i thought lieberman's whole thing was that even as an independent he'd align with democrats?
what a douchebag.
He does on mostly everything except the war.
Bush is starting to infuriate me again (its been dormant for a while). How can he be so stubborn and arrogant when the majority of government and the american people are seeking dealines for pullout?
And now we have Iran acting out. That shit worries me. America is NOT safer. We are more hated than ever before, and our army and $ are depleted to dangerous levels.
Bush is out of touch beyond description when both houses pass bills with deadlines and he still talks like it's total nonsense and he'll veto it. Never mind that Congress is still about a year behind public opinion. Too bad we're not actually a democracy because we'd have been out of Iraq awhile ago, oh yeah we wouldn't have gone in.
The Irainian Supreme Council has deemed those British sailors "enemy combatants" and they will be tried by a Revolutionary Guard military tribunal, all on the up-and-up. Since they already confessed to their crimes its not looking good and will most likely be hung in public. But it seems they will get a faster trial then those at old Gitmo and maybe even less torture was involved.
While that is unfortunate for those involved and their families, let's hope the Administration can take a lesson to see what our policies look like from the other side. But you're right, they avoid rotting away without charges for 5 years, which is a benefit.
