"I'm Mad as Hell and I'm Not Going to Take it Anymore!" Remember "Network"? Watch it again real soon; compare today's Cable and TV news. That movie was dead on. Today, Truth, Justice & the American Way are all in peril and I am mad as hell. Here are my cantankerous takes on recent news and politics and other things that go bump in my brain.

Getting the Job Done. . .

It seems that George Bush has stopped staying the course on staying the course. Apparantly, his handlers think it makes him sound out of touch and inflexible. The policy isn't changing though. Just what it's called. Yes, they really have that little respect for the intelligence of the average American.

Bush's new catch phrase is "get the job done." As in "we're going to go right on wasting the lives of Americas bravest, killing thousands, injuring tens of thousands of soldiers until we get the job done."

I'll bite. What's the job?

We went to Iraq to prevent Saddaam from using his WMD's. There are no WMD's.
We went to Iraq to remove Saddaam from power.
Mission Accomplished.

So what is the job? It can't be nation-building. Bush swore during the election that he would not engage in nation building. . . that nation building was the stuff of liberals and Democrats like Bill Clinton.

So tell us Mr. Bush. What job do we have to do? What has to happen for you to say "the job is done"? What do we need to do to leave Iraq? They are killing our children. They are killing each other. They don't want us there. They want us there even less than we want to be there. Every day makes matters worse.

Just tell me. How do we get the job done if we don't even know what the job is?
