The AP Strikes Again

I read this excerpt from the following AP story (near the end on page 3) about the Democratic Party trying to hold Bush accountable for the Iraq War in Congress, and I almost lost my mind.

Apart from legislation, Democrats have embarked on an effort to undermine public support for the war by holding numerous hearings.
I have news for David Espo; there isn't a whole hell of a lot of public support for the Iraq war here or elsewhere to be "undermined."

If Espo himself wrote that line, he should be fired. If not, the editor responsible for it should be booted immediately instead.

'm basically disgusted... strike that... i'm much more than basically disgusted... i'm beginning to wonder if there's anyone in my country that has the guts to stand up and be counted...

i had so hoped that handing congress over to the dems would make a difference... silly me... the r's continue to hold sway in congress while bush and his buds continue to eviscerate the constitution, while the iraq troop escalation moves full speed ahead, and while plans for invading iran are finalized... then we get to see the likes of hillary clinton channel joe lieberman, obama preen and posture and offer little else, edwards go weak in the knees, and a host of other cojones-challenged dems continue to mewl and piss on themselves rather than doing what needs to be done to get the country back on track...

there is only one thing that needs doing right now in the u.s., and that is figuring out the best way to get bushco the hell out of the white house... absolutely nothing else matters... until he and his gang are stopped, none of us are safe and the future of our country is at terrible risk... posting about anything else, imho, is a waste of time, and a demonstration of almost criminal negligence...
