"Stay the course..." (none / 0)
You keep bringing that up. But, I think you do not know what it means. It is like so much of the way GW bruises the American language. You heard him say "stay the course" while he was saying "stay The Coarse" (which, IMHO, is fitting). I am only surprised he has not said "in fact, we are going to get coarser."

So much for the fun and games. Impeach and indict Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, et al. Jail them and impound their ill-gotten fortunes. JMO...

Print form of why we need to oust the GOP (none / 0)
I am late deafened.  I want to share with friends why we need to vote out the GOP.  For example, I have a friend in S.C. where she intends to vote for incumbent Gov. Sanford.  I want to share why the GOP needs to be rejected soundly.  The videos focus well on the topics, but are not accessible to all of us.  Please someone point me to a text version or condensed text form that I can share with others.

These house races are tightening.

Dems and media who are drinking their own kool-ad have their own "Nov. surprise" coming.
