Is it time to bring back "White House In Crisis" as a news show theme?
Yesterday we were told turning over power and getting out of iraq quicker was the goal of the White House due to a change of strategy. Unclear as the message was, now we have bush telling us we will stay until saadam is found. Furthermore, just a few months back, he stated that finding saadam was not a big deal.

What is it? We are now subjected, yet again, as was in pre-war with iraq, to day to day conflict in position.

It appears that it is not just Iraq in chaos, but so is the White House.

"White House In Crisis" was used by Fox,MSNBC and CNN during the monica fiasco. I think it is more fitting and justified at the moment.

Is it just me?

1. It'll never happen
They haven't said a single word about the sham the 9/11 commission and the White House agreed to, why would they do this?

Nope, Freedom is dead in Amerika. It died on December 12, 2000.

2. Focus groups are unfocused.
Since he has no moral/intellectual compass and the focus groups are giving conflicting opinions, he's stumbling around looking like the idiot he really is.

We knew this was a big mistake, there is no "win" here for us. Just the degree of loss we wish to sustain.

3. Where's Spitting Image when you need them?
Perhaps they should take a cue from what the British Spitting Image troupe did for one NBC special on Reagan years ago and call it "The President's Brain Is Missing". (And I guess the Freepers would go apoplectic at the thought of *those* old shows being re-aired nowdays. Too bad, it was some classic political humor.)

Hammies!

If only Gore's television network were up and running, we might see some fine parodies, too.
