- "The Bush administration repeatedly ignored corruption at the highest levels within the Iraqi government and kept secret potentially embarrassing information so as not to undermine its relationship with Baghdad, according to two former State Department employees."
Not to mention that Bush and his cronies were the principal beneficiaries of the corruption. - Reply to this comment

I take exception to your statement of rednecks. I was brought up to believe redneck meant someone brought up with morals, respect, and love of country.I had a classmate in college a black girl who said she didn''t like rednecks. I asked her why and she said because they were prejudice. I told her i considered myself a redneck and explained my definition. We both came away with a different point of view that day. - Reply to this comment
- The second one is that the Democratic leadership
is throwing this election.
know it''''s hard to believe. I know it doesnt make any sense. But it''''s happening everyday right in front of us, and I can''''t go on telling myself that it isn''''t.

Strange but true, I have to concur with you there.
I''ve had the feeling, for a while -- that when November comes, the country could be in such terrible shambles, that winning the Presidency -- for any candidate -- could turn out be nothing more than inheriting a "poisoned chalice". I for one would not want to risk being the next Hoover. - Reply to this comment
- I also come from a long line of Democrats but I have to face the fact that the Democratic Party isn''t what it used to be.
Two things have become evident to me even though they don''t
make any sense at all.
The first one is that the Democratic Party Leadership
knows damm well that if Obama where to actually make
it past the Republicans and get in the White House, the results will be disastrous.
The second one is that the Democratic leadership
is throwing this election.

- Corruption is obviously ignored..or is it? All Bush and Cheney have to do is look in a mirror. They can and should have been impeached years ago. This is just more proof of how disgusting and arrogant this administration is. Bring on the Tribunals

- AYE AYE AYE!
Most people believe now that the ENTIRE REASON to go to war/invade Iraq and to stay there indefinitely was for the sake of the Bush/Cheney SPECIAL INTERESTS AND THEIR NEVER ENDING PROFITS FROM THE BLOOD OF AMERICANS AND IRAQIS ALIKE!!!
Most people do believe this...
... except for those who find rednecks driving in circles really complex and entertaining. - Reply to this comment

- "told Senate Democrats on Monday that their office (Office of Accountability and Transparency) was understaffed and its warnings and recommendations ignored"
Very damnning testimony. It''s hard to believe anyone still supports the Bush administration. - Reply to this comment
