Bush finally does something to support the troops.
WTF?!? Is it Christmas Day already?
Who’s this Robert Gates then?
If I’m dreaming, don’t wake me.
And with Britney Spears divorcing K-Fed-up, it’s like a Trifecta of goodness. :-p
Robert Gates, former CIA operative, great mate of the Bush family.
So much for the Joe Leiberman theory.
I mean “director”.
Reporters are nailing Bush.
1) What about your comments about that a win for Democrats is a win for terrorists?
Spin, spinning Bush
2) What about that Cheney pretty much said that the Prez and Veep weren’t up for re-election and would do whatever they wanted?
No answer again. “Somehow it seeped it steeped into their conscience that I said say the course. I need to do a better job of explaining that I am constantly adjusting.”
WHAT A WANKER.
Wait, is that a pony?
The Bush news conference is a disaster.
The President sounds bizarre.
“I knew you’d start to try to get me negotiating with myself.”
Did Rush slip the President some meds to ease him through this difficult period of…what shall we call it…losing?!?!
Jesus damn theres too much good news now, I’m running out of champagne to uncork. Dems take the house, Dems take the senate, Rumsfield stepping down, Media actually asking questions about Bush lying, Damn if Cheney has another heart attack I’ll have no way to celebrate.
This song’s been running around in my head all day, and it just got a little louder:
NA NA NA NA,
NA NA NA NA,
HEY HEY,
GOODBYE!
Come on, Rex, that might be too far.
Besides, he would need to actually have a heart. I think he had that pesky thing remove 2 years ago.
*removed*
So Rumsfeld will step down and our troops will get what? PuppetMark2? It’ll be another Bush Stay-the-Courser coupled with nasty confirmation hearings.
Prediction: Cheney resigns “for health reasons” within 6 months.
Just because nobody would believe he wants to spend more time with Lynne.
Has Hugh Hewitt floated a Rumsfeld-for-Supreme-Court trial balloon yet?
To reiterate a comment I saw on a thread discussing gay prostitute drug user Ted Haggard:
IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE A SCHADENFREUDE ORGASM??
Excuse me, I meant to say “rushed confirmation process”. Dems need to delay, delay.
Rex
That was truly ugly - bastard.
wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow
man where are they trolls that typically lurk every single thread?
i wonder what could POSSIBLY have caused rumsfeld to step down?
i hope the next big story is the one about the heads of all conservative talk radio hosts exploding from the events of the last 24 hrs.
PS freerepublic.com is certain America will be renamed Surrenderville, with new taxpayer funded mandatory abortions and gay-marrying.
Bush lied about Rumsfeld leaving.
The geniuses at RedState are starting to turn on The Decider:
The only sad part is that Rumsfled didn’t leave before he killed half a million Iraqis.
“Rex
That was truly ugly - bastard.”
Why don’t you hang it up Dugger?
It’s okay, Dugger, just replace “Cheney” with “Clinton” and it’s automatically PERFECTLY OKAY
It was ugly. We don’t want Cheney to have a heart attack. I’d like to see him in prison, but dead, no.
Eh, if he’d seemed as if he was actually seriously wishing him dead I’d have more of a problem.
I’d much rather have Cheney around, [metaphorically]toothless and impotent, watching his mandate crumble.
who else thinks rumsfeld is stepping down to avoid indictment while in office?
And with Britney Spears divorcing K-Fed-up, it’s like a Trifecta of goodness. :-p
Good one.
Damn if Cheney has another heart attack I’ll have no way to celebrate.
Rex, was that necessary?
Rumsfeld is resigning so Bush can place another loyalist clone in office. With a fresh-looking slate he feels he can shift blame for his failed Iraq strategy onto Dems in time for the next election. “I replaced Rumsfeld, Dems took the congress and the violence and hopelessness still continues, see, it’s not my fault.”
600,000 dead Iraqis are still less offensive than a bad Cheney joke? Check.
“Rex, was that necessary?”
Oh boy, the Civility Police have arrived.
I’ll just note that both Dugger and Jay pooh pooh rough humor while they support torture — a policy which will hopefully be reigned in as our new Congress demands that the president actually abide by the law and the terms of our treaty obligations.
My God I love this picture:
http://www.uploadfile.info/uploads/8136b01375.jpg
That picture’s crying out for the sad-Charlie Brown music from the “Peanuts” cartoons.
Dugger.. Jay.. relax, man.
Cheney’s been taking make-up cues from this guy for at least the last two years…
Now that Rummie is umemployed maybe he can get himself an age exemption and head over to Baghdad to lend a hand. Maybe he can take thirty-five or so other like minded folk with him.
Oh dear how dreadfully sorry I am, apparently I misspoke and people are accusing me of being crass. Allow me to restate it then.
“Damn, if Cheney shoots another close friend of his while he’s on this hunting trip and covers it up for several days, I’ll have no way to celebrate.”
Now, dont we all feel better?
Oop, forgot to add “gets caught at it and humiliated over it”
Darn these misspeaking fingers of mine. Darn them to heck.
Is Rumsfeld just stepping down so he has more time to try on his orange jumpsuit?
Silly Rummy, you can still be tried for war crimes when you’re not Secretary of War!
Nimmer
“It’s okay, Dugger, just replace “Cheney” with “Clinton” and it’s automatically PERFECTLY OKAY”
Just for consistencies sake, check back on my posts when Clinton has his bypass surgery. Want to bet I wished him nothing but good health and a quick recovery (been there)?
