Once again, a litany of crimes, lies and outrages is published and once again we're waiting for there to be consequences

today's nyt spells out what we all know so very well...
We can't think of a president who has gone to the American people more often than George W. Bush has to ask them to forget about things like democracy, judicial process and the balance of powers — and just trust him. We also can't think of a president who has deserved that trust less.

  • DOMESTIC SPYING
[...]
  • THE PRISON CAMPS
[...]
  • THE WAR IN IRAQ

Like many other administrations before it, this one sometimes dissembles clumsily to avoid embarrassment. (We now know, for example, that the White House did not tell the truth about when it learned the levees in New Orleans had failed.) Spin-as-usual is one thing. Striking at the civil liberties, due process and balance of powers that are the heart of American democracy is another.

yeah... ok... so...? we keep reading and reading and learning and learning about bushco crimes, lies and outrages... and then we keep reading and reading and learning and learning about bushco crimes, lies and outrages... and then, and then, and then... SO WHEN THE FUCK IS SOMETHING GONNA BE DONE TO STOP THEM...?
