Your Sunday Funnies will be grumbling about the choice of U.S. Court of Appeals Judge Sonia Sotomayor to replace Justice David Suter on the U.S. Supreme Court. Those on The Right have already claimed she's a Marxist Socialist Activist Judge, but they'd say that about Attilla the Hun. Those on The Left have beefed she's not liberal enough, to act as a counterweight to Strict Constructionist Federalist Society member-in-good-standing Tony Scalia. So let's start with Meet the David where Judiciary Committee heavyweights PATRICK LEAHY and JEFF SESSIONS slug it out. Then This George gets CHUCK SCHUMER to battle JOHN CORNYN plus on the roundtable PAUL KRUGMAN tells GEORGE WILL his tie doesn't match his socks (an indication of a blurred mind). Throw bricks at Will! King of the John gets AMY KLOBUCHAR to take on KAY BAILY HUCHTISON and MITCH MCCONNELL while Face the Bob lets JON KYL and DIANNE FEINSTEIN agree on most everything. To top it off, Fake Nooz matches up Fake Dem ARLEN SPECTOR against Closet Dem LINDSEY GRAHAM. Get real with BERNIE SANDERS and JESSIE VENTURA on Ring of Fire Radio and AntiWar Radio interview with Jim Lobe on the U.S. position on the new Israel leadership hardliners. Then watch Max Keiser interview Michael Hudson, author of How the Scam Works for what's really going down with the world's economies. And check out ERIC MASSA fighting for Health Care on GRITtv with Laura Flanders. The Brick TeeVee Crew have no words for the folderoo of LeBron and the Cavs to the Magic. We turn our attention to baseball and try to watch the Indians crawl out of their early-season hole. Deluge of rains has held up gardening, but we hope we can get some of it started after the Sunday Funnies! Enjoy your Sunday viewing!

Eric Massa on GRITtv Eric Massa of New York’s 29th District has been making the case for single payer healthcare. The advice he was given when he decided to run for congress was, "don’t do it." As a first year congressman he’s been advised not to take a stand, especially on a hot button issue like healthcare. But rather than accept the conventional wisdom, Massa has voted against the bank bailout and fought loudly for single payer healthcare. A cancer survivor, Massa says that the healthcare system in this country is literally killing people. And Massa says that he hopes a public option is part of any healthcare bill that emerges from congress this year. WATCH Eric Massa: The Single Payer Moment
MP George Galloway in Cleveland Respect MP George Galloway visited Cleveland on Memorial Day to speak about Palestine and promote a new aid caravan to Gaza, this one a 500-vehicle aid drive on July 4th! WATCH Part 1: George Galloway In Cleveland Watch all seven segments! "The assault on Gaza has proved a turning point. A majority of Americans polled came out against it. Unprecedented numbers took to the streets in protest. Protest is important, but it is not enough. That's why we have organised a convoy of medical aid for the people of Gaza to leave the US on July 4. We hope to take hundreds of vehicles carrying $10 million worth of medical aid from Egypt into Gaza." More at Viva Palestina - A Lifeline from the United States to Gaza

Also, by voting in these politicians we give this whole set up legitimacy. What do you think? Are Goldman’s computers painting the tape in the last twenty minutes of each day? (must read!).

To release pix of torture or not to release. That is the question on the Corporate Talkies's minds (if you can call them that) for this week's Sunday Funnies. It baffles one's mind that TORTURE TECHNIQUES employed since the Dark Ages and used profusely by the bu$h administration are now even being CONSIDERED as a legitimate bone of contention in the face of DELIBERATE ACTIONS by TOP OFFICIALS in the face of 100% LEGAL TREATIES that proscribe otherwise. It is almost LAUGHABLE that Darth Cheney could MAKE OBAMA PROTECT more BCF crimes with ONE APPEARANCE on Face the Bob last week. Glen Greenwald explains it all in Obama's latest effort to conceal evidence of Bush era crimes and We wouldn't want to inflame anti-American sentiment plus The NYT sums up Obama's civil liberties record in one paragraph. MUST READ! Be sure to watch Face the Bob with ANTHONY ROMERO OF THE ACLU while 60 Minutes has SECRETARY OF WAR BOB GATES. We've got a few grudge matches with DNC guy TIM KAINE matching wits with RNC's MICHAEL STEELE on Meet the David and JON KYL vs. JIM WEBB on This Snufagopolis plus KWAZY LIZ CHENEY on the Roundtable. Throw bricks at JOHN "Crybaby" BOEHNER on State of John. Fake News goes All Religious. Don't miss Ring of Fire Radio with discussions on GOP astroturf psyops on climate change, guns, GWOT and high finance. And download ANTIWAR RADIO's interview with former UN Weapons Inspector SCOTT RITTER plus MAX KEISER discussing the world's Financial Oligarchy. The BrickTeeVee crew will be glued to BUMP DAY at INDY starting 12 Noon Sunday on ABC. Throw bricks (just not at the Brickyard!)!

