I kept thinking that this whole thing reminded me of something, something a long time ago...

“I don’t think anybody could have predicted that these people would take an airplane and slam it into the World Trade Center, take another one and slam it into the Pentagon, that they would try to use an airplane as a missile.” - Condoleeza Rice

uh huh- I hear Dems call for impeachment daily...hardly a GOP only tag line

Wanda Sykes on Leno about Bush taking the blame for the Katrina response:

Wanda: "I don't think the President should have taken responsibility.... I don't blame the President. I blame the American people. Y'all knew the man was slow when you voted him in. You can't blame the blind man for wrecking your car when you're the one who gave him the keys."

lol! :D

Someone just emailed this to me:

When asked what his position was on Roe vs. Wade, George W. Bush answered, "I don't care how people get out of New Orleans."

I owe you some mojo, GC.:snap:

:snap: lol :snap:

BUT, the GOP are the only ones who did it , now weren't they? Perhaps if the GOP didn't bring the entire Government to a GRINDING halt over a BJ for 3 years, and all were busy Governing, we MIGHT have been able to see 9/11 coming.

So, aside from a Zogby Poll indicating that 42% of voters say they would favor impeachment proceedings if it is found the President misled the nation about his reasons for going to war with Iraq, bloggers, and the occasional highly influential Disney-fan message board geek, I'm unable to find any evidence of a concerted Democratic effort to have Bush impeached.

You may, of course, do your own google search to see if there have been any GOP impeachment efforts lately. I'm sure it would make an interesting new thread. Please include links.

Thanks so much.

Oh, they're still pissed about Watergate. :rolleyes:

I am.....depressed. Many of you may not agree with my reasoning, but many will also be shocked by what I am saying.

My major criticism of Bush has always been that he spends money. Lots of money. Too much money. Granted, all spending bills originate in the House, but he's got a veto pen. He hasn't vetoed anything, much less a spending bill. So what does he do last night? He basically promises everyone everything. This is nothing but an attempt to buy his way out of political trouble for the slow response to the disaster. And as everyone here knows, I don't hold the feds responsible for most of the damage, delays, or death. I know there is debate on it, but that's not my point.

In Mississippi, the governor has made it well known that he expects insurance companies are going to take care of everything. If insurance policies were purchased, then the damn well better. But with Bush promising the farm in LA, that incentivizes delays by insurance companies.

I am not meaning to sound insensitive. Help is one thing. Disaster aide. Relocation assistance. But to promise to rebuild it better than it was before? To eliminate poverty from the region? How the hell can anyone do that? Some 5 trillion dollars of wealth transfers over the last 50 years hasn't done squat to eliminate it.

I have lost all hope of the vision of Reagan for smaller federal government. With the SC eliminating states rights and an ever stronger federal government pulling the purse strings, there is no hope any longer.

I am completely disillusioned. Hopefully Carville won't have a chance to nab me again, because I'd be pretty vulnerable to being brainwashed right now.

The sad thing is I know the dems would be no better about it. So where to go? It is most certainly now, for me, the lesser of two evils. I have no hope any longer. The republicans have had power in the House and Senate for over a decade, with a Republican President for half of it. Yet the spending continues to increase, the promises of taking care of the populace continue to increase (not just this, but stuff like medicare prescription coverage, etc), and government grows ever bigger.

I want to puke.
