A lot of people are talking about holding Bush/Cheney accountable for treasonous behavior.

These 2 men single handedly rescued America from terrorists and you want to Impeach these Hero''''s.

What an un-patriotic thing to do you ungrateful Americans - wait - you call yourselves Americans?

Rock on Bush/Cheney 08!

Shhhhhh! The page editors for cbsnews.com are a little sensitive about that.

It so happens, the CEO of CBS is a registered GOP bozo, and doesn''t want to embarrass Bush with reports pointing out his naked, prevaricating posterior-- and that of his President of Vice, Richard Cheney.

But, seriously, keep those questions coming, folks! We enjoy hearing from you!

* Shhhhhh!2 -- The corollary is not to expect any serious political investigation from CBS while Moonves keeps his finger in the **** for Bush. Especially after all the fracas about Rather, and his forced resignation. Besides, all this ugliness about deceiving the American people with almost five years of war and hundreds of thousands of Iraqi and American lives-- all for oil. It''s just too big a scandal for CBS to handle properly.

So, never let any GOP bozo tell you America is a free market economy. America is a market managed by its richest players for their own benefit. The GOP mantra about free markets is utterly theadbare, and the hypocrisy goes back decades.

It is a free market - you are free to buy any stocks you want to buy.

Mr. Bush can influence the power players to boost the economy and he has. He kept his word - AGAIN!

Rock on Bush!

The DOW drops more than 2000 points over a couple of months and all you report today is "wall street pulls off stunning comeback?"
Has it actually come back? Still looks a little low to me. The only pulling off seems to be what you''re trying to do to the public--and prematurely at that.

Wow! It''s up! It''s down! It''s a wild ride! Such is life in the Bush economy. I harken back to the good old days under Clinton of balanced budgets, a national SURPLUS and steady market growth, even if it was over-inflated.

Are you all paying close attention to the stock market? Meanwhile in other matters of basic checks and balances...

CBS:
Why no news of the Center for Public Integrity report exhaustively documenting 935 falsehoods Bush and his cronies told in the lead-up to and surrounding the start of Iraq war? Wa Post and ABC are covering it. Apparently you ran it yesterday but quickly took it down? What''s up with that?

A lot of people are talking about holding Bush/Cheney accountable for treasonous behavior. I agree.
Rep. Robert Wexler (D-FL) has gathered around 225K signatures from an online petition asking for congressional hearings into Cheney''s behavior as possible grounds for impeachment. He only needed 50K signatures, but got almost 5X as many as needed. Still, Rep. JOHN CONYERS (D-MI) is chair of the House Judiciary Committee and is holding things up.
Please contact him at either of these 3 locations if you''d like him to proceed:

t_barr-- Interesting points, but you obstruct your delivery by posting in normal sequence, 1,2,3, etc. Instead, post in reverse order, 9,8,7, etc. because the latest post goes to the top.

Also, most readers will not have the interest / ability to take in all your points. Rather than a densely-packed manifesto, distill your points to maybe a "Top Ten"-- and for a three-paragraph post, that is still pushing the 1500-word limit.

My comments are not directed to your content, but strictly about delivery. I hope these suggestions are useful to your ideas.

Wrong... again. Bush had nothing to do with the habitual policy of Bernanke and the Fed-- all he knows is he''d like Ben to reassure his friends on Wall Street. Like, throw lots of money at their problem...

Curiously, their problem is directly the result of Wall Street''s "irrational exuberance"-- also known as greed and white-collar crime.

Nonetheless, what Bernanke did was pure Keynesian market manipulation. And to think you might suspect Bush of such liberal thought patterns-- or any thought patterns whatever. You ought to be ashamed!

In contrast to Bernanke, conservative economists of the Chicago School of Economic Darwinism would have said, "Piffle on them all! They can''t expect to thrive when they sell junk securities, can they? Where is Principle, when we need him most?"

So, never let any GOP bozo tell you America is a free market economy. America is a market managed by its richest players for their own benefit. The GOP mantra about free markets is utterly theadbare, and the hypocrisy goes back decades.

Go Bush!

A few of us, apparently very few, knew that we would pay dearly for the Bush giveaway to the Very rich and the Military industrial complex War Machine sooner or later. Along with the benifits enjoyed by the banks, insurance and energy companies, and medical corporations............, WE HAVE BEEN BLED DRY. The media and congress do not understand how bad our situation is. We need to establish INDUSTRY again in the United States. Service and government workers will not be able to support a nation spending huge amounts of resources overseas. The Democrats plan to grow a new-century energy industry would be a good start. Out-lawing adjustable credit and mortgage rates is necessary. The giant corporations which were built on the blood, sweat and tears of baby boomers must be made to pay for social security and the government should pick up the tab for pensions which have been earned and promised but remain unpaid or avoided. The government could be ours again, why allow liars and theives to steal our heritage?