  • STACY SUMMARY: I love the comparisons between UK and Norway. They had similar quantities of oil, albeit very different sized populations, but what they did with their income and where they now stand says a lot. They say every democracy gets the leader they deserve so it makes sense that the UK and US governments are as in debt as their populations and vice versa. Which came first the wild speculating population or the wild speculating governments of the US/UK economies? Norway thrives by going against the tide (must read).

Scott Ritter is a former Marine Corps intelligence officer and a United Nations weapons inspector in Iraq.

Focusing on the Taliban advances in Afghanistan and Pakistan, the Sunday Talkies talk military. Or, as Chris Floyd puts it, Rolling Out the Product: A New Full-Court Press for Pakistan War. First, Afghanistan President HAMID KARZAI and Pakistan President ASIF ALI ZARDARI on Meet the David. Then FAUX gets hot air from General DAVID PETRAEUS while This Snufugopolis gets more of the same from United States National Security Advisor & former Marine 4-Star JIM JONES (not to be confused with THIS JIM JONES - you'd think he'd go by something like J.L. Jones or J. Logan Jones or maybe just "Jimmy"). Of course JOHN "CRAZY TRAIN" MCCAIN will be on right after "JIMMY" to back him up in a "bi-partisanshippy" way. Throw a brick (before you throw up). Oh, but it gets better! Face the Bob hosts DICK "Death Eater" CHENEY who will pull a Foghorn Leghorn "Buh buh buh BOY! Yer Doin' it ALL WRONG" imitation in his "CRITIQUE" of the the Obama Administration's handling of the "Global War on Terror" (GWOT for those scoring at home). Yeah go ahead and throw more bricks. PETRAEUS re-animates on State of the King, also featuring The Two Bobs, CORKER and CASEY. 60 Minutes tells us how drone airplane warfare "saves lives" but scroll down to BTV alerts to hear MIKEY WEINSTEIN and JEFF SHARLET tell it a bit differently. Then on Ring of Fire Radio listen to author PRATAP CHATTERJEE on Haliburton's role in privatizing military ops, and the greater incest within the Military-Industrial Complex while PAT LEAHY prattles on about a "Truth" Commission regarding Bush administration's "alleged" War Crimes. We here at Brick TeeVee agree with Stephen Pizzo when he wrote "If this DOJ judgement stands, civics and political science textbook publishers will only have until Fall to correct their texts to reflect this new measure of bad behavior. Among the events currently treated by history books as crimes and crimes against humanity requiring a serious downgrade to simply “serious lapses of judgement" include such events as: Japan: Ordering the “Rape of Nanking”; Germany: Ordering the “Final Solution”; Iraq: Ordering the gassing of the Kurds; Rwanda: Ordering the Rwandan Genocide; Vietnam: Ordering the My Lai Massacre; Palestinians: Ordering the Munich Massacre; Bosnia: Ordering the Srebrenica Genocide". Lastly, check out Max Keiser below for some insight to the continuing financial meltdown, especially the item he links to about insider trading. Might be time to GET OUT while the getting's good. The Brick TeeVee Crew is ahead of the game as gold went over $900 and silver is nearing $14. Nothing like some gold or silver coinage to help with your "personal exit strategy"!

