Bush Press Conference/Hitchcock's "Notorious"

As I watched Bush* digging himself deeper and deeper into a hopeless, irrevocable state of political expendability and saw the faces of the party faithful, I was reminded of Claude Raines character Alex Sebastian in the Hitchcock thriller "Notorious", also starring Cary Grant as CIA agent Devlin and Ingrid Bergman as Alicia Huberman, daughter of a suspected Nazi Spy.

I immediately thought of the following scene:

"In the final sequence, Devlin carries Alicia outside to his car in which Sebastian pleads with Devlin to let him join them. He fears for his life, for the other Nazi conspirators wait for him at his front door. Instead of bloodbath execution, Hitchcock ends it with a simple request from one of the Nazis: "Alex, will you come in, please? I wish to talk to you."

The door closes behind Sebastian as he enters; the audience knows that his time has come."

Did anyone else get that feeling with Bush* tonight? That the jig is up and the party knows it. He is more of a liablity than an asset.

just IF he'll win the election for them, and the sitting president is de facto best candidate even if it's pass-out-in-your-own-puke (Pretzels my sweet azz!) Georgie Boy Bush.

..and if he can't win legitimately, there's always cheating on the "new, improved voting machines", now appearing in many more states than Florida!


Look - they CAN'T admit they're wrong, they don't give a poop if the Majority votes for the opposition -- what's going to stop them from stealing the election(s)?

Really? And HOW will we ever really know?

They've got the press in their pocket. They've got a 3 branches of government, and I can't believe they'd let something minor as not having enough votes stop them!

It's FAR from beyond them.
