Molly Ivins (Truthdig): New News Is Bad News
Noshing on the news ...

-- The National Intelligence Estimate, agreed upon by 16 Bush-controlled spy services within the U.S. government, says the war in Iraq is making the war on terrorism harder and worse. It gives the phrase “leaking intelligence” a new meaning (a line not original with me).

We’ve been having a debate in this country about whether to continue the war—or “the comma,” as the president calls it—until it has become a semicolon. Now, the debate is over, and what we need to discuss is the best way out. This war is not a goddamn comma.

2. This war being considered a comma by Bush, shows how little
respect the Washingon folks think of our lifes's and more definetly those lifes of our soldier's and their familys. Cindy Shehan had his no. He was first saying this war was a thing of honor, and then he say's it's a comma. Well another smart women has it right too. It is diffently not a goddamn comma!!!!!!
