Is Bush capable of anything else?

It's a sad day when a former lobbyist for AIPAC is the "left-wing" in US political debate. I'm of course talking about Wolf Blitzer.

That's OK. There's a storm coming.

Sorry, but I can't watch more than a few seconds of it. Wolfie boy and Jack Cafferty are without a doubt two of the most arrogant television stick people currently on the networks. And Bush? He'll say anything to try and get some attention. Hell, FoxSnooze is reporting he is hanging out the WhiteHouse window yelling "I still be da Preznit" LOL.

LOL! @ 4:

Wish someone would call Obama out for distorting CLINTON's record.

ya.....k.......a slinky, a slinky, a wonderful magical toy...a slinky, a slinky............

Basically, only Jack Cafferty has the stones and the freedom at CNN to call out anybody.

The People vs. The Media

How has the arrogant and corrupt Bush family managed to seize so much power for so long?

Look to History for the answer.
http://www.consortiumnews.com/2008/021008a.html

Is anybody really surprised that Bush smugly lied though his teeth while a "F word" network Noise reporter did not challenge him? Of course not, and this is the kind of thing the Democrats have to be ready for. The Republicans will steal, lie and cheat to keep the White House and they have a television network on their side helping them too. Until the rest of the media and the internet blogs continue to highlight every lie and distortion, from both sides, Americans will be left voting not for President, but against the candidate they like the least.

Are we sure that the Bash is not really named Bush ? Yea w is astute alright , astutely brain

dead .

Only a D.C. humanoid like Dana Bash would ever think of bush as "astute".

Whaaahhhhh? You mean Mr. NON-RELEVANT, sitting there with a shit-eating smirk on his face as if he has any clout in this election, let alone the world, is spewing false statements about the one candidate who's making the Republican party shit its britches???

Say it ain't so, Joe!

Dana Bash refers to Bush's out and out lies as "talking points" and his admitted ignorance as astute. Disgraceful.

OOOOOOOOOOO!!
I'M SCARED!!!!
lol

PLEASE HELP ME I NEED MORE WAR!!!
Vote McWAR like hope but different!
BWAAAHAAAHAAAA!!

That was just stupid do they really think that is going to work? Oh wait they could bring back the TERROR ALERT SYSTEM!!!
IT'S CODE ORANGE PEOPLE!! YOU BETTER VOTE McWAR!!! OR THE BROWN PEOPLE WILL GET US ALL!!!!!
SCARY!!!!! OOOOOOOOO!!!!
LOL

wow, i'm surprised CNN is doing its job!

we should support the MSM when it calls out the bullshit...

Liberal AND Proud @ 22:

LOL! @ 4:

Clinton's record speaks for itself...voted for the war.

And voted for the next war, on Iran. Not morally fit to lead the nation. And it seems that the Dems voting now know it--amazing.

There's one indisputable fact about Bush that can't be distorted: he's the worst president in U.S. history. Period. History doesn't have to happen for him to be assessed. The present is judging him now, and he's a failure. Thanks for nothing, sir, and the Republican Party.

So Dana is saying we can expect more lies from the republicans in the coming months and that'll be okay? Interesting point of view she shared. She seemed to be the cleanup person after Jack exposed bush's lies. Fair and Balanced? Where have I heard that before.

Jack is going to have Media Matters all over his case for defending Obama...which is, by definition, an attack on Hillary...

Barrett D @ 27:

wow, i'm surprised CNN is doing its job!

oh ya i was stunned too...it was like a morning coffee clutch....blitzer and cafferty and toobin on the same page...the correct page!!!

priceless!!!

Bush and the rest of the Republicans will continue to distort and throw flat out lies against Obama. I liked the way Jack Cafferty shot down Bush's lies but their responses need to be much faster. The responses need to come from the candidates as well as from journalists like Jack Cafferty alike very quickly so that those lies do not sink in. It is falsehoods and lies like these that people remember and if the candidate waits to long to shoot them down its to late. This was John Kerry's problem in 2004. He waited to long to refute the Swift Boat veteran's lies and it cost him.

marko @ 36:

bush is astute.....???

that's like saying the three stooges were poetic

The three stooges had more brains in moe's little finger then bush has in his whole fucking body.

And Blitzer let Dana redirect, have the last word and praised her "work". Move along nothing to see here, pay no attention to the facts and the lies.

LOL@4 Classic trolling. Spit out some baseless dumb shit then cut and run like a bitch.

Didn't Bush say mission accomplished before he said he had a plan for victory before he said he had a surge plan.

Aside from that poor woman who has been working all day for weeks it was nice to see several people call Bush out on his bullshit for a change.

"The Republicans are afraid of a Barack Obama nomination." Can anyone think of a better reason to vote for him?

