Can anyone confirm if he gave that address tonite or canceled? I certainly would like to know.

1. Would also like confirmation of a Greg Palast comment that

Bush played golf today. Someone said on another thread that SKYE news showed the clubs.

3. I saw that as well.

If it's true, I sure would think people would like to see video of that.

"Now watch this drive!"

2. King George was raised

by a woman that didn't bother to have a funeral for her dead daughter.

He was taught very early in life that death is something not to be felt.

He's evil and dangerous. I know I'm preaching to the choir, but this can't be said enough.

4. You're all too right, Holly

He's a sociopathic cocksucker who plainly doesn't deserve to live.

Sorry, that's my feeling. If he was drawn and quartered by an enraged mob tonight, I wouldn;t lose a wink of sleep over it.

Welcome to DU, btw.
