  • Barefoot for Bush


    Susannah, I'm surprised at you: Can't you see how much we've accomplished in Iraq, that Bushie was pelted with shoes and not IEDs? ("We will be hailed as liberators. They will throw flowers. Or boots; stuff happens.'') Can you imagine footwear flying at any other world leader, and the only response being laughter all around the world? I am for peaceful demonstrations, and in these tough economic times would not waste any Louboutins on our soon-to-be ex. But used Payless sandals, maybe, left in front of the White House? Barefoot for Bush could really catch on.
  • When Will Bush Go To Prison?


    Last weekend, I finally got the chance to finish watching Frontline's excellent two-part, four-hour series, "Bush's War," which recounts in excruciating detail the events leading up to the Iraq war and the events of the war itself. I'm sure some will dismiss the series as radical, far-left propaganda.

    But can someone please remind me why Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, and the lot of them aren't in prison?
