Just the Facts
Saddam Hussein was never worth the lives of 1,000 American soldiers.


Zell served three non-combat years as a stateside Marine 50 years ago and crows about being "this ol' Marine." I guess my sixth-grade paper route allows me to be known as "this ol' newsman."


W stands for Without Leave.


I'm waiting for Bush to warn Russia that only the United States can wage pre-emptive strikes against terrorists.


Bush called it "swagger." Texans call it "All hat, no cattle."


Zell seems like a bantam rooster looking for a fight.


Isn't it ironic that Bush created his personal war and then touts himself as a "wartime president."


Republican convention: A huge gathering of white folks looking for what the government can give them through tax giveaways and corporate welfare.


Remember four years ago when Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy were going to create 6 million new jobs? So far he's only 7.5 million short.


Worst blunder of the King Roy administration? Appointing Zell to the U.S. Senate.


Zell's speech to the Republicans reads better in the original German.


I'd rather be in a swift boat with John Kerry than on a yacht with George Bush.


When Dubya said he's going to make America safer he means he's going to let the ban on automatic weapons expire Sept. 14 so we can all buy machine guns.


Only in American politics is it possible for a National Guardsman and the recipient of five draft deferrals to call a combat veteran "unfit to lead the armed forces."


Someone please tell the Republicans their emperor has no clothes. It ain't a pretty sight!


After hearing Zell Miller challenge NBC's Chris Matthews to a duel, Zell is right. The Democratic Party did change -- and left Zell in the 18th century -- while it progressed into the 21st century.


Georgia has moved up to 49th in the SAT scores! Just as the president says about the economy . . . "we're strong and getting stronger!"


I guess this proves Clinton has a heart. Now for Bush to prove he has a brain.


John Kerry will get the votes of the thinking people. Unfortunately, he needs a majority.


Republicans cultivate followers the way you grow mushrooms -- keep them in the dark and feed them manure.


It takes a superpower to make a supermistake.
