"Nolo Bastardo Carborundum"
(Don't let the bastards wear you down)
*
- Item: The Karl Rove/Valerie Plame Story. Double standard in all its glory. What do you think the champions of law and order, high moral values Republicans would have done if this happened during the Clinton presidency!
- Item: Battle for the Supreme Court. Announcement of Chief Justice Rehnquist's retirement cannot be far off. The Senate Democrats must not let their guard down after meeting with the president on July 12th. The president's wishes are known (in 1999, he publicly stated his admiration for Justices Scalia and Thomas) and he has his conservative base to appease. It would be naive to expect him to announce nominees who do not fit the mold. Overturning Roe v Wade is on the agenda. Among other targets: Family and Medical Leave Act.
- Item: Iraq - Death toll and platitudes. So far in July, 13 U.S. soldiers have lost their lives. Total since beginning of the war - Dead 1758 Injured 13190
- "Washington is electrified with the abundant energy of buzz from a scandal -- speculation about Rove, about Bush, about Cheney's aide, Scooter Libby. Who leaked? Who may have lied? How did Novak slip the noose? But the real scandal is the ongoing mess in Iraq, the murder just the other day of innocent children (is there any other kind?) and the false notion that, somehow, taking out Hussein would make us all safer. London gives the lie to that." Richard Cohen in The Washington Post July 14, 2005.
