Smoke and mirrors but at least he didn't re-write the tax withholding tables (not the tax itself) and say the economy's fixed like his Pop did. I kind of lost respect at that point in Sr's term.

"Bush to suspend strategic oil deliveries"

AP: Today the esteemed Senator from Nevada Harry "the body" Reid declared that Bush not directing oil to the strategic reserves is a direct threat to our nation if the US went to war. Reminded that the US was already at war, Senator reid declared that the issue is not whether the US is at war or not, but how the poor man will suffer from this treasonous act by an irresponsible President. When reminded that everyone uses gasoline and not just the rich, Senator Reid declared that this was a setup by Halliburton to further line the pockets of Vice President Cheney.

After the presser, Senator Reid was seen leaving with Helen Thomas and Pinch Sulzberger.
