They shoot horses
[Read the article: Dick Cheney's top aide: "We're one bomb away" from our goal]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I know Bush is invoking “executive privilege” but it also seems that it is a “secret” so awful that no one will even think about leaking it. When someone such as Goldsmith (who dismisses “civil liberties” in a rather cavalier manner) is so appalled that even he had to resign, I’m at a lost to imagine just what Cheney and Addington were up to.
How long can they realistically keep this secret?
-- _zack_[my emphasis]
Did Goldsmith "resign", or was Goldsmith pushed out with a horses head placed beside him in his bed?

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Barnett Rubin is the last person to set off wild speculation about war with Iran: the longtime Afghanistan expert is wonky, moderate and thoroughly analytical. But that's exactly what happened on Wednesday, when Rubin blogged that an anonymous, plugged-in friend told him that Dick Cheney's office had issued "instructions" to conservative think tanks like the American Enterprise Institute to start a drumbeat for attacking Iran.
Cheney's likely motivation for issuing such instructions to his think-tank allies would be to win an inter-administration battle over the future of Iran policy. Cheney, an advocate of confronting the Iranians militarily, faces opposition from the Joint Chiefs of Staff,

Is it okay with you, Adnoto, that I cherish (and bragg on) the fact that the "joint chief of staff" are saying 'fuck you' to Cheney, as I, and millions of Americans, have asked them to do? And as I requested on this blog of them to do? To which you came all over yourself while dissing me for not being the 'stand-up guy' that you think you are?

[Read more letters about this article: Here]LB,
Just a friendly suggestion here -- you may want to consider ignoring Kitt altogether. He is very angry, very emotionally invested and not very bright. It is an ugly combination, as perhaps you have already noticed.
-- adnoto
Since I am indeed angry, and since I am indeed emotionally invested, I'll let my friend, Ruby, speak for me on this one.
Ruby from Cold Mountain said: "Number one!, Adnoto, you outdone yurself with the,'I am the calm shit' routine! And number two, two out of three ain't baad. And number three, Too baad that third one is the one that really matters for helping to expose what an ass and an arrogant fool you are."

Adnoto...and all of you all
[Read the article: Dick Cheney's top aide: "We're one bomb away" from our goal]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Case any of you all - and the self described winner of all that is attainable through bullshit, Adnoto - was wonderin', this is a picture of my friend, Ruby. Ruby is the one who put in an opinion for me earlier on about Adnoto. Ruby is sitting along side of her friend, Ada Monroe. Ruby is on the left in the picture.

[Read the article: Dick Cheney's top aide: "We're one bomb away" from our goal]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I am right there with you Che. I am curious to see who else sees things the way we do. I received no response, save some blathering from a usual suspect, when I linked to Floyd earlier.
Have any other commenters here at UT bothered to read Floyd's essay? Has GG? I am truly curious.
-- adnoto
Gee, Mr. Brave Adnoto? I sure hope you aren't referring to the Joint Chiefs of Staff as "some blathering from a usual suspect". That would be so unlike your usual egotistical, brave to the bone, all knowing self. Please show us the way!

[Read more letters about this article: Here]What are the relevant attributes you see in the picture? What virtues are embodied in this guy's image? I thought you had an argument to make, but apparently you're ashamed to post it in public.
I hope you never try this unworthy stunt again.

Anyone can lose their hair. That's not a signal of a lack of masculinity or lack of an ability to take care of yourself or your loved ones in a pinch. But to be pudgy as that little kid, Pugsly of The Adams Family, and to be as pasty as the Pillsburry Doughboy, well I wouldn't go around calling people "sissy marys" no matter what, but if I looked like that guy, I'd be extra careful not to do that. For one thing, if he ever really does get pushed around or forced to defend himself he'd run out of oxygen in about 10 seconds. That's not to mention the bloody nose.
Get a reality check. The guy looks like your classic fricking dweeb. There is nothing wrong with that on it's face, but if you're going to put out insulting shit like does, well, you're dead meat.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]You'd better strap the thing up tight against your crotch, because if you don't, the moment you pull, say, two G's, the suit starts to inflate, and you'll be singing soprano shortly thereafter. Bush, a former fighter pilot, knew this full well, but I'm sure the naval aviators with him probably reminded him, too.
No room for a codpiece, Glenn, but yours and others speculation as to such speak volumes, as does your obsession with having your manliness challenged.

How does having a codpiece firmly in place make it any problem to "strap the thing up tight against your crotch"? If the codpiece is in place, it is, for all intents and purposes, "your crotch". Ain't it?
