Forget Brownie.

Forget Brownie.»

The newest crony on the block is Ellen Sauerbrey, President Bush’s new choice for “the office at the State Department that coordinates the delivery of life-sustaining emergency aid to refugees.” Sauerbrey’s experience with major crises requiring international relief? Zero.

    What do you know. MORE help with strings attached. (or rather, a COATHANGER attached).


  2. Brian Says:

    Is it me? or is the Times overcompensating for Miller?


  3. Cactus Says:

    They just can’t be this stupid. There has to be a plan here. With the Administration under heavy fire for appointing cronys to every post possible why appoint more cronys?

    It just doens’t add up.


  4. Brian Says:

    Good point, Cactus. I think maybe BushCo has the plague.


  5. Jamison Says:

    Honestly, they’ve gotten away with just about everything they’ve tried in the last 5 years, they keep making the same mistakes because they think they just have to throw a 9/11 reference into a speech and we will all go shrieking to our corners and they will get away with it again.

    They

    Are

    Insane


  7. Mike N. Says:

    THEY are insane? How about the morons that put these fascists in office? And I am not only talking about Repulicans here, Democrats are just as guilty. Look in the mirror.


  8. Rotwang Says:

    And don’t forget General Myers’ niece, jULIE, whose been nominated to assume a high-level DHS customs/immigration post for which even she admits she’ll need on-the-job training.

    BushWorld. Where the fun NEVER stops.

    Can’t wait to hear Georgie’s pep-talk to his newest crony after seeing the utter devastation in Pakistan in the earthquake’s aftermath: “Sauer-krautie, you’re doing a HECKUVA job…”

    Just remember — it’s a lot easier to appoint cronies than it is to actually THINK about what you’re doing. And with the attention of the alleged brain behind the outfit, King Rove, being diverted by thoughts of what color to paint his cell in Leavenworth, Georgie must be having to do lots of his own thinking for himself. Result: more cronies.


  10. Zookeeper Says:

    She’s PERFECT for the job! Wash your hands and stay healthy, be cause we are so f*cked…


  11. Corinne Says:

    In 1994 and 1998, Sauerbrey was the Republican nominee for Governor of Maryland. Her qualifications for the job include a stint as chairperson of Maryland for Bush Campaign.


  12. Sharon Cox Says:

    buckfush, please stop. We are weary of your sales pitch on every thread…It is now to the point of skimming over every one of your post’s. Your now considered a troll to me. Give us all a break and tone down…..Enough…


  13. Jon Says:

    Sounds like Sauerbrey would be an excellent addition to:

    “The Banana Republicans.


  14. Marie Says:

    He doesn’t learn from his errors - he is incorrigible. Brown, Myers, Simonson, Sauerbrey, and let us not omit Miers, are all people appointed to crucial positions in time of emergency because Bushie relies only on his cronies and political confidants. This has gone past simple cronyism, there is something pathological happening.

    Ellen SauerPussy is a womb Nazi for pedophile/playboy priests and GOP politicians who fear running out of fresh altar boys and trophy mistresses! She also has criminal Catholic Munchausen by Proxy Syndrome (MBPS) contempt for the medical health of vulnerable women and children. By denying reproductive choice, she’s imposing ruinous, smelly childbirth bladder and bowel tears (fistulas), AIDS, and the sex trafficking of unwanted children to pedophiles like Neil Bush. No wonder W. wants her–to keep adulterous Neil supplied with fresh Thai child hookers!
