Go Cindy!

I love it! Cindy Sheehan has the chimp right where he needs to be, hiding in his lair waiting for someone to come and save him. He doesn't dare come out to speak with her because he would have to expose the truth about Iraq and his phony "war." What can he say about the "noble cause?" We illegally attacked this virtually helpless country because we wanted to control their oil? Not likely. All he can say is the usual bullshit about democracy, getting rid of a dictator, the world is better off, things are going well but we have to finish the job, bs, bs. bs. And it appears that more and more people are going to join Sheehan at Crawford while even more people are aiding her efforts in other ways. I can hardly wait until tomorrow when they arrest her. Oh, how I hope they arrest her. I want to hear the rationale for that. If her arrest doesn't expose Bush/Cheney for the evil bastards they are I can't imagine what will. Of course they could arrest her, have her drawn and quartered at high noon at the Washington Monument, and the so-called Republican base would cheer and high-five.

The Cuban five may finally be getting justice. Edmonds is appealing her situation to the Supreme Court. The Canadian who was illegally sent to Syria and tortured is suing Rumsfeld, Rove is by no means out of the woods, Novak has been put in his place, Judith Miller is increasingly exposed as a fraud, and things may be picking up with respect to the Roberts nomination. These are interesting if not happy times.

Woodward has recently suggested that Dick Cheney may be the Republican nominee for president in 2008. I don't know if he has completely flipped his lid or what. Dick the Slimy could only run for president if he already knows the election would be fixed in his favor. Otherwise it would make no sense whatsoever. Arguably the most evil man in the world with a heart condition running for president of the United States? Woodward has increasingly shown signs of having sipped the kool aid. But I said Ronald Reagan could never be elected president. And Mencken did say "no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public." Dick the Slimy versus Hilary (Wal Mart) Clinton. Run for the woods!
