There are more legs to this torture tale than anyone first imagined.
Apparently Rummy is a bit more deeply involved in the process than he
has let on to date.

It's too bad it had to be something like this, but if it helps bring
down Bush, hey...


That's ridiculous, Harry. How could you possibly say that? That rivals NOYB's
"make them f*** a pig" post. You guys in a contest to see who can say the most
outrageously inappropriate things?

A statement that "it really doesn't matter what happens to the country as long
as Bush completes his self destruction" is just as bad as the neocons saying
that no matter *what* GWB does, it will be the right thing and good for
America.

Bush's policies are bringing Bush down. The buck stops on Bush's desk,
as does respnsibility for the prison torture. He knew about it months
ago, as did Rummy, and there is no a story circulating that the torture
was directly tied to a Rummy policy.

I'm delighted to see Bush's approval rating sink into the low 40's this week,
(Rasmussen), but sad to see the events and unresolved issues that are bringing
him down to that level. When Bush goes down the toilet, he takes a lot of the
country and even a lot of the free world with him. That's extremely
regrettable, not something that should simply be considered acceptable
collateral damage.

It is too bad. Perhaps there is a lesson in this, eh?\


Sadder yet, as disgusted as all but the R party diehards and the Limbaugh
dittoheads are becoming with Bush- your party has put up the weakest candidate
since George McGovern.

I hadn't noticed that.





Get your buds at the DNC to convice Kerry to pull out for personal or health
reasons.


Oh, puh-lease.



(Maybe one of his old war scratches will start acting up.) Not too soon,
though- (Let the Bush team spend another $100mm trashing Kerry and making
themselves look hateful and silly in the process first). Convince McCain to
switch parties and you'll walk away with this thing.


McCain is an interesting fellow, too conservative for my taste, though,
and on the opposite side of too many issues. But I do like him
personally. But he caved in the face of Bush's lying attacks about him
in the 2000 primaries, and I wonder if he is tough enough these days to
take on the Repubican juggernaut that has invested so heavily in the
smirking chimp.
