    Christmas already?

    Now only the entire administration to go! Hey great week!

    And when do Rove and Bolton go to jail over Plamegate?

    Come on investigators, put these crooks behind bars where they clearly belong. The gangsta neocons have looted america for way too long!

    I hope the SEC checks the *video* of Frist’s many lies about this issue.


  5. Jesus Christ God of WAR says:

    Things are beginning to look better by the moment. DeLay – gone. Abramoff – gone. Ralph Reed – under investigation. Frist – under investigation. KKKarl Rove – under investigation. Dick Cheney – in his bunker, but perhaps under investigation?

    Don’t you just love Conservative Christian values playing games in US politics? Not for much longer! :-)

    It’s been a bad day for the Banana Republicans. First, House Majority Leader Tom Delay was indicted. Then, the SEC announced it is launching a formal investigation into Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist’s insider trading scandal.

    For today at least, God is in His Heaven and all is right with the world.

    For the details, see:

    “Delay Indicted. Frist Investigated. God in His Heaven.”

    Now everyone repeat after me: It’s those darn partisan Democrats!

    #7 Bahahaha. The setup is working!

    Whoop-de-doo!
    Delay indictment, Frist investigation — if Rove gets indicted — we will have a “trifecta” to use Bush’s phrase.


  10. Marie says:

    Did you all hear that David Drier will probably fill Delay’s slot temporarily?
    David Drier is like one of those little dogs that yap constantly and nip at your ankles. He is a pompous and obnoxious person (who will likely present a challenge to the religious right in defending him), but being pompous and obnoxious is prerequisite for being Republican these days.


  11. AvengingAngel says:

    Been a tough day for Delay, Frist, Brown and the Banana Republicans.

    If It’s Wednesday, There Must Be Linkage

    hurricanes, indictments, investigations. Whew! What a day. Grab your scorecards and let’s get to blogging.


  14. Jesus Christ God of WAR says:

    I can’t claim this to be mine, but its good enough to repeat here:

    Maybe FEMA can save DeLay.

    And if FEMA can save DeLay, maybe it can save Frist too! :-)


  15. Pablo in Mexico says:

    Bush said, thru McClellan that he still has the full trust and confidence in Tom Delay.

    Of course. Why wouldnt he, both are crooks.

    Speaking of Rain,

    On the way to slandering Gov. Blanco, the GOP run Red Cross is sitting their fat stupid asses on $1 Billion dollars while being utterly incompetent at virtually everything they touch! Clearly they’ve gone to the FEMA school of hiring for their management of late – could explain why all of their key management is republican. It’s all about the politics – screw the people. When did the Red Cross become such partisan fvckheads!

    That would be when that lady ran off with lots of cash after 9/11. Can’t remember her name……Anybody want to add?….Blessings
