This week’s “Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me” is being taped tonight at Millenium Park.
It’s free.
I don’t know if this was posted earlier as I’ve been seeing clients all day until just now. (and I have a meeting in 5 minutes, so I haven’t been able to read the comments.)

I don’t think bush is getting ready to take over our country… think he is setting Iran up for invasion and so he can do so without going thru Congress.

Nooooooooooooooo…snerk…good lord, what’s next, cocktail party commandos?

This terrifies me. I keep picturing a bunch of the guys launching attacks, moving from hit to hit at each party like Bluto from Animal House.

Here’s what in the news here in NC:

http://wral.com/news/state/story/1611560/

A former state legislator — who is also a former Baptist minister, current president of the Christian Action League, Republican — has been charged with 6 counts of aiding and abetting prostitution.

You know, it just keeps getting better, this chickens-coming-home-to-roost thing.

Does anyone have the sense that the U.S. is in a pre-revolutionary period that is lacking merely that one spark that finally propels the people into the streets to reclaim their government?

No.

Thank you for posting this link. Truly a great video. Parts of the video had me angry but not surprised and other parts had me laughing out loud.

There has to be a national march for Impeachment. That would be unprecedented.

Apparently their is a march planned for Sept. 15th. There should be more promotion of this on progressive radio and blogs. We need a minimum of 2 million people in Washington!

It’s another anti-war march sponsored by Answer.org. The thing about an “Impeachment” march is that there has never been any such thing: it would be a novelty that, unlike another anti-war rally, would genuinely startle people turning on the tv’s to see it on the news.
