The vote was meaningless. The congress does not give orders to deploy troops. Also, the vast majority of those who voted have no skin in the game, i.e. they are not veterans and do not have children serving in the armed forces. The president’s defense this week is not original. It is heard in traffic court every week. Judge: You are accused of driving 50 mph in a 35 mph zone. Do you have anything to say? Defendant: Your honor, everyone was driving 50, I was merely keeping up with traffic. Judge: If everyone drove off a cliff, would you drive off the cliff? Defendant: No, your honor.

merica’s Least Wanted Another Bush earns his place on a Rushmore for the rejected. By Bruce Reed Updated Friday, Nov. 18, 2005, at 2:09 PM ET

Friday, Nov. 18, 2005

Sinker: Back in August, when George W. Bush crossed the Mendoza Line with a disapproval rating in the Gallup Poll of 56 percent, he still had four men left to pass for the title of most unpopular president in modern history: Jimmy Carter (59 percent), George H. W. Bush (60 percent) Richard Nixon (66 percent), and Harry Truman (67 percent). I predicted that the way things were going, he could speed past Carter and Bush 41 “within the next month.”

I was wrong—it took the president two months. This week’s Gallup puts his disapproval at 60 percent, which means father and son share third place on the all-time list. Bush 43 always said he learned an important political lesson from Bush 41, and now we know what it was: Don’t hit bottom too early. If you’re going to be the third-most unpopular president, do it in your second term, so you have some time to stop and smell the Rose Garden.

It’s an awesome achievement for one family to produce two of the four most unpopular presidents in modern times. If there were a Mount Rushmore for rejection, the Bushes would have half the place to themselves.

With the holidays coming, you can bet there will be a lot of good-natured joshing in the highly competitive Bush household about which man deserves full bragging rights. Bush the father, whose favorite sport was speed golf, can boast of his prowess in speed failure. Truman needed seven years to hit bottom, Nixon six, and Bush the son five. The elder Bush tanked in three and a half.

On the other hand, Bush the son may not have to wait long before he has the crown to himself. His unpopularity has been rising two points a month all year, which gives him an outside shot of catching Nixon by January.

The Bush White House is certainly doing everything in its power to fail on all fronts. Soaring heating oil prices, Republican chaos in Congress, and more trouble from the special prosecutor will help. But with Iraqi elections and the State of the Union coming up, it could take Bush as much as six months to pass Nixon and Truman. The president needs to remember the patience that got him this far: Rome wasn’t lost in a day.

Of course we could still have this guy:

And, perhaps most striking, in a discussion of climate change, Clinton cast the war on terrorism as a blip on the radar of history: “[W]e have become arrogant in the present. All of us. Osama bin Laden’s arrogant in the present. I mean, he really thinks it matters if he blows us up and kicks a few thousand American soldiers out of Saudi Arabia or whatever. And we really think it matters if we blow him up, more than how we all live and how people will be living 100 years from now.”

House of Cards

Republican leaders sat in shock in the House of Representatives as they watched a $142.5 billion spending bill for health and education go down in defeat. It was the worst such loss for the Republican majority in a decade as 22 members stood with a united Democratic Party. The mostly moderate Republicans objected to cuts in popular social welfare programs and, in some cases, the lack of earmarked pork barrel projects. It was not until the dark hours of Friday morning, with the lure of the Thanksgiving recess looming, that party leaders were able to eke out a symbolically important deficit-reduction bill—by two votes. And that came only after Republicans restored money to entitlement programs such as Medicaid and food stamps and appeased moderates by agreeing not to open the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling, a top Bush administration priority since he was elected in 2000. Before the vote, fiscal conservative Rep. Mike Pence (news, bio, voting record), an Indiana Republican, framed the debate starkly: “If this bill fails, the Republican revolution is over.”

It was that kind of week. Accustomed to battling Democrats across the aisle, Republicans have instead taken aim at one another in Congress and across Washington at the White House. A party that has largely marched in lockstep with the President over the past five years—successfully passing tax cuts, a prescription drug plan, and the No Child Left Behind act—now appears to be stumbling on a variety of issues, including an unusual public challenge by the president’s own party to the White House’s Iraq war policy.

