Russian and China call on Iran to suspend uranium enrichment. More evidence that Bush's plan of constantly ratcheting up the pressure is working. Iran further restricts IAEA in response to sanctions. There had to be a reason Russia and China turned on their proxy, and here it is: US banking policy has cut off funds to Tehran.

China and Russia tighten their alliance in the new Cold War of Terror. China's government is walking a tightrope with internal policy.

Gonzales has blown his credibility with Republicans too. It seems everybody has decided the Bush administration is incompetent- Robert Novak says Bush is more isolated than even Nixon. I can't believe it took 6 years. The sad part is that Democrats are even worse, and that's why Bush won 2 elections.
