McClellan savages Bush and the Bush admin
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0508/10649.html
It's not that the incompetence and deception depicted is news. What is news is someone on the inside of the Bush circle owning up to it. Bush makes Carter look like a genius. Here we are with Bush about to leave: 1. mired in a deadly and costly and unnecessary conflict 2. our standing in the world among democratically-minded people severely diminished 3. huge debt, huge govt spending 4. a recession 5. civil liberties for Americans in the toilet 6. an administration that has advocated, in effect, for the DC gun ban I could go on and on. When you put a moron in office, and he is surrounded my evil men, well, we know how this story goes... Obama, at least, seems not to be a moron. He's got that going for him. |

Guarantees some brisk book sales, doesn't it.

Definitely, my Texas pride has taken a hit. Moreso from this FLDS debacle however.
Now the state govt. is arguing that if the children are returned to their parents, the parents MIGHT LEAVE THE STATE. WELL NO SHIT SHERLOCK, WITH NOTHING LEGALLY HOLDING THEM HERE IN TEXAS, AND TEXAS DEMONSTRATING HOW FAIR-MINDED THEY ARE, OF COURSE THEY ARE GOING TO LEAVE THIS STUPID STATE! |

Either he is a lousy human being just now doing the right thing for the wrong reason, or he is a lousy human being doing the wrong thing for the wrong reason. In either event, I don't think McClellan will do so well in history. |

He that can hear, let him hear. You are one strange cat. Can't we get a real democrat on this site? Just one??? If you in 2008 agree with the decision to invade Iraq you are no democrat. That with the intelligence we had, it was worth invading, killing, occupying. But I take it you are against avoiding any other "threatening" countries. I mean, the most liberal guys here might be Lebowski and MudPhud, and I don't really count them as democrats. We don't have one frickin democrat on this entire site. Sad. We have a Persian and an Israeli Zionist, but no democrat. |
