Bush to challenge Iran by summer.

What does bush care? the twins won't be dying....

I heard a tape of a Bigfoot call on the radio last night.

glad to hear you finally got short wave up in the woods

I've moved. We have full use of frequency modulation AND amplitude modulation now.

That was probably called in from the payphone just behind this sign.

...all jokes aside.
I was serious if anyone else caught this, or if it was perhaps more speculative than anything else.
I just caught the bit on the radio while driving and thought I'd ask.
McG, thanks for living up to my expectations. You never fail to make it necessary to use one of these while responding.

Sounds speculative to me. Condoleeza Rice has been advocating a hard
line with Iran whenever the issue came up at the confirmation hearings,
but seems willing to work the UN and the EU.

Yeah, the blip that I caught said that they would be targeting neuclear production sites..not necessarily a wholesale attack on Iran.
Although, Iranian officials contended that they could hold off, and defeat any likely military force they would be forced to deal with if it was brought to their doorstep.

It is a pathetic commentary on the state of our nation that we even have to consider the possibility we have such a John Wayne in the Oval Office...that any of this stuff is even remotely possible.

George Bush is one of the worst thing that ever happened to this country.

His child...the current president...is even worse.

The draft is just around the corner.

But the Draft is much closer than prosperity.

Not a good move any way one puts it. I'd say Bush is nuts if he is that much of a war-hawk. Let's hope there's not going to be a Bush dynasty in the future.

Let him invade Iran, and Syria, too. Let him bring back the draft. Let him continue to alienate the rest of the world - hell, with the draft back, who needs them? Let him get another tax cut favoring the wealthy through, and make them all permanent. Let him gut S.S. to pay off his cronies in the investment world. Let him appoint two, no three, extremist judges to the Supreme Court. Let him continue to use the threat of terrorism to erode our civil liberties, and to lock people away without due process.

C'mon. Let's get this party started.

It'll be interesting to see just how far he can go before people stand up and say "no more".

We are getting what we deserve.

We've watched George Bush piss on this Republic...and when given the opportunity, we joined him in pissing on it.

We obviously do not deserve what we were entrusted with...and even more obviously, we will not be passing on what we were given.

3 months ago, the people did stand up and say "no more".

No more terrorism. No more threats from muslim extremeists. No more Kerry jokes.

But did they realize that could be voting for more invasions?

That was then. Your side won by a slimmest of margins . There are at least half the Americans not so pleased with this president
. His record is one of fear mongering and he hasnt done a great deal to button up the homeland. His argument is to fight em over there to prevent them from coming here. Thats just stupid cause Bush is bankrupting this country with his
war" and hes getting our kids killed. This whole hing could have been handled in a bunch of different ways thatt didnt involve shitty intelligence, stupid plans, unthought out consequences, and massive spending wile we were undergoing fiscal shock . Then hes got the cojones to call the other party the "tax and spend" people. Nothhing allows a president to drain a treasury than the anthem of this piece of history.

"We dont wanna fight, but by JINGO if we do
weve got te ships , weve got the men,
weve got the money too."

Bush only won cause he had Kerry against him. If he would have run unopposed, he would have lost

government of the people by the people and for the people didn't take into consideration that most of the people are too f*#king stupid for such a thing.....and politicians have always used that to their benefit.... bush has finally just taken the gloves off and has dropped all pretense...the USA is now a corporation and the middle class is no longer necessary...so it will be systematically destroyed until a few ultra rich live their lives while the rest of us live like animals....it won't get that bad in my lifetime (maybe) but surely in my cubs.....

"We" ?

I did not elect this man, and if the media were still a viable source of information with an honest commitment to getting the truth to people, you'd know that America did not elect this man either.

There are mountains of evidence indicating widespread voter fraud and suppression (I may not have chosen the best links). Exit polls, only one example, which are extremely accurate were going for Kerry all day, and yet, when the "final counts" came in for, say, Ohio, there were significant differences between the exit polls and the final votes; the differences occurred ONLY in precincts where there was no paper backup for emachines (hence, no possible recount). Computer "parts" were removed the day after the election from computers in some of those areas. Voter suppression is a matter of record as voting machines were disproportionally sent to areas based not upon registered voters but upon potential Bush supporters in any given precinct, and as provisional ballots were incorrectly issues to thousands of people in non-Bush areas and then not counted. On and on it goes, and I have only mentioned the very tip of this immoral iceberg.

One would think, one would hope, for the sake of our democracy, or what's left of it, that the media might want to at least raise some of these issues, perhaps even do a kind of Woodward/Bernstein thing.

No point in debating the voter fraud issue here, as clearly, the tracks have been well covered. The loss to this nation is, however, far more than Kerry's loss. Regardless of which political camp one may be in, we surely agree that, when we lose our right to honestly choose our leaders, the America we all know and love is simply over.
