The blame the American public for Bush’s fu*k ups talking point will do nothing but cause Americans to hate the right wing fringe even more.
The other one that Americans are getting tired of is: “It was not as much a Democratic win as it was a Republican loss.” BullshEt, we out voted their dumb asses. No republican switched votes. There were just more of us. The people knew it was imperative to get the vote out, so we did.
How dare we Americans did not goose step in support of our Dear Leader. How could we be so ungrateful for the greatness of his vision. We are not worthy of a shining knight like George W. Bush.
You Republicans are disgusting. Your stupidity is without boundaries. You useless selfserving scum made this great country the most hated in the world. It comes at no surprise that you morons did get nothing together in the last 6 years and less surprising is the fact that all you can do is blaming it on somebody else. Always blaming it on somebody else. Hell is too nice of a place for you to go.
Go extinct and leave the honest America alone once and for all.
David Hamilton: he’s not afraid to write my name unlike the liberal cowards, but he’s more than happy to post ad hominem attacks. He’s intellectually weak.
The arrogance and audacity of those who blame the American people is astonishing.
Don’t blame the moron in chief who led us into this world wide mess through lies, distortions and illegal moves; no, he is the boy-king to be worshipped. He is the born-again one who listens to his own higher power. (They forget that someone who claims to hear the voice of god in his ears is insane. )
No, don’t blame the administration or the neocons who propagated the lies and distortions, and don’t blame the pundits and the papers who believed the lies without question. Don’t blame them – nope – blame the American public for being unable and unwilling to follow Bush any further – finally!
The American public is to be blamed for electing the most incompetent and dangerous fool America has ever seen, yes, but they were listening to those pundits, reading those papers, and believing that their president wouldn’t deceive them.
Never again.
And the loyal propagandists for George Bush should be condemned along with him.
Well, Mr. Hamilton, thank you for your very insightful post.
On topic,
I said it before: This administration’s many, many mistakes are invariably someone else’s fault. It is the most pathetic “who, me?” administration I have ever seen.
Now that conservatives are running out of people to blame (after blaming Kerry, Clinton, Democrats, liberals, etc.) they are simply throwing accusations to the wind hoping they fall on someone else’s shoulders.
The Iraq debacle? It’s the American people’s fault, of course.

that reminds me of when I was a child. My parents gave me a bicycle for my birthday and about a week later I fell off of it, skinned my knees and got a fat lip. When I came inside crying and told them it was their fault for giving me the bike they looked at me and couldn’t stop themselves from laughing.
#1, Troll Turd alret!
Bush & Co. are running out of excuses & people to hang the blame on.
Get ready for 2 years of ‘it wasn’t me, it was them’ crap.
How ’bout that Congress? The Neosluts promise to do less in Dec. than any other month.
Heckuva job, Roberts, Frist, Spector, Brownback, Hatch et al.
Must be Clinton’s fault.
Kondracke and whatever freak posted comment #1 illustrate perfectly the pathological aversion to responsibility held by the pathetic Bush-worshipping crowd.
Yeah we liberals sure are cowards for hiding behind anonymity. Because no right wingers would ever consider publishing personal information online without permission. And none of their right wing hooligan troglodyte friends would ever conceive of making death threats or spamming the targeted individual. Nah. That’d never happen.
#16 is right — the word for it is “Dolchstosslegende” or “the stab-in-the-back” excuse. Hitler used it to explain Germany’s defeat in World War I. Now it is becoming a conservative talking point.
Sounds familiar: Hitler blamed the reversal of his war on the German people, whom he condemned for being too weak to live out his vision for them and the world.
#30 …Hitler accusing his Volk of weakness from Berlin Bunker…
That was my second reaction.
The first was “America is now considered ‘weak’? When will it be considered ’strong’ then?”
Happily, commentators do not need to reinvent the wheel to make speeches! Comrades, let’s hear some uplifiting hotness from olden times:
Will is the force inside you that commands. You may hesitate from weariness, anxiety, weakness. Will lifts you over every barrier and orders you to do what your feelings and understanding tell you to do. A man without will is like a machine without power. It is useless. But “where there is a will, there is a way,” and where a will orders, it is obeyed, whether a person follows his own will or men follow the will of a leader.
Yeah, it’s a real damn shame the American people didn’t realize you can’t impose democracy at gunpoint. Too bad they were so shallow that reading a book about how great freedom is made them think they should march freedom up the entire world’s arse.
Too damn bad.
Maybe Dec 6th would be a good date? I am not alone with my worries. Corner a snake and see what will happen. (Not that I want to insult snakes by comparing them to repiglicans)
Wait! If there will be any blasphemy conducted by the bushers and dickers it must be the ‘Fire of the Houses of Parliaments’, right? Because those will be a nuisance from January on in the first place. We have the “Fire Drecree” aka Patriot Act already.
I think the purpose of the war for many hardcore neo-cons is the war. That no one is able to figure out what the war is accomplishing is irrelevant. People are suppose to be war lovers like the neo-cons. I think the worst eventuality for the neo-cons is that Iraq just becomes another Middle Eastern state, sells oil, and is a country the US has very limited influence over. At this point in time this is the best possible outcome but from the viewpoint of the neo-cons the worst possible outcome. The hundreds of billions of dollars spent and lives lost were spent essentially for zilch. Much better for the 101st Fighting Keyboardists is a general World War II conflagration, where the US can be put on a total war footing, civil liberties can be abridged, punditry jobs are secured for at least another decade and large parts of the Middle East are bombed back to the stone age. Of course, with this the reputation of the US sinks to the bottom of the sea but the fascistic neo-con program has some appeal as the US has been backed up against a wall. The goal of the neo-cons now is a much larger disaster than the already humongous disaster that the neo-cons have already lead the US in to. For the neo-cons what to do is all about what is best for the neo-cons rather than what is best for the US.
Nico, you are an intellectually dishonest moron who doesn’t care about the truth.

Well, excuuuuuuse me.

December 1st, 2006 at 5:12 pmalso, i thought the latest meme was to blame the iraqis…
they just didn’t want demcracy badly enough…
either way – just another example of not accepting the blame…
December 1st, 2006 at 5:13 pm#40 – Katy – Americans, Iraqis, moonmonkeys, anybody but thems that are actually to blame for the shatstorm that is Iraq.
December 1st, 2006 at 5:27 pmClearly, its cause US companies are saying “happy holidays” in stead of “Merry Christmas.” Don’t they support the troops?
December 1st, 2006 at 5:36 pmThey’re setting the stage with this meme for another “terrorist” attack.
Will the Amurkkan sheeple finally get that they are the “terrorists”?
This time, Cheney is desperate enough to nuke an Amurkkan town or city.
I hope to hell I am wrong
