At least on the surface:
-new AG nominee fails to say waterboarding is torture. In that case, Mr. Mukasey, lets put you on a waterboard and see how long it takes you to declare it torture. My vote on confirmation of this guy is now a resounding NO! We are definitely better than this...
-House vote fails to override SCHIP veto. Confirmed: President and Republicans against child health care. You know that the same guys continue to fund death and destruction in Iraq at a cost over the last five years ten times the amount requested for this new bill. I say throw them out of office and keep them out for another fifty years. We are definitely better than this.
A bit of good news:
-Senator Chris Dodd will put hold on FISA bill that would allow criminals to go scott free. In a letter to Senate Majority Leader, Dodd states that he is placing the hold because the bill "...would provide for retroactive amnesty for telecom giants that were complicit in the Bush Administration’s assault on the United States Constitution...." Bully for Dodd!
Very windy out here at the golf course. Continue to really enjoy The Book Thief. The bombing of Munich and surrounding area has started, meaning the Allies have started the counter attack on the Nazi war machine. One of the unique things about this book: Death is the narrator; he has plenty of business.
