I don't know what America did to deserve Dubya, but it must have been bad. The Massacre at Wounded Knee maybe??? The slave auction that Lincoln saw in New Orleans??? The butchery in the Philipines??? Willie Nelson says "just a little old fashioned Karma coming down".

U.S. home building takes steepest drop in 27 years

NEW YORK CNNMoney.comm) — Housing starts and building permits plunged in December much more than expected, resulting in a full-year decline in new home construction that was the sharpest drop in 27 years.

The Dubya Recession is coming folks. It will be the Hurricane Katrina of recessions. A perfect s**tstorm of bad business. Fasten yer seatbelts.

GW shows why the commander in chief should be seperate from any 'great' military minds.

The 'geat' military minds are whining 'the military is broken... the surge is hurting...­' pure piddle.

It's a military..­.helloooo.­.. not a ballet club. Those guys are tough, they can hack it. That's why they train so hard.

George W. Bush... the one, the proud, the decider.

harry reid is great.

Nothing surprises me about Bush's incompetence any more. One failure after another seems to make no difference in Bush's conscience (if he has any). This miserable failure George W. Bush has cost the nation an astronomical damage that would take decades, if not generations, to assess the true cost.

Let me say again - at the risk of repeating myself - 'sucked the flexibility out' sounds positively shagadelic baby! Oh behave!

"Iran poses a nuclear weapons threat to the United States and its allies, according to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 H R 4986 passed 369-46 by the US House of Representative yesterday, even though the National Intelligence Estimate concluded that that Tehran abandoned its atomic weaponry ambitions in 2003."

Bush/Cheney have everything they need to attack Iran.

Thanks for the info, tsugury and Presscue.

9. The 25-cent horse outside Wal-Mart bucked him off.
8. A Shetland pony bit him.

6. Was frightened by Quick Draw McGraw cartoons.
5. KKK protested while he was watching "Black Beauty" as a boy.
4. Beaten up by young girl in fight over merry-go-round horse.
3. Never had a pony.
2. Punished by mom for "horsing around."
1. Horse once considered him its mate; surgery was required.

University of Vermont says GO OBAMA!

So General Petraeus's bosses say this is full of crap, but we rely on General Petraeus to set policy in Iraq?

Guess it's easier than just throwing them out.

Stop the presses!!! Ginna Bush is making wedding plans! No news about Tonica Bush - you know the one who isn't Ginna. Rumors are Tonica Bush has been spending time over at Mary Cheneys' house 'meeting people', but far be it from this paparazzi to repeat rumors.

The surge sucks as well as Britney Spears going after a new recording contract or Subya going to town on a Saudi prince.

Army Chief Of Staff: "The Surge Has Sucked All Of The Flexibility Out Of The System."

And it was working so well?

Phil Donahue is a General, wtf ?
