Senator Chuck Schumer
or
Senator Betray-us
After this whole Mukasey thing, I find myself wondering, what did Schumer get for his part in this nomination? I believe he was the one who brought Mukasey to everyone's attention, "suggested" him to the Administration. What form did his 40 pieces of silver take? Surely, especially the way Washington runs today, he didnt play the part of Dubya's rent-boy unwittingly or for free. So what does he get out of it? Keep an eye on Schumer, 'cause it'll be something.
Seriously, after one year of the Democrats being in power, I'm really starting to wonder what the point of having elections in 2006 was. Some people worry about Lord Bush staging some sort of coup to remain in power, but it seems to me that all he'll need to do is go to Congress, regardless of who runs it, and say, "Hey Guys! I really like being the Big Chief, so I want you to make me President-For-Life."
Democrats will make a fuss, a Republican or two will express misgivings, and then they'll make him our Emperor.
And what the hell, why not. I've seen it said that the Military Industrial Complex that runs our nation now wont loose its grip until we have a major crisis of society. Unpleasant as that sounds, how much worse can it be than this slow death by civil strangulation we're slipping into now? So bring it on! Let's descend into third-world barbarism and dispair. Let's become the downtrodden masses that our Republican masters have been working us towards for decades.
And while you're at it, why dont you check out some Buddhist literature? It might come in handy later on.

pretty much spot on sad to say. you are using a sharper knife now. actually like it, sad to say.
There's been a lot of crying lately, though much of it has been by the Bush Cabal ("WOLF!")*. We could all use a Happy Pill these days, but I think most would settle for spitting out the bitter Washington pills that we're choking on right now.

I have a headache.
Very powerful Op-Ed there Dave.
And every sentence is true..sad but true.
