Ha! Take that Lieberman! Go sit in the corner and droop or something…
January 20th, 2007 at 4:42 pmThanks but No, thanks. DUHbya wouldn’t pay any attention to any group anyway. Witness the Iraq working group and the 9/11 Commission. The only response is Impeachment.
January 20th, 2007 at 4:49 pmAnd this would be preferred over already existing groups because…? As Clyde says above, Bush has already shown his complete disdain for any group, study or organization that does not fully support his dictatorship. (And Lieberman should be an embarrassment to every Connecticut Democrat.)
January 20th, 2007 at 4:54 pmBush must resign, someone tell him — impeachment is on the horizon and after impeachment, he will suffer the humiliation of being removed from office.
DUHbya wouldn’t pay any attention to any group anyway
Except the White House Iraq Group?
January 20th, 2007 at 4:55 pmThese “ad hoc” groups and quasi committees are just another game of mental masturbation! Impeach the SOB and get it over with! It’s clear that he’s asking to be impeached and is goading everyone to “just try it” with every passing remark and every action daily.
Go to grass (as my father used to say) Lieberman and Bush – of course, I’d change a word here and there except that the term “go to hell” no longer applies because it’s clear that both Bush and Lieberman are living in their own personal, nightmare called Hell right now.
January 20th, 2007 at 5:03 pmBush must resign for psychiatric reasons or be impeached. That’s all that’s left.
January 20th, 2007 at 5:04 pmBush and his BJ boy Lieberman can sit in the darkened Whitehouse and give each other reach arounds while listening to Ted Nugent.
Impeach the Chimp, recall Droopy Joe, jail Gonzales and exile Deadeye Dick Cheney.

January 20th, 2007 at 5:04 pm#7 Is that why Joe’s mouth looks like that? Too funny! I was wondering….
January 20th, 2007 at 5:06 pmAnd Max said No or Ill eat you up
So Max was sent to bed without any dinner
TInside maxes room the walls grew vines and the ceiling became the world around him
And off max sailed into the Night and then the Day
NO said max
January 20th, 2007 at 5:18 pm“Bush on the Couch” by Justin A. Frank, M.D. pretty much sums up the behavior pattern – textook sociopathy, according to Dr. Frank.
January 20th, 2007 at 5:26 pmThis is a MUST READ for anyone desiring to understand the mind of madness.
Dear secretary could you bin this letter along with the others from Pelosi
If that woman writes again tell her Im out
January 20th, 2007 at 5:46 pm#10 – Justin Frank has posted on Huffington Post several times. Just do a search with his name, and they’ll all come up. Very interesting reading.
January 20th, 2007 at 5:48 pmwell 3 weeks in power and no end to the war – useless
January 20th, 2007 at 5:52 pm3 weeks in power is not going to fix 6 years of mistakes in a flash. Many of us know that. It will take longer but we know that repugs don’t live in reality and that is why they cannot see that.
January 20th, 2007 at 5:57 pmI like it when Reid & Pelosi say no. :)
I can just picture GWB stamping his foot and having a tantrum.
January 20th, 2007 at 6:02 pmBUSH:
Ya see, I gotta have a new bi-partisan study group, ’cause the old bi-partisan study group didn’t agree with my plans to keep this War goin’.
So I gotta have a bi-partisan group of those who agree with me, like Liebarman and McCain. They’ll make an excellent study group ’cause they’re already picked to suckceed Dick and me. This way I kin keep telling the peeple that I listen to members of Congress…from both sides. A Republican and a Independant/Demmycrat who got elected with Republican support. oops…did I just say that? damn…that was supposed to be an inside voice…not an outside voice.
Rove…did you say this was gonna be a bi-partisan group..or a bi-sexual one….I keep gettin’ those two mixed up.
Where’s Barney?
January 20th, 2007 at 6:02 pmAnother 5 US troops killed today on top of the 13 killed in the chopper crash.
The troop numbers are surging no doubt.

January 20th, 2007 at 6:03 pmWhere’s Barney?

Where are the “heh heh’s?”
January 20th, 2007 at 6:09 pm“Acting on the good advice of Senator Joe Lieberman”
LOL!!!
January 20th, 2007 at 6:10 pmComment by General Max — January 20, 2007 @ 5:52 pm
Yeah. Damn, you’d think they’d have had Bush, Cheney, et. al. impeached, convicted and hung for international war crimes by now. Hey, do you think Cheney’s head would pop off like Saddam’s half-brother’s?
Three weeks…and still no President Pelosi.
Three weeks, and we still have to deal with global warming.
Three weeks, and we’re still in Iraq.
Three weeks, and still no draft.
Three weeks, and the rich are still enjoying Bush’s tax cuts.
Three weeks, and No Child Left Behind is still trashing public education.
Three weeks, and still no Universal Health Care.
Three weeks, and the Military Commissions Act still hasn’t been repealed.
Yes, there is still a great deal for the 110th Congress to work on. Nice to know they’re now working 4-5 days/week instead of only a couple.
January 20th, 2007 at 6:10 pm18 – heh, heh. sorry….I fergot to take my happy pills this morning. Rush let me have some of his awhile back…damn they’re good!
Hey, Rove…where’d you hide them this time?….
Nope. They’re not under the desk…heh. heh.
Barney…help daddy find his happy pills….
January 20th, 2007 at 6:14 pm#10 I’m currently reading “Bush on the Couch” and it’s a mandatory read and scary. It is interesting that the false bravado of this clown president now presents more realistically as incomprehension of reality. He clearly does not understand that 70% of Americans do not believe anything he says, yet he keeps acting out his “commander in chief” script as if his freakin’ title gives him more brains and makes the rest of us dumber.
January 20th, 2007 at 6:17 pmNope. They’re not under the desk…heh. heh.
Barney…help daddy find his happy pills….

