Stay the course?

Stay the course? What course? The only course there could possibly be is the one the neocons set in the first place: invade Iraq, set up a puppet government that will do their bidding, construct permanent military bases to make sure they will comply with our wishes, and thereby control their oil resources and what goes on in the Middle East. If anyone can come up with another course please advise. But please, no crap about getting rid of a dictator, spreading democracy, fighting terrorists abroad, and blah, blah, blah. Bush/Cheney need to cut a new record. This one is more overplayed than "tie a yellow ribbon." Either they should now tell the truth (an apparent impossibility for them) or else resign. Please notice that Bush's approval ratings are lower than Nixon's when he resigned.

It seems to me that Bush's approval ratings are so low that he has obviously lost the trust of the American public and there is more and more mention of the "I" word - impeachment. Under these circumstances should he be allowed to appoint someone to the Supreme Court? I don't think so but I guess there isn't much that can be done about it short of actually starting impeachment proceedings (even then what would happen?). Can there be any doubt that Bush/Cheney and the neocons have created the most chaotic and disgusting mess ever? Not only in Iraq but here at home as well. And can you believe there are still people who support these guys? To continue to support Bush/Cheney at this point requires a level of psychosis beyond my comprehension. And by the way, Robertson did not say "assassination." Are you going to believe him or your own eyes and ears?

"At first I was almost about to despair, I thought I could never bear it -- but I did bear it. The question remains: how?
