Last Supper with Jebsus.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:03 pmEven I thought there would be more around the table for the last supper. Will Gonzo turn out to be Judas?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:03 pmGonzales will land on his feet and be hired immediately into some far ultra right wing hate/propaganda group.
The GOP rewards its criminals and liars.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:04 pmI’ve never known a Latino with the name Rebecca before, interesting…
August 27th, 2007 at 5:04 pmThanks President Bush for keeping us safe from terrorist since 9/11.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:06 pmThat’s precious. Did he also give Fredo a final kiss?
While I’m thrilled that Gonzo is gone, I’m still afraid of where he may end up. I hope it isn’t on Fox News.
The Gonzales Factor
August 27th, 2007 at 5:07 pmWonder what the point of releasing this picture is. All those big smiles, like they know something we don’t know. Maybe Gonzo goes back into the White House as an advisor? That was the one thing missing from his speech announcement. Usually they say they are going back to Texas for whatever reason.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:08 pmMarkarster where is ace?
HeyoooOOoooooOoOOoooo!
August 27th, 2007 at 5:08 pmQuick, someone make a witty and insightful comment about their stupid smiles or goofy clothing.
Is that a dead Iraqi baby they are eating?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:09 pmThey’re all smiles looking forward to copious mounds of chicken-fired cow balls! Gonzo’s Mom set the table real nice, ‘cept she forgot the spoons. It’s hard to get good help, dontcha know.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:11 pmHey Bush, Nice Pants!
What was served? Should have been a big platter of balogna!
August 27th, 2007 at 5:12 pmSomthing stinks in Crawford, and it ain’t the crawfish!
August 27th, 2007 at 5:12 pmHeyoooOOoooooOoOOoooo!

The sound of someone “urinating” on the thread.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:13 pmThanks President Bush for keeping us safe from terrorist since 9/11.

Too bad his was to busy to bother to be interested in the topic prior to. My home hasn’t been destroyed by a tornado either but I don’t thank the weatherman.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:14 pmNo doubt they were discussing how/when Bush would override his jail sentence.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:16 pmThankyou. Keep ‘em coming!
I do believe Laura is perilously close to having her elbows on the table, a definite dinner faux-paus. Obviously she is a dunce.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:16 pmBob, he’s done nothing at the ports. nothing. Keeping us safe at the cost of the rest of the world where terrorist attacks have dramatically risen since 9/11. Thanks Bush for isolating us.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:17 pmI believe the main dish was crow pie.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:17 pmThanks President Bush for keeping us safe from terrorist since 9/11.

Where is Osama bin Laden?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:17 pmI wonder if they served baloney for lunch?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:19 pmMy home hasn’t been destroyed by a tornado either but I don’t thank the weatherman.
I dont think the weather plots on how to smash your house when you least expect it, then again even mother nature hates liberals so I could be wrong.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:19 pmBecca has quite a rack! You dog, Gonzo!
August 27th, 2007 at 5:19 pmWhere is Osama bin Laden?
Busy campaigning with Obama.
Obama/Osama ‘08. The RhymeTyme ticket.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:21 pmLooks like water accompanied by a salad of baby arugala, shaved romano, and some sort of citrus. I am going to quess “blood” oranges. Oh and who picked out those god awful napkins and what’s with W’s extra coaster?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:21 pmthen again even mother nature hates liberals so I could be wrong.
Comment by LibTeenie — August 27, 2007 @ 5:19 pm
Yea? Then whats she doing in the midwest right now?
Building a waterpark?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:21 pmI’ve got a rock that keeps bears away. It works too. I haven’t seen a bear in years.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:21 pmBecca has quite a rack! You dog, Gonzo!
Mmmmm hmmmmm, quite.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:22 pmYea? Then whats she doing in the midwest right now?
Building a waterpark?
Trying to cull the liberal herd, I suppose.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:23 pmWhere is Judas?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:23 pmOh and who picked out those god awful napkins and what’s with W’s extra coaster?
Uhhhh, they all have the extra coaster, presumably for the wine.
Keep ‘em coming!
August 27th, 2007 at 5:25 pmGonzo held out for as long as could. Based on the happy faces, seems that they think it was also as long as he needed to.
I kind of like that table. I’d go with Rust napkins though, not Lime.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:25 pmGonzales’ resignation is a TOTAL, STINGING DEFEAT FOR DEMOCRATS because of the fact they lose their whipping boy and lightning rod for their non-issue criticism of attorney firings! Without such defamatory falsehood with which to assault a member of Bush’s administration, Demoncrats will look even more impotent and directionless to an American public that has already punished the underperformance of the Demoncratic Congress with the lowest approval ratings–ever. Demoncrats have to beat to death more strawmen pursuits like their phony charges of Bush mishandling the war, his NSA “spying program, and Bush’s apparent mishandling of Katrina. On 2nd thought, Demoncrats are too mentally ill and radically obsessed with the non-issue over attorney firings to let this die. Prominent psycho Dems on certain committees have already threatened to still beat to death this non-issue even after Gonzales’ depature. Look for the Dem Congress approval to be at ZERO soon.

