Hey. How's the Bolton nomination going? also....what's up with Ken LAy?
and who is being held responsible for "NO WMDs"?

Who went to Cheney's secret energy meetings?

Where are the additional Abu Graib photos/videos?

Where did the billions of Pentagon spending in Iraq that is unaccounted for go to?

How is the investigation going related to funds for Afghanistan being rechanneled to preparations on Iraq war?

Where's Osama bin Laden?

Why is the Saudi Arabian government and Pakistani government not being forced by the U.S. to yield the many terrorists hiding on their soil?

Oh...so many questions.

2. hey. that's a good one. but I think he's off getting lubed up

5. oh yeah. I heard on NPR how upset some NASA guys were
about "going to the Moon" again. it's like Bush and staff were sniffing crazy glue when they came up with that one.

Yeah...."let's go to the moon. cuz we can. 'sides. I don't think they ever went back in 60's. just like them Democrats to fake it while we make it." eh-heh-heh-heh.

15. The promise was made as an alternative to keeping the Hubble
operating or letting it die. As you might expect, we didn't get the Moon/Mars deal OR the Hubble. However, Halliburton/Iraq got enough money to do both of them in style instead.

18. nothin' but a bunch of scam artists
my favorite story post 2004 election was the farmers of Ohio who were SHOCKED and incensed at the farm bill receiving steep cuts costing those Bush voting guys to lose a lot of money they were counting on.

Never trust a Bush, you losers!

The way you tell a Bush is lying is to see if his lips are moving. If they are....then he's lying.

6. great link
it's always good to know there are capable people manning the switches for each of these controversies.

I just don't want these guys to get away this time.

ROVE basically challenged our patriotism and our desire to defend this country. That ON TOP of all the lies and machinations by him should place him in a shallow grave somewhere.

7. Now, now, let's not be too picky: we must give our leaders a little
latitude so they can keep us as.

12. Sibel Edmonds....
FBI translator who has information on suspicious FBI mismanagement and 9/11 involvement. She has been indefinitely gagged from talking about it because it might cause diplomatic embarrassment. Bombshell stuff discussed on DU from time to time.

14. another: what about Tom Delay and Abramhoff
what about Frist making medical diagnosis on the senate floor?

Where's the political price they should be paying for all the grandstanding and threatening on Schiavo when it turns out the experts on her husband's side were correct all along?

19. oh-oh-oh I got one
The "kill them all and let God sort them out" military doctrine the USA applied to Iraqi civilians during this occupation.

Also the 50-60 journalists dead from American friendly fire that had a distinctly deliberate aroma.

the attempted assasination of Sebrena the lady italian journalist?

20. yes. I believe there is an "intimidate the media" protocol over there
which may include specifically firing on positions where they know journalists are.

21. Since you mentioned Kenny Boy "I don't know that man" Lay
I still want to know if Enron's bankruptcy cost the taxpayers money. Did they make good on all their loans through OPIC (Overseas Private Investment Corporation), a government agency, a branch of the Export-Import Bank?

25. wow. I guess the maxim "buy high sell low" was used by many
in the 90's and early 00's. what a sad commentary on the types of companies/people who support and do business with George W. "reverse Midas touch" Bush.
