WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO THE BALLANCE BUDGET AMENDMENT THAT THE REPUBLICANS RAN ON IN 1994? Hasn't been mentioned since.

You silly boy. I guess you didn't read the fine print..."rule applies only when Democrats are in the White House."

Yah, and term limits too. And whatever became of the pledge for "devolution" of political power away from Washington DC back to the states?

"Of all the enemies to public liberty, war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. As the parent of armies, war encourages debts and taxes, the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war too, the discretionary power of the executive is extended...and all the means of seducing the minds, are added to those of the subduing force, of the people..." James Madison.


"Although every nation knows how- if it has the means and the will- to protect itself from thugs of the sort that brought us 9/11, war is not an option. Wars are for nations, not rootless gangs. You put a price on their heads and hunt them down. In recent years, Italy has been doing that with the Sicilian Mafia- and no one has suggested bombing Palermo.

But the Cheney-Bush junta wants a war in order to dominate Afghanistan, build a pipeline, gain control of the oil of the Eurasian Stans for their business associates as well as to do as much damage to Iraq and Iran on the ground that one day those evil countries may carpet our fileds of amber grain with anthrax or something.

...

Elements of Corporate America are eager not only for a "massive external attack" that would make it possible for us to go to war whenever the president sees fit while suspending civil liberties. (The 342 pages of the USA Patriot Act were plainly prepared before 9/11.)" Gore Vidal, Dreaming War.

Teach, MZ.

It's just so sad to see how eagerly we've embraced our own submission.

I predict that Bush's war with Iraq will be won by Iran.

It wouldn't suprise me in the least. Leadership on both sides are itchin' for a fight.

Am I the first Brit to post on this thread?

I don't want to use this forum to advertise so I'm not going to give specifics... Part of my business interest is an Tshirt design concern. My 3 best selling designs to US customers feature portraits of George W. with the slogans "American Idiot", "American Psycho" and "I'm With Stupid" (pictured next to our T.Blair). I think the implications are self evident.

On Friday one of our topical comedy shows done as a kind of quiz show with popular stand-up comedians and impressionists asked the question "Who is the worst person who could be President of the US." It took two seconds of one of the impressionists licking his stiffened lips and wringing his hands to get uproarious laughter.

On an international standpoint, George W, Bush has long been an embarassment to the US people, from his dodgy election "victories", doubtful home policies to his unforgiveable antics abroad. I thought people who heard "The Voice of God" telling them to kill people (2000+ US troops and countless Iraqis) got locked up in secure hospitals, not given the ultimate power to do what the hell they want.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, from all of us abroad, and particulalry in the UK, do everything you can to get rid of this abomination from the White House.

Hi Dr Rock.

I will place a link if I know it's ok to do so by Rob. Whilst I don't normally turn away business, I joined this site for personal reasons, and dont' want to get in any hot water for advertising. I'll PM you a link if you or anyone wants it though.

We're doing our level best my friend!;) Give him time. Even on his own his approval ratings are at an all time low. It appears even the most stalwart have "jumped ship" on his arse since even HE now admits he went to war because of erroneous information. His latest State of the Union address last week was the "stuff of Bush" and only served to polarize the nation with his "either you're for me or against me" rhetoric.

Speaking of the State of the Union...I heard this earlier on NPR (so it must be true.)

Apparently the Saudis took offense at all this talk of reducing our dependence on oil imports from the middle east. So the State Department released a carefully-worded statement saying that the president "is not to be taken literally" on this point.

DC DEEP, has this apeared on your radar? I'd love to get the original source.
