Re: Bush picks John Roberts for the Supreme Court
I can not wait for The Daily Show.
They must have been high five-ing when they heard.
The Far Right AM shows yesterday were anticipating a female, forget her name, but safe ish and not likley to be too controversial.
But they also mentioned that Bush Snr apparently only admitted to one mistake when in office and that was his pandering on a prior nomination.
A lot of other Bush policies will be de-railed by the consequencies, seems a stupid move.

Or who have assholes like Rove working for him, assholes who are willing to put intelligence workers into harm's way as a form of political retaliation, in a time when we desperately need good intelligence information (which apparently we did not get about the Iraqis possessing WMDs).
You can say that you like the Republican platform, ideology, agenda.... but Bush is a lying, conniving idiot.

But it's a fact that the Middle East has one less dangerous regime that could protect future terrorists.
And what a great reason to wage war - "Well the might have had something to do with it, but then again they might not..."

Please remember that the Democrats along with Europe and the rest of the free world had the same evidence against Iraq that Bush did and all agreed that he had WMD's. So they're all morons too?
Also, the Democrats voted along with Bush to go into Iraq.

I was in the UK when pre Iraq, I do not remember any suggestion of an Iraq connection with 911. Quite the contrary, Saddam hated them and dealt with them in his own way, they were seen very much as a threat to his own regieme.
Saying that the Democrats are just as bad does not cut it with me, shame on both there houses if that is the case.
I think he was looking for the issue, a bit of prior manipulation is hardly new in historical terms.
Saddam's regieme deserved what they got, but then there is a long list of others, Saudi for example would be higher up my list.
