Near-Total Isolation Sought for Guantánamo Detainees
As the new Democratic Party
majority in the US Congress considers whether to revisit the Military
Commissions Act of 2006 (MCA), the administration of President George W.
Bush is proposing still more restrictions on detainees in US custody. |

Gee, Papa Bush crying because his son lost an election twelve years ago. How about him shedding a tear for the thousands of deaths caused by his eldest son? The Bushes only seem to shed tears for their own family.

I just watched the press conference with Bush and Blair on the Iraq Study Group. Bush has no intention of acting on the "grave situation" in Iraq. He's staying the course.

Jeb Is Going To Heaven!
"If I measure my life based on this man's life, if I can achieve half of what he achieved, be half the man half as loving and as caring and as decent, when I go to heaven to meet my creator I think he would say, 'Job well done,'" Jeb Bush said.

Thank you for writing and your graphic.
Maybe it's another amBush maneuver by Daddy or he's going through a nervous breakdown because his family dynasty is crumbling right before his eyes. I guess the later.

When America's first Muslim
congressman, a Democrat from Minnesota, let it be known he will carry a Koran to
his swearing-in ceremony on Jan. 4, conservative pundit Dennis Prager called it
"an act of hubris ... that undermines American civilization."
In a web column, the talk-show host said, "Insofar as a member of Congress
taking an oath to serve America and uphold its values is concerned,
America is
interested in only one book, the Bible. If you are incapable of taking an oath
on that book, don't serve in Congress."
I formally salute
everything you do. Public opinion is the key to change (albiet rather late in
this case). You have reached untold thousands and done it with unfailing humor
mixed with serious message. You are the best. Keep it up. We have a long way to
go to that light at the end of this stinking tunnel.
Glad to know you,
Brad
Wow. I am humbled. Thank you.
The "Internets" have done a damn fine job showing that light at the end of the Bush tunnel vision.
