Gotta Love Those Republicans
They got us into a war on false premises, without any kind of strategic forethought as to how to get out - and now we're paying 1 billion dollars a week to stay there doing God knows what -

They brought us skyrocketing oil and energy costs and have done nothing to move the market - except making the dollar almost worthless against every foreign currency -

They have done nothing to stem the rush of illegal immigration, pursuing a policy of using dirt cheap labor to perform the menial tasks they maintain Americans won't do -

They have turned a record budget surplus into a record budget deficit in four short years -

They have destroyed the equity markets - capital flows are shrinking and the stock market has made no gains in the four years Bush has been in office, reminiscent of the stagflation of the 70's -

Their most vocal element has not so discretely attempted to turn us into a theocracy, where fundamentalist religious values dictate our lives instead of the rule of constitutional law - and to that end they have abused their power to actually invade the privacy of a family's most intimate end of life medical decision making process.

They control all three branches of government and have for a number of years now, so everything I've listed can be laid right at their doorstep.

So, someone remind me again.... who votes for these people... and why?

4. Yeah, but when's the dam going to break? I'm tired of waiting.
Weeks and weeks of bad or embarassing news, and nothing happens.

All we hear is sycophants saying "the liberation of Iraq" and "Thank god Kerry lost," and similar hokum.

How long will this façade go on? Will the elections of 2006 finally be their Waterloo?

Sick of this Chinese water torture.
