I would have given money TO and voted FOR Jim-fucking-Talent. It won't happen again . . . fool me once shame on you . . . fool me twice . . . WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN!!
You might as well be asking Tony Soprano if he thinks he's a good Catholic . . . whatever that may be these days.
jug-eared, squinty-eyed, draft-dodgin', drunk-drivin', coke-snorting', lyin',. thievin' IMBECILES?????
Seems hard to believe . . . but it would explain a lot of things I see every day.
Nah . . . I think George paid cash for his place . . . or one of his Dad's friends or somebody . . . who can remember those kinda details??
Personally, I believe Powell has been a lying shill for The Man ever since he investigated claims of an incident at a little village called My Lai. When Powell was through with HIS investigation, he found nothing wrong had occurred.
Unbeknownst to Powell, a separate complaint had been made, and the other guy actually did HIS job.
If you're waiting for Powell to step up - don't hold your breath.
they need to sweat a WHOLE LOT to keep the processor humming.
Bush . . . not so much.
That's why he don't sweat in the heat.
When we have SO MUCH to be thankful about:
the Military Commissions Act, warrantless wiretapping, war in Iraq and Afghanistan, disaster brewing in Pakistan, a planned strike against Iran, hurricane season coming on, global warming, the extinction of the Yangtze dolphin, mules foaling, the Yankees trying for the wild-card slot, Scooter Libby's commutation, 50 million uninsured Americans in the richest nation on earth, a moron in the White House, with an asshole as VEEP . . . why would anyone be angry . . . being ANGRY is just so filled with negativity . . .
In my case it was the 6'0" red-haired 17 bully who tried to suckerpunch me during a 4-square game. When I ducked my head, he hit me square on top of the skull, and you could hear each of at least 17 of the 27 bones in his right hand crackling like corn sheaves.
They never did get his hand screwed together quite right.
Like she knows about rock 'n roll? Or movies? Because she serves up warmed-over homilies from the post-menopausal-hot chick-department?
Why not ask Madonna? Or Tipper Gore? Somebody with some credibility . . .
As for you Tiberius, I'd really like him better if he'd ever had a blow job, instead of just giving them to Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld and all the other neocon nancy-boys he allowed to destroy our nation's stature around the world.
The most incompetent and incurious of leaders, and the one most likely to filter quickly top the bottom of the presidential honors list.
Vacation -- it's a way of life for a guy who has never done anhonest days' work in his privileged life as preppie, frat-boy, cheerleader, failed businessman, and worst president in history.
The next Attorney General - if he/she is to be confirmed by the Senate - will have to face an inquisition the likes of which we have not seen in a generation or two.
The goddam Democrats might even expect that anyone seeking confirmation as Attorney General might have to promise - under oath - to ENFORCE THE LAW. Which would result in Bush's impeachment and indictment for violations of Title 50 US Code, Chapter 36, Subchapter 1, Sections 1800 et seq., among other crimes to notable and numerous to elucidate herein.
Far better to settle for a recess appointment while Congress is ON FUCKING VACATION.
Its also the perfection of her image, her hair, her lip gloss, and then the total absence of spark in her eyes, "black eyes, like a doll's eyes".
And, she's probably a Republican, which explains a lot about why we're in Iraq and George Bush has yet to be impeached, removed, indicted, tried and convicted, and imprisoned for the rest of his unnatural life.
He is also the lawyer responsible for, along with John Fuck Yoo and the Horse Yoo Rode In On Yoo, for the most egregious legal memoranda authorizing torture, illegal wiretapping, extraordinary renditions, and generally all the un-American thug-like actions of our government over the last 6+ years.
Addington - along with Yoo - needs to be classified as an "aider of unlawful enemy combatants" - flown to Gitmo with head in a black burlap sack, thrown in a cell - and left there forever to rot without recourse to habeas (another of his noxious theories).
These folk are traitors and betrayers of all that America should stand for.
Excuse me, Mr. Former-cheerleader-draft-dodger-drunk-driver-coke-snorter-insider-trader-AWOL-punk, but you never kicked ass in your life. Or is that going to be your big story to tell after you're out of office and on the lecture circuit replenishing the old coffers?
Are you gonna be telling everyone how you kicked ass in Iraq and too fucking bad about the 650,000+ dead Iraqis and the 4,000 dead GI's . . . but you sure kicked ass? Is that your schtick, Mr. President??
Way I understand it - in the pertinent case law, you basically have to prove you are illiterate or a non-English speaker in order to get a Mulligan once you plead guilty.
Larry Craig, hypocrite and convicted criminal, is a member of the United States Senate, and as such, voted to confirm Justices Roberts and Alito.
We should take a look at their opinions in cases where misfeasors have attempted to withdraw pleas and game the system.
Cause he sure likes to parade that chestful of sparkly medals in front of Congress, but I get the feeling his mind is elsewhere and he's only doing it for the money.
We've got over 700+ military bases in 130 countries.
We're bulding a huge base in Iraq just 4 miles from the Iranian border. We're building the biggest embassy/consular facility on the planet outside Baghdad. So we're not leaving . . . until the petroleum runs out.
And then, we'll be gone, solid gone.
