Jus so you know I spend a lot of time on the road. Driving is like second nature and as of late constantly listening to hip hop seems more and more difficult. So been listening to a lot of NPR .... a whole lot of NPR, which means I have heard a little too much about Harriet Miers and the new tactics this week to get her nomination through. I am just wondering would a Corporation of any stature be able to change their course on a weekly basis for their newest product. Well maybe we will try this strategy this week. This administration inability to do anything correctly baffles me. Lets take a look at a few things that have happened during this administration. First of all another man wins the popular vote and Bush becomes President anyways. We went to Afghanistan to find Osama, still looking jus can't seem to find him. Oh and by the way the parliamentary elections in Afghanistan have resulted in the election of multiple war lords and also some of the members of the previous Taliban Regime. We go to Iraq looking for weapons of mass destruction, we don't find any, lucky for us we find good ol Sadaam hiding in a cave. Deadlines come and go for our withdrawal and nothing happens, every so called success is clouded by the information that the insurgency isn't getting weaker perhaps there resolve is getting stronger. As if our inability to do anything well abroad isn't bad enough. A major hurricane wipes out a whole city and our beloved president continues his vacation for a couple of days. Lets look at the aspects of vacation, our current president has taken more vacation then any other president in the history of our country in a time when the citizens are enjoying less vacations then ever before. I could keep ranting but I will quote what Churchill once said and then pose a question. "Any 20 year-old who isn't a liberal doesn't have a heart, and any 40 year-old who isn't a conservative doesn't have a brain." Although this may be true I am wondering why the conservative leadership doesn't seem to have a brain. I will just post a few quotes from a former Republican VP and our beloved current President.
