CRAWFORD, Texas - President Bush's final-year agenda is a stripped down list of what he can realistically hope to get done, since the clout he once touted is fading away.

Bush will venture to four other continents, get more involved than ever in trying to forge Middle East peace, and continue to command two wars that assure his relevancy to the end. As Iraq improves, he must now deal with renewed violence in Afghanistan and upheaval in Pakistan.

At home, Bush will try to extend two domestic achievements that are dear to his legacy - the No Child Left Behind education law, and tax cuts that otherwise expire in 2010.

Long gone are the big ideas of Social Security and immigration reform, which collapsed on Capitol Hill. His final State of the Union speech in late January is expected to reflect today's policy reality, eschewing new initiatives in favor of unfinished proposals..........

Iraq hasn't improved. Chimpenfurher is relevant only insofar as he can obstruct justice. His clout isn't 'fading', it's in the crapper, where it belongs.

Maybe I'm going out on a limb here, but I do not see Commander Guy 'eschewing' anything in 2008. He will continue to confound and astound with additional gems from the Rove/Cheney/Bolton agenda until the bitter (well, for him anyway) end.

HA! Agenda.

Let's see . . .

"1. Continue to fuck the middle class and poor, soldiers, minorities, the elderly. Yep, doing a heckuva job there. Let's keep it up!"

WHAT agenda?

This dique couldn't SPELL "agenda", let alone have one.

The sooner this nightmare ends and the newly elected Democratic president takes over, fumigates the Bewsh stench out of the White House, restores order and starts the unenviable process of reversing all of the damage this stain on the face of American History has caused, the better off we'll ALL be.

Jesus H GOD it's fucking TIME!!!!!

YAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!! :bounce:

a daylight savings time if you will...:bounce:
