Rumsfeld is stepping Down!!??!!

[Teresa]

don't give up!!!

I gave up several years ago, but I do have hope for the near future... this resignation was a step in the right direction, IMO.

I thought President Bush was very gracious in defeat. I have not been a fan of his but today he was all class. I am very optimistic that in the next two years some important things can be accomplished in immigration, Iraq policy, and minimum wage. Tax issues, healthcare and reforming and making solvent social security and medicare unfortunately, will have to wait until after the 2008 elections.

What went down yesterday and today was pretty major! I have been too busy getting ready for end-of-semester projects and shopping (a girl's gotta do what a girl's supposed to do) to totally get a grip on what has happened. I need to catch up on my news and reading to make any intelligent comments. But I'm shocked.:shock:

Now if Dubya, Dicky and Condi will just follow suit, we'll be getting somewhere.

Oh, goofer, I hope you're right. There's so much our country needs to accomplish. It makes me sad to see what a muddle we're in. I hope we get on the good path again.

I like your 'tude. we all should be so hopeful. I'll try to be more hopeful. But, at this point, it's kinda hard.

I have a question, it is the same one I heard on the radio yesterday. So many people voice their opinion about how the "powers that be" are doing everything wrong. So if you could change these things what would you do??? I am not trying to start a "war" here, just some conversation to see how everyone would like to see things played out. ~~~ I may not get one response....that is ok also...

1. immigration
2. Iraq
3. minimum wage
4. Tax issues
5. healthcare
6. social security

Five term Kentucky Congresswoman Anne Northup (R), in an act of pre-election desperation after seeing her poll numbers go down the toilet, had said that Rumsfeld should resign. Now, neither one of them have their old job. What a shame.:roll: I am very proud of Louisvillians today for changing things up a bit.

Thank you My voted actually counted this year. It was a dirty campaign season here, mud was flying everywhere. I'm glad it's over.

On this morning's news, Bush was moaning about not having more changes earlier (speaking on the Rumsfeld/war issue).
