Frank Gaffney ( Neocon Warmonger) on CSpan. This Is DISGUSTING!
Shit! Brian Lamb isn't even there tday but it is still Fascist Friday when they invite neocon favorite Gaffney to discuss Nuclear Nonproliferation. Thank god they are letting a real expert on non-proliferation, Lt. Gen. Robert Gard (ret.) from the center for Arms control and non-proliferation.

Here is Gaffney's "credentials". What a fucking chickenhawk warmonger......


http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/

http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Center_for_Security_Policy#Board_of_Directors

Personnel

* Dick Cheney, Vice President of the U.S. under George W. Bush, was an early member of Center's Board of Advisors (which is now called the National Security Advisory Council).

* "twenty-two CSP advisers -- including additional Reagan-era remnants like Elliott Abrams, Ken deGraffenreid, Paula Dobriansky, Sven Kraemer, Robert Joseph, Robert Andrews and J.D. Crouch -- have reoccupied key positions in the national security establishment, as have other true believers of more recent vintage."


..."While CSP boasts an impressive advisory list of hawkish luminaries, its star is Frank Gaffney, its founder, president and CEO."
..."Gaffney and CSP's prescriptions for national security have been fairly simple: Gut all arms control treaties, push ahead with weapons systems virtually everyone agrees should be killed, give no quarter to the Palestinians and, most important, go full steam ahead on just about every national missile defense program."
..."Looking at the center's affiliates, it's not hard to see why: Not only are makers of the Osprey (Boeing) well represented on the CSP's board of advisers but so too is Lockheed Martin (by vice president for space and strategic missiles Charles Kupperman and director of defense systems Douglas Graham). Former TRW executive Amoretta Hoeber is also a CSP adviser, as is former Congressman and Raytheon lobbyist Robert Livingston. Ball Aerospace & Technologies -- a major manufacturer of NASA and Pentagon satellites -- is represented by former Navy Secretary John Lehman, while missile-defense computer systems maker Hewlett-Packard is represented by George Keyworth, who is on its board of directors. And the Congressional Missile Defense Caucus and Osprey (or "tilt rotor") caucus are represented by Representative Curt Weldon and Senator Jon Kyl." <3>



Here is the sane web site for Arms Control and Non-proliferation.

1. He Didn't Use His Favorite Codeword...
Islamofacist. That used to spew out of his pie hole every other sentence. I guess someone got to him that this crap didn't fly...so he's doing the wink-wink nod-nod deal today.

Seems like Gaffney's star had faded...he used to be all over the teevee, now he's lucky to get a shot on C-SPIN.

I don't think he's ever seen a weapons system he doesn't love. He's one of the many sanctimonious asses who believe in American superiority...that somehow we, with thousands of warheads, are the only ones who can and should have nukes and the rest of the world (especially the brown-skinned type) should submit to our will.

Yes, he's pure scum through and through. He's on my B-List for War Criminals.

2. K&R for an incredibly literate and informative OP.
That's the kind of spotlight that makes the roaches run for cover.
