Coffee tastes like shit. I keep learning and unlearning this. Sure there are a couple of good cups out there now and again, but the majority of coffee tastes like shit. It's not an acquired taste. It's just something we put up with to get the buzz.
Bush's border plan went from insane to just plain stupid. So now we are sending 6,000 typists and road workers to the border? Huh? Here is a money saving alternative. Hire decent local contractors to build the roads. And pay a $50K signing bonus to new border agents. Hell, gun toting wannabees would jump at that. Certainly as a healthy alternative to expressing their gun-nuttery in Iraq.
The ID card thing that Bush proposed will never happen. One it will infringe on his business buddies. And second the Republican party is only good at two things, shrinking government programs or inflating existing government programs. They don't know how to implement new programs.
At the end of the day I can't think of a single person who liked what Bush had to say last night. He particularly smacked down the militant wing of his own base by getting on them about amnesty and their politics of hate, which was of course ironic, since the politics of hate come directly from Karl Rove's office down the hall. Just walk down the hall George... Knock. Knock. "Hey Karl, you got a second? You know the smear the queer and fear monger about undocumented worker stuff that we do all the time? I want you to stop that since it's getting in the way of running the country and all."
