I've seen & heard of a few of these right-wing media screwballs attacking Cindy Sheehan, and it hasn't surprised me much. What are you going to expect them to say?

"Oh, I was totally wrong. Nevermind."

Yeah. Not happening Sparky. These idiots would be giving up the jobs that made them rich. I'm probably wrong, but I've always had this feeling that they really didn't believe half the crap they shovelled, but it was a job to them...which may be more reprehensible, but I digress...

This article does a pretty good job of summing up the looneys. I think my old squeeze, Ann Coulter, and company are really losing their minds. Whatever.

I've unfortunately started to tune into some Air America shows again...only for a few minutes at a time...it's all I can handle. But creepy Randi Rhodes did have a good point - the only way the War Criminal is going to be held accountable is with Dem victories in the 2006 congressional races...even then...that would just give the Dems the ability to do something. It doesn't mean they will.

I'm not really interested in any kind of retribution against the nutty-right. I want to see real, sytematic change. Screw this pendulum thing that keeps going right to left and back. Again, it won't happen, but instant runoff voting will fix a lot of what ails this country. So would some proportional representation. But that's just me.

This weekend I had a sort-of conversation with this guy about local politics who is this cantankerous old righty. His solution to everything that ails this town was more police on the street and that everyone in the city is a welfare-swindler. You can't change those people's minds. You have to just do what you're going to do and let them kick and scream and when it works they'll stop screaming but find something else to complain about.
