• Robert Wyckoff :

  As will I.... But I gave thanks in '68 when Johnson declined to run, and again in '74 when Nixon resigned, and in '88 when it looked like we had seen the last of Reagan, and each time I never imagined that what was soon to follow would be even worse.... Do I see a pattern here?

• john weiss :
  • you are exactly correct, Robert. enthusing over the end of Bush's term is naive-- the neo-con republican machine which put him there will live on, and will put more politicians in power at every level of government. we need to break that machine, by prosecuting it's crimes. that's why i disagree with anti-impeachment dems who say, "just wait until we get a dem in there, then everything will be better." more here: Naysayers at "Picnic To Impeach"
  • Ben, your textbox does not work quite right, in firefox when i click on it, it tries to auto-select the contents, but it doesn't work right. i'm linking you on my site.
  • ben, wish i did not have to register with type pad to leave comments on credo, you already have my email address for credo. i'm overwhelmed with accounts.

  Hi Ben - thanks for the counter! I've added it to my site too. I did want to let you know that it appears to be slightly too wide for the Typepad sidebar of my blog (in Firefox and IE7) - you can see the effect here.

  But I'm still thrilled to have it. Thanks again!

  it's a great widget, and i'd love to use it, but it appears 'cut & paste' doesn't work for my MySpace account.
  what change is needed in the code?

• Mittineague :

  I also posted this at the 2008/01/only_a_year_to_go.html page, but there's a typo in the copy - paste code. "widgets.js" should be the singular "widget.js".

  It works fine for me in my WordPress blog. I put it in the sidebar text widget. I changed language=javascript to type="text/javascript" (I'm picky), and I put quotes around the attribute values and commented out the link tag so it would validate.

• Mittineague :

  P.S.
  Although the Bush term may end, I've heard some say that there will be another "terrorist" attack before the term runs out and Bush can declare Marshall Law to continue his Presidency.

  A scary thought, let's hope it's only paranoid musings.

  And of course if the Legislature doesn't ensure trustwothy voting, the election results could be indisprovably hacked (yet again?). It only would take the manipulation of a relatively small number of votes in a few Florida districts to change the outcome. Distract attention by an Ohio red-herring and have the MSM poo-poo conspiracy theory and there it is. More of the same.

  I would like to put this on my blog but I can't figure out how to make it work...

• ben :

  I tested this out on blogger/blogspot yesterday.

  It should work if you get rid of the .css part of the script. Try this:

  
  <script type="text/javascript"
  src="http://credoaction.com/widgets/widget.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript">WriteBushCountdown()</script>
