Taken from 1984, a novel by George Orwell

I can only assume that he means we should say “Thank you” in the manner of your stereotypical fraternity pledge — as in, “Thank you, sir…may I have another?”

Nope — sorry, Dubya. In my world, the more appropriate response to what you and they have done would not be “Thank You” but rather “F*** You.”

Same for the telecoms: they were wary of the wiretaps and wanted warrants to legalize the process, but didn’t want to seem unpatriotic when their President asked them to do something illegal to fight the terrorists. And the telecoms couldn’t publicize it or ask for outside help, because that would tip off the terrorists to the wiretaps Bush was asking for.

Now the telecoms are in trouble, and Bush is hiding behind them. Bush is asking people not to sue the patriotic telecoms, when what he is really doing is covering his own *ss. If the telecoms are forced to answer for what they’ve done in a lawsuit, George’s political espionage will become apparent to the public. Then the harsh hypocrisy of Bush claiming to be a terrorist fighter to get wiretaps, and then spying on the Democrats instead, would be grossly apparent: another Watergate. If Bush had any integrity, he would step up and say “I broke the law when I asked the telecoms to do this. The telecoms were too zealous in following their President’s orders, but I am responsible for breaking the law and violating Americans’ rights to privacy.” Now, yes, we all know Bush is essentially trying to legalize after the fact a Watergate-style political espionage fishing trip disguised as a patriotic terrorist hunt. The telecoms are just his tools, and now his shield. But nobody gets killed in a lawsuit. By definition, a lawsuit is an attempt to get Justice. We must sue the telecoms simply to restore their, and our, integrity and sense of law. Oh, and to get that *asshat impeached, too.

Allowing 2 of the world’s most recognizable structures/buildings to be rammed into and toppled is “patriotic” ?

What the hell is wrong with this retarded simian imbecile …………..

this insane comment of his ranks up there with that all time great quote, “We are addicted to oil”. You see the reason we are addicted to oil is because of the Bushies in the world and the reason we will be forever addicted to oil is because of the Bushies in the world.

Middle finger extended.

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

Dubya is scared too. Hope he doesn’t do something desperate. With him and Cheney in power anything is possible.

Of course knowing Herr Codpiece, he might just open his mouth and say something that lands him in jail. Granted, nothing he’s done so far has landed him there but there has to be SOMETHING that would get him there.

I am so disappointed in David Gregory. At one time I thought he had promise and might actually become a reporter. But, ever since he danced with Karl Rove, he has lost his edge and become another useless white house talking-head reporter. He makes me want to gag when I see him on MSNBC.

It’s more important to them that they get invited to the McCain barbecue than do their jobs. They need to all get fired and replace by young and hungry kids looking to make a journalistic name rather than talent trying not to alienate anybody.
