I have a great deal of respect for Ted Kennedy and his political views, but I am sad to say, no matter how hard Democrats work at Progressive strategies it won't help regain the Congress and the White House.  Unless and until the voting irregularities, fraud, and downright fixed elections are addressed and corrected, we can look forward to an infinity of Repuglican rule disguised as democracy.

ACCOUNTABILITY???  WHERE ARE THE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION?  Nowhere to be found, that's where. George Bush, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, and the rest of this administration have taken America to war on trumped up charges. Over 1300 American soldiers are dead, and thousands with life-altering injuries, and what happens---NOTHING!  It just doesn't compute in my brain---thousands of innocent people dead, and those responsible are celebrating with parties, parades, and really big balls (literally) next week!

I just can't get over the Rather-gate debacle!  It's all a hokey-pokey, gobbledegook bunch of retribution and intimidation by the Bush administration!  It's pay-back for CBS daring to inform the public about the Abu Ghraib torture scandal!  It's a sad day for America when we are witness to a once breath of fresh air, power in truth, CBS news bending in the wind for a corrupt political administration!

 “Parade performers will have security escorts to the bathroom, and they've been ordered not to look directly at President Bush or make any sudden movements while passing the reviewing stand.” Now tell me George isn't crazy!!!  When supporters are ordered NOT to look directly at Bush, you have to know there's a screw loose somewhere!!!  Could it be the man who ordered up a war that has taken the lives of over 1300 American soldiers, is afraid of a stare, is he really what most bullies are---a chicken-shit??  The facts reported, you decide!

Well folks it's now official---The terrorists have traded in the caves of Afghanistan for towns and cities, hotels and motels in Iraq.  More comfortable surroundings to plot and plan terror!  All thanks to the incompetence of George W. Bush!  He has managed to do what no other terrorist before him was able to accomplish, expand the ranks of Al Qaeda on a grand scale.  Boy, what a legacy for any president of the United States, elected or selected, to take into the annals of history.

George Bush, this administration, and mainstream media are only doing what they do best regarding Rather-gate. If the message is true and the Bushies don't like it, kill the messenger.  The American public has been duped yet again by the most ludicrous report to come down the Bush pike thus far. For God's sake, Dick Thornburgh headed up the investigation, yes, that same Dick Thornburgh who served as Attorney General under Presidents Reagan and Bush.  A full blooded dyed in the wool red, white, and blue, Repuglican Elephant! How can anyone believe this was not biased?  The investigation could not prove the documents were forgeries, or that the information was false, but they believe CBS rushed to air and were remiss for using copies and not originals to verify their info. Come on people, it's just some more Repuglican hokey pokey to kill the truth!
