On the road
All that talk about who's got the black vote I remember when blacks couldn't vote. As for Hillary and Obama well it took a smart man to defuse the media crazies. Yes Bill knew what to do and did it. Like always when the country has a problem call Bill. Bush did just that with the Katrina storm, he was unable to do anything as usual so he called Bill. There is not race problem in America only those who make it a problem.
I guess Bin Liden was right when he said America wouldn't have to be attacked again we are destroying ourselves. We are spending faster then 109th Congress could ok it, but getting nothing back. We give 2 Billion a day to Iraq and Americans get 0. Even a bad math student would know we're in trouble, but the President says it's ok just give me 2.9 Trillion dollars for Iraq/ and war profiteers the grandchildren can pick up the bill. I notice the Stock Market people say things are good, don't tell that to the millions who lost their money last week. It might be good for the trillion-airs but not anyone else.
No surprise about the Republican candidates. Nothing from nothing leaves nothing. Let's hope Hagal gets in for real honest leadership to give this a contest.
Brian is one of the trusted Journalist of our time and I do mean our time. We have heard once honest Journalist lie, spin and blame to cover up the corruption of the White House. Even Pulitzer Journalist have been brought and paid for by the White House. Tony Snow lies so much the truth is never heard. So as Edward R. Murrow would say truth is the only way. Brian stay safe and bring back the truth that others wont.
