Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

Five years!  Time flies, doesn’t it?

That means we have only 95 years left in Iraq, by John McCain’s figuring.

But let’s be fair.  The White House SAYS the big sign on the big ship was some kind of abbreviation for something else.

UPDATE: Here’s a “Mission Accomplished” ad from those fine folks at MoveOn.org:

    Does the White House actually expect us to believe that? That version of the banner would’ve covered the whole ship!

    Hey, Will, the White House thinks some people will believe anything. And the White House is right about that.

    Sad but true, Pat. Sad but true.
