In the past 8 (almost) years, we have had quite a bad taste of a”Republican Rule,” and I use the term “Rule” strictly. I think you can all understand where I am coming from if you have seen anything in the
news over the past years. Bush and his administration is nothing but corruption.
That being said…

Would someone please tell me why the story about Huckabee wanting to change the Constitution and start a theocracy here is NOT in regular newspapers? I am not allowed to use AlterNet or TPM or the blogs as sources for weekly “current events in politics” assignments. And if it isn’t even news for a high [...]

I have heard a lot of liberal and progressive adults say that is is indecent and wrong to criticize 12-year-old boys. I disagree. There are a lot of reasons why you might criticize 12 year-old boys. Some of them don’t shower often enough and they have terrible table manners and their [...]

By Mary Beth Sheridan
Washington Post Staff Writer
Republican lawmakers yesterday blocked the Senate from taking up the D.C. vote bill, a potentially fatal setback for the District’s most promising effort in years to get a full member of Congress.
The opposition [...]

It seems that George W is concerned about his legacy, and he is talking to a biographer named Robert Draper:
In book, Bush peeks ahead to his legacy
from Americas - International Herald Tribune
In an interview with a book author in the Oval Office one day last December, President George W. Bush daydreamed about the next [...]

So …. If half the republican people want us to withdraw troops from Iraq, we can assume that even more of the democratic people want to withdraw troops. So when will the politicians in Washington know what the people know? When will they listen? When will they start a withdrawal?
This is from ThinkProgress:

Think Progress has a post up called If It’s Sunday, It’s Karl Rove and in it they have a list of questions that they want the talk show hosts to ask Rove tomorrow morning. Here’s their list:
Promoting the war as a member of the White House Iraq Group
Leaking Valerie Plame’s identity
Compiling the list of [...]

I believe that the Bush administration is [...]

Even the White House won’t defend Alberto Gonzales any more. Nor will any other conservatives. So why is he still attorney general? Only because he is friends with Bush? Only because he knows all of Bush’s secrets? What a sham!
Here are some choice quotes from the interview on Fox. From Chris Wallace:
