Secret White House Tape Reveals Illicit Plan
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28 - A recording of a top level Republican strategy meeting of the Bush Administration recently came to light when a self-described whistle-blower who requested anonymity sent a tape to the New York Times. The president occasionally will record meetings for later transcription and the White House staff person who heard the tape said he was so disturbed by its content that he believed it was in the best interest of the country to make it public.
According to a source at the Times, the editors decided not to publish the discussion as it was deemed "outrageously sick and Machiavellian." However, copies of the tape were later sent to freelance journalists who cover the political scene in Washington.
Attending the meeting with President Bush were Vice-President Dick Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, and Senior Advisor Karl Rove.
At the meeting Cheney proposed creating a "diversionary incident" to help justify the wiretaps without interference by the courts and to demonstrate the administration's tough stand on terrorism in time for the November elections. He proposed planting explosives, weapons, and maps of possible targets on a "low level Muslim group in the U.S." When members of the group are arrested by the FBI, the Justice Department would announce that the group was discovered by listening to their overseas telephone conversations.
Gonzales reported a CIA team, code name "The Electricians," could carry out this plan "discreetly and surreptitiously." He suggested distracting the Muslims with a trustworthy prostitute and proposed Rice for the job. Rice said she would do whatever necessary to support the Republican agenda but she drew the line at wearing a push-up bra and thong.
Rumsfeld pointed out that to make Rice's role believable she would need a pimp and recommended Senator Majority Leader Bill Frist for the job. "Excellent choice," said Bush, who then brought up the subject of leaking the story to the press. "Who can we count on to do it right?" he asked.
Rove endorsed Sinclair Communications. He reminded the group that Sinclair was the company that pre-empted Nightline's episode of reading the names of those killed in Iraq, and planned the hour-long propaganda attack on John Kerry two weeks before the 2004 election. "They will report whatever we tell them," he said confidently.
"OK," said Bush. "We got a plan. But what do we do if we get found out?" he asked. Rove reported that Jack Abramoff has agreed to pay off anyone necessary to keep them quiet, including extended vacations to a Caribbean Island. "And even if the left wing press starts sniffing around you can always claim Executive Privilege now that you got the Supreme Court in your back pocket," Rove pointed out.

Alito's Speech To CAP Discovered
WASHINGTON, Jan. 16 - An aide to Senator Edward Kennedy discovered a number of documents pertaining to Supreme Court nominee Judge Samuel A. Alito's membership in the ultra-conservative organization, Concerned Alumni of Princeton (CAP). Alito, who claimed he didn't remember joining the organization or participating in any of its activities despite listing his membership on his resume when he applied for a job in the Reagan Administration, apparently was quite active according to the documents.
Alito gave a speech before CAP members during alumni weekend in 1985 where he claimed that women and minorities were lowering the standards of his beloved alma mater. He suggested that women, especially attractive women, were a serious distraction to young Princeton men who should be concentrating on their studies and not on the opposite sex.
"If the admissions office would only accept the most homely looking girls who wear thick glasses, are flat-chested, and have some apparent physical deformity, that would be acceptable," he told CAP members. "Princeton undergraduates should develop their bodies by participating in intercollegiate and not intercourse activities," he added.
Alito went on to claim that black students are inherently lazy and slow witted and recommended that if Princeton felt some social obligation to this minority group, the school should develop an overseas campus somewhere out-of-sight in Africa. He proposed two-year programs such as Minstrel Singing and Cotton History leading to an associates degree from Princedum U, Congo Campus.
As far as Jews are concerned, Alito recommended in his speech a requirement that they convert to Christianity during their freshman year. "As a group they are very bright but socially they are an embarrassment," he told fellow CAP members. "We need to teach them about the joys of eating white, spongy bread, spreading mayonnaise on their ham sandwiches, and stop them from using UnPrincetonian-like vocabulary such as "oy-vey" and "chutzpah."
Alito proposed an annual CAP event called "The Abraham & Andee Show" where members put on black faces, dressed in drag, and danced the hora around the Princeton campus. He said it would send a subtle message to certain high school students who were thinking about applying to the University. "There is no reason to say that women, blacks and Jews are not welcome, but we certainly can make them uncomfortable if and when they get here," Alito pointed out.
The Republican leadership responded to this new information by saying that it doesn't diminish, in any way, their support for the Supreme Court nominee. "He remains a fine, honorable jurist who will defend the constitution," said Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter.

Government Officials Not Immune From NSA Spying
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1 - The New York Times reported that employees of the National Security Administration (NSA) tested a variety of spying techniques in government buildings prior to the widespread use of email and telephone monitoring as well as hidden cameras aimed at U.S. citizens throughout the country beginning in 2002. Not only were telephone conversations of high ranking government officials recorded and their emails captured, but miniature cameras were placed in rest rooms in the Capitol, Pentagon, FBI Headquarters, and the White House.
According to a source in the NSA who requested anonymity, groups of NSA agents stood in front of large monitors watching senators, cabinet members, and other senior staff using toilet facilities. "Look at her big, brown ass," a NSA agent reportedly commented while viewing Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice using a stall at the Pentagon.
Other agents, according to this source, would comment on the extraordinarily small penis sizes of Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, and Senior Advisor Karl Rove as viewed at the urinals. They were heard describing former Secretary of State Colin Powell's member as a "hugh ding dong." In addition, bets were reportedly made by the NSA agents on the lengths of urination timed on stop watches.
Most embarrassing of all, said this source, was watching Senator Bill Frist and Congressman Tom Delay engaged in masturbating marathons in one of the Senate's private facilities while looking at photos in muscle magazines. "The country should only know what goes on in the private lives of our country's leaders," said the NSA employee.
The telephone and email surveillance turned up contacts with prostitutes, both male and female, solicitation of drugs, and insider trading in the stock market, the source reported. In one case described as "obscene" by the source, Senator Rick Santorum was heard "shaking down" pro-life organizations for donations in return for his support.
The Times reported knowledge of the NSA testing its spying equipment in government buildings for the past year and said it withheld publishing the information due to national security concerns. Cheney and Rumsfeld complained that they could be accused of "penis envy" while conducting the war in Iraq. "It's the wrong message to send our enemies in the middle east," Cheney reportedly told the Times.
