Whaddya mean, "I Can't?"

Don't vote, don't bitch

Well now. Despite the company attorneys' admonitions not to do so, Mr. Bush sold his Harken stock a week after the warning was received. The corporate fraud issue won't go away, it seems. Mr. Pitt, meanwhile, has directed the SEC Inspector General to investigate his (Pitt's) actions with regard to the Biggs/Webster nomination. I have a hard time imagining that the IG is going to find wrongdoing on the part of his boss.

"The White House has positioned Bush to claim victory no matter what happens Tuesday". "If Republicans gain seats in the House or control of the Senate, the White House is prepared to call it an endorsement of Bush. If they lose seats in the House or fail to recover the Senate, Bush aides will say the election was resolved on local issues." You know, I could tolerate that if it were said with a wink, but I suspect that those aides will try to sell it as gospel truth either way.

I'll drink to that, in spades.
