Taking Bush "down" is not our important issue. Taking Republicans down
is the important issue. So what if this port deal makes Bush look bad. Most of the Republicans are having a field day opposing the deal and that makes them look good to the voters. i would rather get back to the REAL issues that face the nation and the affect people's lives the most like what this administration did with Medicare drug program, tax breaks for the wealthy, cuts in education, cuts in Medicare and Medicaid, and the threat to Social Security system AND all the corporate scandals that Bushbots were and are involved in, coal mine safety, oil price gouging, and credit card usury and banking fee gouging.

1. I was thinking of this earlier...
We can't afford not to broad-brush the Republicans, and not let anyone forget that, up until now, they were rubber-stamping all his stupid decisions.

3. Agreed.
Pretty much any way you look at it, we've still got Bush for another 3 years. (Unless some how, by some miracle, he's impeached, along with Rumsfeld, Rove, and Cheney.)

One thing that we can do right now, is the elections this year. If we get all the democratic nominies in, we can create a virtual Hell for Bush, and make his final two years harder than ever.

5. I've sent e-mail to some in Congress to tell them to stop the bullshit
and get on with the issues really negatively impacting average Americans. Wonder if I will get a response?

6. So you don't think the UAE overseeing our ports is a REAL issue?
I live in the city of one of those ports and it's VERY real to me.