With the president’s percentage approval rating in the mid-30s, the lowest point of his presidency, and the war in Iraq proving an albatross for the party, Republicans have started to distance themselves from the Bush administration as they look ahead to the 2006 midterm elections (it may be slight comfort, but polls also show that voters hold an equally dismal view of congressional Republicans and Democrats). The fault lines, present for years, are now more apparent in the absence of the iron-fisted leadership of former Majority Leader Tom DeLay. “The precipitous plunge in the polls for the president has created a great unease among Republicans,” says Thomas Mann, a congressional expert at the Brookings Institution. “They now seriously entertain that they could lose their majority in one or both houses of Congress during the midterm elections.” That would leave Republicans in a situation similar to the one Democrats faced in the 1994 election when President Bill Clinton’s early legislative travails led to a decisive Republican victory.

Hanging over Republicans is the steady erosion of the public’s support for the war. A CNN/ USA Today /Gallup poll showed that 63 percent of the public opposes the president’s handling of Iraq. The White House tried to go on the offensive and criticize Democrats for questioning the administration’s use of prewar intelligence, saying Congress had access to the same data as the president and calling such questions “dishonest and reprehensible.” Instead, the White House was forced back on its heels after Republicans in the Senate overwhelmingly joined Democrats, in a 79-to-19 vote, to push the administration for greater oversight of the war—although an earlier effort by Democrats would have been more stringent and required a timetable to withdraw troops.

ndiscipline. “I think he [Bush] has lost his grip on the decision-making process. It’s not just trying to distance yourself for election reasons,” says Mickey Edwards, a former eight-term Republican congressman from Oklahoma. “I think it’s a deeper disagreement.” The Senate and White House have been sharply at odds over proposed legislative restrictions to harsh interrogations in the war on terrorism, with the Senate passing a bill that outlaws cruel and degrading treatment of detainees. The move succeeded over the objections of Vice President Dick Cheney. who had personally lobbied on Capitol Hill for the CIA to be exempted. The House will consider a version of the bill, but the White House has already threatened a veto.

As the split between the White House and Capitol Hill widens, fiscal conservatives and moderates in the party have broken out in a brawl after Hurricane Katrina and the war in Iraq swelled the budget. Conservatives say the stakes have never been higher: “We are simply on an unsustainable trend on spending,” says Rep. Jeff Flake (news, bio, voting record), an Arizona Republican. “If we can’t even take this miniscule step toward fiscal responsibility, then we’re done as a functioning majority. You have members who simply will turn their cannon fire away from Democrats and toward their own leadership.”

Despite the infighting, Republicans have managed to notch some legislative wins, including a Senate bill that would extend tax cuts. They are also working toward an agreement to extend the Patriot Act. As lawmakers head home to their districts for recess, they are likely to get an earful from grumpy constituents. For those in contested races—and there may be more of those than expected—that may mean continuing to distance themselves from the party and the president.

Although oddly some things they say over and over for years suddenly disappear down a rabbit hole.

Let’s be clear: There is nothing wrong with honest criticism of an American president; to the contrary, we have written extensively about President Bush’s policy failures.

That media thing only works for Democrats. Every speech by either side has good and bad parts and is responded to immediately by the other side.

For Dems they play the good parts of the speech and the most petty of the responses and vice versa.

Who, but the media, could keep Harry Reid from looking like a complete airhead?

Reagan could talk over the press directly to us. Bush isn’t good at that, but is great speaking to a group, especially military.

I think the vote last night was a good move. Then I was wondering how Luckovich would picture this. Will Serrano, Wexler & McKinney be the three blind mice? Or the three musketeers? Will the other reprsentative be lemmings? Somehow he will have to make the president look bad, always his goal. I’d like a cartoon of him with Tucker and Bookman, all crying in their beer saying “What happened?”

Dusty,

They will take a poll with a question like,” Do you think elected officials should use political stunts?”

Then when about 80% say no, they’ll run a screaming headline: American People Overwhelmingly Reject Delay, Bush, Cheney, Rove Stunt with a subhead 80% reject latest Bush boondoggle

Then the next day the cartoons will start.

The train was quite crowded, so the U.S. Marine walked the entire length looking for a seat, but the only seat left was taken by a well-dressed, middle-aged, French woman’s poodle.

The war-weary Marine asked, “Ma’am, may I have that seat?”

The French woman just sniffed and said to no one in particular, Americans are so rude. My little Fifi is using that seat.

The Marine walked the entire train again, but the only seat left was under that dog. “Please, ma’am. May I sit down? I’m very tired.”

She snorted, “Not only are you Americans rude, you are also arrogant!”

This time the Marine didn’t say a word, he just picked up the little dog, tossed it out the train window, and sat down.

