Bush's Second Term

How he has spent it so far.

Stab Stab

A case we at 2GL have been following closely ends in a no contest plea. Why is Hintz's attorney wearing an orange jumpsuit?

He Ain't Kinky, He's My Governor

Now that the primaries are over in Texas, we have Governor Rick Perry (R) running against Chris Bell (D), Carole Keeton Strayhorn (I) and Kinky Friedman (I). You need to take a look at this guy. Not only does he interview with a cigar in his mouth, he also curses and tells it like it is. Here is a Fox News article about the race. This is the only article from Fox News that I have read that does not spin for the Republican. When I listen to this guy's message, he comes off as cheesy and somewhat fabricated........it worked for W. As for Kinky, "Why the Hell Not".

Depraved.

And He Calls Himself A Democrat!

From the state that brought us the second term of George W. Bush (some say it was by cheating, others say by good old fashioned gay-baiting). . .

. . .and the town that brought us our good friend and frequent commenter RAM. . .

. . .comes this idiot.

Enron Crooks

If you are interested in important issues going on in the good ol USA, here is a good summary of the criminal trial against Ken Lay and Jeff Skilling. If you are not, or if you are a Republican, here is an unimportant devlopment, the great state of South Dakota is banning abortions. Ha, as I type this post, Fox News Radio leads the news break with the abortion story.

Randy "Fell Prey to the Demons"

Disgraced Republican Congressman Randy "Duke" Cunningham recently received the longest prison sentence of any congressman in history.

Prosecutors wanted ten years. Defense wanted six. Peter Yarrow, of Peter, Paul and Mary, wanted the judge to take it easy on Randy.

The Burning Bush

The polls are all showing Bush at sub 40% approval ratings, and every new piece of news seems to cast a glaring spotlight upon the Administration's pale incompetence.

Katrina? Bush was fully briefed about the impending massive disaster, including the danger that the levies would be breached. He sat mute, then went back to his vacation. He later claimed that nobody anticipated that the levies would be breached.

The Dubai ports deal? I'll admit that I think the deal itself is probably being overhyped. However, how about the fact that the President learned about the outsourcing of our ports to the United Arab Emirates from the television. How out of touch is this guy?

Meanwhile, it is widely conceded even among conservatives that the Iraq war, if not a mistake to begin with, was so bungled in its execution that we will be lucky to leave the country looking like Palestine. Bush's misleading experiment in democracy by force has blown up in all of our faces.

And there is increasing evidence that the president intentionally mislead us into this miserable disaster of a war.

Meanwhile, the Bush Administration has shredded the honor of our military and intelligence agencies by instructing them to torture other human beings - a practice long reserved for barbaric dicatorships, not proud Americans. The fact that the White House was behind this policy is no longer even up for discussion.

What does America do when it realizes its president is incompetent? Wait three years and vote for a new one? Or perhaps people will go to the polls in November and elect a Congress that will hold this man accountable.

He is a pretty damn terrible president.
