King George 43 will be MOST DANGEROUS in his last 1,000 days!

Watergate veteran John Dean has penned a frightening essay explaining why the ever-more-loathed Smirker-in-Chief will be in ideological/reality-denying overdrive during his last 1,000 days in power, and should be counted on to take big, stupid risks that will damage the American prospect. That means bad things for you, me and our kids...


If there is no "October Surprise," I would be shocked. And if it is not a high-risk undertaking, it would be a first. Without such a gambit, and the public always falls for them, Bush is going to lose control of Congress. Should that happen, his presidency will have effectively ended, and he will spend the last two years of it defending all the mistakes he has made during the first six, and covering up the errors of his ways.

But that is a best case scenario! According to Dean, the only true "October Surprise" in the run up to the 2006 elections would be no October Surprise.

Possibilities include a Cheney resignation (to be replaced by Condi, Rudi or McCain - whoever the necons crown as their next king or queen), a unilateral attack upon Iran ...  or ... catching Usama. (That John Dean thinks this last feat can be done on schedule for political effect speaks a million volumes - maybe we have UBL already! - yet I seem to remember this same speculation before Nov. 2004).


Anyhow, the whole point is that we are being screwed royally and should expect more, much more! Personally, I'm scared, very scared. After all, JFK only had about 1,000 days -- all told -- and he took us through the Bay of Pigs and the Cuban Missile Crisis. And, he was a good guy ...
