"We must have a foreign policy that is both strong and smart. Yes, the Republicans have been strong, but they haven't been smart. And the policy is one big mess, everyone knows it."

View Article  Bush's successful wars
The new National Intelligence Estimate released this week stated that Bush's War on Terror has caused more terrorism and increased the number of terrorists.

Another report recently released says that Bush's war on drugs has actually increased drug use. Amazingly, even after learning that their television ads aimed at teens ("Here's your brain. Here's your brain on drugs") was completely ineffective and actually making them curious about drugs, the Bush administration spent another $200 million on the ads.

Knowing their record of success, maybe Bush should declare war on oil. Within a year of declaring war on oil, we'll have ...   more »

The New York Times, reporting on Washington Post editor Bob Woodward's new book "c" about the Bush administration, says "in the weeks before the Sept. 11 attacks, Mr. Tenet believed that Mr. Rumsfeld was impeding the effort to develop a coherent strategy to capture or kill ...   more »
View Article  Republican of the Week: Alfonso Jackson
Top officials at HUD were ordered to award contracts based on politics, not price. Alphonso Jackson, the corrupt head of the Dallas Housing authority who became Bush's Secretary of Housing, is under investigation, according to the Dallas Morning News.

In a speech in Dallas, Jackson bragged that he stopped a deal with one contractor because that contractor had made negative comments about Bush. He said contracts should go to Bush supporters and be withheld from Democratic donors. The department's internal investigators reported that no favoritism is being shown.

The News reports, "It is a violation of federal procurement law to ...   more »
