YOUR AFTERNOON BUZZ

Army Whistleblower Draws Fire; Bunny Greenhouse could lose her job

because she said that companies like Halliburton were taking advantage

of the American taxpayers. " Bunny has a lot of faith. She really

believes that someone will stand up and say, 'This is wrong.' But I

don't think a person exists like that in the Department of Defense. "

Nor anywhere in the entire Bush administration.

Bush to sign energy bill; " Even the bill's sponsors acknowledged the

legislation will have little, if any impact, on today's energy prices

or wean the nation away from its thirst for oil. " Another waste of

taxpayer dollars, courtesy of George Bush and the GOP.

Cindy Sheehan, whose son died serving America in Iraq, digs in to meet

Bush, who is still avoiding her at press time as he vacations, yet

again, at Crawford. Always beware of Bush on vacation. In 2001, 9/11

occurred after his vacation, which he was on after being warned of Al

Qaeda hijacking planes in the U.S. -- and he did NOTHING to stop them.

NOTHING!
