Stark Realities

This July 4th it seems that the way people are responding to the Bush presidency is to refer back to the Declaration of Independence. And, if you read it, thinking instead of our "king" George, instead of the old King George, it is actually rather striking. First Draft has done the work for us - by linking to news stories that connect to the things he's done. Keith Olbermann has a wonderful special commentary about the commutation of the sentence of Scooter Libby. I hate to think about what's next. Especially since it seems that the new Democratic congress doesn't seem to really be flexing its muscle.
