    Let’s hope not.


  2. Dr. Matt says:

    Insert Clinton reference (it will only be a matter of time).


  3. Jake says:

    LOL – now TP is saying Ambassadorships can’t be based on political reasons?! You guys are funny!


  4. oldtree says:

    to the vatican? mickey mouse meets inquisition?


  5. linda says:

    wouldn’t it be sweeeeeet if belgium denied his appointment due to his noxious involvement in past elections..


  6. Dr. Matt says:

    Jake, your paranoia is unmasked.


  7. Jake says:

    How so, Dr. Matt? All we need is Condi CAUGHT in a lie about “Ambassadors are not appointed based on political reasons” and TP will have a field day.

    A total lack of reading comprehension must be a requirement for Trolldom.

    “You guys are now saying . . . ? Har har har.” No, idiot.


  9. Dr. Matt says:

    Where does TP say: “Ambassadorships can’t be based on political reasons”??? Yes, you are a paranoid. You are hearing voices and reading things that do not exist. That’s for proving my point, dolt.


  10. Dr. Matt says:

    Jake, you forgot to mention Clinton. Would you, please, princess?


  11. Pete Bogs says:

    probably… it’s his reward for helping out Bush’s ‘04 campaign…


  12. Jake says:

    Anyone (NOT on the “Ignore List” for personal attacks) else?


  13. dlet says:

    If the Ambassador can be appointed by the President of the US for political reasons then Senate has every right to reject him for political reasons.


  14. And You Thought REAGAN Was Stupid says:

    Why would anyone want a supporter of DOCUMENTED LIARS to represent the United States overseas? My morality says we should have Ambassadors who are known to be truthful and who support people of integrity.

    Maybe Belgium needs a good ‘Swift Boat’ kick in the ass for not totally supporting the Bushco agenda in Iraq! Go gettum, Foxie! U da Man!

    Now we have to send our Scumbags to foreign countries to prove how f@cked up we are here in the US of A.

    Then there really is no need to send anyone…they all know how frakked we are here.

    How much longer till 2008?


  17. Jake Supports Cronyism says:

    Jake, it’s pure cronyism at best. People should be placed in office according to their abilities, but of course I wouldn’t expect you to understand that seeing as how you likely voted for Bush the Lesser XVI.

    At the rate we are going, there may be more of the BushCo Boyz & Girlz indicted then there are left in office! At least we can hope!!!

    Dubya…………… the second coming of Tricky Dick!!

    All you Repug 29%er Trolls must be SOOO PROUD!

    Confucious say: Those who cannot remember the past are doomed to…. have Chimpy as a prez.

    Yeah Jake, I think most people would like to see a move away from all this rampant cronyism and a move back toward a meritocracy where mutual respect is the lingua franca of political discourse. There was a time when it meant something to refer to one of our dignitaries as the Honorable Ambassador from America but that all went south with the rise of Gingrich and Delay, and John Bolton most of all. Given that, I suggest you stuff a sock in that nasty piehole you got while we work to restore a bit of honor, respect and accountability to this system.

    I see this Fox circling the bowl at this point. Let’s hope I’m right.


  21. Jake says:

    I’m wearing lacy undies.


  22. upside00 says:

    #21 WHOOAAAAAA Jake…… TMI

    Whew!!!
