Hayden will Militarize the CIA! Gen. Michael Hayden's role in Bush's warrantless domestic spying program should disqualify him from taking over the CIA. Rather than repair the CIA's soiled reputation, Hayden at the helm could finish it off.

GOP Pollster: "This administration may be over!" Republican pollsters have seen the handwriting in the polls if not the wall. As the movement toward impeachment grows, Democrats may be willing to let Bush take down the GOP.

Reasons given for Goss resignation are but lipstick on a pig! Do you fell safer knowing that Bush appointed Porter Goss in order to politicize the CIA? Were we supposed to feel safer with a GOP watchdog making sure intelligence professionals were telling Bush what he wanted to hear?

A little noted victim of Bush's tyranny: the individual conscience A constitutional crisis looms. Bush refuses to enforce provisions of some 750 statutes and, in other instances, adds "signing statements" invariably at odds with the intentions of congress. Bush insists that he has the right to decide which laws are Constitutional and which are not. Just as important, however, are inumerable crises of conscience as citizens are forced to choose between what is right and what is Bush.

You know you're living in a dictatorship when telling the truth becomes a crime As Bush descends into ratings hell, his "absolutist" rhetoric is ratcheted up. Math buffs would say the two are inversely proportional. Even as he descended into the "30's", Bush and his Bushevik regime were defending "Stalinesque" rule with words like "unitary executive","inherent powers", and "executive privilege." Now Bush wants to prosecute reporters for telling the truth about his failed administration.

Bush didn't attack Iraq so that you could have cheap gasoline! Anyone expecting lower gasoline prices to result from war on Iraq have been betrayed. Given Bush's credibility and the behavior of oil oligopolies, however, such an expectation was naive.

The Cutting Edge of Chaos Bush's war on Iran seems inevitable even as Bush's approval rating is in free fall. It is clear that should Bush push forward now, he does so without a mandate. His nation is not behind him. He will have become a rogue "President".

For Bush, the "State" is Absolute Bush is credibly quoted as having called the Constitution "...a goddamned piece of paper!" More recently, he discounts other opinions because he and he alone is the "decider". Well...the "decider" is a fascist by definition.

The Bush Regime: A Cancer that Feeds on Itself Bush's war on terrorism has not only failed ?it's made the world a much more dangerous place. Iraqis were better off under Saddam and Americans are less safe in a world that is now motivated to develop their own nuclear weapons.

"Local Republicans Are Eating Each Other Alive" That's how the situation is described in Tom DeLay's hometown of Sugar Land, TX. where a web site called "Juanita's" has been snapping at DeLay's heels and exposing his hijinks from the get go. So ?don't fall for GOP nonsense about how those nasty old liberals like George Soros, Michael Moore and Barbra Streisand are ganging up on poor Tom.

How Bush "Liberated" Iraq Since Persian Gulf War I, the people of Iraq have suffered from its residual effects and the ongoing deprivations of sanctions. Now when all the rationales for war have been proven to have been untrue, Bush is hard pressed to "define" a victory that he can declare. "Liberation" is not it!

U.S. Torture Policies Inspire International Outrage It has become clear that the Bush administration continues a policy of torture that most certainly violates principles of international law insisted upon by the United States at the end of World War II. The world outside the beltway is very nearly unanimous that U.S torture is simply unacceptable.

How the Right Wing Screwed Up Our Language The American right wing has waged war on American democracy on many fronts ?the schools, the independent judiciary, the way we draw up congressional districts. Their most stunning victory is the most insidious: they've screwed up our language.

Bush Descends Into Hell It's time to bring to an end an era of triangulation and hair splitting. Democratic hopes must address the concerns of a disillusioned and embittered electorate. It's time for a real opposition to step forward.

U.S. court rules our government can break international laws to carry out torture A recent decision by a federal court is bad news for anti-torture activists. The decision raises serious doubts that a program of torture can be restrained via the courts. The decision seemingly abrogates what had been a judicial prerogative ?the very concept of judicial review. It raises a grave question: in what other way can torture be ended?
