Just remember, tomorrow night, when the idiot King tries to tell the American people how good things are:

1) Iraq is a mess. There is no other valid interpretation.

2) The US economy is slowing. The debt binge of recent years is taking its toll. The US savings rate was negative in 2005 - for the first time since 1933.

3) The US economy is dependent on oil. This has caused geopolitical, environmental and economic problems. WTI oil is at $68 per barrel - near the all time high. Bush's policies promote the use of MORE oil.

4) The on-budget deficit will be close to $600 Billion this year and is getting worse. Bush will claim he will cut the deficit in half by 2009, but he has no credibility on the budget:

On January 29, 2002, George W. Bush said in his State of the Union Address: "... our budget will run a deficit that will be small and short-term". He was sure wrong - he has been consistently wrong on the budget.
