The last caller on CNN (a woman) really put the poor in
perspective A gallon of milk is $3.29 and a loaf of bread $2.99 and many of these people make $5.15 an hour.

1. Good point!
Economic conditions are reaching the point where progressive policy alternatives really gain traction. People will darn sure be ready to vote ion their economic self-interest in 2006.

4. Was That On CNN Too
I thought it was C-Span! I hope it was on CNN too!! But the last caller on C=Span was a guy on a rant about local & state government, but finally Brian cut him off. I guess because they want to "queenify" (new word) Karen Hughes!!! Just ANOTHER in a long spate of BushCo Idiots!!

Let's all fall down and knew in PRAISE! SCREW THEM, THEN IMPEACH THEM!!
