Seriously.

I thought "Impeachment is off the table" might have been an actual strategy, but it looks to me, and probably lots of you, it sure looks like an attempt to cover her own ass and just good old DC political bullshit.

Give me someone with a whiff of credibility, PLEASE!

*grabs head and wonders where the hell he is*



edit to add "I think"

after Bush asked for an additional 42 billion, it took 25 minutes, before they released a new Osama audio tape.

It's not even subtle anymore.

or is all this new build up for the possibility of Al Qaeda infiltrating the country just like they are bracing us for it actually happening?

I mean three months ago, the boogeyman was awol from the talking points.

They have been reporting it like its simply astonishing.

Where AM I?

What year is it?

and they get it done on the backs of the soldiers dying in Iraq.

Now I am all for the raising of minimum wage, it has been held back for decades for the rich get richer corporate lobbying groups overseeing interests. I do not however think that the sneaking of it into a bill on whether more young men and women die is the way to get it done.

The people want both, fair wages, and their troops home. We had to settle for one and not the other.

How is that a win? It sounds like we got something on the backs of the soldiers lives.... and we had to blackmail and sell ourselves out for a minute gain which doesn't even really match the standard of the economy at the moment anyways.


selling out sure feels gross.

and killed some people, but who were they? They were not the ones we wanted to get....oops.

and we invaded an Iranian consulate that was secured by diplomatic immunity, and detain six workers.... no word on how stupid or well thought out this was yet, but I think we'll get the news pretty much about the time the new troops arrive in Iraq. Along with the extra airstrike capabilities we have moved to the region...


the surge is an escalation, pure and simple.

A final Signature is all I need to complete my phony Bush Abramoff photo.

I would like to thank Getty Images and Sear Catalog for their contribution as well.

it's gonna hit 12,000 all bloody day long.

No mention of the 2995 dead US + Coalition of the willing gonna hit 3,000 at all...

No mention of the report of 655,000 Dead Iraqi MIT John Hopkins study...FROM YESTERDAY!

The fact the latest Condi revelation isn't "massive" is beyond me.

But the Reid story is catching steam...

bloody country.

Ahh found some Guiness....

Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan claims the U.S. Government called his defense minister and said he'd bomb them back to the stone-age. Is anyone really buying this?

I mean, this plays right into the Republican base's thought pattern that Bush is tough on terrorism, and isn't screwing around when it comes down to it. Tough talk equates to results.

I am so sick of this crap, another ploy to shock us liberals and strengthen their base.

am I wrong?

(1) Persons taking no active part in the hostilities, including members of armed forces who have laid down their arms and those placed hors de combat by sickness, wounds, detention, or any other cause, shall in all circumstances be treated humanely, without any adverse distinction founded on race, colour, religion or faith, sex, birth or wealth, or any other similar criteria.

been five days we have been stuck at 2497 dead in Iraq. With the average of 2 dead a day, it would seem the pentagon is holding off the milestone numbers reporting.

maybe save it for a friday...?
