6. How did you like the way he summed up Bush's Saudi visit to Moyers by...
... comparing Bush's previous announcement informing us... "Amurika's addicted to oil"...

to then conclude that - there he was, the one who was addicted "meeting his connnection".

7. Moyers 'outed' Bush tonight imo. He's still doing it!
I imagine the Saudis will be none too happy when a new admin takes over. Bush has been very, very good to them, in so many ways. What did I hear, weapons are what SA wants, and that's our only bargaining tool for oil. That made my skin crawl.

8. Yes, that was really the moment, wasn't it?
That whole summation was like a bad movie. The moment I heard that, I thought, "Who, out of the so called leading candidates is thinking ahead of this strategy?" I also pushed my thoughts further on the power WE WOULD have to step out from behind the mess created, had we been working on an alternative energy source for 7 years, since Bush stole the 1st election. We, in fact, DO have alternative energy ready for immediate consideration. Someone has to have the vision that the author spoke of when reviewing Common Sense by Thom Payne.

I'm gonna pick up the copy I gave my husband and read it all the way through now!

12. Beats the heck outta me, Bozita...
If more people would view journal (thus encompassing anyone with a TV set and antenna), we'd have some really good discussions, regardless of where they are-
