I'm feeling good. But I hope this thing lasts
It was pretty enjoyable watching McClellan getting flogged by WH press corps on AWOL issue. Then he tries to change subject and guy goes into outing of Plame, CIA officer. "How's that investigation going?" THey covered all the bases including what Prez thinks about Scalia's duck hunting trip with Cheney after it was clear USSC was going to hear the case re: energy task force names being released by VP office.

Just neet to keep hitting on all cylinders. Don't let them smoke us with any of these issues. Prez is not a patriot. There are no WMD's. THey will commit treason to get their way and intimidate. They are crony capitalists of the lowest order.

We need to keep the conversation alive at home in our places of work, schools, neighborhoods...keep the focus on these topics. And then spice the rhetoric with how the Dems will straighten this horrible mess out.

We need regime change here at home. Oh. And FUCK YOU, BUSH!

1. I saw the press conference and thought that the press was
finally waking up and hitting hard. Now though CNN is reporting it like everything was answered and he showed them the records, following the WH line hook and sinker.

2. I agree that the guys there asking the questions
weren't being easy on the press secretary. That's huge. Once we start asking hard questions, perhaps people will really see how dumb the whole administration is. What the cable news people do with the news is out of our control.

3. that "hedgerow" of Natnl Media bush has to get around....
just got about 10 feet taller and much, much thicker. SOmething tells me the corporate types did a cost analysis and made a "shutdown decision" as regards this administration. It was nice while it lasted, but it's like an overvalued stock they all got rich off of...now it's time to dump that junk before the people are aware.

P.S. we are only a few bad quarters off from an Armageddon. Can you believe how much debt load the consumers and businesses of this country is carrying? It's ridiculous. Add to that the humongous budget deficit with deficits as far as the eye can see....and well, keep praying for a miracle.

FOr now though...we need to keep the heat on. WRite thank you letters to the media both print and tv thanking them for their work.
