I guess James Dobson knows what he’s talking about…

Was there really any question how Harriet would
vote on this issue?
I think FUBAR Bush does not trust actual constitutional
thinkers as they can’t be trusted to tow the party line.
Here he tries to appoint someone who does not seem
to have the constitutional legal mind to think for
herself. Thus, FUBAR Bush can control her.
afterthought – my brain just doesn’t want to work today…please explain “FUBAR” …i’ll probably be emabarrassed that i didn’t already know that…thanks…

It seems to have military origin. Check Wiki if you
want more detail.
I like it because of the sonic similarity to
“bandar bush”, the honorary Saudi member of
the Bush family.
thanks! that is a new one for me…one i remember and use fondly is SNAFU – Situation Normal, All F___ed Up…also appropo…
October 18th, 2005 at 3:44 pmVery similar origin with SNAFU.
October 18th, 2005 at 3:46 pmFUBAR works better with Bush, I think.
With the confirmation of Miers and her views on abortion, I for one believe we are now at the same dangerous position in this country that the country was at some 150 years ago when Abraham Lincoln was elected president considering his already known views on another rubicon issue..slavery, only now I think we liberals are in the same position the South was then. We all know the drastic measures the South and her sympathizers felt obliged to take over the five year period following Lincoln’s election!…..
