"Neither snow nor rain not heat nor gloom of night stays" George Bush from giving us the finger

out-of-control president... dictator... monarch... despot... strongman... somehow none of these captures the nightmarish horror that the bush presidency has become... he's being attacked from all sides, but that won't stop him from running the country right into the ground... he and his criminal posse must be removed because this kind of shit just is not going to stop until that happens...

President Bush intends to bypass the Senate in order to name a "conservative academic" to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA), Wednesday's Wall Street Journal reports.

"Bypassing a reluctant Senate, President Bush will use a recess appointment to name a conservative academic to the White House's top regulatory post," Henry Pulizzi writes for WSJ. "The move, expected to be announced today, will fill a position that has been vacant for more than a year, and could help the White House use the regulatory process to shape policy."

According to the paper, "Susan Dudley, the former head of regulatory studies at George Mason University's Mercatus Center, has generated opposition from environmentalists and liberal interest groups, who say she would carry out a pro-business agenda at the expense of public health and safety."

as i've said before, it's not as if we weren't warned, all the way back in october, even BEFORE the elections...

In fact, when it comes to deploying its Executive power, which is dear to Bush's understanding of the presidency, the President's team has been planning for what one strategist describes as "a cataclysmic fight to the death" over the balance between Congress and the White House if confronted with congressional subpoenas it deems inappropriate. The strategist says the Bush team is "going to assert that power, and they're going to fight it all the way to the Supreme Court on every issue, every time, no compromise, no discussion, no negotiation."

and, if that didn't make it clear, tony snow certainly did when he said this...

"He told all of us, 'Put on your track shoes. We're going to run to the finish,'" Snow said. "He's going to be aggressive on a lot of fronts. He's been calling all his Cabinet secretaries and telling them, 'You tell me administratively everything you can do between now and the end of the presidency. I want to see your to-do list and how you expect to do it.' We're going to try to be as ambitious and bold as we can possibly be."

the only thing i can see at this point is to bring an END to bush's presidency... of course, that's about all i have been able to see for several years now, but it's never been more critical than it is now...
