As of today, the Democrats stand the greatest chance of regaining the house and the presidency at the same time since Watergate. The country is in recession.

As far as I understand it, the Democrats are forcing the forces out of Iraq, against Bush's will, and the man is clearly quite frustrated about this. All this is made quite clear in his last interview with C.Rose.

So, Dylan makes a very bold claim. That Bush 'Got Lucky.. (And).. He can do whatever he wants (AP Interview)'.

Can he Dylan? Can he? Could he get a third term? A majority in the house for the Republicans? A chance of a pro-Bush (As McCain is not kicking the ball into the same net exactly) candidate elected as President? A chance of a Republican as President?

So, what again was this monumental conspiracy meant to carry out? Why style this artistic event 6 years ago? For what? The police state? Good luck with that fictional situation.

Why not a simple nuclear explosion in a few cities in the Midwest every Thanksgiving, keeping the population on its toes? Is that too much to ask for over Cheney's afternoon turkey?

But, once again you prove to be the common ancestor of the creationists. For whatever happens, "that is simply part of the NWO's (God's) plan".

what? I'm unaware of the democrats being able to do anything about the war. Last I heard the generals in charge mentioned drawing down troops at the end of the year if things continue going well.
 
If that is true, perhaps I'm wrong on that point. However, the regained house hardly takes the pressure off the architects of the war.

right, I mean I agree with your point. It was political pressure that cause him to add more troops in the first place. To say he can do whatever he wants is demonstratively false.

The Democrats could vote to stop funding the war. They could pass a bill on condition that 'here is all the money you will ever get for this war, you better use it to get the troops home before it runs out'. The Democrats in Congress still control the pursestrings, despite the fact that they have lacked the political courage to use it for anything meaningful with respect to Iraq.

Right they could do that. They could also elect Ron Paul speaker of the house, but they are going to. That's the thing about our system of govt. Everybody's constrained by someone. Be it congress, the supreme court, or the people.
 
Leaving aside that Bush is constitutionally barred from a third term, and the fact that no one except possibly Laura and the twins would vote for him if he could run, the Republican candidates are avoiding any mention of Bush or his policies like the plague. They're not even using words that start with "B".

Anyway, US public opinion won't allow the new President, whoever it is, to keep the troops in Iraq. They'll have to start coming home in large numbers early in 2009 or the new Pres will have a very hard way to go indeed.
