Left in the dark.

Left in the dark.

Congressional and administration officials have admitted that “U.S. President George W. Bush and his White House were kept in the dark about the Department of Homeland Security’s grant allocations, even though they included controversial cuts to New York City and Washington, until after the decisions were made.”

    Have they ever NOT been in the dark?

    Good to know it’s not just every American citizen who’s being kept in the dark. My question is, who really knows what’s going on? I suspect nobody.

    Bull—-. I’m tired of the good cop bad cop routine the Bush crime family pulls on us regularly. Bush was quoted as being glad that “Brownie” was taking the heat for Katrina. They have quite a twisted little maze of diversion options for who takes what blame for the lastest outrage and when. It is time for the American people to awaken and take these bastards down.

    They knew nothing!

    yeah, Bush, the mushroom president


  7. Spudge_Boy says:

    Why not, Bush keeps all of us in the dark.

    Ron Suskind, from the exerpts I have read on the net, says that keeping the president uninformed allows him to claim plausible denial.

    Well that can go only so far before it returns to bite you in the ass. He knows nothing of what is going on in his own administration? All he is good for is strutting around the country raising millions for the party and traipsing over to Europe with his wrinkled, robotic, vacant and ill dressed first lady of war, on OUR money?

    Yup, plausible denial, while thousands are being killed–They both are smiling like little wind up dolls–and the killing goes on–but, being uninformed, they do not know that eh?

    Be careful, there is now expected to be a huge amount of “disinformation” to allow everyone who is part of the “criminal Element” within our Federal Government to Cover Their Sweet Ass! What’s important to realize is that they are all involved and right now it looks like they are trying to limit damages!


  10. For Truth says:

    Many Iraqis are still “in the dark” too, and its really hot without A/C.

    How could one man possibly know everything that is going on in the Federal Gubbermint? That’s why you appoint competent people to handle all the various jobs.

    “I know nuttink!”
    “I am just a dumkopf!”


  12. Theresa says:

    Perhaps Bush should remove the cod piece from his little, itty bitty right eyed wonder worm that’s also covering his ears that don’t want to hear and start to look and listen with the eyes and ears he was born with. It don’t take much effort to hear the chatter from the disenfranchised on the east coast… Plausible deniability my ass. He’s completely incompetent.


  13. Navy Vet says:

    Bush is always waving to me on TV, it must be me because I don’t see anybody else so I always wave back with a closed fist with one fingare extended.


  14. Zookeeper says:

    Navy Vet,

    Heh. Me, too.