I agree and I say let’s have many, many more similar defeats. If Cheney, Rice & Bush would resign that would really show those Dems. Who would they have to whip then eh? Eh? Go for it. Show them who’s boss.

I can’t find them. If the nightrider hadn’t started the problem Cundalini wouldn’t have lost it
August 27th, 2007 at 5:28 pmWait until the new earmark budget is announced, you might see the number for the Jackass congress hit negatives. Is that even possible? We will have to wait and see.
Heath Shuler, you should have stuck to coaching.

I think you got confused with your mom just trying to forget last night´s job.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:30 pmGonzo got a better lunch then the French President no hamburgers and hot dogs. Gonzo will slowly be pushed out of the world of the rich. He was used for his stupidity and did a great job for Bush. There’s always the family business for Gonzo can return to. To bad for Teresa Gonzales the career drug dealer sister of Gonzo. Now Teresa lost her free pass and might be charged with many many crimes she’s committed. It was good to have a brother who stopped Police from arresting the top drug dealer of our time. Hope she made alot of money selling the drugs for the past 6 years. I noticed the Media never talks about Gonzo’s sister per order of the White House. Ari has a lot to say now but he never remembered to tell the public about the career drug dealer Teresa Gonzales. Ari did remember to leak the CIA’s name.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:30 pm“what’s with W’s extra coaster?”
Thats where W’s double of Johhny Black on the rocks was prior to someone remembering that for the purposes of White house photographers, W gave up the sauce and found Jesus.
That explains the smiles too.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:32 pmGonzo’s got him some white meat.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:32 pmI can’t find them. If the nightrider hadn’t started the problem Cundalini wouldn’t have lost it
Look closer, save and enlarge or get yourself a loupe.
All Nightrider did was get himself vaporized, its the Toecutter who decided to make an issue of things. Poor Goose, he suffered greatly.

Nice try ,we still win,this was the goal of the hearings and we acheived it. Spin as you will. Oh, and current Congress approval ratings reflect the repeated efferts by GOP and Bush to block democratic bills. So the blames back on you.

Bonkers!
Now cut and run.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:35 pmHah! Look at Bush’s outfit! What a hillbilly!

