In an interview with the London Times Online, White House press secretary Dana Perino describes her loyalty to her boss: “Once a Bushie, always a Bushie.” She adds that history will judge Bush kindly: “The president once said popularity is a puff of air; it can be gone in an instant. What matters are principles.” Karl Rove, also quoted for the piece, can’t understand what Perino doesn’t see in men like him, and why she married a British man:
Karl Rove, Bush’s former senior adviser, believes Englishmen have all the luck. “What has Peter got that the average American male like me doesn’t have? An accent? That’s not fair. One of our great American treasures has been taken by the British.”
Rove remains close to Perino, although he left the White House in August. “She has a really sharp mind, fine judgment and a great sense of humour. She is one of the most talented professionals I’ve seen,” he said.

December 9th, 2007 at 10:43 amAh, the Dana Barbie speaks. And what quotable quotes.
Bubblicious...
December 9th, 2007 at 10:53 am...
...
I'm stunned. Don't they know that "Bushie" isn't a Compliment?!?!
Wow.
December 9th, 2007 at 10:55 amIt's like watching daytime TV. I will now go hit myself in the head with a hammer.
December 9th, 2007 at 10:58 amDana makes it sound like a question of Texas versus Texas A&M. "Once a long horn, always a long horn."
The British will tell you that they don't have accents, Americans do.
December 9th, 2007 at 11:09 amI thought it was pretty embarrassing for the paper, making this a front page story of the Sunday Times, they usually do better.
December 9th, 2007 at 11:10 amRove and Perino should stick to the official roles in public. This kind of overt familiarity and talk of personal issues is bad for the image of the administration.
Comment by Frank M — December 9, 2007 @ 10:45 am
yes. mass-murder, treason and greed iare the real hallmarks of the Bush regime, and should be in the forefront of any and all "news", not this sycophantic cocksucking.
December 9th, 2007 at 11:14 amI’ve always wondered what we sound like to the British. To us they sound all prim and proper so to them we must sound like a bunch of hicks. Interviewing Dana Perino would make us sound like a bunch of hicks, but it’s not her accent that would do it. It’s what coming out of her mouth. Does this mean Dana has dual citizenship and just exactly where will she living out her golden years?
December 9th, 2007 at 11:21 am"... a Bushie.â€
ok... maybe we should take that lead... i know i'll try now...
from now on, instead of "rightie" - because ALL right leaners
aren't all bad - i will henceforth refer to the bushco criminals and
their backers as "bushies"... there IS a distinction...
also, heard a good quote from biden earlier, with stephanopolis...
he was answering a question about gnewt's assertion that the
revised intelligence repost was a bush attack...
biden said "who you gonna believe?" ... newt or 16 intel agencies?...
and ended his little rant with: "this is the nixon administration
without the competence"...
that's rich...
December 9th, 2007 at 11:28 am"Rove and Perino should stick to the official roles in public. This kind of overt familiarity and talk of personal issues is bad for the image of the administration."
Yes, gee, what a horrible shame.
December 9th, 2007 at 11:30 amPrinciples? What principles? Lies and deceit? Bwahahahahahahaha... Bush has no credibility whatsoever Dana - all you're really doing is supporting a war criminal. If that's aOK with you - so be it.
December 9th, 2007 at 11:35 amWhy would anyone especially The London Times interview this deer in the headlights?
I mean, did they not sell enought ads that day to make an edition.

