According to the Washington Post, today the Bush administration responded to allegations that a Cheney-lead Halliburton illegally did business in Iran, despite sanctions, by saying, "This was the daily baseless political attack by the Democrats… Today the hatchet man was Frank Lautenberg. . . . This is an attempt by the Kerry campaign to avoid a discussion of the issues."
If this is not an “issue,” then what is!? Should the democrats concentrate on what they have been for the past two years—sucking a lot of dick—each others and especially our fearless, Patriot Act loving leader so that they can be more American then the next guy? Sucking dick does seem to be an “issue” in the Republican’s guidebook. Monica was so much more important to criticize Bubba on then fucking NAFTA. A provision of this free trade agreement allows corporations to sue entire governments for passing laws that “infringe” on their investments (most of which are health environment and labor protection laws that are meant for the public good).
Of course the Republicans love free trade now too. They love it so much they gave Dubbya the power to enter into trade agreements without going through legislature. They gave up a constitutional power so that Dubbya can enter into trade agreements and sign away labor rights and the environment quicker and with less public scrutiny!
I'm twitching with Fear.
