...And so castles made of sand...melt in the sea...


Like a topping forest fire, Republican Congressmen and their aides pass the horror around, trying to shed it, unable to hide from the growing web of Truth that envelops them all. [see: http://www.jackinthehouse.org/How Jack Abramoff Bought Congress - a 4 year old site, but kept updated - explains the whole sordid thing...] Norm Ornstein said last night on Jim Lehrer that as many as SIXTY Republican Congressmen may be implicated. Are "Conservatism" - "Republicanism" - "Neoconism" headed for the junk heap of political history? It's hard to say, except that after the next 3 grueling, lawyer-infested, Nixonian-Gotterdammerung years, a Republican probably won't have a snowball's chance in hell of getting elected, hopefully for decades.

War profiteers, looters, and incompetent cronies have taken over our government, wrapping themselves in flags and bibles. Exploiting social differences and leveraging them into huge rifts, they have divided our country deliberately to get into power, then defrauded the us into a disasterously bungled war. Draft dodging bureaucrats have control of the United States Military. They have squandered military intelligence, strategic advantage in the world conflict with Jihad, and almost 9 Trillion Dollars. They have sold us out to the Chinese, so their Enron-Buddies can funnel everything out of here before the sh*t hits the fan.

The Bush Davidians and their Dittohead President do not have a monopoly on patriotism. This is not a country where only those who agree with him support the troops and care about defending our country, no matter how Limbaugh and Rove twist it.

Now, any Republican hoping to get re-elected has to distance himself from Bush - which splinters his base terribly. Ouch.
