The Booming Bush Economy

November 8, 2007

The guy in the picture is not checking to see if he needs to shave. The economy, over which Historic Taxcutter George is president, is booming. Not in the traditional sense of the word, "booming", when applied to economics….but in the "blown into smithereens" sense of the word. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said Thursday [...]

All To Bushie, We Surrender

November 7, 2007

The thing about having a dictator for your Leader is that ALL must be sacrificed for him. All to the Dear Leader, America must surrender. All to Him, we must freely give. So when the Dear Leader gets his cowpoke-dictator-ass caught in a legal wringer by ordering torture…..the only way out is to legally surrender [...]

Kudos To The Beacon

November 7, 2007

Praise be. The Akron Beacon Journal reprinted an Eric Boehlert piece today on its' op-ed page. It is today's must read.

Aiding And Abetting The Cover-up

November 6, 2007

When Watergate burglars were brought to justice back in the 1970's, according to John Ashcroft, former Bush Attorney general, it was actually a terrible injustice that endangered our national security. That's the only conclusion I can come to after reading Ashcroft's suck job opinion piece in the NY Times yesterday. Consider what he says… Longstanding [...]

All In One Paragraph

November 6, 2007

Here's John Edwards explaining what the problem is….. George Bush’s "preventive war" doctrine was crafted by a radical group of neoconservative Bush administration aides. The doctrine holds that America should shoot first and only ask questions later. It rejects the historic grounding principle of America’s national security policy, which is that military force should always [...]

Leadership: Guiliani Style

November 6, 2007

Rudy Guiliani is the closest that the GOP can get, I guess, to a presidential candidate whose constituency resembles organized crime members. Oh, but he's a leader. "I believe that the skill I have developed better than any other was surrounding myself with great people…" "Too many leaders overlook candidates with unusual résumés because of [...]

Full Retail Drug Pushers

November 5, 2007

It's sign-up time again for the Big Pharma program Medicare Plan D. That's the plan with the forced insurance purchase, the infamous "donut hole", the "choices" that aren't, etc. Remember the dire warnings the Republican Congress and their Knee Pad Media pets issued over American citizens buying prescription medicines from other countries? The argument was [...]

Dropping The Gay Bomb

November 4, 2007

What do you do if you are a Republican governor going into a re-election in a couple of days….and you are trailing by double digits to your Democratic opponent? What Republicans always do….bash gays. Down to the last two days before voting booths open, Republican Gov. Ernie Fletcher urged supporters to disregard polls that show [...]
