If the Iraqi people think we caused the deaths of over half a million people because of our invasion, that is what they are going to believe.

If they think that our invasion cost them the life of just their niece or brother or cousin, will they hate us any less?

For all of Bush' BS, the Iraqi see things that we do not, and they hate us for what we are doing to their country.

Sadly Foley will get more media coverage than the loss of habeas corpus, and I do not believe it is the more important issue. While sexual predators need to be caught and dealt with as the law permits, the loss of habeas corpus has much more far reaching consequences for our entire nation.

(I suppose this is where the wingnuts start flaming me and all liberals for "not wanting to protect the children," which is not what I am saying. But they would say that no matter what I wrote.)

If this is passed, the next President could detain John McCain for the rest of his life and torture him, and there is nothing McCain could do about it.

I wonder what McCain might think of being detained and tortured, again. Why doesn't somebody ask him? Maybe a reporter?

With 67 wives, Osama may need a 4 hour erection!

There was no rage in Clinton. He calmly went about destroying Wallace and the Fox/GOP talking points. The only times he had to raise his voice a little bit was when Wallace was trying to interrupt him and cut him off, which is the tactic of almost all wingnut pundits, and which Wallace did repeatedly. Clinton was good and thorough. It was nice to see a Democrat with a backbone again. I hope others were taking notes.

Dave, remember the old officers and DJs who used to play Dionne Warwick and Glen Campbell? The ones the youth involved in the actual fighting couldn't stand? Babe, that's you now! You might be spinning Jimi Hendrix, but they are going to be wanting the latest rap. It is a different world, and you aren't edgy anymore.

And pussy jokes just are not going to cut it.

In Georgia, you can register to vote by mail. You need no ID. You only need a copy of a paycheck, bank statement or utility bill, and who can't fake on of those on a copy machine? Nobody checks an ID. HEck, they do not even see you.

Previously to vote by absentee ballot, you need only get a copy of an absentee ballot, fill it out, and mail it in. No ID is needed. Again, nobody even sees you.

The potential for voter fraud is huge! You never even have to see an actual person to register and vote by absentee ballot! How did Georgia change the law with its new voter protection act? Now, anybody can vote by absentee ballot, and you do not need a reason. You do not have to be out of town or having surgery. You can do it because you feel like it. Any group who distributes absentee ballots, like the Christian Coalition, can now attach literature telling you who they think you can vote for. Oh, and dead people can legally vote absentee. Yes, they changed the law making it legal for dead people to vote by absentee ballot.

Why did Georgia, which is run by the GOP, not try and safeguard absentee voting? The vast majority of people voting absentee are Republican. They made it easier to vote and easier to commit voter fraud.

Voting in person, which most Democrats do? They made it harder and put up roadblocks, even though they could not prove that any voter fraud was taking place during "in person" voting.

What else do you need to know?

Nilsson actually damaged his voice while making that record. He throat and vocal cords were in very bad shape, but he was afraid if he halted production, Lennon would pull out as producer. He never recovered his entire range.

I'd like to give him a spicy Jesus roll.

There is so much being said in that one statement about Cruise, Baldwin, Scientology, Christianity and Hollywood that I would need a chart and a few weeks to diagram it all.

Talk about projecting! The GOP's idea of partisanship is doing what they want and keeping your mouth shut. Until, that is, when they are not in power. They will change their idea of partisanship to their pre-2000 definition in a few months.

Olberman speaks the truth and he speaks it well. We need more like him in this corporate run country.

The funny I find about Joe and his ilk, is that they are supporting the super wealthy who would not let them into their homes, even if he came in through the back door. They think they are on the team, but they are merely rubes being used by the team. The do not have now, and they never will have. They just refuse to acknowledge it. Like in high school, they will never get to sit at the same table with the rich kids.

I like what Ken suggests. If the Democratics party takes control of the Senate, they should behave just like Republicans. I would like to see almost all of Bush's judicial nominees blue slipped, just like the GOP used to do to Clinton's. Don't approve a single damn judicial nominee until 2009. Sadly, I doubt that would happen. We still have too many Liebermans around.

That was very interesting. Did anybody notice that he shops at IKEA?

And yes we know how this ends. Your comment on that reminds me that I come from a long line of dead people.
