'EXPECT A WAR SOON'
"I believe people have taken a step back and asked, 'What's important in life?' " said the 'president' two weeks ago in Minneapolis. "You know, the bottom line and this corporate America stuff - is that important? Or is serving your neighbor, loving your neighbor like you'd like to be loved yourself?"

"...should we really expect more from men who never had to take out the garbage, let alone worry about paying the mortgage? Men for whom the making of money was a game without real risk or purpose? Enron, WorldCom, Global Crossing? Heck, what's the big deal? When a big corporation goes under, those with connections get tipped off long before Joe Shmoe and his pet portfolio. If a Bush loses liquidity, friends will come running, checkbooks open, as they did for George W. to pay for his string of failed Texas investments. Besides, the family trust fund is where the 'real' money is kept

"The Bushes are, as a matter of breeding, terminally irresponsible. And while being a loose cannon can sometimes be useful in making war, it is stability and pragmatism that breed prosperity." - Read more of Robert Scheer here.



"The Securities and Exchange Commission is going to start investigating Dick Cheney - as soon as Congress finishes investigating the Securities and Exchange Commission." - Letterman





WILL THE DEMS FINALLY TAKE OFF THEIR PINK TUTUS?*
"...These bullheaded good old boys prate about patriotism but see no problem with moving corporate headquarters offshore to avoid taxes. They prate about fiscal responsibility yet guarantee vast deficits by protecting billionaires from inheritance and other taxes. They declare war on terrorism yet arrange buddy-buddy deals with the same Saudi ruling caste that turned a calculated blind eye to Al Qaeda and America-hating madrasas. They talk ''under God" but they walk under oil. Is the pattern not obvious? These are the leaders who are going to lead America out of grave trouble?" - From 'Connecting the Dots', an LA Times editorial.

*Ha ha ha ha ha. As long as the media whores keep telling them that "62%" is a "soaring" number for a presidential approval poll, my guess is NOT. Pussies.
