newspaper cover Wednesday Nov 7: Dem's get a majority in the House of Representatives

Bush pays the price for Iraq.

It's like I hoped. A president should work together with the people, not only with whom elected him. After the last Presidential election it was clear that America was no longer united on all fronts. Every President, whoever that is, even the Dutch Minister President, should find the consensus.
The dynasty Bush had the chance to rule the US as an one party system. That is the worst thing of the last 6 years. There were no impulses from the inside for the system to change.

Rumsfeld (where is he pointing at? Finger pointing seems to be a bad habit.) for example just built up his empire. As long as the US is in Iraq in the way he likes to see it. His associates are doing business as usual.
A war? No, we're making profit, this is big business. Thanks to the Republic.

Of course nothing will change immediately but there is more pressure to change and the new policies can be blocked. The work hasn't been done.

The latest news I heard is that Rumsfeld will resign because of the criticism on his Iraq policy. Great news, finally Herr Rumsfeld will join Herr Flick.
