Seems that according to CBS, dubya dumbass' ratings are hitting new lows. Before you all get all wadded up that polls are meaningless, I'm sure that if it was the other way around, you'd be posting the results every freakin' day. So please, spare me the hypocrisy. In fact, the neocon loving hypocrites are a distinct minority in this country now. About goddamm time. Some people are just a little slower to see what's right before their faces than others. Some poll results: DIRECTIO...

I found this exchange kind of interesting. I'm sure you all will, also. This pretty much speaks for itself. Needless to say, particular personal stuff was removed. A letter from Rich: FYI - Like the bumpersticker says, "If you're not angry, you're not paying attention." David Serota article Link My reply to him: As always, great hearing from you. I just want you to know that I actually have, really, that bumper sticker on my car right now. I've read about tha...

Are the reports true that the dubya dummy has gone back to the bottle? He's a drunk and a druggie who was reportedly sober for a number of years. Is he hittin' the booze again? I wouldn't be the least bit surprised. Some people say that any president who takes a drink now and again is not a problem. I agree. EXCEPT dumbya. A sober drunk cannot take one drink. Regardless, he's out of control, anyway. I am not the least bit surprised. He's got blood on his hands, and blood money i...

Saddam's trial begins on October 19, 2005. It's going to get very interesting, because in order for him to put on any kind of appropriate defence, he will have to bring up some things that our government likely wishes would not be brought up. But, the defence team, if they are going to provide a vigorous defense, must insist upon some historical facts. Of course, none of these thing will actually serve to condone the atrocities committed by Saddam, but he will drag down some significant Am...

I was thinking about writing an article about why I think conservatives are conservatives, why republicans are republicans and why in hell they cannot, or refuse to put together the facts that would make the sanest of people go hmmmmmmm......................... In other words, it seems to me that republicans refuse to accept facts, but instead rely solely on some kind of preconceived notion of morality, that being their definition of morality, in spite of and regardless of facts that w...

I thought about putting this in the Humor category (for about 1/10th of a second), but decided it belongs in Politics. Three Texas surgeons were playing golf together and discussing surgeries they had performed. The first said, "I'm the best surgeon in Texas. A concert pianist lost 7 fingers in an accident. I reattached them and 8 months later he performed a private concert for the Queen of England." The second said, "That's nothing. A young man lost both arms and legs in an acc...

This is no joke. We get horsie idiots for FEMA, doggie doctors for Womens Health, and f*cktards in the white wash, I mean house. Planned Parenthood Federation of America Interim President Karen Pearl issued these comments on the appointment: "The appointment of Dr. Norris Alderson, a man who has spent the majority of his career in the office of veterinary medicine, to the position of acting director of the FDA's Office of Women's Health speaks volumes about the priority the Bush a...

It astounds me when dubya proclaims, rather pointedly, and in the hopes that people will like him better than the less than 40% who like him today, that in spite of the huge federal spending program that will occur to clean up after Hurricane Katrina, he's not going to raise taxes. Huh????? How can this be, you ask? Well, it can not be. He is a liar. It's typical dubya speak, pulling his speeches out of his ass (Rovian style) to dupe people. But, people are beginning to resent getting...

Myrrander first mentioned this Alaskan bridge pork barrel some time ago. In another blogsite, which I shall not make known, it was just brought up again. When are people going to wake up to the absolute criminal activities of this administration. It's a government gone awry, completely. It starts: How can you have $250 Million dollars for a bridge in Alaska that services 2000 people and you can't complete a levee project in NO to protect the people and infrastructure of one of the...

I am angry. It seems that when our dubya administration outsources stuff, they can stand back and deny any culpability when the contractor fails. Well, they failed bigtime, just like they are failing in Iraq. Seems they are really good at taking the government money, but when it comes time to show any progress, they are no where to be found. And the money goes missing. I'll be following this story, as I work fairly closely with URS Corporation, as they are Corps of Engineers contractors ...
