How often do these things end up in a firefight?

George W. and his brother the Gov.

And if this is the case, how can the government still be "for the people"?

Sure, we're all equal.......but pigs are more equal.

OK - i know some of you like Howard Dean, but WTF??? yesterday i heard him calling in to two different shows on Air America. I'm not sure who the host of the first one was - it was a guy. but the second one was Randi Rhoades.

Dean was pitching the website/pledgesite he has set up so that you can have $$$ auto withdrawn from your account everymonth to be spent combatting the Republicans. OK, nothing new there. but then he went on a little tirade about the "neo-con supreme court" and "bush's justices" and their decision that caused a little old lady in New England to lose her home so that a Casino could be built by developers who, no doubt, contributed heavily to bushes reelection campaign.

what the hell? if that is a neo-con packed bench i'd like to know how. none of them has been appointed by Bush. the two justices that most left leaning individuals bemoan voted against it. it was the traditionally left of center justices who voted in favor of the eminent domain decision.

that, of course, didn't stop Dean from asking for money to stop this stripping of your property rights by the republicans. it also didn't stop Rhoades from burying her tongue further up Dean's rectum. but what the hell does truth matter, right?

I don't know. You tell me, Lookout. Is Bush a neocon? One justice, Thomas, I think, was appointed by Bush Sr. Seven of the supremes were appointed by republican presidents - mainly Reagan. So tell me how the two Clinton appointees were able to overwhelm their fellow justices and sneak through this decision about eminent domain in the face of the opposition of the other seven? Was the decision which allowed the Hollywood thing to come down made at some time in the past when the Supreme Court had a majority of justices appointed by dems?

The court is a republican appointed court. Bush is a republican. What's wrong with Dean calling it "Bush's court"? Has Jr made public pronouncements distancing himself from recent court decisions?

What's wrong with a politician asking for campaign contributions from those who agree with his viewpoint? Just what was the decision that allows this particluar land grab and when was it made? It would be nice if you'd inform us of these things before going off on a bad tempered tirade. Why do you listen to talk radio, anyhow? There's better ways to become politically informed, IMO.

And why have you been in such a bad temper lately? Sales down?
