One More Trip into Bush Land

Okay. Did they actually believe they would be immune from the law? The branches of government were specifically established the way they were so the Executive branch could be held in check by the Legislative branch. You can't ignore 200 plus years of legal history and the very setup of the government because you feel like it. Seriously. The whole point of a subpoena is to force those who do not wish to testify to do so. If that can extend to ALL United States citizens and even some non-citizens, what makes you special because of the job you hold. Obviously, Congress is not going to reveal state secrets, but they do want information that would reveal any wrong doing, probably by the people forced to testify. Does anyone honestly believe whatever happened with the firings was completely legal and above board?



Welcome to Bush Land. Stay 172 more days.

Bush declares progress in Iraq war

Seriously?! What fantasy world is he living in and am I allowed to visit because a world where things are this positive must be great.



"Terrorists "are on the run". Does he really believe this? Its more likely terrorists have:


a. become smarter and sneakier in their ability to hide

b. they've all blown themselves up

c. they've also noticed our President is delusional and no matter what they do he'll claim he is winning so they've become bored at his lack of reaction and given up



If he had actually listened to his advisers, this not-a-war would have ended three years ago and our troops would already be home. Instead they are stuck in the Hell-hole of a sand trap policing a war that's been in progress for millennia.



I would love for someone to slap him upside the head and show him:


a. people hate war

b. people really hate losing their constitutional rights

c. people really, really hate it when a nobody hick thinks he can do whatever he wants because his father had power and his father's little friends put him up as a shell to hide their own deeds

Reveal the Library Donors?

This topic is going to clearly show my apathetic side. Frankly, I could care less who is paying for the library. Doesn't really matter to me. And if the mysterious donors think it does, they are sadly mistaken.

I'm more interested in which books will be bought for the Library and how that will be decided.

Okay. I lied. I'd love to see a Fundie forced to purchase the Santatic Bible or "The Origin of Man". Just to be fair, it's be cool to see an Libertarian buy the Good Housekeeper's Guide, though that's less likely to happen at this particular Library.

Or I could be mistaken and this is one of those Libraries that doesn't have books. I could see Bush building a library like that.

It's Getting Deep

I'm starting a new section listing the bigest piece of **** I've found this week.

The preacher on tv is trying to convince me to send him money. Okay. I expected that. But he's doing so by saying if you send me money, God will take care of all your economic problems. And then he gives examples, which I just have to repeat.

First, he talks about his father, who was a . . . preacher. He is amazed his father was able to raise funds during a depression and around Christmas time. Well statistically, religion is always bigger during a depression. It's called hope.

Then, I kid you not, he begins to add both "The Secret" and "The Power of Positive Thinking". He gives examples of people, all who strangely worked in customer service fields, that had more work because they were nicer. Shock! Amazement! Being nice causes people to like you!

So send him your money, and be nice, and think really hard about what you want, and God will save the economy, no matter what the price of a barrel of oil.

And yes, he did mention the price of oil.

President Bush has decided birth control is the same as abortion. Thereforth I say Viagra is the same as rape.

President Bush has decided birth control is the same as abortion. Thereforth I say Viagra is the same as rape.

I already had to teach my health insurance provider how to count to 28 and now I have to teach the national government as well?

I wish someone would get pregnant and then sue their health care provider for refusing to prescribe brith control. They should sue for whatever it cost to raise a child for 18 years these days. And add in college costs while their at it.

Next, he'll be calling a woman's menstrual cycle abortion because a baby which could hdve resulted was lost. A baby that doesn't exist, still doesn't exist. Why try to force women to have babies, to wrestle with the moral decision of abortion if there are ways to avoid it?

This bonehead legislation will do no good. What about women, like me, who take birth control for the hormonal effects. Are you going to tell every 1 out of 5 girls affected by Polycistic Ovarian Syndrom that their only course of treatment is equalivant to abortion? And then explain to them why they will never have to deal with the issue of abortion because you took away their ability to have children?

Come on. Even women in third world countries have access to birth control. I fact, we send it to them.

Einstien Still Right

Scientists are still hard at work trying to disprove even Einstein. Astronomers now have visual proof of wobbling of binary stars as predicted by Einstein in 1915.

Amazing how science works, isn't it? Even after 93 years every theory is still game. Just don't expect to be taken seriously if you can't provide real data. And no, a book of fishermen's tales is not scientific data. Nor are things <i>you<i> and can't explain.
