@grendzy...
[Read the article: Should George Tenet give up his Medal of Freedom?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]...who makes a good point. The American Public, god bless 'em, is still pretty much as hopeless as Mencken described, now and forever..
(Approval rating?
Why do you say Bush's approval rating is in the 20's? Here is a collection of a wide variety of recent polls:
http://www.pollingreport.com/BushJob.htm )
What really rocks my brain is the number of *unsures.* Tell me, just how ignorant do you have to be to be *unsure* about GW's job performance? I simply can't imagine. I know it's so. Some people are that uninformed, or that unformed. But the fact that a functioning adult in this country could be unsure of the President's overall job performance leaves me utterly gobsmacked.
Argues for a basic political literacy test before you're allowed to vote. I know, I know. Unamerican. Well, if we keep letting morons vote, we're not going to HAVE an America. McKinley, Coolidge, Hoover, Nixon, Reagan, Bush I and Bush II were not all just bad luck. They were the result of morons voting. How many more Bush IIs can this country take? You'll note that when the morons vote the GOP into office, the President involved has been worse, and worse. I hate to think what the next GOP Prez will be like, considering GW's sterling record.

let's not get so tired...
[Read the article: Last refuge of the scoundrel]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]...we forget to impeach these criminals and throw them in jail. They deserve at LEAST that.
Congress needs to keep right on investigating. There's a better than even chance something will come up that is so obviously criminal that Cheney and Bush cannot stand.
I want to see them do a perp-walk so bad. I know. It likely won't happen. But let's not give up just yet.
Because these two men must be thoroughly disgraced for the good of this country. Otherwise, the nuts who support them will only be back that much sooner.

amazing...
[Read the article: Yeah, but did Hitler invent the Internet?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]...that idiot Glenn Beck said:
The goal is different. The goal is globalization. The goal is global carbon tax. The goal is the United Nations running the world.
*******
these are bad things? At this point, the UN could probably do a better job of running the executive branch of the Federal Government of the United States than the Current Occupant is doing.
Man. These righties are getting desperate. Comparing Al Gore to Hitler. More than a little projection there. Projection does seem to be the Right's most prevalent, and pernicious, neurotic response to reality.
It'd make me laugh, if Beck didn't have millions of listeners who believe what he says.
Every day, every damned day, I am confronted with obvious evidence of the profound stupidity, and dishonesty, of humans in general. It shouldn't surprise me, after all, we're wired for the dishonesty, at least, but it does always surprise me.
Humans will believe the dumbest things. Just check out the series on PBS this week "The Mormons" if you don't believe it. Renews my certainty about the utter idiocy of large swaths of humanity. It's amazing, the way we so mis-use our forebrains.
