Working Assets and Why I love them!

There are many reasons to support Working Assets. The personal is political of course is one. Also how many corporations that provide a necessary service have Molly Ivins prominently displayed on their home page? Not many!

So when you get Will Durst as an added attraction you need to say, “I love you!”

Here is Durst’s latest post at Working Assets:

Iraqi good stuff

Will Durst - WorkingForChange.com

03.23.06 - On the third anniversary of his misadventure into Iraq, President George Bush strove to sell his invade-and-occupy policy by holding a press conference and announcing that getting US troops out of Iraq is not his problem. Instead, it's going to be the problem of future US presidents and Iraqi governments. In other words, there's no light at the end of this tunnel, just a secular guerilla holding a flashlight, and we're backing out as fast as our little cowboy boots can carry us.

Civil war: the gift that keeps on giving.

To say Bush was a bit testy is like saying gravel is not as nutritious as it looks. He even snapped at Helen Thomas. For crum's sake, who snaps at Helen Thomas? It's like biting the head off a smurf. He also proceeded to duck questions asked of him and to answer unasked questions his handlers had prepared him for and to overall look like a guy who was trying to fake his way through not having done his homework... for the last thirteen semesters.

Bush did his best to reassure America that it's not as bad as it looks over there. Which is good, cuz to be honest, it looks pretty freaking bad over there. He was adamant that progress is being made, but when asked to explain where and how, he ran into a couple of minor roadblocks. Like examples of exactly where and how we're making progress. But if you believe Dubyah, which I'm not even sure Laura and the twins do anymore -- except for the prison assaults and the assassinations and the suicide bombings and the boots on the ground getting buried -- things are actually pretty good. It's that darn media that's screwing everything up. By showing stuff. Showing bad stuff.

If only that rascally American press could report some of the Good Stuff coming out of the Mideast, everyone would settle down. Birds would sing, gay people would drink beer and have babies, and all would be right with the world. So, being the patriot that I am, I've gone out, done the research, and collected a bunch of the Good Stuff coming out of Iraq in a little something I like to call...

Now compare Working Asset’s homepage with the Verizon homepage and tell me who you’ve got to love.

UPDATE: I get no, repeat no, remuneration from either Working Assets or Verizon, etc., for anything that I write. Drat!.
