Hey, I just realized something. We have them on the DEFENSIVE
-Spying on Americans
= big campaign explaining why

-Troops overdrawn
= dumbass explanation from von Don Rumsfeld


-Republican Scandal's re. Abramoff
Democrats (I am rubber) Republicans (they are glue) what is bouncing off of us is sticking to them, and a good number of them.


I know there is more that has happend in the last few weeks, but I say they are on the defensive now.

2. My biggest complaint is that the rest of this country needs to wake
up and start paying attention to what's going on.:mad: Why don't I see/hear more outrage?

6. Yeah remember what happened with
the Social Security defensive crusade? Bushie went all around the country trying to sell his Social Security plan - the longer he was out traveling (on taxpayer dimes) the louder he screamed about it - and he succeeded at nothing but turning off the American people, not only to his plan, but his popularity as well. History repeats itself when you don't learn the first time. The louder he screams about it, the more we know he's lying.

13. It's the old Bard quote, He "doth protest too much, methinks". Many I know
tend to grow increasingly suspicious when someone "protest too much" and Bush and his cronies are in hyperdrive.

7. You bet we do. The Miers nomination showed that.
Libby gone
Rove on the ropes
DeLay indicted
Katrina
High fuel prices and windfall profits discussion
Roberts phase II report
Prisoner abuse


Fact is there are so many scandals - each serves to cover up the others.
The only thing keeping him in office is that it is not clear we would survive the constitutional crisis if it were all acknowledged. He is like a huge loan that has gone bad and can pull down the debtor with him. Frankly the issue is no longer him, but the bankrupt party that brought him to office and the media he apparently holds hostage.

9. Even Rush is trying to rally his troops
He's saying that people are emailing him asking what they should do, things look so bad for Dear Leader.

I've heard him say that TWICE now.

10. did you catch bush's* little spiel on the international criminal court
in kansas. He said he couldn't sign on to it because he didn't want our good men to have to worry about being prosecuted for war crimes down the road. yes, they are on the defensive bigtime. Covering his ass is what he was saying.

once people realize what repugs did to THEM. they dont get it yet, but the repugs did this (even though we are blaming dems) repugs are going to feel the heat for stacking the court. by next fall, all the nation should be really really nervous

15. So this is how it feels to have them on the defensive.
Boy I would hate to see how it would feel if they had us on the defensive.
