It just sickens me when I hear Republicans making statements of compassion. Where was people like Mrs. Hughes when the murderous dictators of South Africa, Uganda, China, etc. was committing atrocity after atrocity to their own people? Not one Republican entertained the thought of using the military to liberate the people of those countries. The American people can see straight through the phony liberation line used to attack Iraq, and I’m willing to bet the American people will prove it, when Bush is voted out of office.

She is supposed to be on The Daily Show on Wednesday night, and I assume she is doing all the morning shows this week.

Maybe somebody will ask her about this.

I despise these ‘unnamed sources’ insider stories which claim to report internal conflict in a politician’s inner circle. There is no way to verify if any part of the story is true, and odds are the story is just someone trying to manipulate public opinion, either the ‘unnamed source’ or the reporter himself.

The various stories about Mars absence from the State of the Union address rank right up there in media mythology with the claims the new Bush space policy is a sham because it wasn’t accompanied with a trillion dollars extra money for NASA.