That’s more like it! :-D
January 20th, 2007 at 6:18 pmSomehow, this seems a fitting tribute to Bush:
I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major General
Lyrics
[Pirates of Penzance]
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
I’ve information vegetable, animal, and mineral
I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical
From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical
I’m very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical
I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical
About binomial theorem I’m teeming with a lot o’ news
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotepotenuse
I’m very good at integral and differential calculus
I know the scientific names of beings animalculous
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
He is the very model of a modern Major-General
I know our mythic history, King Arthur’s and Sir Caradoc’s
I answer hard acrostics, I’ve a pretty taste for paradox
I quote in elegiacs all the crimes of Heliogabalus
In conics I can floor peculiarities parabolous
I can tell undoubted Raphaels from Gerard Dows and Zoffanies
I know the croaking chorus from the Frogs of Aristophanes
Then I can hum a fugue of which I’ve heard the music’s din afore
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore
And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinapinafore
Then I can write a washing bill in Babylonic cuneiform
And tell you ev’ry detail of Caractacus’s uniform
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
He is the very model of a modern Major-General
In fact, when I know what is meant by “mamelon” and “ravelin”
When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle from a javelin
When such affairs as sorties and surprises I’m more wary at
And when I know precisely what is meant by “commissariat”
When I have learnt what progress has been made in modern gunnery
When I know more of tactics than a novice in a nunnery
In short, when I’ve a smattering of elemental strategy
You’ll say a better Major-General had never sat a gee
You’ll say a better Major-General had never sat a gee
You’ll say a better Major-General had never sat a gee
You’ll say a better Major-General had never sat a sat a gee
For my military knowledge, though I’m plucky and adventury
Has only been brought down to the beginning of the [19th] century
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
January 20th, 2007 at 6:23 pmHe is the very model of a modern Major-General
A relationship that acknowledges the different responsibilities reserved in the Constitution for the executive and legislative branches of our government would facilitate greatly doing the work the American people elected us to do.
Sad (alright, appalling and pathetic) that they have to point this out… but excellent that they did. It was long over due.
The brat got spanked!
January 20th, 2007 at 6:40 pmWord of the day:
Impeachment
January 20th, 2007 at 7:44 pmSuzy, how ’bout:
Impeachiness
January 20th, 2007 at 7:58 pmImpeachiness
Comment by Briseadh na Faire — January 20, 2007 @ 7:58 pm
Someone found his happy pills!!!
January 20th, 2007 at 8:19 pm#12 Thanks, Zooey! I can only imagine what Justin Frank must be thinking about the damage this guy has done and what his psychiatric condition is.
January 20th, 2007 at 8:30 pmIt’s distilling done to Bush’s self-perpetuating prophesy – that only Barney and Laura will be at his side when all is said and done. Looks like it’s happening sooner than later!
January 20th, 2007 at 8:31 pm#22 Bush is “role playing” Commander In chief, that’s clear now to just about everyone. When he grins from ear to ear consistently lying about the dying in Iraq (sociopathy)….when his version of reality is seriously in conflict with factual date (polls and public opinion)….yes, this book is a “must read” but may bring about severe nightmares to anyone who does and realizes precisely what we have with the trigger finger on the future on this country.
January 20th, 2007 at 8:34 pmAnd to all the great posts above, yes, it’s only been 3 weeks and so much has already been established, begun, and in the planning phases. However, I am not as optimistic as many of you in that I believe that there is a “point of no return” in all things and 6 destructive years of this regime may, in fact, take 6 decades to undo. Sad, but perhaps true.
If it were only that easy to imagine that the recovery time would be the same as the destruction time! Unfortunately, when it comes to reversal of destruction, time taken to rebuild is an exponent of the actual physical time of destruction. Another sad but realistic fact.
In terms of world view and world opinion of the United States, suffice it to say that what has taken us two hundred years to accrue has been dissolved in 6 short years and probably will never be re-established….ever. That’s another sad truth.
But on a brighter note….impeachment will be a beginning to and end to this madness. Everyone needs to press congress to move toward impeachment of the entire Bush regime.
January 20th, 2007 at 8:39 pmYes!
January 20th, 2007 at 8:53 pmSomeday Joe Lieberman may be able to understand that Dubya Bush and Shooter Cheney are terrorizing the people of the USA and Iraq. This fascist regime must be over thrown. Dubya and Cheney and the former GOP majority were the worst thing to ever happen to this great nation and it was very detrimental to the world.
