Chris Matthews Eviscerates Right-Wing Host Kevin James Over Obama "Appeasement" Claims
The Bush Doctrine: September 1, 1939 Hitler sends Nazi tanks into Poland in a preemptive war to effect regime change. December 8, 1941 (in Asia) the Empire of Japan invades the Phillipeans, Malaya, and the Dutch East Indies in a preemptive war to effect regime change in those countries. May 1948 the brand spanking new State of Israel is invaded by its Arab neighbors in a preemptive war with which they wish to effect regime change. Mid- to late-1960s North VietNam sends regular army forces south of the DMZ to effect regime change in South VietNam. So is our President now dissing the Bush Doctrine? Say it ain't so. posted 05/15/2008 at 23:22:04

George McGovern Switches To Obama, Urges Clinton To Drop Out
The thing is that in the Senate, although the Dems have operational "control", they don't really have a majority. In the House, with a less than defector proof majority, they are not able to overcome the group of slow-dems (blue dogs) that don't quite share the views of the larger portion of our party. With a Commander-in-Chief still in office who suddenly finds that he DOES have the power of the veto, it becomes problematical whether or not the national will expressed in the 2006 contests (whatever that view was--subject to the interpretation of the members) can be implemented. posted 05/07/2008 at 12:37:59

Is that what God does? With so many zaneys in the religion biz, why should anyone take more notice of one over another.
