction: Obama Kisses the Saudi Royal Hand, Sucks the Chinese Junta Ass and Assumes the Position of the Exquisite Corps as Commander In Name Only?
What am I missing here? I thought Obama is supposed to be Our President, that is 2% of the US population, or at least goddamn know who flooded New Orleans, why Aung San Suu Kyi is Still imprisoned, whether women can drive alone in Saudi Arabia and who drove tanks through Tienanmen Square. It isn't much to ask. I know the answers to these questions but I'm not President Hope
--even though Hope was in my vote. Now I feel as if I've been Hope'A'Doped.
