The Dems have offered a compromise to DYHbya’s extravagent use of Air Force One. See Air Force 2 at http://www.storytimedolls.net/mmff.html

Off topic here, but I have to mention a Chgo. Tribune article Sunday and today. Halliburton and its subsidiaries are in the indentured slave business in Nepal. Brokers act like the Pied Piper to the young and poor Nepalese, and they end up in Iraq, many never to be heard from again.

Of Course Bush is for individuals practicing conservation!

That means there’s more for them to use.

Public policy, not rhetoric, is the answer.

#20 AndrewW,

What is it about all – the censors on those blogs???

Anyone and everyone post on sites like this one.

But, the “conservatives” can’t tolerate reading anything which does fit the white bread, faux Bible thumping, Rupert Murdock’s FOX, Dick Cheney’s Halliburton, Abramoff’s… well, everything he has his claws into, plan for world domination.

It says a lot about the psycho social condition of this right wing movement.

For those interested in wading knee deep in troll excrement… RedState has a topic on this in which they blame the high cost of energy on… ENVIRONMENTALISTS!!!

You know, they have a point… If only we would just let the oil companies do anything and everything to get us Oil and Nuke-you-ler and Coal power then we’d all be fine.

This argument is patently false and disengenuine but I can’t rebut it over there because the censors will just delete it. Anybody care to discuss it here?

Blah, blah, blah… Bush flies to the region, AGAIN…
Then, he does the photo op thing… He says things about “biggest reconstruction” ever. He asks for individual tax payers to reach into their pockets and “send money”.

He takes responsibility for failures “as much as the federal government was responsible.” Of course, he doesn’t believe any of this is a federal issue. I.e. “not my fault.”

Then, after promising billions and billions of dollars which don’t exist, he goes back on vacation, or retreat, or break or whatever and the reconstruction projects idle, the money that never was never gets there. And, Bush “moves on with (his) life”.

Bush’s comments about unnecessary travel were only intended to mollify critics… do we really think Bush has done a 180 away from his “unchecked consumption is part of the American way of life” viewpoint?

Sorry all, I was off point last post. I think we should all conserve to the point there is a glut on the market like we did in the 70’s. Not because the nut job say’s to but to prove a point and cut the profits to the oil barrons. I have been doing this personaly for over a year, cause I can. Know lot’s that work are not able to but massive car pooling and limiting extra driving to the store etc; can be done. Stay home, rent movies, have home picnics and stop being massive consumers will stop them in their tracks. If we stop the buying trends and start boycotting we will accomplish a lot. Pay cash or don’t buy…Blessings

Dear me, Poor Randy is indeed full of the Repub’s propaganda. He must be fresh out of the right wing camp of delusion. Oh Well! Welcome Randy, we will read all your junk and responde when we choose, don’t count on any convert’s though. You’r in the wrong camp for that. By the way Randy, can you tell us all the good things Bush has done for you and our country, anything that didn’t take a life or jeperdize the welfare of the human race will do……Blessings

Dubya says “Photo-ops, Schmoto-ops”
Bushie needs to get out there and look like he knows something. Forget that he is a hypocrite. Forget that he was on another lengthy vacation that he just couldn’t break away from when the disaster struck. Forget that he appoints incompetent cronies to protect the populace.

The problem with the “why no investigation” argument is that the house and senate are run by repugnicants who refuse to investigate all kinds of things like the downing street memo for example!

The amount of fuel used for each one of these photo-op trips is probably sufficient to evacuate everyone from both recent hurricanes.

These trolls are defending criminals – it’s GREAT. I never thougt I would welcome them with such open arms. I love that they have come to this. It is truly shiftless.

Ah well, they can always live in the prosperous past of Clinton. HA! Or, just maybe, it was Chappaquidick, yeah, that’s the ticket, Chappaquidick. HA!

They should probably start agreeing with us about Diebold. Because if it wasn’t rigged by Diebold it was indeed rigged by Noe, Delay, etc. They are so stupid, it is absolutely fabulous.

AND, if not Diebold, repubs just voted for crime. Either way, it’s a swim upstream. HA again!

Wisedup,

Get a clue – diebold did not affect the election. If there was any tampering in the last election, why has there been no investigation? The reason, there was no tampering. If there is one thing democrats are good for, is bringing on investigations. I have faith that if there was any wrong doing, we would have heard about it now.

Diebold out, real votes in, BUSHIE OUT! 2006, a warning shot to the dictators, our only hope if we can’t get congress to impeach him.
