   of course he didn’t.

   Bush is emotionally and morally constipated.

       He’s good, but that’s the best I’ve seen.

     We do not have to live with it. Our founding fathers knew what to do… Do we ?  Are we willing to sacrifice ?? There is too much cooperation between the parties, to feel confortable about 2008. If America does not stand up, she is at her peak!! It is ALL downhill from here, if we do not hold our politicians accountable.

   Bush must have dreams about when all those soldiers will be goose-stepping for him!

   The man is incomprehensively immoral…..

     ‘incomprehensively immoral’ is very good phrase for bush although I sometimes think bush is simply amoral..he really has no idea of right or wrong no matter for all his religious posturing.

   I dissect the misuses of history by Douglas Feith–undersecy of defense for policy and “the fucking stupidest guy on the face of the earth”–at my blog:

   A pair of unpatched vulnerabilities in Mozilla’s Firefox browser could allow an attacker to take control of a PC simply by getting a user to visit a malicious Web site, Mozilla says.

   TechWeb News

   A pair of unpatched vulnerabilities in Mozilla’s Firefox Web browser — rated as “extremely critical” by one security firm — could allow an attacker to take control of a PC simply by getting a user to visit a malicious Web site, Mozilla said Sunday.

   Because proof-of-concept code has been leaked — as were the vulnerabilities — before a patch was ready, Mozilla recommended that Firefox users either disable JavaScript or lock down the browser so it doesn’t install additional software, such as extensions” or themes, from Web sites.

   […..]

   A security update — which will be dubbed Firefox 1.0.4 — will be issued as soon as possible. “Mozilla is aggressively working to provide a more comprehensive solution to these potential vulnerabilities and will provide that solution in a forthcoming security update,” the organization’s security alert continued.

   I know a number of people use the Firefox browser, so wanted to just post this. Doesn’t seem to be an awful lot one can do about it at the moment, but there is more information in the article, as well as links to this or that.

   My worst nightmare, is GW the talking head Bush, just days before the nov 2008 elections, declares martial law, suspends the constitution and has his Reichwinger StormTroopers take over all the military, state, county and local law enforcement.  He declares himself King of the US, and immediately launches nukes on china, india, japan, and any non christian nation.  The Reichwinger stormtroopers round up all non christians and non reichwing christians and place them in so called re-education camps. Children are taken from their parents and fostered by true party, err christian members.

   sends shudders of fear down my spine.

   My hopeful dream is that 2006 mid terms, not one single reichwinger up for reelection gets a single vote.
   Democracy returns from the brink of theocracy and GW the talking head Bush, loses his voice for the remainder of his Lame ass duck presidency.

     I have a very similar nightmare reg. Bush & Co, or is it a daymare.
     After seeing the CNN documentary on the, No Child Left Behind’, fiasco, it appears children have already been taken, in a sense from their parents and are in re-education plants right now (schools).
     IN Houston they were able to reach high test scores because they retained students in the 9th grade(3 years in some cases) until they dropped out of school from frustration and thus did not have to be part of the test scores. So from this “success” story grew the No child act, so it appears to me that if this act continues as it is, they will have destroyed our children’s minds and spirits.
     Is there no area of this country or world untouched by the madness of this administration and congress?
