WE AREN'T ALL THAT DIFFERENT

Kevin Drum fesses up to his obsession with the George W Bush National Guard story.

How long ago was that?

Today, Kev brings it all up again because someone else has and his starter got wound up.

Bush National Guard Story Lives

Take a look at the comments. Full of the same kind of trivial conspiracy rehash that we went through in 2000.

This is a lot like the Republican whack jobs I love to mock.

Look. A lot of guys used the National Guard to hide out in the Viet era.

Before that a lot of guys used ROTC and other programs too do the same thing. The Reserves.

I have a story as good as Georgies as it happens. It is just that I didn't run for President or anything else that looked into my dereliction of duty.

I managed to scam my way out of going to the Berlin crisis.

Am I contrite about it? Do I feel bad? No.

No one was dying in that scrape at all but two years of career and family going down the shitter wasn't worth it. Period.

Bush did his slipping when the 'Nam thing was turning down.

I know. There are grades of malingering but he didn't have a monopoly on it by any means.

AND A PHONY COWBOY

Look at this

Bush is scared of horses

This gives some versimilitude to the famous Will Farrell Bush ad.

TRUTH IN ADVERTISING

I had forgotten about the Freeway Blogger.

How nice to see him still at work.

This 'action' took place in Chicago and lasted 15 minutes.

I certainly share the sentiments.

NO TO JUST SAY NO

All the pillars are crumbling.

States 'Abstain' From Federal Sex-Ed Funds

The thing is that they just do not work. To say nothing of the fact that kids are being misinformed or not informed at all.

For example, the Fed money prevents teaching boys to put on a condom. Also, that condoms are permeable to HIV. It is all religious scare stuff. Bastards.

It is so infuriating that they would have done such a thing in the first place that it is a big laugh to see it all undone.

Rhetoric ain't politics.

ALONE

Now, he has lost his own people.

Washington Post: Unwilling to do the White House's heavy lifting on Iraq, Senate Republicans are prepared to step aside to allow language requiring troop withdrawals to pass in a $122 billion war-spending package that includes a target date of March 31, 2008, for ending most U.S. combat operations in Iraq. Sen. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said he will no longer block the bill from reaching President Bush, forcing him to face down Democratic adversaries with his veto pen..........From the WSJ on-line

Another milestone on the downward spiral.

Where will it end?

GALBRAITH/ESROSE FACTORS

J. Kenneth Galbraith, the wit, statesman and economist, developed the theory that says, in part, that four statements of "I will not resign" by any public figure means that he will.

By my count Gonzo is up to three.

Today's call from the President, wherein bushie stated his support, complicates the calculation.

I have a parallel theory.

The esrose formulation is that four public statements of support by the president to his troubled henchmen means that they will be replaced within the week.

Rumsfeld is a prime example as is the scandal-ubiquitous Harriet Miers.

I read that they are already trying to find a replacement from a very thin field of volunteers.

This lack of prospects for the job might, indeed, be just what Alberto needs to save his sorry ass.

IT IS EASIER TO APOLOGIZE THAN TO ASK PERMISSION (SOMETIMES)

F.B.I. Head Admits Mistakes in Use of Security Act

These assholes are rampant.

Incompetence mixed with evil intent.

Gonzo came in on this too with the usual smarm on his face.

He grins through everything.

Gonzales. Gonzo.

LIARS

So they got Libby for being a liar.

They just happened to catch him at it.

They are all serial liars 24/7.

That is why they think nothing of it.

Bushie set it up for a pardon as he grieves for the family.

Horseshit.

PROSECUTORS PERSECUTION

This has been boiling on the blogs for a week or more.

A New Mystery to Prosecutors: Their Lost Jobs

There seems to be no end to the chicanery of the bushers.

The only thing that saves us from the effects of their manipulations is their absolutely consistent ineptitude at execution.

They are not only arrogant, they are bumblers!

This was recently pointed out most particularly about Dick Cheney.

He is, no doubt, an evil menace but he is also a poor manager.

When you run Halliburton you don't need to be skillful as it is all influence.

They are such undiluted bastards. It will take a decade to undo the damage.

Well, at least the first term of the new Democratic administration.

GREAT SCRIBBLING NEWS

The Illustrated Daily Scribble

Charles Pugsley Fincher.

This is the bar-none best political commentary sites that exists.

His Cheney is a classic.

Evidently, he is not daily but 'every so often'.

Whatever is great for me.
