London Death Toll at 37 with 700 Injured

I expect - sadly - we will see this figure climb.

But while Americans are already said to be glued to their TV sets, worried it may happen here, we're hearing that Londoners are strictly "business as usual".

We need to take a lesson from them. We can't suddenly pretend Mr. Bush's performance is any better than it was four years ago or yesterday.

The questions raised by Downing Street remain. This White House is still responsible for a terrible debacle in Iraq. This White House is also responsible for outing a CIA operative strictly for retaliation against the truth, still working hard to make us more rather than less hated in the world, still bullying the rest of the globe, still eager to take your Social Security away, your jobs and pension, your health care and your hope. And every day, in every way, as they spend a fortune without making us safer, they find new ways to take away the liberty you hold so dear.
