This administration is the most transparently blatant since Nixon in '74, before he faced impeachment.But, even Nixon had some redeeming qualities, whereas George W. appears to have none. If Dubya was more concerned about the future of this country, than his oft repeated legacy, he might be more involved about closure of some of these current debacles, rather than palming them off to Hillary.

Being a quasi-historian, my pick for the worst of the first 43, will be George W. Bush hands down.

Was it from Daddy and his indulgence. Was it from Darth Vader Cheney and political bedfellow, Rumsfeld. Was it from Karl Rove, the reincarnation of his dead mentor, Lee Atwater, Mr. Dirty Tricks. Was it from Daddy greasing his way into Skull and Bones, looking for the dumbest of asses with a name, to make an indelible vile mark upon the world.

And his unrelenting fiscal irresponsibility (ballooning the debt from $3 trillion to an unprecendented $9 trillion in 6 short years).

And his obvious disdain and non-adherence to the dictates of the other 2 branches of government.

Is this the biological view? The random confluence of all these variables completing the biggest fuckhead this world has ever seen?

My God, we're in trouble!

RICE, POWELL, PETRAEUS, MUKASEY, GATES ETC., ETC.

THEY MAY HAVE STARTED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS, BUT DEVELOP DISEASED MINDS, INFECTED BY THE WHITE HOUSE HAS DRIVEN ALL ORIGINAL MAJOR CHARACTERS OUT, EXCEPT THE TWO WHO CAN ONLY BE IMPEACHED TO BE REMOVED.

BUSH HAS SNUBBED HIS NOSE AT THE LEGISLATIVE AND THE JUDICIARY,

DOING JUST WHAT HE WANTS, LEGAL OR NOT, WITH LITTLE CONFRONTATION FROM ANYONE IN POWER.

THE RECENT WAR PROTESTS THIS LAST WEEKEND ARE A BEGINNING, LIKE THOSE DURING THE VIETNAM ERA, THAT CONTRIBUTED TO IT'S END.

THIS IS A SPARK WHICH SHOULD GROW INTO A CONFLAGRATION OF OPPOSITION, AND END THIS NIGHTMARE BUSH HAS WROUGHT UPON THE NATION

Bunker mentality has taken an iron grip of the White House.

Combine this latest 'disaster of the mouth' by Petraeus' aide,the over caculating of sniper attacks which resulted in The Pentagon's request for $1.4 billion, the reluctance of the AJ nominee to call a type of torture.........torture, and the mock FEMA press conference which didn't have the press participating, should mandate Congress to stop pussyfooting and bending over backwards for the Administration.

The Presidential candidates aren't helping either, while casualty lists increase by the day.

One important consideration that no one can have any qualms about is the Dole-Shalala proposal.

Not one of their six recommendations have gotten anything more than lip service from Bush.

The protests of the 100,000 this last weekend will do nothing

but escalate into something much more dire.

So let's get off our collective asses and scream to everyone in the legislative and executive branches, we're finished putting up with this crap.

I predict there will be a watershed moment that will make Kent State look like a picnic.

Mukasey, Powell, Gates, Rice, Petraeus and half the Justice Department had started out with good intentions, only to become Bush lackeys.

No major White House participant is neither in the same position, or any position at all.

The fecal is about to hit the rotary oscillator.

Let's hope Bush goes in quiet shame ala tricky Dicky.

NOW THAT PETRAEUS HAS BEEN DISCREDITED, HE SENDS HIS LACKEY

TO FACE THE BARRAGE

WHAT GOOBERS.

BOYLAN AND

MUKASEY (WE'RE STILL WAITING FOR YOUR DECLARATION THAT WATERBOARDING IS NOT TORTURE)

WHY SHOULD YOU BE DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER LYIN' BASTARD IN THE

ADMINISTRATION

Just when you think Bush backs down and brings someone up for nomination with a scintilla of integrity, they prove to be nothing more than another White House lackey.

e.g. Rice, Gates, Powell, Petraeus and now Mukasey et. al.

These people come in, with hopes from all of us, only to be labelled as nothing more than a puppet for the Administration.

One example I particularly like, is when Petraeus was asked if he was influenced at all, by the White House. He was adamant, and said absolutely not.

He was seen, going to the White House, for marathon sessions with a political brainwasher.

Corruptible???????????

You tell me.

GEORGE BUSH HAS BANNED ALL POLLS.

THIS IS AN EXECUTIVE ORDER, NOT OPEN TO ANY SCRUTINY, ESPECIALLY FROM AN OBSTINATE, IGNORANT CONGRESS.

AND GEORGE SAID, MORE IMPORTANTLY THESE SCATHING, VICIOUS AND DISTRACTING ATTACKS ARE DEMORALIZING HIS STALWART, YET DWINDLING ADMINISTRATION.

LET'S SUPPORT OUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF AND UNANIMOUSLY DO AWAY WITH THIS UNPATRIOTIC, YEH, NEARLY TREASONOUS ACTIVITY.

YEAH, RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GEORGE BUSH HAS BANNED ALL POLLS.

THIS HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED BY EXECUTIVE ORDER, WITH NO NEED OF SCRUTINY OF AN OBSTINATE, IGNORANT CONGRESS.

SO, LET'S SUPPORT OUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF AGAINST THIS ACTION, WHICH IS UNPATRIOTIC, YEH TREASONOUS OPERATION.

MAKE IT UNANINIMOUS.

YEAH, RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GEORGE BUSH HAS BANNED ALL POLLS

HE SAYS, HE'S THE 'DECIDER' AND KNOWS MUCH MORE THAN THE 'GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE'

HE'S CONVENIENTLY DONE THIS BYPASSING AN OBSTINATE AND IGNORANT CONGRESS.

LET'S SUPPORT OUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF AND MAKE THIS UNIVERSALLY UNANIMOUS.

YEAH...............RIGHT!!!!!!

ARROGANCE AND TRANSPARENT IGNORANCE.

THIS GUY (HE CALLS HIMSELF GARRY OWENS), APPEARS TO BE IN SELF IMPOSED EXILE.

HOPEFULLY, IT'LL BE A LONG TERM COMMITMENT.

LET'S ALL ENCOURAGE HIM.

When Hillary lies, no one should confront her?

I'm for her, but when she does something so blatant just to get cozy with a Democrat who's a whacko, she really can't afford being two faced.

Hillary, you stumbled, but as the parent of a recalcitrant child, "Don't do that again, or you'll get heck."

Thanks Russert and Edwards, for helping to set her straight.

Classified, whether waterboarding is torture? Bush says this is classified and since Mukasey may have to deal with this in a future case, he can't make the obvious determination presently.

What a crock of shit.

We gave the Democrats a mandate a year ago, and what have they done...........Zip, Zero, Nada, Nothing, Zilch.
