Why Senators, are you going to betray your nation, and your Party?
That's right these fine examples of the Democratic party are voting to SUPPORT the $87 billion dollars from US pockets to Halliburtons pockets.
In the House, 118 real Democrats opposed the appropriation.
The following Senate Dems are down as opposing the bill:
Kennedy, Byrd, Boxer, Edwards, Graham, Harkin, Hollings, Kerry, Lautenberg, Leahy, and Sarbanes.
Corporate slop anyone?
All you ABB people, with Democratic traitors like that you may as well just hand that second term to Bush now.

Gotta Be Cruel To Be Kind (Rosemary)
From the Daily Kos, "We should have faith that people will see the economy recovered in spite of, not because of, Bush's economic policy."
WHAT?!?!?!???? So then, the economy was stagnant in spite of, not because of, Bush's policies. Right? No, of course not, silly American voter that makes too much sense to be true.
More from Daily Kos, "However, the stagnant economy is genuinely hurting a great many Americans. Is it worth it, so to speak, to wish this hardship on them, even if it's with the hope of ridding America of the man who's so responsible for it? ..While I cannot ignore the perils of those who suffer, I feel that they will only continue to do so, and to possibly suffer greater hardships, if Bush is reelected. "
So, some on the Left WANT the poor and middle classes to SUFFER - actually hoping for it to further their political agenda.
That is sad. And, just a little sick.
So here is a re-cap:
The bad economy IS Bush's Fault. The economic recovery is NOT Bush's Credit. Bush is only to blame for the bad and never to take credit for the good.
Bush is Bad
P.S. They (the Left) don't really care about the poor and downtrodden. Not unless it's convenient and beneficial. And Bush is Bad.

All of these are pathetic fantasies. Whether it leads to a sweeping victory or a pitiful defeat, we don't have any other choice but to go with the Dems.

Anon-idiot Nobody WANTS the economy to suffer. Just Bush doesn't want ordinary people to gain from it. Presidents are rarely to blame for a bad economy - and they rarely deserve credit when the economy rebounds. But when this President's political decisions result in a long-term fiscal mess that end up benefiting a rich few at the expense of the rest of the people then we should be outraged when the President tries to turn the recovery to his political advantage.

Kind of like the "lucky duckies" BS the WSJ was pushing a short while ago: make taxes so onerous on the lower and middle class that they turn against government (and in theory turn to the Repubs).
See, the difference is that to the Right, the suffering of the poor and the middle classes IS their political agenda.

I will agree that the economic recovery IS Bush's credit, but what they are not including when they talk about it is that there is a lot of war money being used to buy a lot of these items. We have thrown a LOT of money toward the war and it is now paying off. With all the jobless people, do you actually think that this recovery is due to the poor masses running out and buying? We(the poor/middle class) didn't get a nice tax break. That was the rich folk.

On the other hand, I think the much trumpeted "recovery" is smoke and mirrors, much like a lot of Bush's "results". The fact that you can't read between the lines says a lot about the ease with which you are decieved by these bunch of carnival barkers and used car salesmen.
Go ask the new homeless and jobless how their enjoying the "economic upturn". Ask them what they did with their big tax cut. Something tells me they won't be so quick to praise Dear Leader and lick his boots like you, you fucking maggot.

Kos has really gone downhill with those guest posters.
Here's Krugman's take...
Stimulating the economy in the short run is supposed to be easy, as long as you don't worry about how much debt you run up in the process.
To put it more bluntly: it would be quite a trick to run the biggest budget deficit in the history of the planet, and still end a presidential term with fewer jobs than when you started.
Or put it this way - show me the jobs!