In case no one noticed...it doesn't matter if CNN is calling out Bush's lies. Someone actually has to go on Fox News to do that. Otherwise those 'people' never get an opposing opinion. That's not going to happen anytime soon.

CNN's Dana Bash actually had the gall to call Dubyah an "astute" politician. Condi, watch your back girl, another dumb bitch is after your man.

Oh, yes, Ms. Bash, George Bush is an "astute" political observer. That's why he predicted the Repugs would hold congress in the 2006 elections.

Bush lies because the truth is not in him. Never has been. And now he's a has been. The tide of history has already moved past him and he's desperately trying to prove he's still relevant. Which gives me pause.

But we, the people need to stay on our toes. One way to push back against the lies is to be always vigilant and immediately contact the media to challenge. Like yesterday, Donna Brazile on the Situation Room chastised Blitzer for an inaccurate crawl about superdelegates running across the screen.

Several minutes later--same old, same old--Blitzer referenced that same distortion about superdelegates in a question, and I immediate posted a comment on the CNNpolitics.com blog. The more of us that do that, the better. The media need to tear up the tired old scripts and start paying attention. Because we sure as hell are.

Mac-the-mouth @ 56:

That's just Bush being a uniter, not a divider. Whoops, looks like he's dropped the facade on that now too.

It will be interesting to see how the future judges GWB--how much money would you put on "failure"? Discuss...!

I noticed (at the end) that Blitzer told Dana -- after calling Bush "an astute observer" -- to "get some rest."

I agree. Bush will continue to lie about candidates because he has nothing to lose at this point. His credibility is already in the toilet but that really never mattered to him or his Administration. They deliberately lie about a candidate or an issue such as Iraq hoping that no one will call them on it. If enough time passes, the American people start to believe that what Bush said is true because no one stepped forward to refute it.  They lied about many issues and always imposed a sense of urgency on the people to push it through.  By the time the MSM or the people started to refute those lies the issue(s) were already passed or in the case of Iraq, the invasion was already started and by then, it was to late to do anything about it.

Telling flat-out lies about vitally important subjects and playing the public for fools makes Bush an "astute political observer"?

These television pundits really blow me away.

MargeAggedon @ 26:

shrub is concerned and interested and knowledgeable? Who's the retard with the mike spewing that garbage? You would have to be without a pulse to accept a giant steaming piece of stinking shit like that. The man is barely conscious of his surroundings on most days!! What is that imbecile talking about when she says shrub is politically active and interested? He's incapable of doing anything except what cheney and his other owners tell him to do. Anything that comes out of his mouth is either practiced for hours [possibly days] so he might get it right or coming at him from a &!@#$! teleprompter!
shrub is a f**king moron of such global proportions that suggesting he has an understanding of anything other than perhaps how to dress himself in the morning, and that's a stretch, makes her look like she's been smoking crack. Or at least drinking too much reslug koolaid.

And nice of wolf to try and make shrub look right. That's cute. You're a circus clown boy. Get lost.

I agree with everything you just said, and still it sounded mean. But deserved. You know how to bring it.

pickles @ 70:

"Astute and interested" in the same sentence as George Bush .... I beg your pardon, lady? Yeah, get some rest. Good idea.

Funny how even Wolf was making excuses for "overtired" Dana after that inane comment.

How can you distort a record when he doesn't have one. Oh yeah, when you distort it you are implying that he does. I hear their installing a new button to go along with Yay, or Nay in the Senate just for B.O. Superstar. It's labeled "Maybe."

Preacher Boob @ 74:

Obama don't know nothin' about 'distortion' yet, so far all he's experienced is 'competing' with Hillary. And that's going to seem as if someone was licking his ear, compared to what's gonna happen when McCain starts chewing on his achilles heels.

When the republican 'truth squads' (AKA Swift Boaters) get done, Obama's gonna look like a communist terrorist pickaninny infant wrapped in swaddling cloths made of camel skin, who was baptized into the Muslim Terrorist Religion by being dipped into the river of oil that flows between the Mosque of the Prophet Muhammed in Ma dina and the Shia Shrine in Samarra, who has sworn revenge upon the 'Infidels' (AKA Americans), and plans to Nuke the White House the day after he is inaugurated.

L.A. Confidential @ 40:

The American people voted the Democrats in with a majority mandate to end this war.

Why should Obama be let off the hook? If he was the dynamic, persuasive, influencial, and powerful leader the media likes to portray him as he would have pulled Pelosi and Reid aside and said, "Look, we made a promise to the American People to STOP this lunacy. Now I am not asking you I am telling you we need to keep our word and our commitment. WHATEVER IT TAKES. And we need to start RIGHT NOW and do what we promised to do. I am not going to allow you to destroy my reputation because your afraid to do what you were elected to do."

