Bush History - Disgraced Lobbyist Abramoff's Bush Ties, & Soldiers Lost in Iraq are an "investment"?
Disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff's White House ties are in the news, as papers report on a plea deal in the works (giving us the chance to mention President Omar Bongo and a $9 million dollar coincidence). Also Condoleezza Rice coldly considers soldier's lives lost in Iraq to be an "investment". And a Bushism or two.

2004: President Bush says today “It’s a time of sorrow and sadness when we lose a loss of life.”


What a fucking idiot.

We got 30 days to go ...

I really should download a countdown clock. That would be nice, esp when it hits zeros!
