U.S. to Respond to Inquiries Over European Detentions / More from BuzzFlash

Bush is supposed to "reveal" a plan for "victory in Iraq" today. Excuse us, but isn't that something you are supposed to do before you start a war, not two years after you have declared "mission accomplished"? Well, no one has accused "Baby Doc" Bush of being the sharpest tool in the shed.

And he and Cheney are Chickenhawks without any combat experience to boot.

When did the Republican Party become the party of such losers?

Deborah Davis is an average American with a son serving in Iraq who stood up to Big Brother Bushevism Government. For that reason, she merits this week's BuzzFlash "Wings of Justice Award."

And to those Democratic "leaders" who continue to insist that the safer, more electable course is to remain openly or silently complicit in the war, we say, paraphrasing the moral philosopher Hillel: If not now, when? If not you, who? 11/30

It's Showtime! The Busheviks Meet the Horror of Their Folly!
If you can watch Showtime cable this Friday, December 2, at 10 PM EST (check your local directory), we encourage you to take a look at the hour-long feature, "Homecoming," by veteran Hollywood director Joe Dante.

BuzzFlash received an advance screening copy of Dante's work for the "Masters of Horror" series http://www.mastersofhorror.net/. Written with Sam Hamm, Dante uses the most unlikely vehicle of a campy horror script to film one of the most devastating commentaries on the Bush/Cheney lies that led us into the Iraq War.
