THE CHOSEN -- Part II Oh, stop it. Eire 8 posted a long post in the summer of 2004 -- back when Failed Candidate Kerry was wriggling around with his vote to start the Iraq war. The question Eire 8 wanted answered -- which remains unasked and unanswered -- and the question that should be asked/answered now is this: Why did they [Congress] cede their constitutional authority to such a man [President Bush] -- a man they speak of as if they never regarded him as fit for the role of commander-in-chief? And the follow-up: Why "PRESIDENTIAL DETERMINATION" seemed like such a great idea in 2002 and is such a dreadful idea now? To these questions should be added: When will the resignations start? Like De Niro in Casino said to the local in charge of the slot machines after a particular machine awarded three consecutive jackpots, "Either you were in on it or you were too dumb to see it coming -- either way, you're out." Note: Our memory of the scene plays much better than it does in the movie. Read Eire 8's entire post for the details -- it's Sunday, afterall. And let's start to hear a cry for the resignations of these admitted incompetents.
