You heard it here first.

I got a phone call at work. It was an automated poll with 5 yes or no questions.
1) whether or not I thought the USA should withdraw from Iraq.
2) whether or not I thought the US economy was doing well.
3) whether or not I believe there is a housing bubble in the USA.
4) whether or not I believe George W. Bush is handling of his job well lately.
5) whether or not Jeb Bush is a viable presidential candidate in 2008.
Measured by monetary wealth, Bill Gates is the richest individual on the planet with $50 Billion.
The US Government has spent over 7 times that amount, $369 Billion, so far in Afghanistan and Iraq. They want another $91 Billion to continue this. Gas prices haven't really come down and Iraqis are into extremely violent civil disobedience when the democratic vote doesn't go their way.
Building hydrogen infrastructure in America was seen as impractical because it would cost $100 Billlion dollars. Dick Cheney owns shares in Halliburton, Conda-sleeza Rice used to have an Oil tanker named after her. No Hydrogen Energy stock owners here.
Dick Cheney shot a guy "by accident". Then that guy apologized to Dick on TV?????
When the Vice President of the most powerful nation on Earth shoots somebody, it was no accident, it was a distraction. What didn't Dick want us to notice that week?
My prediction: Jeb Bush was secretly smuggling US nuclear missles into IRAN so we'll have an excuse to invade. This time the WMDs will be found by the inspectors, G.W. will invade Iran and Jeb will get elected in 2008 because nobody could connect the dots!!!
