BARBARA'S DAILY BUZZFLASH MINUTE

BULLHORN TO PELOSI; If ever there were a basis for IMPEACHMENT, here it is on a silver platter: “WASHINGTON - A study by two nonprofit journalism organizations found that President Bush and top administration officials issued hundreds of false statements about the national security threat from Iraq in the two years following the 2001 terrorist attacks. The study concluded that the statements ‘were part of an orchestrated campaign that effectively galvanized public opinion and, in the process, led the nation to war under decidedly false pretenses.’"

“U.S. stocks fell for a fifth day after the biggest Federal Reserve interest rate cut in 23 years failed to persuade investors the economy will avert a recession.” Little did we realize, when George Bush was selected by the Supreme Court of the United States, little did we realize how much Bush intended to run the country just like Ken Lay ran ENRON, up to and including BANKRUPTCY!!! So much for those self-proclaimed CEO types in government jobs, somehow running a business and running a government does not equal out, although Bush will walk away with all the benefits in the end, because Nancy Pelosi won’t carry out the mandates of her job!!!

Character is a strange thing in that it reveals one’s moral fiber! It's one thing to cooperate with those of a divergent opinion, but quite another to publicly hug and kiss someone who illegitimately trashed not only you, but your family as well! “Burying the hatchet” is an acceptable tenet of politics when there are differences in policy, but when your honor, your valor, your very core, and your family have been wrongly accused; you don’t make a fool of yourself by embracing your attacker! You don’t join his immorality and endorse his existence, unless of course you, yourself, are of flawed character! John McCain lost any and all character credibility when he became a George Bush suck-up!

Another one just like the other ones bites the dust! Turns out though, in leaving so soon, Fred Thompson is actually smarter than I thought he was: Thompson Ends Campaign for G.O.P. Nomination!

Why is it that some people think they are above it all, especially when they so vehemently complain about someone else doing exactly the same thing they themselves have done! Again, I repeat, I will vote for whomsoever gets the Democratic nomination for president, but the current battles going on in my beloved party are soooo Repuglican that I dare say it’s a revolting development the Democratic candidates have created! Just in case you guys and a gal hadn’t noticed, Barack, Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of this country sending it into chaos, not something worth quoting; John, quit trying to “gotcha” cash in on the flubs and dubs of the other two; Hillary, Margaret Thatcher was a dyed-in-the-wool conservative and certainly not worthy of emulating!!! Now get back to Democratic principles and quit acting like “swift-boat” Repuglicans!!! P.S. to Bill: “For every man there is a season,” and sadly yours is over!!!

White House Has No Comprehensive E-Mail Archive. There is incompetence and then there’s intentional incompetence! It is logical and quite right to believe that Bush/Cheney and this Bush administration are not intellectually capable, but they are culpable! It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know how to CYA, and CYA is what this bunch of conniving morons have done ever since they invaded Washington, D.C.!

It’s an interesting phenomenon, how a man can assimilate the characteristics of that person he most reviles! It’s interesting how he rationalizes his reasons for becoming that most hated of all people. I call it a psychological glitch, when modern day neocons adopt all of the most diabolical tenets of Adolph Hitler! The Third Reich began with a “militaristic vision that as an empire it could set” what Hitler perceived as “wrong aright around the globe,” and in today’s world it’s become, the neocons' militaristic vision of the U.S. as an empire that can set wrong aright around the globe.” Must we become the enemy? Must we really repeat the horror of the past to find our future?

No wonder George Bush et al. want yes man, General David Petraeus, in charge of NATO! It looks like they’re bringing out the “nukes”!
