Whatever Happened To Hank Paulson?

For some reason I have been wondering these last few days: what the heck happened to Hank Paulson? The former Wall Street Wizard for Goldman Sachs turned Secretary Of The Treasury under George W. Bush, he presided over the near-economic collapse of the United States. Not many treasury secretaries can profess to such things.
Not only [...]

Rummy: Killing Us From The Inside

That’s how the reign of Donald Rumsfeld should always be remembered.

Thanks W

As if it wasn’t good enough to have Cheney, Limbaugh, and Gingrich on the wrong side of history there’s almost nobody I’d prefer to have on the opposite side of the issues from President Obama than George W. Bush. Bush left the White House in shame, the nation in shambles. One of the major reasons [...]

I (Don’t) Wanna Hold Your Hand

As far as I’ve seen so far – correct me if I’m wrong – but it seems President Obama will not emulate President Bush’s hand-holding (literally) with the Saudi royal family.

Cheney Torture Authorization/Suggestion For Iraq-Al Qaeda “Link”?

We know for sure that Dick Cheney and his crew were obsessed with proving some sort of link between Iraq and Al Qaeda. That was their golden key to provoking the nation into war. But there now seems to be some evidence that Cheney pushed for torture in order to prove this – and not, [...]

Pelosi & The CIA? Bush Was Still The Trigger Man

My guess? Speaker Pelosi is, at best, being misleading about what the CIA did and didn’t tell her. In all likelihood? She’s probably lying. But does it really matter?
After 9/11, the Democrats not only lost their marbles the way the rest of us did at the horror, they also had their spines turn to jelly [...]

4th Grader Asks Condoleezza Rice About Torture

Kind of says where the last administration took the country.

Her remarks were in response to a question from Misha Lerner, a fourth-grader at the Jewish Primary Day School of the Nation’s Capital, The Washington [...]

The Bush Library, Powered By Exxon?

That probably explains the kind of money involved in raising $100 million for the Bush library. Then again, better they waste their money there than infect our government. Sally forth with your library devoted to a champion of the devaluation of knowledge!

It Doesn’t Matter If Pelosi Knew

As John notes, whether Nancy Pelosi knew or didn’t know about the Bush administration’s authorization and execution of torture doesn’t matter. Either Pelosi didn’t know or she abdicated her responsibility as a political leader and American by not speaking up and opposing it. Either way, it doesn’t matter.
What matters is that the government tortured people.
(The [...]

Thank God He’s The EX President

George W. Bush didn’t know what the G-20 was. Eight years. Sweet Jesus.
UPDATE: The story is apparently in dispute. And yet, it isn’t as if George W. Bush was on top of a lot of the rudimentary details of being leader of the free world.

Bush Is Writing A Memoir

You shall know the idiots by their Barnes & Noble purchases.

The George W. Bush Reclamation Project

It’s going to be fun watching serial liars like Ari Fleischer attempt to commit media flub jobs on the legacy of George W. Bush, one of the worst presidents we’ve ever had in the entire history of the country. These people, who left America broken and bloodied and lying in a ditch want us to [...]

Worst Soon To Be Ex-President Ever, Says America

America delivers the final kick in the butt to George W. Bush.
