The thing I find most disconserting in this whole charade is the good general's willingness to play along. At every level of this administration, they've found people ready and able to politicize some heretofore nonpartisan position or department in government. Top to bottom, our government parrots the Bush line, which is usually contrary to the public good - or worse. Whether it's Gonzales and his cronies, oilmen in charge of energy policy, Republican operatives editing climate change reports by respected scientists or today's "report" by General Numbnuts, our government has become entiely appropriated as nothing more than a mouthpiece for the most mendacious, incompetent and cynical people to hold its reigns in my lifetime. How did he get 4 stars, LK? Hell, I bet Bush gives him another after today's tap-dance on the truth. Being a good Bushie is always better than being good at whatever job you used to be good at. Heckuva job, General. | ||

Yeah, I get your drift - he got all that fruit salad by tossing Bush's.... Mendacious - an excellent word. And perfect to describe what's been going on... There is some comfort to be had by realizing that, after this little performance, BetrayUs will be hopelessly and forever tainted, will have zero credibility, and will, from here on in, be seen as a Bush stooge. A little like Colin Powell, but devoid of even the smidgen of integrity he once had. | ||

All this just makes me glad Bush is not my president. Did I really say that? Damn, there goes my country music career down the toilet!! | ||

Well, he ain't exactly my president either. I didn't vote for his sorry ass... But still, your point is well-taken. And, sorry about your country music career. Hang up the platinum wig and the rhinestone culottes... | ||

Can I quote y'all in the documentary about my comeback? I’ll of course thank you all personally in my speech when I collect my Grammy in the “best comeback from having pissed off right-wing America” category. Dubya’s not really anybody’s president, unless you count his cronies and the large corporations making truck-loads of cash on the back of his decisions. (And they're probably making those decisions in the first place) | ||

Dubya's the president to a key group of 40 some Republican US Senators, and that's all that matters these days. As long as the report and testimony that the "numbnuts with 4 stars" and ambassador Ryan Crocked satisfies those 40 some, then Bush is home free for the next 16 months to let the next president solve the Iraq problem. There just doesn't seem to be a "tipping point" or "smoking gun" for those 40 some. A half a dozen to a dozen will need to be voted out of office in 2008. |
