2. How about a countdown until he..
pukes on some foreign prime minister? Calls Vermont some backwards hillbilly state that nobody cares about? Gets his ass handed to him in a debate?

8. Think of it.
The Chimpster getting smoked by eg. Clark in an unscripted, face-to-face debate. Not just smoked but humiliated. Then, he loses it completely in a foaming-at-the-mouth rant in front of the cameras. We know that his handlers will do everything possible to avoid that scenario, but let's hope an opportunity turns up despite their efforts.

3. My guess is that it will be a trumped, staged, assassination attempt
on the "bold" little boy Bush. Even that, though, will not do it. At least now we have the candidates with some access to the media and some refuting. Bush has lied so much and has no credibility left, so even if there is a "staged" assassination, I think few will believe it.

As for a terra attack. Not as effective as an "assassination attempt". After all, he was supposed to be making this a safer place after 9-11 and all the taking away of privacy and incursions on civil rights would be shown to be in vain. There would be a lot of finger pointing at George the AWOL Bush should we be attacked again and not only from Democrats. I don't think he would be up to making a case that he can protect us from terrorism after that. He would indeed be shown to be a miserable failure.

6. I loved what those polled are saying:
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/01/17/opinion/polls/main593849.shtml
snip
Less than half now approve of how he is handling the situation in Iraq. 51% say the war was not worth the costs.

Two of the president's just-launched initiatives have met with negative public assessment. Most Americans oppose temporary work permits for illegal immigrants and don't think a permanent space station on the moon is worth it.

Just 41% say the president has the same priorities on the issues as they do.

Only 30% say he is more interested in protecting the interests of ordinary Americans than in protecting the interests of large corporations. Just 39% - fewer than before - have confidence in his ability to make the right economic decisions.
snip

This is fabulous news. Maybe people are starting to wake up to this monster.

7. The Truth will out
The American people are not as stupid as the thugs believe. their crap will go down as a very dark chapter in American history
My hope is that Little King George drags down enough fascists in congress to get a real investigation going so that the cabal in power gets their just due- A trial date at the Hague.

9. Ever see the movie "Bob Roberts"?
Eerie in its similarity to the Bush coup. If it remains applicable, Bush stages an assasination attempt and fakes an injury.

I think he's in a 'spider hole' somewhere waiting to be pulled out at the right time.
