Dear Kos,

I think you need to find a new line of work.

Okay, infrequent poster here...but they are saying $200,000/job in this "job creation" plan.

I have a better idea. Deal with Student Debt...

$5 billion @ $200K/Job = 250,000 low paying construction jobs

Yes, this gets 250,000 people potentially off unemployment but it also means they don't have a lot of left over income.

My suggestion is to offer student debt cancellation/credit.

The President had his colonoscopy today. It was performed at Camp David, rather than a medical facility. Hmmm, that must have taken some planning. So clearly this was a date they had control over. Any medical procedure that involves anesthesia--managed or not--has some degree of risk. I know I'd like to be around if my spouse was "going under" even for a routine procedure.

So where was Laura during all this?

He (W) spoke to first lady Laura Bush -- who is in Midland, Texas, celebrating her mother's birthday -- before and after the procedure, Stanzel said.

Why wasn't Laura there? Or, why didn't they schedule this procedure so that W could be with Laura to celebrate his mother-in-law's birthday?

I think this all begs some investigation or, better yet, speculation.

Speculate away...

Uh oh...

Bush to Have Colonoscopy
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush will undergo a routine colonoscopy Saturday, his spokesman said, revealing that Bush will hand over presidential powers to Vice President Dick Cheney while he is under under anesthesia.

White House press secretary Tony Snow told reporters that Bush would have the procedure at his Camp David, Md., mountaintop retreat.

Yeah, sure this is a "routine" thing. But, this is just too scary at this point in time. Complications? Cheney refuses to return presidental powers? All doubtful, I'm sure. But scary none the less.

But, can we benefit from this? Who takes over as VP and thus presides over the Senate while Cheney is Temporary President? Surely someone else should have to fill this role while the Fourth Branch takes over the Executive Branch.

So who takes this roll? Can we take advantage of this in terms of passing something that would require a tie breaker vote?

Lieberman: Iran has declared war on the US

"Although no one desires a conflict with Iran, the fact is that the Iranian government by its actions has declared war on us," Lieberman wrote, while urging the United States to keep "open the possibility of using military force against the terrorist infrastructure inside Iran."

"These revelations should be a wake-up call to the United States about the threat posed by the Islamic Republic of Iran," Lieberman continued, "as well as a reminder why Iraq is, in fact, the central front of the global war on terror."

You have got to be kidding!!! IS he serious?

Monica Goodling is resigning...

Monica Goodling, the counsel and White House liaison to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, says in a letter that she will resign, effective Saturday. Goodling has been on a leave of absence. Her lawyers have told Congress she would invoke the Fifth Amendment protections against self-incrimination if called to testify about the firings of eight U.S. attorneys.

Yup...and four other DOJ employees in Minneapolis demoted themselves.

Rats. Ships. Fleeing. Sinking.

Could this be the end?
