In the News… Part Deux.

Posted at 4:04 pm on Monday, July 9, 2007, in In the News, and tagged , , , .

Such a busy news day, I’ve got to do it twice. I’ve gotta.

- Bush has cited executive privilege in refusing two high-level aides to testify before Congress in the probe of the U.S. attorney firings. However, wouldn’t it be simpler for Bush to allow his aides to plead guilty, and then for Bush to quickly commute/pardon them? Might as well start at the finish line.

- Apple plans on releasing a smaller, cheaper version of the iPhone, possibly later this year.

- Karl Rove on the disaster that is the Iraq war… “Look, I make no apologies.Accountability.

- On the topic of the Iraq war, how much of the 12 billion dollars spent monthly, goes directly to the friends of Cheney and Bush? My guess is a lot. How is Halliburton’s stock doing, anyway? Better than the war? Will anyone report this?

- And not only does Fred Thompson hope that voters have a short memory, but Thompson has one as well, an even shorter one.

    Rove can’t begin to apologize for the mess that is the Iraq war, since it will undoubtedly have repercussions far into the future. How can you possibly apologize–and mean it–for screwing things up so completely?

    Thompson’s desperate gambit to deny, deny, deny anything that will make him look less appealing as a candidate is an old one, but no more effective than it has been in the past. Maybe he hopes we’ll be dazzled by his “brilliant” (?) acting skills–such as they are.
