Halliburton Can Make The Umbrellas

(Sydney Morning Herald) US urges scientists to block out sun …I had to get a paper from OZ to find out about this??

(Financial Times) Bush ‘distorted’ climate change reports …Has the Financial Times gone pinko? 😀

Hush, Little Baby, Don’t You Cry…

(AP) House GOP shut out despite promises

“It is tough to be in the minority, isn’t it? I feel your pain,” Majority Leader Steny Hoyer. The AP article claims that Democrats lorded it over the Republicans for 40 years before the last 12 years, but I can’t recall anything as bad as the last 4 years. Talk about pigs at the trough! Does anyone else recall secret midnight votes? Voting on bills that hadn’t even been printed up yet? I thought not.

(AP) Bush chides Dems on reflexive response

It HAS to be partisan–otherwise, they’d be in favor of MY war leadership without question. Check your own party Georgie, lots of them are having a reflexive partisan response against the war too 🙂

They Say A Sociopath Is Marked By A Lack Of Empathy…

(AP) White House touts health care savings Some quotes from this: The administration flack, Karen Davis, (oops, I mean Spokesperson for the Commonwealth Fund) said “‘Typically, the person working in the mail room has the same health coverage as the person working as an executive,’ Davis said.” Yeah, what planet are YOU on honey? Let’s hear from John Goodman, president and CEO of the National Center for Policy Analysis, “‘It’s not unusual at all to find the guys at the top with the most lavish plan,’ Goodman said. While more than 100 million people would get a tax break, the administration estimates, more than 55 percent of the uninsured _ about 25 million people _ have such low incomes that they pay no income taxes, Davis said. So the tax changes would not make insurance any more affordable for them, she said

The old saying still holds, “Them that got, gets.”
