McClellan press conference today

Helen Thomas puts McClellan on the spot.


and now Seymour Hirsch writing in the New Yorker. Are we planning to attack Iran? Evidently, we are. Will it be a disaster that makes Iraq look like a kids' snowball fight? Of course it will. Is this administration insane? What do you think?

I was going to leave it that and then I found this from Susan G. writing in KOS today.

The Administration is expert at pitting neighbor against neighbor, the young against the elderly, the cities against the farms, one religion against another, you get the idea and Susan G. says it well.

Ben Franklin said it even better:

"We must hang together, gentlemen...else, we shall most assuredly hang separately."


Weather note: Merced Country now officially state disaster area. It took long enough.
