The WaPo says Bush won't be irrelevant until NEXT year

oh, puh-l-e-e-e-eze...
President Bush offered the usual assurances last night about the healthy state of the union, but the state of his presidency has never been worse. He faces a Democratic majority in both chambers of Congress and a public increasingly unhappy about the war in Iraq and disenchanted with his leadership. By the time he delivers next year's State of the Union address, the primaries will be underway, and Mr. Bush's relevance will be fading. If he is to have a final chance to shape policy, this is it.

bush has been not only relevant in the most negative sense, but also immeasurably toxic to the state of the nation since his family's mafia arranged for scotus to confirm the 2000 election as stolen on 12 december 2000... as long as his criminal cabal remains ensconced in the white house, the poison will continue to drip into the country's veins, and no one in the u.s. or throughout the world should sleep easy... yet, instead of raising the hue and cry to remove them, some continue to fly the false flag of moderation and reason, two approaches that the bush administration itself has rendered both immoderate and irrational...