Comment by Cundalini Wants His Hand Back — August 27, 2007 @ 5:32 pm
I quess I’ll have to take your word on that. The napkins are still putrid. On a different note was Bubba Zanetti gay? I really don’t care about anyone’s personal business but it seems such a crew would be more phobic.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:38 pmOldest trick in the book: Boss calls and invites you over for lunch or dinner and lets you woof down the last chicken wing before he slides the pink slip to you on the table. Gonzo should have let Bush’s call go to voicemail…
And I notice that it says that Gonzo submitted his resignation on Friday just in time to enjoy a Sunday lunch with his boss.. yeah right…
August 27th, 2007 at 5:38 pmFinish the joke:
“So, there are four dimwits sitting around a dinner table, and the dimwit wearing the plaid shirt turns to the dimwit next to him and says, ….”
August 27th, 2007 at 5:38 pmGeorge seems to enjoy large-breasted women. Perhaps he should sell the ranch and buy a dairy farm.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:39 pmTrying to cull the liberal herd, I suppose.
Comment by LibTeenie — August 27, 2007 @ 5:23 pm
Yea? Then like I said whats she doing in the midwest?
Hell whats she doing in Texas?
Building you guys a waterpark?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:40 pmHah! Look at Bush’s outfit! What a hillbilly!
No kidding, I mean jeans and a shirt? COME ON, next thing you know the guy will be wearing a cowboy hat or something! The hick obviously doesnt know that you need to wear a tux everywhere you go, or at least one of those tux t-shirts.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:40 pmGeorge and Laura look so close…. NOT.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:40 pmBush fired him. He didn’t resign. The Chimp invited Gonzalez to his ranch to break the news to him over lunch.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:40 pm…pull my finger?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:41 pmYea? Then like I said whats she doing in the midwest?
Well, uh, Minnesota just got hit to the tune of about five counties being named as federal disaster areas. Last time I checked we were still a blue state…mores the pity.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:42 pmGeorge and Laura look so close…. NOT.
I know, its sad. They should be arm in arm and trading tongue jabs.
Keep ‘em coming!
August 27th, 2007 at 5:44 pmGeorge seems to enjoy large-breasted women.
Dont we all. Ok maybe not you.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:45 pm“So, there are four dimwits sitting around a dinner table, and the dimwit wearing the plaid shirt turns to the dimwit next to him and says, ….â€
Oh, this joke is about the last DNC fundraiser? Wait…let me figure this one out. Was it Pelosi or Dean wearing the plaid shirt?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:47 pmMmmmm hmmmmm, quite.
Comment by Cundalini Wants His Hand Back — August 27, 2007 @ 5:22 pm
Sexist or just like scoping out titties?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:47 pmWow, Laura is looking like a junkie lately.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:47 pmGonzo’s “wife” is a MILF.
M.aybe I.’ve got a shot at L.icking that F.ine rack.
August 27th, 2007 at 5:57 pmLook at how everyone else is dressed; bush is out of place. Like a kid would be. He apparently doesn’t have the capacity understand that play time (as some sort of cowboy) is over he should get cleaned up for his company. He’s the friggin president for Christ sake, do we want this slack-jawed yokel in a photo-op portraying the US citizen?
August 27th, 2007 at 5:59 pmWow! Laura’s nerve looks really pinched in that photo!
August 27th, 2007 at 6:18 pmWhile W is not my favorite person in this world. I might mention that I do not dress to impress. My pants are stained with walnut stain from the secretary desk that I am building for the granddaughter.
August 27th, 2007 at 6:34 pmThat did not bother the guy today at the furnature store when Idid a $2,000 debit from my checking account as a deposit on a dining room set.
The last supper.
Is this a joke?
TP is comparing Alberto Gonzales to Jesus!!!
For it was Jesus who “resigned” after The Last Supper, and now it is Gonzales!!!
Too FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 27th, 2007 at 6:42 pmGonezo is more like Judas.
August 27th, 2007 at 7:03 pmI just glad, estactic, and thrilled that this MORON, FACIST, BOTCH SUCKER IS GONE!!!!!
But the damage is done. They win!
We are ALL phjcked until the entire DoJ is PURGED FROM TOP TO BOTTOM!!!!
August 27th, 2007 at 7:10 pmLaura is going to miss those wife swapping parties.
George is going to miss eating the refried beans and making fart jokes with Al.

“As all Americans know, recent weeks have brought a second wave of terrorist attacks upon our country: deadly anthrax spores sent through the U.S. mail.” — President Bush
