"To gauge just how out of touch the Democrat leadership is on the war on terror, just close your eyes and try to imagine Ted Kennedy landing that Navy jet on the deck of that aircraft carrier." --Tom DeLay
That's remarkable propaganda -- implying that The Dimwit was at the control of the jet when it landed on the aircraft carrier. It's not a lie, because he doesn't *say* Bush was in control. It's the kind of propaganda that we've come to expect from far-right-wing, radical propagandists.
Pundits would have to point out that Bush didn't and couldn't land a jet on an aircraft carrier, and that if he tried, he would die in a fiery crash that would kill at least his co-pilot, but probably others, and cause millions of dollars in damage.

"Task Force 20" should stand down until they can be brought under control.
The right number of innocent bystanders for these guys to shoot dead is *zero*. Someone needs to issue them some roadblock equipment -- portable barriers to block off the street, signs in Arabic that say things like: "Stop". Mostly, they just have to decide they aren't going to go on these Iraqi-bystander killing binges.
There are some people in Iraq who will kill Americans no matter what, but there are plenty of people who won't help us as much if we keep killing their friends, relatives, and neighbors who just happen to be driving down the wrong street at the wrong time.

Just so you *know* the terrorism alert business is phony -- so there's no shred of doubt left in your mind -- today's Rovian terror warning coincides with the revelation that the Air Marshall program is going to stop putting marshalls on international and cross-country flights.
Umm. So far, all the terror incidents on planes were on cross-country and international flights.
While Bush shovels money to his richest campaign contributors, and Halliburton rakes in so much that no one can even count it any more, the Air Marshall program has to cut back because of budget.
Of course, they aren't the only ones Bush isn't giving enough money to. Practically any program that really improves safety is underfunded or unfunded.
I suppose the Air Marshall thing may be some bureaucrat playing hardball -- fund us or we'll cut the important stuff first. It makes for good publicity. But if they have to do this to get adequate funding, Bush should be fired.

Arianna Huffington should remove herself from the California recall ballot.
Any recognizable name will only draw more "No" votes, and thus improve chances for whichever Republican Coup-wannabe stands out from the rest.
For that matter, the rules should be changed -- one vote for the recall, followed by an election. Otherwise, people who vote against recall have no voice in who is elected. Those are separate issues that should be voted on separately.

Polls down? Warn about an unspecific terrorist threat!
licentious radio warns we could be at yellow alert soon after Labor Day -- the White House doesn't start its sales pitches in August.
When Congress returns from summer vacation, Bush will need fear of terrorism to get the unruly back in line on give-aways to his richest campaign contributors.
