The GOP's 'Specter' of failure
(3 comments) In the end, longtime Republican Senator Arlen Specter had no choice. If he wanted to keep his Senate seat, he had to return to the Democratic Party he left early in his political career. If he wanted to keep his sanity he had to get away from the rabid right wing that controls the Republican Party.

Bush's boys on the hot seat
Two architects of the Bush administration's dismantling of the Constitution and this nation's immersion into an ill-conceived war based on lies find themselves on the hot seat this week - one for memory lapses and the other for letting his Johnson overcome his judgment.

Same game, same results, same madness
You can draw many analogies out of what Bush said in his disjointed, rambling speech to the nation but a reasonable person can come to only one conclusion: The President of the United States has run out of excuses, options or rationalizations for a failed, ill-conceived, illegal and immoral action that will go down in history as a massive political and military debacle.

Bush must be stopped
"The delusional Bush remains convinced more military action will bring 'victory' and more troops will make him 'successful' in Iraq. Bush -- like Lyndon Johnson before him -- is a self-anointed Carl von Clausewitz, in his twisted mind a superb military strategist who knows more than the generals."

Iraq Study Group Report: Smoke, mirrors and the fog of war
According to all that collected brain power in the Iraq Study Group, conditions in President George W. Bush's failed Iraq war are "grave and deteriorating" and the United States must find a way to get the hell out. This is news? Hell, the American public has known this for months.

Some uncivil thoughts about Iraq's civil war

Iraq war first-hand: 'A mess. An absolute mess'
The dwindling few who still, for reasons known only to God or their psychiatrist, support Bush's failed invasion if Iraq, continue to claim the situation is not as bad as portrayed by the media. Which, of course, is nothing more than political wishful thinking. Just ask CNN correspondent John Roberts, who went into Baghdad with the invading U.S. forces 3 1/2 years ago and recently returned to the war-ravaged country...

For this election, here's mud in everyone's eye
An old rule of politics used to say: Go positive in the final days of the campaign but, in today's politics, rules are made to be broken. Here we are on the day before a bitterly-contested midterm election and the mud is still flying through a barrage of attack ads that are booked through the time the polls close on Tuesday.

Close the curtain on 12 years of GOP failures
(1 comments) Talk to a Republican political operative lately and, once you get by the false public bravado that all of them try lamely to project, you see nothing but desperation in their eyes. The world is crashing down on the party of the elephant and they have only themselves to blame for the disaster that awaits them on November 7.

Partisans: America's REAL enemy
I don't like partisanship, political or ideological, and I don't like the partisans who follow political parties or ideological affiliations. I consider all partisans - Republican or Democrat, liberal or conservative, right or left - to be my enemies and enemies of my country.
