Click on the Youtube video. It’s the Buckingham Palace band playing our national anthem shortly after 9/11.

That was one of the lovliest gestures I recall from that week. I wanted to thank them personally.

“A couple of people close
to the lieberman campaign told me Liebermans internals are showing him down by “a couple”.
The trend is intact as every poll has shown.The Lieberman camps product can not be sold.

I expect Schlesingers numbers to start rising to double digits soon.

I’m looking at another one that has Lamont up
Lamont (D) 50.2%
Schlesinger (R) 2.0%
Lieberman (CfL) 46.7%
MoE 1.3%
Still verifying whether these are real numbers or not though.

If you want to push your theories, as they have said several times, start your own blog.

I don’t know I’m telling you all this, I guess just so you (and all of you) can know me a little better. And maybe cause I feel a little guilty that I can’t cry anymore. I just can’t. That place was just too dark, too deep.

I’m so sorry. I watched my brother-in-law struggle after his traumatic experience (recounted what happened to him on a previous thread) for at least a year. He did go to the counseling that was provided (how do you get images of people jumping out of your head?). And his family was traumatized – including his pre-schoolers. When he went back to work at the WFC, my sister had anxiety attacks every day – particularly because he took the subway.

Every time BushCo/Rove jerks people around using the “terror card” so they can win elections – they are not just terrorizing the general American population – they are inflicting indescribable pain and suffering on all who were directly impacted – as well as their families. For that alone they should should be run out of town on a rail.

It’s not a coincidence that 80% of NYC residents voted for Kerry in 2004.

Words cannot describe how disgusted I am with the opportunistic cowards who are running our government right now. They appear incapable of having any compassion for anyone – our military & their families – people who were directly or even indirectly impacted by 9/11.

I hope there will be a day of reckoning.

GPB– I completely get it. Sometimes I despair that America as we know and love it will survive the BushCo assault.

But I also know that a demoralized populace is an easy target for the Totali-barians in the White House.

So when I’m feeling especially bleak, I think of the video clip that was taken of Bush when he was running for governor of Texas where he gives the camera the one finger salute. And I imagine a thought balloon above his pointy little head with the word SUCKERS! in capital letters. And I buck up and go on.

We can’t let the sorry-ass bastards get us down. America needs us.

I can’t speak for anyone else, but demorallized as I am, I’m not in any danger of being hornschwaggled by the sub-human motherfuckers in the White House.

But I see a major republican victory in November…and in 2008…because it appears progressives are not willing to fight hard enough. :(

You reference the AUMF for Afghanistan of 9/14/01. The AUMF for Iraq of 10/11/02 states

SEC. 3. AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES.
(a) AUTHORIZATION- The President is authorized to use the Armed Forces of the United States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate in order to–
(1) defend the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq; and
(2) enforce all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq.

It has the same Wars Powers limitations as the previous AUMF.
