You may have noticed, on bumpers or t-shirts, the "1.20.09" slogan. It denotes, of course, Inauguration Day for Bush's successor.

With that, I just thought I'd mention that after seven painful years, the Bush presidency will end exactly one year from today. It's obviously something to look forward to. It's an awkward period in Democratic politics right now -- a contentious presidential primary, a frustrated Democratic Congress -- but looking at the light at the end of the tunnel, and knowing it's probably not a train, might serve as a morale booster.

Prediction for 2008 - timing will become everything and our very worst fears may be realized unless there are really American patriots who remain in our government, our military and in our senior law enforcement.

Vigilance, y'all!

In the past 7 years he has managed to set humanity back 200 years.

He can still do a lot of damage in 365 days

We assume one year. It could be: attack Iran or a terrorist attack on us, emergency powers enacted, election postponed. Cheney has worked long and hard to create a dictato...oops Unitary Presidency. Is he really going to let it go now just when the use of American force to create world wide hegemony is just at his fingertips? Something secretive and underhanded is always in the wind with these folks and the neo-con Wolfowitz dream of world military domination and aggression is still in their playbook. It's not over until it's over. Cross your fingers, hope, and pray that they're not as bad as they appear sometimes.

THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING BY GOD'S DECREE......

In today"s immoral exploitation of religion for political power, what exactly is the difference between evangelicals trying to force "their" religion on "everyone" and religious persecution? A governme

the dumbocrats are just as much to blame for allowing the Bush regime to forge ahead with a pass, so why is that ,i think we know the answer, but we the American people should be asking them this question and putting the pressure on them to answer it and asking it VERY LOUDLY

Rudy as a politician is finished, and I hope also this time is forever. Scum like him are no worse like the terrorist that attack us on 9/11.

I thought Bush was going to declare a dictatorship and rule the country for as long as he likes!

Another year? But perhaps there can be some act of God, if you believe in a good god who wants good for humankind.