letters to NYT
Re "Economy Records Speediest Growth Since the Mid-80's" (front page, Oct. 31):
The economy may be on the upswing, but at what cost? Huge deficits for now and in the future, unaffordable health care, uncertain solvency of Medicare and Medicaid, abysmal financing for education and terrible relations abroad.
Many Americans are struggling to pay their bills and praying that they don't get hit with anything chronic or expensive healthwise and that they keep their jobs. Wall Street and the Republicans may be happy, but some of us on Main Street are not.
NANCY GERSON
Bergenfield, N.J., Oct. 31, 2003
In your Oct. 31 front-page article about the economy, the rapidly expanding gross domestic product in the third quarter is trumpeted. I'm puzzled. If in a quarter when the economy expands at a 7.2 percent annualized rate there is still a net loss of 85,000 jobs, how fast does the economy have to grow to actually create jobs?
CRAIG HORTON
Los Angeles, Oct. 31, 2003
Re "Economy Records Speediest Growth Since the Mid-80's" (front page, Oct. 31): The average person receives little stimulus from barely noticeable tax cuts, but there is abundant cash in our pockets from refinancing our mortgages. Equity can also be invested for a better return. But this is a temporary bonanza, obscuring problems of the economy that are bound to reappear.
CONNELL J. MAGUIRE
Riviera Beach, Fla., Oct. 31, 2003
Paul Krugman ("A Big Quarter," column, Oct. 31) points to the true statistic of the last quarter: increased debt. It is obvious that President Bush's tax cuts didn't give people enough money to buy cars, homes and high-priced entertainment systems. It is likely that the little cuts he did provide, when combined with the Fed's irresponsibly low interest rates, inspired more Americans to go into debt.
This shortsighted economics is enough for a myopic White House to do a victory lap, but it should not be seen as a success. Once again, Mr. Bush is postponing the problem till the next generation.

I like Kos's guest speakers.
Anyway, here's my favorite excerpt from the NYT article--
"In contrast to their strategy in the first gulf war, American war planners had been careful not to attack Iraqi infrastructure. This was partly because of their understanding of the rules of war..."
That's about as close as the NYT will ever come to admitting that the United States violated the laws of war in 1991 by attacking civilian infrastructure. Barton Gellman had a story on this in the June 23, 1991 issue of the Washington Post, but it's pretty much gone down the memory hole. The NYT alludes to it here, but if you blink you'll miss it.
As for the present situation, the NYT article is a good summary of why we're in this quagmire, but then, as someone pointed out above, it's only a summary of what the left has been saying since before the war began. One can always count on the NYT to state the blindingly obvious, when it's become politically safe to point out the stupidity of the current Administration.
But accusing the US of committing war crimes, back in 1991 with the destruction of the infrastructure or in 2003, with an aggressive war launched on false pretenses--well, the NYT simply isn't going to go there.

Sharp disagreements are emerging between the US and the UK over the exact nature of the Iraqi resistance, amid warnings that the US is losing the intelligence war against the rebels.
After eight days in which Iraqi fighters have scored a series of major blows to the coalition and its Iraqi allies, intelligence and military officials in Iraq and on both sides of the Atlantic are at odds over whether they are fighting a Saddam-led movement or a series of disparate partisan groups. They are just as divided on finding a way to halt the escalating violence.
The latest violence comes amid increasingly bleak assessments from Washington, where the latest attacks have been compared in the media to Vietnam's 1968 Tet Offensive against US forces and described by Sandy Berger, a former National Security Adviser to President Bill Clinton, as a 'classic guerrilla war'.
The comments follow leaked assessments by both the US pro-consul in Iraq, Ambassador Paul Bremer, and US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld that war against the resistance was going less well than planned, with the latter describing a 'long, hard slog'.

God the denial on this board is really hilarious. You people crack me up. It wasn't too long ago that cutting taxes was going to destroy the economy and bring about the fiscal collapse of the U.S. government. Now that the economy is recovering (so that we grow out of deficits) Krugman's saying "well.. it would be hard for them NOT to stimulate the economy!" But, I never heard a single liberal admitting that they would! Tax cuts for the rich won't do ANYTHING for the economy is the refrain I remember. So to summarize: the economy before the best quarter in 19 years was the fault of Bush's policies, but 7.2% growth has nothing whatsoever to do with them. Somehow everything makes sense if you just agree that Bush is the bad guy. Grow up children.

Homer hasn't read that pesky projection from the Office of Management and Budget, or the one from the Congressional Budget Office that predict no elimination of the deficit for the length of the study.
There is "no growing out of the deficit." The Bush tax cuts ended that possibility. That's his main failure. Not the economy. I've never blaimed him for the post-tech slump, nor did I believe Clinton was responsible for the tech boom. But the fiscal health of the government, terminating structural deficits, seems to fit pretty well into the job of a head of government.

