Nice Nasty Chicken Coop Poltics

Didn't surprise me when Bush first nominated Miers. He had to nominate a woman. And it didn't surprise me that Miers didn't have the best credentials to be a Supreme Court Justice.
Why?

Because I'm southern. And I'm very well aware of Nice Nasty Politics.

Give the enemy what she wants. Dumb her down so bad, that the enemy chicks can't see the real hen that is moving into the hen house-Salito. What surprises me is that so many people fell for it. Bush had no intention of placing Miers in that position. It was an act. Now both parties have chilled out and signed. We have a rooster. Cockadoodle Do.

Rice Trumps Cheney

Paul Bedard at USNEWS posts:

Sparked by today's Washington Post story that suggests Vice President Cheney's office is involved in the Plame-CIA spy link investigation, government officials and advisers passed around rumors that the vice president might step aside and that President Bush would elevate Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

I can deal with the weather rebalancing itself all over the world. But the term when Hell freezes over may happen in this case. Not saying that I don't like LeezaRice. She has a great coming of age story. But if Cheney "the puppet master" steps down--and I totally doubt that--then the Republican Party, the Democratic Party and America would really have to come to terms with racism in this clever culture. Unfortunately, I feel bad for LeezaRice, who has her plate full with ministering to the world... Ministering to America is something entirely different.

What do you think? You think Cheney would step down over this? Should we care? Don't we have a lot of other crap like finding cheap Christmas gifts to concern ourselves about?

Bush, Bird Flu & Forced Quarantine

President Bush and Secretary of Health and Human Services Michael Leavitt met with leaders of the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry October 7 about their role in the prevention of an influenza pandemic.

The World Health Organization has confirmed 116 human cases of bird flu and 60 deaths since December 2003.

Why haven't we known about this bird flu before now, if the WHO reported about it in 2003.
