Keeping Score

Bush and his cronies have been wrong on so many things that I've lost count. So it was a lot of fun to read this post by Bill in Portland Maine at the Daily Kos titled How Wrong Can you Idiots Be? Here's a little snippet from it:

the Schaivo embarrassment is just one more stinking turd on your Republican "Dungheap of Wrong."

You were all wrong on Iraq. Completely, utterly, insanely wrong on everything. The list has gotten too long to print.

You're wrong on global warming. And now we know you'll
resort to doctoring scientific documents to hide your wrongness.

You're wrong on homeland security because we know that our ports, borders and infrastructure still aren't adequately protected. You're so wrong that we've been at terror threat "Yellow" for 1,204 days now, and at "Blue" or "Green" for zero.

You're wrong on those idiotic tax cuts. They haven't stimulated job growth in the slightest, nor have they helped the middle
or lower class. Any idiot could see that, and I'm surprised you don't because you are such an extra-special class of idiots.

You're wrong for plunging our country $7.7 trillion into debt. What the fuck were you thinking? Have any of you ever balanced a checkbook in your life?

You're wrong for trying to fool us into thinking that throwing Social Security into the gnashing jaws of Wall Street will solve the (minor) problem we'll face 35 years down the stinking road.

You're so wrong---oh God, how you're just lame-brained here---for ignoring the massive health care crisis in this country. A grade of F- to you...and my extended middle finger,
too.

You're wrong on stem cell research. You're wrong on "intelligent design." You're wrong on this crazy missile defense shield. You're wrong to ignore the genocide in Africa. You're wrong to force a cookie-cutter education "plan" on states without paying for it. You're wrong to send an abusive shithead to be our ambassador to the United Nations even though he openly despises it. You're wrong to embrace a radical, hateful religious faction of your party while---wink, wink---you claim to welcome all religions. And you're damn well wrong to suck up to residents
of another country (Israel) because you think their destruction is your key to salvation. "Jerusalem's gone! Pack yer bags, Ma!"

What a mess. The Bush presidency has been a disaster for this country and the world. We need to stand up and take back this country. Bush and his cronies are selling us down a river. The tide is turning.

The Downing Street Memo is being discussed on capitol hill thanks to Rep. John Conyers, of Michigan, the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee. Impeachment is in the air.

Sadly the Republicans are continuing as usual. John Conyers had to fight just to get the public forum on Capitol Hill. The Republicans originally wouldn't let him have the hearing there. And even then,

The Democratic congressmen were relegated to a tiny room in the bottom of the Capitol and the Republicans who run the House scheduled 11 major votes to coincide with the afternoon event.

Don't lose hope. The Downing Street Memo was leaked over a month ago to the Brittish press. Things of this magnitude move slowly. The Republicans are doing their best to drag their feet. Now is the time to put the pressure on. We need to push for the truth!
