Hey Green Irish Boy

Did you see the OpEd in the New York Times about wild horses?

http://www.nytimes.com/2005/01/04/opinion/04blunt.html?oref=login&pagewanted=print&position=

It vindicates some of what you were saying, but mostly sides with those who took the opposing view.

Key paragraph:
"The overpopulation of wild horses is a serious problem in the West, with herds growing exponentially until they eat themselves out of luck. The land can't support an infinite number of wild horses - which, by the way, are inbred feral descendants of imported domestic horses, hardly more native to the prairie than the cattle their ancestors were trained to herd."

Please go read the rest of it.

Go After Bush's Political Capital

from liberaloasis.com

We are not seeing the Beltway Dems take LiberalOasis' suggestion from last week to attempt to force the intel reform bill onto the House floor with a discharge petition.

This is a shame. Dems need to assert their relevance, not just on this issue, but to set the tone for the next four years.

However, according to CNN's Inside Politics, Dems are looking to keep the pressure on to get the bill passed. That's a possible positive.

But if their moves are strictly bipartisan in nature (as CNN's reporting suggested), they'll be missing a big opportunity.

Because they can't make sharp attacks against Bush if they are coordinating with moderate GOPers.
