The Bush "administration" has shot their wad. With very few exceptions, there is NO credibility left on either side of the aisle, Republican or Democrat. Invoke the 25th amendment for starters, and go on from there....install a caretaker government until we find some "honest" people.... "Actions are held to be good or bad, not on their own merits, but according to who does them. There is almost no kind of outrage - - - -torture, imprisonment without trial, assassination, the bombing of civilians - - - - which does not change its moral color when it is committed by our side. The nationalist not only does not disapprove of atrocities committed by his own side, he has remarkable capacity for not even hearing about them."-George Orwell

NETWORKS PLAN 'END OF AMERICA' SHOWS
ABC alone has at least two would-be shows set in post-apocalyptic America ("Resistance" and "Red & Blue") while Gavin Polone and Bruce Wagner are teaming for the comfy-sounding plague drama "Four Horsemen" at CBS (which also is developing "Jericho," about life in a small town after America is destroyed).

CNN OPERATOR FIRED AFTER SUGGESTING 'X' OVER CHENEY WAS 'FREE SPEECH'

50 cent calls Bush 'a gangsta'
"I wanna meet George Bush, just shake his hand and tell him how much of me I see in him," 50 told GQ. If the rapper's felony conviction didn't prevent him from voting, 50 said he would have voted for Bush. Meanwhile, Kanye basically called Bush a racist on national television, and has since rethought his strategy for speaking out. "When NBC edited it out on the West Coast, that was a wakeup call," West told the magazine. "It let people know how censored we still are. This is supposed to be America, but you can't get your opinion out. There's all kinds of things I want to say, but I need to pace myself, to make sure my opportunities to say these things aren't taken away too abruptly."

Ben Mills 2 year old DOD talking points still don't excuse the lies the US Government and its Corporate Media are still telling us about the New Iraq. Iraq is a T-H-E-O-C-R-A-C-Y, not a D-E-M-O-C-R-A-C-Y. This so called War on Terror seems a lot more like a War on Freedom. The naive Peace movement should realize that the exit strategy out of Iraq is through Syria and Iran ending in Russia and China. The DOD has announced it's withdrawl plan from Iraq that consists of using airstikes instead of Troops. We have been bombing Iraq with airstrikes for 15 years, between both of George Bush's Iraq Wars killing over a million Iraqis. With very few exceptions, there is NO credibility left on either side of the aisle, Republican or Democrat. The time has come to invoke the 25th amendment, install a caretaker government, put the former US Government and Corporate Media on trial for War Crimes, get some rope, until we find some honest people who don't want to swing from lamposts for lying to the American People. It's called Freedom!