Yeah. I’m in a bad mood, but I don’t see the humor in wishing somebody on the other side dead (aren’t the political victories enough?) - and sometimes Rex can be decent.
You must be taking that comment out of context. “Damn if Cheney has another heart attack I’ll have no way to celebrate”.
Right there he states that he will not celebrate if Cheney has a heart attack.
Also no heart attack has killed him yet, bear in mind. Bit of a stretch there to say I want him dead.
Alright, fair enough, I let the last 24 hours make me a little crazy. Didn’t mean offense… well okay I guess I did, but I’m an ass for it and I’m sorry. For the record my mother is celebrating last month one year since her successful triple bypass. Didnt mean to make light of legitimate cardiac conditions there. *extends hand in dugger-ly direction* I’m a sorry ass. Agreed?
Good on ya, Rex. Well done. You sounded like someone from Redstate or LGF before.
God. Why apologize to an asshole like Dugger? Fuck him and fuck Cheney.
They’ll both whine and mewl about “civility” while winking and chuckling over torture.
Dugger wouldn’t care if a million Iraqis were killed next week he’d come right back and smugly post: “Still more dead under Saddam.”
This is the man you’re going to allow to define civility and taste?
No-one would have batted an eyelid about that joke over here, unless a public figure actually made it about another one. Dunno what that says.
In other news, Fox News is reporting that Hastert won’t run for a made-up congressional position that does so exist shut up.
http://thinkprogress.org/2006/11/08/hastert-minority-speaker/
“You sounded like someone from Redstate or LGF before.”
No he didn’t. He sounded like someone who was legitimately fed up with a corrupt administration.
Like the assholes who still suggest that Kerry really meant what he said, Dugger played civility card despite a long history of odious scumbaggery and the clealry humorous context of the comment. He’s an idiot.
Oh, I know what you’re saying, Frame, and I completely agree. I’m mad as hell and I’m not gonna take it anymore. Also noted is the hypocrisy of dugger et al endorsing torture on “enemy combatants” but if you say “I hope you die” to the VP, they cry.
I’m just pointing out that there is no need for us on the left to become that which we despise, i.e. LGF-posters.
Besides, you need a heart to have a heart attack.
Well firstly Frame, that apology was as much to myself as anything. Duros’ analogy to RedState and the Little Green Fuckwits was frankly a little apt to my comment, and even though I feel it was coming from a different place, that kind of hateful toady scumbag is not something I want to become today of all days.
Second, I’m not allowing him to define civility and taste, I’m letting his comment give me a chance to define it myself. I disagree with the Dugg one on just about every issue I can think of, but I refuse to let that fact rob me of my humanity. I rather hope he doesnt either, or for that matter anyone, cause in my view, that’s the kind of thing that got us this deep in the cacky in the first place.
Third, yeah, Fuck Cheney. Not fuck hin to death, just fuck him.
“Not fuck hin to death, just fuck him.”
LOL. That’s the spirit!
As with everything else in sociopath George Bush’s life, he has f**cked up so bad, that Daddy and his friends are coming to get him out of trouble once again and the fool still thinks he is doing a good job! He hands up Don Rumsfeld on the sacrificial alter,and as the pampered moron who thinks he is entitled to the benefit of doubt, the idiot is smirking and smiling as he always does when he dosen’t know what is going on in the real world and as soliders, the elderly, the unemployed, the uninsured, the hungry, have to continue to hear from this man who lacks any form of empathy and takes responsibility for what he has done. Incredible.
I meant he does NOT take responsibility. A**hole!
Whee!
I did love the comment the Prez made - it was basically another - “no one could have predicted moment…” wether it be planes crashing in buildings or levee’s breaking - it is now a Democratic Wave of Victory. His handlers sure keep him in the dark…
I.
Love.
Watching.
Pedugger.
Squirm.
And.
Spew.
LoL!!!
I don’t know who would want to take over Rumsfeld’s job. Brownie, maybe? He know about A-rab horses, at least.
rex
Thanks. Don’t blame for you celebrating at all. I would too. I hope the Dems (and the R Pres) make things work well. Sometimes this situation can leads to good governance - with the victorious party not wanting to go too far and the losing party wanting to reach out. They meet in the middle.
Don’t feel so bad, dugger. You were no more out of touch with the pulse of the American people than the wankers of NRO’s Corner. http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=NWZkZmNmMGY2OGMyMTU2MjczNjEzYjQyZDMzZDU4M2Y=

“Sometimes this situation can leads to good governance - with the victorious party not wanting to go too far and the losing party wanting to reach out.”
You’ve spent the last two years distorting the dem record, attacking its leaders as traitors and defending the failed extremist policies of the bush administration with some of the most contorted, asinine “thinking” imaginable and now you think the dems shouldn’t go tto far? That they should compromise with republicans?
Go fuck yourself, dugger. Seriously, just go fuck yourself.
I second frameone’s sentiments!!
to frame the racist,
Get back on the meds.
If not, snot-nosed punk, I challenge you to provide just one reference where I called the Dem leaders traitors. Just one, you stinking brown-skin hating racist. If not, you are not only a brown-skin hating racist but a lying SOB. Now have at it, racist.
Your pal, Dugger
Did I mention you are a racist?
Is that Dugger making an oblique joke or someone pretending to be Dugger satirising him?
