Failure is their only option.


This is the stairway on the ranch that I climb every morning to go to work.
It's a tough commute :)
The ranch was built in 1958 by a circus family and there is stonework all over the property, some mortered and some just stacked. All of the stones came from here, and there's a lot more where they came from.

Cheney says........
No one saw it coming.

WASHINGTON – Vice President Dick Cheney says that his boss, President George W. Bush, has no need to apologize to the American people for not doing more to head off the financial calamity, saying no one saw the crisis coming.

During an interview Thursday with The Associated Press in his West Wing office, Cheney defended the administration's performance on an economy that is growing weaker daily and which recently collapsed in spectacular fashion. Cheney said that "nobody anywhere was smart enough to figure it out."

He said Bush doesn't need to apologize because he has taken "bold, aggressive action."

No one saw it coming? Real estate values skyrocketing well beyond reasonable, consistently rising debt, ever widening income gap between rich and poor, increasing trade deficits, continual drops in manufacturing capacity, offshore banks, war, broken medical system, broken infrastructure, global warming...am I missing anything. They can't see the forest for the trees.

They didn't see 9/11 coming either, or global warming, or failed military adventures.

Can anyone seriously trust a republican to represent them ever again?

"You mean they have black people in Brazil?"......George Bush

The ranch appears to be a real treasure.
Particularly the stone-work, which will no doubt, if properly maintained, last for centuries to come.
Here in "old Europe", homes were always built using local stone, then along came, "timber-frame construction", and "reinforced concrete", neither of which endure as long, or with any particular grace.

Cheney claims that "no-one saw it coming",(9/11), yet after a little objective research, a great store of evidence points to the fact that not only did Cheney know beforehand, he was also part of the planning.
Factor in the involvement of Israel, and there it is, a monstrous great lie.

With the growing weight of evidence stacking up against the neo-cons and their Israeli "masters", little wonder that Israel is getting beligerent.
