Senator Inhofe's report, the last word in the global warming debate ?
( Actually, they've won their bogus 'talking point'. The European scientists responsible for the 'watered-down' report - the perceived truth being too extreme - mentioned no debate but a scientific concensus.
Doug has his own take on 'Code Pink'. Unusually - for me - I think his 'take' on the protest as counterproductive likely correct. No way the people of the U.S. are going to see past their love affair with all things military and appreciate the underlying point. )
"Staying in Iraq will eventually lead to victory the same way that increased spending, increased borrowing and lowering taxes will eventually lead to prosperity."
( Yep. Put baldly like that he certainly does understand that 'plan' ain't goin' to work, nohow. )