Impeach the Chimp.
January 20th, 2007 at 9:14 pm#29 – Anytime, veritas.
January 20th, 2007 at 11:03 pmBut… but… they’re undermining non-existent Presidential credibility at Iraq’s peril!
I love Frank Rich. We’ve been saying for a while now that the administration’s lying like it’s 2003 all over again but nobody can quite summarize it like Rich in “Lying Like It’s 2003.”
All this plus a surprise cameo by Saddam Hussein!
January 20th, 2007 at 11:08 pmFlash – W and Dick
January 21st, 2007 at 12:52 amWe already got one.
How the Fack didn’t you know that already?
Oh, right. You don’t listen, nor pay attention to anything but your own hollow rhetoric.
Right.
There is an imposter troll on the threads mimicing me, and others too, so be aware that some comments could be weird on here. The troll has been reported to Judd.
January 21st, 2007 at 12:52 amExcerpts from “Bush On The Couch” by Justin A. Frank, M.D. which further make the case for Bush’s psychopathology:
“- How can someone so friendly and playful be the same person who cuts funds from government programs aiding the poor and the hungry?
-How is it that our deeply religious president feels free to bomb Iraq – and then celebrate the results with open expressions of joy?
-How can a president send american soldiers into combat under false pretense and then proceed to joke about the deception, finding humor in the absence of weapons of Mass Destruction under his Oval Office Desk?
-How can someone promise to protect the environment on the one hand and allow increased arsenic in the public water supply on the other? And why does he feel he can call his plan to lift logging restrictions in national forests a “Healthy” Forest Initiative?
-If the president’s interpersonal skills are strong enough to earn him the reputation of being a “people person”, why was he so unwilling and even unable to talk to world leaders, such as Jacques Chirac or Gerhard Schroeder, who disagreed with him?
-How can the president sound so confused and yet act so decisively? And given the regularity with which he confuses fact with fantasy, how can he justify decisions based largely on his own personal suspicions with such unwavering certainty?”
This book by Justin A Frank, M.D. is a ‘MUST READ’ for anyone questioning their own logic or sanity when they fail to comprehend just what they are experiencing, witnessing, and recognizing.
It’s clear to many that Bush now needs serious help for his disorder. It’s too bad that the rest of the world realized it well before we americans did. In fact, it’s the very brainwashing about ourselves and how great we are that disallows the people the necessary insight to admit that we’ve made a serious mistake in the election (stolen?) of this man and continue to make the mistake of enabling someone so in need of psychiatric intervention. Yes, we’re all realizing it en masse now – unfortunately, we’ve lost 3,000 lives of american soldiers who believed in their mission; albeit it based on lies and deceptions and the countless (36,000) lives of innocent Iraqis whose country we’ve effectively and efficiently destroyed because of one man’s sickness.
It’s very say to believe but time for americans to get out of the “bush fantasy” with him and pronounce our own mental acumen and ability by “righting this horrendous wrong” and pressing for his immediate impeachment and/or medical leave from office. It’s his choice and I’d say by his actions, he’s clearly goading the american people (like the schoolyard bully) into impeachment….with each passing day, I can hear it under his breath as he smiles & smirks….and it goes like this: “na na na na na na….catch me if you can!”.
Time for americans to begin connecting the dots about this sock puppet president – who is really pulling his strings, when it all began (when pappy was head of CIA?), the key players who were integral to Pappy’s administration, the Neocon Think Tank that produced this coup on the american democracy……and the tool they used to effectively wrap it up was the Patriot Act….yeparoo!
How did they con us into trading our freedom for the fantasy of safety while leaving our borders pourous to the thousands of illegals entering each day?? You got it: aha! 9/11!!
Until we get to the truth of the 9/11 inconsistencies, we will not be able to totally comprehend nor connect the dots to where we’ve gone and how we got there…..Do your homework people!
The life of this democracy depends upon it!
January 21st, 2007 at 9:05 amIn a time of universal deceit,
telling the truth becomes a
revolutionary act.

A little aside: partly in reference to the time-line suggested by dot-connecting #39-
January 22nd, 2007 at 7:42 amOn the morning of 9/11 when the two jets slammed into the two Trade Center towers, George H.W. Bush was having breakfast with Osama Bin Laden’s brother. This is one reason that the Bin Laden family was hurried out of the states, while other aircraft was grounded. Records verify this, although it is a little difficult to get any official to adequately address the matter. No one really wants to talk about this touchy subject.
