When I began this blog in 2001, I was appalled by President Bush's headlong rush to an illegal war (we were not in fact under attack). As time wore on and Bush began his assault on the Constitution and any people bold enough to criticize, I believed that "the republic is endangered more by actions of our own government than by those of any terrorist." With the election of a high-minded, compassionate, intelligent man like Barack Obama, my fears have ceased.

One of the many lies
The DailyMisleader, which documents and reports Bush's many inconsistencies, prevarications, distortions, aberrations and outright lies, reported yesterday on the Bush remarks on our complex tax code:
Last night, accepting the Republican nomination, President Bush said a
"drag on our economy is the current tax code, which is a complicated
mess, filled with special interest loopholes."[1] Bush noted that the
American people were saddled with "6 billion hours of paperwork and
headache every year," and said that he was the candidate to create "a
simpler, fairer" system.[2] But during the last four years, Bush has pushed
through changes to the tax code far more complicated and burdensome for
taxpayers. ...more plus the footnotes
