Bush, iraq, massive tax cuts for the rich, benefit cuts for the poor, massive federal debt for pet politico projects, dismantling of America's safety net, abrahamoff, delay redistricting, money laundering, K street project.

no wonder America is fed up mostly with GOP but politicians in general... they put the frosting on the cake but the cake remains is corrupt. they will not do anything to make substantial changes.

Pat Robertson is an unmitigated moron; he should shut up and practice the compassion and non judgemental love that Christ practiced; he's hardly Christian, i don't know what he is other than an embarassment

article about the famous 2nd avenue deli at tenth street,

it will lose an institution thanks to fairly greedy real estate brokers and owners.

recently in carmel, CA, buisiness are closing right and left that gave the beach community character a decade ago.

speaking with business owners, it seems the money faucet that's been running, for the past few years, which jacked real estate to unreasonable levels, has turned carmel into a 2nd home haven, the middle class moving out due to costs and expenses. More than that, the new owners use Carmel as a vacation home site, so the community is asleep during the week, homes empty, businesses empty. people fly in on the weekend, go to restaurants, don't buy goods at the botiques, and fly out...

a negative economic impact of fabulous wealth, is it causes detriment to local communities, like carmel.

are you going to farcically transform them into enemy combatants...

how can you bypass the law and then expect to prosecute under it.

the president has probably undermined all extant terrorist legal cases by "executive order'.. is it really worth exerting presidential perogative..

i don't get it . Bush:moron. how does undermining our terrorism cases in progress make the country safer, please explain...

Saving President Bush By Melonyce?McAfee

Saving President Bush By Melonyce?McAfee

if bush goes Rovian, he's screwed for the next 3 years,
a softer line appealing to the middle 40% is needed;
his core base can't save him, moderates and fiscal conservatives need courting.

we'll see, usually he's so full of shxx on the state of the union
drawing non existent dichotomies... i think his tendency at
boasting and bristle will overcome any common sense.

i predict, a rough ride for our "worst" president, including further indictments, and terror case losses due to his "higher" than the law, illegality.