Thats the fact. Sorry to be so blunt.

How do you know he didn't? Any facts?

Well if he did. He failed.

What is so hard to understand about that?

If Obama wins the general I will vote for him. But I'm not that naive to believe he is some kind of omnipotent miracle worker who's going to wave a magic wand and save the world just by uttering. "Yes we can" every time he makes an appearance and does a press conference.

The bottom line is at some point he is going to have to come out and say . . look, if you want to help this country get back on it's feet your going to have to stop loafing around, clean up your act, get involved with the system, work hard and full time, be serious about what your doing, and then maybe we'll have a chance.

The main problem I see in the Repubs and Dems is lobbyist corruption. I don't think anyone can change that until you get rid of every clown that's been in there most of their lives, and bring in fresh blood. That isn't going to happen though, as long as SOME Dem supporters (PiLA anyone?) continue to make excuses for their lack of accountability and their inability to do anything. CONgress, the Senate, etc, should all have term limits like the Presidency and it would end alot of this porkbarrel politics. Good luck at getting the pigs away from the trough though.

I'm not so sure its going to be that easy this time around. In order to pull that off the "swift boater" types will have to have a very good message that is not easily discounted. Besides, I think the Obama campaign already knows how this works and are prepared. Notice how fast a member of Obama's campaign came out to denounce Bush's lies?

Interesting display there. What we saw was a president willfully lie to the American people and FOX provide the forum for him to do it. What was said was not about Obama at all. It was about Bush and FOX. Perhaps the folks at CNN might stop abetting the president by calling his lies "talking points". From what I have seen virtually all "talking points" are lies. Might also help to stop calling Troop Increases "surges", insurgents "Al quida" and so forth. Bush is not alone in getting us where we are today..CNN helped him out quite a bit.

Most of these elected representatives have millions of dollars in investment assets, salaries in the mid to high six figures. More perks, comforts, conveniences, and benefits then most people will ever see in their lifetime.

And people wonder why nothing ever gets accomplished that seriously gives the common person a chance to get ahead?

Yep. The problem is that they are professional politicians, or as I like to call them, BULLSHIT artists. Running to represent the everyday common person would be noble, but that is not why these clowns run. They run to represent their own wallets more than anything. You don't have to worry about your corporate interests being threatened if you control the government. It's sad. Limiting how long you can be in government would cure that instantly. That's why you'll never see it. Surprised they haven't changed the constitution to allow Prez to run more than twice.

George W. BushSon a former president, decided to build on father's reputation and ignored sociopolitical realities to topple Saddam and catapult Iraq into chaos. Disastrous as a president, has military service that is questionable. Involved in multiple scandals, including insider trading while CEO of an oil/energy company, and payoffs.

I'm starting to think the DNC/DLC is not only manipulating the campaign to deprive Clinton of her presidential bid, but is trying to be so mean about it that she can't be considered for the VP slot.

Nancy Pelosi says they want the "new, exciting candidate who's bringing new voters to the party." Guess the long-time traditional Democrats who've supported the party for years don't count anymore.

I won't mention his name, but he flew air missions during the Cuban Missle Crisis, flew 64 combat missions in Vietnam, he was shot down and endured over 6 years as a POW in Hanoi, he was commander of an air force base, established a successful private business, he served 3 terms as a congressman, and was appointed as America's first Ambassador to Vietnam by President Clinton.

Hey everybody. If you need ANY political information don't go to C&L, just contact Derry. He's never lost an election(whatever the fuck that means). If you don't agree with him its because you're stupid. By the way, Obama's an empty suit.

I agree.

No one has been more specific with future plans than Obama, to suggest otherwise shows that you either never listened to him or looked them up.

Either way your ignorance is not his or our fault.

Obam repeats them in his speaches which can be found by anyone who is smart enough to type, even if the words "empty suit" are what you consider substance.

By the way not only is Derry not capable of running a campaign nor has he ever been,He seems to be a little slow or at least not up to speed.

Obama addressed the present vote thing long ago. With all your experience and political savy why are you asking US lowly no-campaign experience-having folk to answer questions for YOU about something the rest of us knew weeks if not months ago!

Do you understand what a present vote means in Il?

If you do then you are deliberately smearing the man. If not that is your fault because the info is out there.

Next you'll bring up the Rezko crap I'm sure.

Do yourself a favor...research Obama/Rezko yourself ,research Obamas specific plans for your self.

We simple folk sure would appreciate it ; )

Derry@138 And you call us political hacks.LOL! Derry, do me a favor and ask crazy Johnny how many innocent Vietnamese farmers he shot down during his heroic combat missions.
