That’s what he said last night. Unfortunately for him it’s his own party that is balking at the idea: Even as Bush called on Congress to cut earmarks in half and announced an executive order cracking down on the projects, Republicans in Congress were sending out a mixed message about what their party really stands […]
Of course it is to help kids go to private schools instead, or “children trapped in struggling inner-city public schoolschildren trapped in struggling inner-city public schools”. I thought NCLB was supposed to help all the schools out? Guess it didn’t.
He keeps telling us how important FISA is to our national security, yet if he doesn’t get exactly what he wants then he will veto it – rather it expires or not. Now the question is if Harry Reid will have the balls to try him on it. It’s time to call Bush’s bluff on […]
This is a sure indicator of how much the world is anticipating a new leader in the U.S.: From Berlin to London to Jakarta, the destinies of Democratic and Republican contenders in Iowa or New Hampshire, or Nevada or South Carolina, have become news in a way that most political commentators cannot recall. It is […]
Despite Congress saying otherwise. Chertoff has decided he is the new decider and it is even pissing off Republicans: Noting that Chertoff’s department was forced to temporarily suspend a similar requirement for air travelers last summer when the rule caused a massive U.S. passport backlog, Rep. Thomas M. Reynolds (R-N.Y.) said the secretary “frankly has […]
We are one week away from what should be Bush’s last State of the Union address. I say could be because I wouldn’t put it past this asshole to try to find a way to stay in office (think Iran and WWIII).
With the news of global markets sinking today, expect our stock market to go down when it re-opens from the holiday tomorrow: If futures contracts traded on a day when U.S. stocks weren’t even due to open are anything near accurate, then markets will be in for a major decline on Tuesday, with concerns about […]
Jim Cramer was on Hardball tonight talking about the economy and Bush’s big plan. To say he isn’t impressed with Bush’s plan would be an understatement. Like Cramer points out – how much do tax credits help? No one will see those for months, if that. The economy doesn’t have that long. Besides that the […]
Yup now we got our own military saying that we will be in Iraq for another ten years. Since Bush only has a year left on the job perhaps he should plan on finally doing some combat tours. Oh wait – it’s more fun to start wars than it is to actually fight them.
Astonishing. Also proof of how we will never end the world of terrorism, even though Bush says he will.
