Here's a quick summary for those who missed the speech -- or avoided
it. In keeping with the spirit of Christmas, this recap can be sung to
the tune of "We Three Kings".
It is clear Republicans are
Conning us about the war.
Bush keeps reading scripts misleading,
Who does he think we are?
Oh War of Plunder, War of Blight,
Ruining everything in sight.
Fear and greed -- with both he's leading.
How dare he on Sunday night?

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Supreme Court today refused to hear an appeal
filed on behalf of Tom DeLay, the disgraced former Congressman who has
been at the center of a recent constitutional dispute surrounding the
President's detainee policies in the War on Criminality.
Mr. DeLay, designated an "enemy combatant" in the War on Criminality,
has been in solitary confinement at an undisclosed location since
February, when a federal appeals court stripped him of his rights as a
U.S. citizen. After today's refusal by the Supreme Court to hear an
appeal, the February ruling will now stand. Mr. DeLay's status remains
unknown.
"We're obviously disappointed," said one of the attorneys who filed
the appeal on Mr. DeLay's behalf. "We don't know where Tom is, if he's
being treated humanely, whether he has access to medical
care--anything. And now, I guess, we never will know."

Hello, theocracy with a fundamentalist US Supreme
Court who will ensure church and state are joined
at the hip like clergy and altar boys.

"As democracy is perfected, the office of president
represents, more and more closely, the inner soul
of the people. On some great and glorious day the
plain folks of the land will reach their heart's
desire at last and the White House will be adorned
by a downright moron." --- H.L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
