A Few Odds

Drug addled Limbaugh still can't get this figured out, so for his benefit, the following: Without Abramoff (1991-9/2000) Legal Tribal Money (R) $786,560 (D) $868,890 With Abramoff (9/2000-2003) Legal Tribal Money (R) $1,845,975 (+135%) (D) $794,483 (-9%) The mony given to Democrats by the Tribes Abramoff represented declined after he was hired, and money to Republicans increased. But, that's all beside the point. All of the contribution mony is completely legal and irrelevant, because the crimes are the bribery and money laundering that Abramoff did exclusively for Republicans. Got that, gas bag?

Bush says the US shouldn't be discouraged at how the war on terror is going, even with continued insurgency. Of course not, we've got plenty of fresh young GI's and lots of money...now that we've gotten those damned poor people off the dole. Bush has assked Congress (us) for $72.4 Billion for the war on Terra. That would take us to .4 Trillion, and counting.

Bushco, Supporting Our Troops, with the smallest pay raise since 1994. Good Job Bushie!!

This was good news for those of us on the left. Russ Feingold has NOT given up his fight over FISA, as was announced by AP.

"The time is always right to do what is right." MLK Except if you happen to be a Republican.

One of my favorite anniversarys just passed. 02/17/33 the Senate signed the Blaine Act, effectively ending Prohibition.

Note to Fundies: the Bill of Rights, not the 10 Commandments, is what should be on the front of our federal buildings.

And finally,
If you can't be a good example;
Then you'll just have to be a horrible warning.