The woman shrieked, Someone must defend my honor! Put this American in his place!”

An English gentleman sitting nearby spoke up, “Sir, you Americans often seem to have a penchant for doing the wrong thing. You hold the fork in the wrong hand. You drive your autos on the wrong side of the road. And now, sir, you’ve thrown the wrong b-itch out the window.

Bearing his gifts and his services

For the name of Miss Plame

But the boxes were empty

The stockings were bare

And the libs were all shrieking

Up on the roof

The word of 5 German military officers about WMD intelligence sends the pinkos off running in circles. The word of 5 U.S. Army officers who said that we knew who Mohammed Atta was while Clinton was still in office and the the libs could hardly care. Does anyone still wonder who our true enemies are?

O.K. class, listen closely, there is going to be a test. WMD intelligence is gathered by the CIA. Remember, Dick Cheney is too busy torturing detainees to be snooping around for atom bombs. So he has to rely on people like, let’s say, Valerie Plame, who holds the title of WMD analyst, to uncover this evidence.

After Colin Powell vets, or verifies, the evidence given to him by people such as Mrs. Joseph Wilson, he then sends it to the Senate Intelligence Committee where Jay Rockefeller sits. After they vet it, it goes to the Vice President and finally the President’s office.

So why isn’t the slogan “CIA Valerie Lied! Children Died!” used more often? Anybody have an answer for me?

This is taken from PMSNBC:

A conspicuous exception was former deputy secretary of State Richard Armitage, whose office would only say, “We’re not commenting.”

If Armitage was the original leaker, that undercuts the argument (wacko conspiracy theory) that outing Plame was a plot by the hard-liners in the veep’s office to “out” Plame. Armitage was, if anything, a foe of the neocons who did not want to go to war in Iraq.

Another example of Dems supporting the troops at home: An English professor at Warren County Community College in New Jersey is defending an e-mail he sent a student encouraging soldiers in Iraq to shoot their commanders. John Daly wrote freshman Rebecca Beach that he’d urged students to boycott a speech by an Iraq war veteran, sponsored by the conservative group Young Americans for Freedom, saying, “Real freedom will come when soldiers in Iraq turn their guns on their superiors.” Daly is refusing to apologize, saying he was merely standing up to “an ultra right-wing, possibly fascist, group.”

Andy,

Great Mark Steyn article you posted. I love this part:

But the only way to know the country is to be there on the ground, in some form or other. I’m all for “Iraqification” — though those Democrats urgently demanding everything be done by the locals will be the first to shriek in horror once the Iraqis start serious score-settling with the foreign insurgents. But, even with full-scale Iraqification, America would be grossly irresponsible if not clinically insane not to maintain some sort of small residual military presence somewhere in the western desert.

Sorry, but that’s part of the deal of being the world’s hyperpower. To pretend otherwise is an exit strategy from reality. If you’re worried about the ”cost,” stop garrisoning your wealthiest allies — Germany, Japan et al. — and thereby absolving them from stepping up to the traditional responsibilities of nationhood.

One expects nothing from the Democrats. Their leaders are men like Jay Rockefeller, Democrat of West Virginia, who in 2002 voted for the war and denounced Saddam Hussein as an “imminent threat” and claimed that Iraq could have nuclear weapons by 2007 if not earlier. Now he says it’s Bush who “lied” his way into war with a lot of scary mumbo-jumbo about WMD.

There are countless other examples of human suffering about which we are doing nothing and care even less. TO HELL WITH THE IRAQIS!

And don’t waste your time, I don’t support Hillary.

A chicken hawk is someone like Saxby who doubted the patriotism of a triple amputee. When asked during the campaign about Vietnam, Saxby said he had “bad knees.” Actually he got a school deferment.

It has been awhile since the Dems have had a President that was good on defense and national security, probably all the way back to JFK.

Military budgets should be up since we’re in a war (which I disagree with). But services are declining - artificial limbs, hospital pay, psychiatric services (no joke on the latter, it’s really important).

As for Max, come on. He didn’t lose three limbs just so he could run for Senate. Even if he had just stubbed his toe on the tarmac, it’s a lot closer than GW ever got to Vietnam.

The only reason I bring up military service is because many of the neocons on this site frame their discussions in terms of “strength” and “weakness.” I think it’s wrong for GW to stuff a cod piece in his flight uniform and play “flyboy.” I also think it’s wrong for Kerry to play up his medals.