Protesters Disrupt Baucus Health Care Hearing A series of protesters demanding single-payer health care coverage disrupted a Senate Finance Committee roundtable on health care reform Tuesday. See HuffPo Protesters Disrupt Health Care Hearing (VIDEO).
HEALTHCARE NOW! Petition Just as the organized labor and other social justice movements ignited the fire that shaped the FDR era, so we must galvanize a health care movement that will mold the outcome of the era to come. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called us to this mission: “Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.” We must stay the course, building support for the national, single-payer health insurance program embodied in HR 676. We cannot join forces with a coalition that will leave the same failed system in place. The popular support for single payer is there if we but hold onto our courage and build the movement to win it. CLICK AND SIGN "I Support HR 676" at healthcare-now.org!
Mikey Weinstein & Jeff Sharlet on Democracy NOW! The military is denying it allows its soldiers to proselytize to Afghans, following the release of footage showing US soldiers in Afghanistan discussing how to distribute Bibles translated into Pashto and Dari. We speak to Air Force veteran and former Reagan administration counsel Mikey Weinstein, founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, and journalist Jeff Sharlet, author of a Harper’s Magazine article on “The Crusade for a Christian Military.” See “The Crusade for a Christian Military”: Are US Forces Trying to Convert Afghans to Christianity?

ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

Matters of war and peace, illegal wiretapping, torture, Air Force One photo-ops in NYC, the economy, jobs, the bankruptcy of Chrysler and more pressing issues will take a back seat as SWINE FLU takes Center Stage! In a nearly unprecedented move all major Sunday shows on ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC and CNN will have the Swine Flu Trio of HHS Secretary KATHLEEN SEBELIUS, DHS Secretary JANET NAPOLOTANO and acting CDC Director RICHARD BESSER. The crew at Brick TeeVee are waiting for the Color-Coded Alert crawl! Pig and Hog Farmers are complaining about the name of this new virus and want it called by it's scientific name of H1N1. Not to be outdone, Israel wants to call it "Mexican Flu". Of course, some of the hog farmers are SPOOKED by the whole thing, namely SMITHFIELD FARMS. Al Giodano at NarcoNews.com begs to differ: "The so-called “swine flu” exploded because an environmental disaster simply moved (and with it, took jobs from US workers) to Mexico where environmental and worker safety laws, if they exist, are not enforced against powerful multinational corporations." Of course SOME SAY this outbreak was no accident. Read Swine FLU: Smoking Gun about Baxter International, maker of many vaccines, and Natural Solutions Foundation's E-BLAST SMOKING GUN: NEW DEADLY VIRUS HAS GENE SEQUENCES NEVER SEEN BEFORE. Of course, this could never be, could it? Welllll, lookie here, here, here, here, here and here for starters! Also check out the newest Blue Dog ARLEN SPECTOR on Meet the David and Face the Bob and watch PAUL KRUGMAN give GEORGE WILL noogies on This Snufugopolis. DICK DURBIN crosses over to baffle FAKE NEWS audiences that the government really is run by corporations. Don't forget Ring of Fire Radio and Max Keiser's videos and AntiWar Radio listed below. The Brick TeeVee crew hasn't contracted Swine Flu or Wabbit Flu but seem to have some kind of Donkey Flu or Elephant Flu, as it seems any kind of "looking backward" into torture war crimes is "off the table". The cretins are crawling out of the woodwork to "defend" torture. Even Coni Rice now has used the "Nixon Defense" as reported by Jonathan Turley: "First, it shows Rice desperately trying to fall into Obama’s ever-increasing group of exempted people “just following orders.” Her role, however, was significant in establishing the torture program. She had an independent responsibility to refuse to participate in a war crime. Second, most war crimes involve officials who order them under the claim that they are perfectly legal. The Germans, Japanese, Serbians, and now the Bush Administration have made such claims." As Turley reminds us, Article II, Section 3 of the Convention Against Torture expressly states “An order from a superior officer or a public authority may not be invoked as a justification of torture.” If we keep pulling on this string hard enough the whole sweater just might unravel.

Ralph Nader on Democracy NOW! Chrysler has filed for federal bankruptcy protection, becoming the first major American automaker to do so since 1933. The arrangement came after an intensive round of White House-sponsored negotiations among the Treasury Department, the union and Chrysler’s executives and creditors. We get reaction from consumer advocate Ralph Nader, who says President Obama has failed to assert adequate control over Chrysler’s woes. See Ralph Nader: Obama “Indecisiveness” in Chrysler Bankruptcy Leaves “Everything up in the Air”.
Historian Alfred McCoy on Democracy NOW! This week, President Obama said waterboarding is torture but gave no indication he is planning to hold anyone accountable for authorizing it. We speak with University of Wisconsin professor, Alfred McCoy, author of A Question of Torture: CIA Interrogation, from the Cold War to the War on Terror.