This might be the answer. From wikipedia:
"With its sister paper The Sunday Times, The Times is published by Times Newspapers Limited, a subsidiary of News International, itself wholly owned by the News Corporation group, headed by Rupert Murdoch."
December 9th, 2007 at 11:55 amThanks for the info. Keith. I had forgotten that Rupert had bought The Times.
Interviewing Perino makes it obvious that he is now turning it into a worthless rag.
What a shame.
Perino makes me gag.
December 9th, 2007 at 12:35 pmI prefer neatly trimmed over naturally bushie, but she's free to maintain the grounds however she sees fit. Our hirsute little "press" secretary.
December 9th, 2007 at 12:45 pm"She is one of the most talented professionals I’ve seen"... She gets payed to go there, face the american people and LIE, LIE AND LIE. She gets payed to be loyal to the WAR CRIMINALS CHENNEY AND BUSH.
December 9th, 2007 at 12:49 pm“Once a Bushie, always a Bushie.†So now we know where she stands when these criminals face accaountability we will remind her that she was, she is and she always will be a WAR CRIMINALISHY, I mean a "Bushie"!
"What matters are principles."
This coming from one of the mos UNPRINCIPLED groups of people ever to be in the White House. Incredible! These people are liars and thiefs, stealing the U.S. Treasury at will. What's so principled about that. They hurt people who exercise their rights under the U.S. Constitution; e.g., Valerie Plame and her family. Oh, and BTW, outing Plame was and still is: TREASON. I have never known treason to be principled. Treason is unpatriotic. This unprincipled group of people will be judged harshly by history for the very reason she thinks history will be kinder. She is nothing more than a blonde bimbo prostituting herself for a bunch of unprincipled idiots.
December 9th, 2007 at 12:52 pmAirhead Perino showing off her lack of IQ, once again. This woman is coming unglued because she realizes that what she's trying to spin are lies, lies, and more lies. History will judge Dana Perino as a "liar and enabler" - "aider and abettor" - of the Bush lies and corruption. Spinmeister Liar will be Dana's historic moniker. I hope she's preparing to go into hiding soon.
December 9th, 2007 at 12:59 pmHistory will judge this administration as the "most corrupt EVER in the history of this country". It will also be judged as the Administration who tried to destroy the Constitution - something it will never shake from it's reputation. Lies, corruption, and truth-twisters, every last one of them.
In that sense, her comment "once a bushitco, always a bushitco" is relevant - because Once a Liar/Always a Liar until it reaches pathological proportions. And right now the entire cadre of criminals are definitely "pathological liars".
Perino is a blonde airhead - nothing more. No one is listening to her drivel at this point. She's stammering and stuttering all over herself and looks as pale as a ghost.
Perino will never sleep a full night's sleep after the way she's prostituting herself for a paycheck and for what she deems "limelight". What she's too infantile to comprehend is that darkness is the absence of light into which she steps willingly every day of the week.
Guilt by association; abetting by lying - that's Miss Airhead Perino.
December 9th, 2007 at 1:03 pmThe Bush administration makes the Nixon Administration look rinky-dink - like Child's Play by comparison to the thuggery which has been their hallmark for 6 long years.
December 9th, 2007 at 1:03 pm“Once a Bushie, always a Bushie.†In translation: once a liar, always a liar. Yup, and the WH bubblehead press secretary worked hard of serving at the pleasure of the President.
December 9th, 2007 at 1:37 pmI think Dana is HOT!! I lying bimbo, but very HOT.
December 9th, 2007 at 2:30 pmCondoleezza Rice and Tzipi Livni involved in love affair
A Former Israeli education minister has accused the US secretary of state and Israeli Foreign Minster of having a sexual relationship.
Limor Livnat, who is an Israeli Knesset (parliament) member, has told Benjamin Netanyahu that Condoleezza Rice and Tzipi Livni have sexual affairs.
Meanwhile, an American newspaper has quoted Rice as saying that she is a lesbian and has bought her partner an apartment in New York in order to engage in sexual conduct.
My partner has never had a relationship with a man, Rice said.

Principles? What principles? Lies and deceit?
No, I think she was referring to that time-honored principle of the 'Bushies'--"the ends always justify the means". Even when the means have no justification at all.
December 9th, 2007 at 3:21 pmPerino: ‘Once a Bushie, always a Bushie.’
Good. We'll save a spot on the gallows for you.
December 9th, 2007 at 3:24 pm“What has Peter got that the average American male like me doesn’t have?"
Karl, it might have something to do with the fact that he's not a disgusting, sweaty little troll like yourself. But that's just a guess.
And you're not the average American male, either, thank God.
December 9th, 2007 at 5:35 pmMaybe..let me think, oh yeah...Rove and Perino can SHARE a coach seat on the one-way flight to the HAGUE...!!!
Folks, if this is the best we've got were in DEEP trouble....
December 9th, 2007 at 6:34 pmOh yeah, Karl -- Perino has a sharp mind and fine judgment, AND she's a talented professional.
That's why the daily WH press conferences are an embarrassing joke, Karl. Perino is an over-trained Bush lackey. We pay her salary and then watch her deflect every answer, just like Ari, Scottie, and Tony. Karl, I'm so glad to know Dana is your friend. You can really pick 'em.
December 9th, 2007 at 8:51 pmfound this at C&L... an interesting bio (@ link) of perino...
she's no sloutch after all... and loves her daddies...
but why go to the dark side?
too bad...
NPR: Dana Perino Don’t Know Much About History
December 9th, 2007 at 9:37 pmWhy are they talking to these people? They're war criminals and homers. Ugh.

Preserving and protecting the Constitution probably lies near the bottom of the Bush Administration's priorities. In fact, the destruction of the Constitution would probably be their most cherished legacy. For those who might doubt this, please consider the following illustrative statement:
“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,†Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!â€

With apologies to my British friends, the Brits can have her. Meanwhile, the US has received a much more intelligent--not to mention--attractive gift from the UK in the form of Elizabeth Harper Kucinich.
December 10th, 2007 at 4:47 amYea we’ll see Purina in 20 years and ask her how history judged the Bushy.
And the answer then will be te same now.
Worst president this country’s ever had.

Please, BARTLEBEE, my cats sometimes eat Purina. I think Dana Peroxide would make even them puke.
