Summer Going Well

Well, how is everyone's summer going? My summer is going very well. My internship with the Washington State Democrats is going very well; I'm learning quite a lot. The Dems will be moving to a new office space next week, so I will be setting up a practice network this week to try to anticipate problems for when we set up the new network. I must confess to being very nervous about setting up this new network. I don't want to be responsible for the Dems losing any races because I fucked up the network! I doubt it would be that bad, like I said, I'm just nervous. Every one I work with is very cool and I'm really enjoying the learning experience.

Eurosport Summer

What with The French Open, Wimbledon, the World Cup, and the Tour de France, my DVR is really getting a workout!

The World Cup was so much fun this year! Yes, yes, The US team sucked, but it was still fun to watch. I would have liked to see the championship match be between Germany and France, with France winning, but oh well.

And how about Floyd Landis in the Tour? I don't know if he really has a chance at winning this year, but it would be cool to see an American other than Lance Armstrong win. That would drive the French crazy because they see an opportunity to win one for the home team this year what with Lance not racing. It seems to me that the field is pretty wide open with Lance gone, any one could win it this year.

Well I suppose that's all I've got for now.

Bush Lied and People Died

I just can't stand it anymore. Read the Downing Street Memo , and you'll see that President Bush lied to the American people when he told us in his State of the Union address that the U.S. wasn't yet committed to the path of war. He lied again when he said that Saddam Hussein had tried to purchase uranium in Niger, Africa. Joseph Wilson , who is a diplomat that was sent to Niger in order to check these allegations, said that Bush was lying. Wilson was then smeared in the media by the Bush administration, and his wife Valerie Plame, an active CIA operative (working on finding WMD in the world), was "outed" by Karl Rove and Robert Novak. Bush lied when he told us that Al Queda and Saddam Hussein had "high level" talks. Every government committee that studied 9/11 said there was no credible evidence to support that. But its not just Georgie. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld lied when he went on "This Week with George Stephanopolis" and said h

How Boring

OK, so I decided that I wasn't going to write anything political, that I was just gonna write about personal stuff. And I haven't written a thing in two weeks. How boring is my life? But I've got some stuff coming.....

Donald Rumsfeld on CNN

8:15AM Pacific Time: Sittin here watchin Wolf interview Rummy on Late Edition, and Rummy is talking about why it's not a good idea to pull out of Iraq right now. He's talking about, and I paraphrase, "If we establish a timeline for pull-out, then we're telling the insurgents that they only have to wait until we're gone, and if we do that, they will wait, and then unleash a blood bath when we're gone." Goddamit, I hate it when I have to agree with one of these trolls. But, sadly, no matter how much we hate the Bush administration, truth, from any source is still truth. And the truth is, the insurgents will wait, and they will unleash a blood-bath. What Rummy doesn't say is, all that will be our fault. I have to say it, though it pains me to do so, I do think it's irresponsible to call for an immediate troop withdrawal from Iraq, because of what I said above. I believe that what the democrats need to keep harping on is the fact that pre-war intell