Sorry, Homer. Not even Clinton's economy would balance the budget with today's tax structure.
Moreover, 7.2% (preliminary) growth in Q3 doesn't quite get us to 4% for the year, which won't reduce unemployment. Bush remains the first president since Hoover with net job loss in his term.

People will end up voting on the jobs picture, not GDP. In reality the President can't do a whole lot about jobs. Personal income tax cuts (and estate tax cuts) won't help, and probably won't hurt either. Trade policy would make a much bigger impact on the jobs picture. But the candidates don't differ all that much on trade, especially since Clinton backed NAFTA. So now we get to hear people in middle America say, "Well, I voted for Bush in 2000, now the local factory laid off 1000 people and I don't see any chance to get a new job around here. So I'm voting for the Democrat." Or alternatively, "I voted for Gore because everybody was working around here in 2000. People lost their jobs for a couple years but now people are getting jobs again so I think I'm going to vote for Bush." None of these make any sense. To me, at least.

Then, when you want to make a link, just copy and paste the formula into the comments window, put the cursor between the two quote marks (as shown by Thumb or the link above) and paste in the URL you want to share. Then put the cursor between the greater-than and less-than symbols (again, see HTML intro page above) and type in the text you want to use to indicate the link.

The capability of the American people in self-deception have repeatedly astounded me.
People voted in favor of tax cut after tax cut because they think they will benefit from them, even after the Democrats pointed out that the tax cuts would mainly benefit the top one percent, people were still in favor of them. From one poll 19% of the polled believed them to be in the top one percent.
(src: http://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/1...odaysheadlines)
That's almost one in five. Depressingly many deluded people.
People are against social programs because for some reason they believe selfishness to be some kind of virtue. They refuse to contribute to such programs as social security and medicare because they are afraid the programs would benefit others more than themselves.
Why is there a misconception that Republicans are better at maintaining the economy? Simply because they promote the views that mislead sheep into believing that they are better off than they really are, all the while stealing from their pouches as they stare starry-eyed at their imagined affluence.
The same people hate the Democrats who remind them of the reality, of their increasing debt, their emptying bank account. These people will refuse to acknowledge that they are getting poorer by the day, until they suddenly find themselves bankrupt, then blame the Liberals for wrecking the economy because they are the one's who are "promoting" poverty.
Such is the sad state of affairs, for the chains of ignorance is stronger than that of iron.

After thinking about this I've concluded that a multiparty system does allow the people to be better represented, I mean what kind of a system gives a party all the electoral votes of a state with 50% plus one vote? But barring an entire overhaul of the electoral system, the Greens would be better off by helping the Democratic Party.
I theorize that the Green Party is actually partly responsible for the shifting of the political spectrum towards the right. My theory (feel free to critique it):
1) The purpose of political parties is to be elected to represent its constituents (moreover the direct purpose is to win and/or hold an office)
2) Third parties will take votes away from the two political parties.
3) The Democratic Party is closer ideologically to the Green Party, so the Green Party in a election will pull more Democratic votes away.
4) Because of this, the Democratic Party will be placed at a disadvantage relative to the Republican Party.
5) The Democratic Party must do something to compensate for this disadvantage (otherwise they would lose -- see statement 1)
6) Two possible alternatives:
shift left politically: take votes from Green Party
shift right politically: take "swing" voters
7) Third parties can't win a presidential election in a two-party system (Nader and some people may debate this, but historical evidence has proven this) and therefore not a direct "threat" to the presidency.
Conclusion, against the Republicans:
A "shift" left will gain votes at a rate of 1 vote per shift.
A "shift" right will gain votes at a rate of 2 votes per shift (Republicans lose 1, Democrats gain 1)
Therefore, Democratic Party will shift right on the political spectrum.

i want the US soliders and the multinationals and the iraqi's to suffer now. i want them to suffer right up until their suffering and death runs bush out of office.
because i think that if there was a miraculous turnaround and things became hunky dory overnight in Iraq, and Bush used that stability to run in 2004 and win, the world would be worse off.
it's not something i want to see happen, and i know it's incredibly callous and someone could say "you really DO hate america!" but it's in my opinion the lesser of the two evils.

