  • Just a pet peeve.

    The correct expression is "another think coming." Just sayin'...

  • It's OK, I'm a Republican

    House Republicans are planning to attach a rider to the $91 billion funding bill for the Iraq war barring any foreign government from managing our ports.

    If a Democrat proposed such a rider, the same Republicans would be screaming that the Dems weren't "supporting our troops." If a Democrat proposed banning governments from managing our ports just a year ago when Bush & Co. had all that political capital to spend, they would have been branded as racists and xenophobes.

    While it may be heartening to see rubber-stamp House Republicans finally opposing the Bush administration about anything, their hypocrisy has reached ever more breathtaking levels.

    Senate Republicans have caved on having hearings about Bush's illegal wiretapping activities. Will these same Republicans acquiesce so easier when a Democrat takes the oath of office on January 20, 2009? I hope it won't matter because Democrats will have control of both houses of Congress.
