The Bushies pretend that we don't want an all-access pass to Iraqi bases (we do); We don't. There is absolutely no evidence to suggest that we have ANY interest in bases in in Iraq, and Rumsfeld has clearly stated the reasons why we are NOT interested in bases there. Sorry....the radical right does not tell the truth. So I am not buying your argument. Its really clear how things work with the right.....watching how they're axe someone like Lott or Powell tells volumes. Bush doesn't fire anyone because he loves being the good guy and desperately wants to be reelected. So he sends out his minions to do the dirty work. Its pretty pathetic! And I definitely believe Ms. Dowd.......she seems to know what she's talking about. that we are not interested in influencing the disposition of Iraqi oil (we are); Again, no evidence. A good percentage of Bush's administration is made up of oil people. Now who do you think your joshing? Rick Santorum, the obnoxious Pennsylvania senator who is No. 3 in the G.O.P., equated homosexuality with incest, bigamy and polygamy. This reference is to a statement taken totally out of context, which even I thought was inappropriate until I heard it placed IN context. Typical NY Times lying. Hardly! Another bigot in the GOP has been uncovered. What worries me is that they don't even try to hide it. Unfortunately, this bag is too chicken sh*t to appear in forums where she can be called to account for her asinine remarks. The other slimeball liberal in the same category, Molly Ivins, at least will do that (although she seldom presents a cogent argument, at least she has the guts to stand up and take the questions). Ms. Dowds presents very cogently.