Candide, here you go. In 1995, when the VENONA transcripts were declassified, further detailed information was revealed about Soviet espionage in the U.S. VENONA specifically references at least 349 people in the U.S.—including citizens, immigrants, and permanent residents—whom the NSA identified engaged in clandestine activities with Soviet intelligence agencies. It is generally believed that McCarthy had no access to VENONA intelligence, but VENONA supports the view that some of the individuals accused by McCarthy were indeed Soviet agents. These are several prominent examples:

At the very least, McCarthy was responsible for uncovering Lawrence Duggan. Duggan was a full fledged communist spy for the Soviet Union. His best friend was Edward R. Murrow who also acted as his chief propagandist.

Being a political junked I kept up on politics. When I first moved to BR I was shocked by the overt corruption in state and local govt. Then, I was angered by it, finally, I became sick of it. Check out the record ot the levee board. And, your idiot New Orlenas mayor and dysfuntional governor are to blame for much of the devastation.

Growing up in the McCarthy era I remember how we were terrorized about communists under every bed, the possibility of atomic warfare, the need for bomb shelters, etc. What a time! It turns out of course that the Soviets were much more threatening verbally than actually and that we pretty much manufactured the Cold War for our own geo-political ends, like we have manufactured the Islamo threat today long before it was evident in any way. America has long been an international trouble maker. All our enemies we have manufactured and they have then gone on to threaten us according to our written script. The tragedy is that the American public does not realize how powerful American rightist propaganda really is.

*The word of 5 German military officers about WMD intelligence sends the pinkos off running in circles. The word of 5 U.S. Army officers who said that we knew who Mohammed Atta was while Clinton was still in office and the the libs could hardly care. Does anyone still wonder who our true enemies are?

O.K. class, listen closely, there is going to be a test. WMD intelligence is gathered by the CIA. Remember, Dick Cheney is too busy torturing detainees to be snooping around for atom bombs. So he has to rely on people like, let’s say, Valerie Plame, who holds the title of WMD analyst, to uncover this evidence.

After Colin Powell vets, or verifies, the evidence given to him by people such as Mrs. Joseph Wilson, he then sends it to the Senate Intelligence Committee where Jay Rockefeller sits. After they vet it, it goes to the Vice President and finally the President’s office.

So why isn’t the slogan “CIA Valerie Lied! Children Died!� used more often? Anybody have an answer for me?

I’m not sure if Monica can verify this:

On October 31, 1998, Mr. Clinton signed the Iraq Liberation Act. “The United States favors an Iraq that offers its people freedom at home,” Mr. Clinton said in language later adopted by the Bush Administration. “I categorically reject arguments that this is unattainable due to Iraq’s history or its ethnic or sectarian makeup. Iraqis deserve and desire freedom like everyone else.”

Two months later, while announcing a three-day bombing of Iraq, Mr. Clinton added: “Heavy as they are, the cost of action must be weighed against the price of inaction. If Saddam defies the world and we fail to respond, we will face a far greater threat in the future. Saddam will strike again at his neighbors. He will make war on his own people. And mark my words, he will develop weapons of mass destruction. He will deploy them and he will use them” (our emphasis).

We would tour the St. Louis Zoo, go to some ballgames, and always stop at Meramac Caverns on the way back to the Ozarks. My dad, he will admit it, is a grumpy old man and hard to get along with at times.

Reading Lukovich’s cartoon kills brain cells. However, fortunately for all of us, it only kills half as many as reading Cynthia Tucker’s column.

Mike Lukovich is rational. Those stupid and irrational enough to be evangelical Christians naturally don’t like Mike.

The last Christian some day will be strangled in the entrails of the last Republican.

Carpe diem.

Candide: It took you 4 hours and 5 minutes to come up with that last thought? You must be taking the news about beloved brother Zarqawi pretty hard. Don’t give up hope. It looks like we haven’t slaughtered him yet.

Maybe Bush is lying!!

Look at the debate on Monday’s opinion page- The pinkos are wondering if they can get extra votes by saying that they are religious. Yeow!

P.S. Other then the pandering, the libs have it right in this opinion piece. If you are in need, your neighborhood church is a better place to turn to than any government sinkhole. And no, we won’t drag you to the alter or make you swear on a Bible.

RW, Re the Nov 19th 9pm area. I don’t know HR163 and did not know that Hillary used that “W”. Just stumbled across this section and liked the cartoon. I am a GA transplant now living in MD. Only saw one Republican that I ever trusted (or voted for) in my almost 50 years of voting.