Helga, I don't take any comfort from hearing people are anxious about the future and economic security. But you're right about journalist jumping on the GDP story to beat up on democrats. On NYT online today Mr. Leonhardt wants to cook up all kinds of "ifs" to suddenly make it look like dems are squirming at the good news. As soon as I heard that 1983 reference I knew this was coming:
"But with the economy having surged this past quarter they are suddenly confronting the possibility of a far less encouraging historical comparison: that the election year economy could be more like the one Ronald Reagan ran on in 1984, when the country was coming out of a long slump.
The rapid change in the outlook — underscored by figures released on Thursday showing the fastest quarterly economic growth since 1984 — is already forcing the Democratic presidential candidates to calibrate their attack on Mr. Bush's economic record in ways they did not have to just a week ago. It has also left them in danger of looking as though they were clinging to economic gloom.
Rather than simply lamenting the economy, the Democrats now say that one good quarter does not erase three sluggish years. The growth has not caused a rebound in the job market, they note, and large budget deficits loom for years."
"But forecasters expect the Labor Department to report the second straight gain in jobs when it releases its monthly employment report on Friday."
Second straight gain, huh. I guess they call them forecasters cause they don't bother to check the actual numbers after they forecast them.

I was watching Lawrence Jacobs (sp?) on the Jesse ventura show. He claimed that Perot was beating Bush and Clinton in the summer of 92.
So, there really are other choices if you choose not to be fooled by the one party system.
Either way those Dems who stand by Bush are stabbing we the voters in the back. Clinton especially.

2003Oct18.html
"In 13 states, the number of voters who supported third-party candidates in statewide races last year was larger than the winning margin in the 2000 presidential election."
The danger of the Green Party to the Democratic nominee is clear. But here is the big news coming out of the 2002 statewide contests: Third parties also spell trouble for Bush. Democrat Jim Doyle broke a string of four straight Republican wins for governor in Wisconsin by a 45-to-41 percent margin over his Republican opponent, Scott McCallum, last year, and two reasons stand out: The Green Party's Jim Young drew only 3 percent of potential Democratic voters and, most impressively, the Libertarian candidate, Ed Thompson (renegade brother of the secretary of health and human services, Tommy Thompson), took a whopping 11 percent, hurting the GOP most.
The Libertarian and Independence parties are significant threats to the Republican Party in 2004. The soaring budget deficit in Washington, ballooning expenditures and an expansion of government under Republican control of the White House and Congress have not only fired up the usual inside-the-Beltway deficit hawks; they have also fueled a grass-roots protest movement. Some of those disaffected Americans won't vote at all. Some will vote Democrat. But many will go outside the box to vote for a third party.
In 15 statewide elections last year, 2 percent or more of voters cast their ballots for the Libertarian Party, which has picked up the banner of small government. Candidates running as independents, who generally promote balanced budgets, cleared the 2 percent mark in seven different states.
The Democratic Party has its own Achilles heel: an apparent collective amnesia. After the devastating impact of Ralph Nader in 2000, one would expect the Democratic leadership to be alert to a similar threat in 2004. But it appears barely to have noticed the continuing draw of Green Party candidates last year. In 2000, Gore eked out wins in Iowa, New Mexico, Oregon, Minnesota and Wisconsin. Results in 2002 statewide elections show that the Greens haven't gone away. In three of those states, their strength either increased or stayed level. In New Mexico their vote increased by an amount significantly larger than Gore's margin of victory. Despite this signal, many Democratic officials are preoccupied with whether Howard Dean's surge in the Democratic field increases the chances of a Republican win. What they ignore is whether Dean is necessary to discourage a Green Party campaign and give the Democrats a chance at winning in 2004. The nomination of a moderate who is intent on appealing to swing voters may well provoke the Green Party to field a candidate -- again.
It is impossible to predict which third-party candidate might jump into the race in the next six months, but the potential effects are clear. A Nader candidacy would hurt the Democratic Party,

Third parties can gain more votes than one of the parties, but it cannot win a presidency. Especially since more often than not it is either left of the Democratic Party or right of the Republican party.
If you want a good example of a successful third party look back to 1912, when Theodore Roosevelt's Bull Moose Party actually beat the Republican Party, but still lost the election.
All a third party does is shift one of the two parties significantly to the middle of the politically spectrum.
This effect may well explain the empowerment of the neo-conservatives, because their percentage and therefore their influence within the Republican Party increases as Democrats gains more moderates.
History has proven that a third party no matter how influential will always be beaten by one of the two parties.

