We have an agreement on "nucular" arms reductions and at last a chill regarding the Israeli state's relentless theft of Palestinian land - progress unimaginable under the lunatic last administration - facts that I suppose will be disputed by numbskull lowbrow rightists.

He said his health care was under $900B. It isn't close. He said it cuts costs. It increases them. A lot. It violates our constitution in several ways, among them by adding government surveillance of people's health conditions and financial affairs, enforced by the IRS. He's reaffirmed and increased the Patriot Act. He has, in general, continued all the Bush policies that Democrats so demonized. He's seized companies, then given them to his friends. He talks to our enemies and abandons our friends. I especially like his "Nukes for North Korea" program. A breath of fresh air, indeed. -- Cheers, James Arthur |
