The new way forward is . . . more of the same. More troops. More death. More billions for Haliburton. That will do it. Go prez.

Since it appears that twice as many Iraqis have died violently since Saddam left power and died violently under his dictatorship, do we wonder why they hate us. We were told they hated Saddam, so they should hate us double, right?

The preznut appears to be ignoring the reccomendations of the bipartisan committee. He said he was listening to commanders in the field. When those commanders didn't say what he wanted to hear, he has relieved them from duty this week and replaced them with yes sir generals. It is now clear that the preznut's plan is keep the conflict going for two more years to ensure that the next preznut has to manage the withdrawal. Then of course the Bushies will chant that victory was lost because the cowards "cut and ran."

I have been so proud of the Democrats plans for the first 100 hours of the 110th congress. So much significant legislation is passing. Will the president veto it all? New ethics regulations for congress, negotiation with drug companies for lower drug prices, asking oil companies to pay for those leasing fees they have been ignoring and the end of oil company subsidies. An increasing minimum wage. A woman is speaker of the house and third in line to the presidency. Makes one think it is about time for a woman to be president.

Ever notice how fox news reflects the Daily Show? Hannity's Hot Seat. Where did he get that idea? At least the Daily show is where it belongs, on Comedy Central, not masquerading as news.

I'll bet you missed the Republicans calling a press conference to complain about the house rules not allowing them to make endless amendments and have endless debates and have endless sub committee and committee meetings to delay all legislation at the beginning of this congress. They actually said they resented being treated the way they had treated the democratic opposition when the Republicans were in power. The press asked "Are you guys for real?" Their answer. The people voted for change so we should operate under different rules now.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