In the end, it will still spell a Republican President.

Except, how can you blame the GREENS for the SCOTUS stealing the election?
The problem is we know for a fact that was vote tampering in FLA. That there was voter disenfranchisement by the Republicans. And the SCOTUS ruled for Bush.
So, where is that the Greens fault?
If Gore would have won his home state, there would never have had been a problem.
So, how can the Greens be blamed for that?
Or for the poor campaign Gore ran?
There was an article about after the election Gore and Clinton had a bit of a dust up, each blaming the other for the loss.
Nothing about Nader or the Greens there.
You are choosing a simplistic explanation to address a complex problem.
2000 was a turning point for Dems. They should have realized they can not maintain a business as usual attitude.
Since 2000 Dems have lost on every major issue put forth. One can not blame the Greens for Arnold, or Texas redistricting.
But, people like Terry M can and should be blamed for these losses. Or their corporate fawning and desire to be Bush shadows.
Look at the Dean campaign and how well they are doing. Why is that? because he address issues that other Dems would not. Corporate Welfare and the War for example.
His campaign isn't supported by Disney, or Pharmaceutical donations, but by real live people.
This is why the Clinton DLC fear him.
Dean may wind up addressing issues that modern Democratic politicians are afraid to face. He could wind up revising the system.
And god forbid anyone do that.

I don't hate her but don't really take her seriously. Gore won the vote but it wasn't because of the campaign, that was really bad. Not as bad as the one Estrich ran (that was one for the records) but it could have been better.
I do hate the DLC. Any group that advises the party to ignore African Americans, the most loyal Democrats in the country, is beneath contempt.

Except, as jacobs pointed out on the ventura program, in 92 Perot was beating Bush and Clinton into the summer.
I think that is a tad closer to our time than Roosevelt, don't you?
And, Jacobs claim was that a VIABLE third party candidate would beat BOTH parties.
So, while Greens may being taking votes from disenfranchised Democrats ( and why would that be happening anyway? Because the party is too far to the right. Arnold could just as well be a Democrat for his positions.), Libertarians are taking votes from the Republicans.
Your post seems to overlook the fact that the only reason democrats would vote Green, is disgust with the current party.
It isn't like there is some magic Green Party mojo that steals a Democrats soul just before stepping into the voting booth.
No, any Democrat voting Green has reasoned it out. They are fed up with the right wing stance and corporatism of the party.
So, really how can anyone blame Greens for individual Democrats choices?

The 1996 presidential campaign may be remembered as the year of the poll. Even before the general election had begun, President Clinton and Bob Dole had spent over a million dollars each on polls; the news media curtailed their coverage of campaigns to give more time to their ever-expanding reporting of their latest poll results.
Clinton and Dole cared about the polls then.
So polls do matter.

If future historians are ever given access to Bush's files, they will probably conclude that the Iraq war was fought for no discernable reason.
There were various agendas and factors that the historians will identify, but in the end it just acquired a life of its own and "just happened".

That is just plain silly. Politicians know polls reflect the attitude of the voters. Why do you think they ALL spend so much money on them?
The Perot poll shows he had a chance to win as ventura did.
But Ross went bugfuck.
Your position could carry more weight if politicians never followed polls. Polls even get cited here to support a position.

Uh, I guess I really don't understand what the hell you're trying to prove with a series of polls taken in the summer. The fact that politicians follow the polls proves that politicians follow the polls. So do I. But given that many Americans who don't actually vote, how inaccurate polling has become, and that much can change in the political climate in a few months, let alone a year, I'm not impressed with your argument.
Polls are not a determining factor in actually winning an election (which is, of course, the ultimate goal). Just look at the initial buzz Clark got when he entered the race. Does that mean he's going to win the Democratic nom? Unclear. What will tell us for sure? When voters actually cast their ballots.
What's really going to prove whether a third party candidate can win is that a third party candidate wins. Ventura proved that at the state level it is possible, although his party didn't have a good enough organization to follow through. And that's key: a flash in the pan is nothing new in politics, and we need a sustainable third party movement.
As I suggest on my blog, if we want to change the current system we can't act like we can hit homers off big league pitchers. We need a farm system, and need to recognize that most runs are scored by people getting base hits.
