White House on Nazi smear: Who, us?
In the morning, the president, in a speech to the Israeli Knesset, suggested that Democrats want to appease terrorists, the way some wanted to appease Hitler. In the afternoon, the White House thought it best to play dumb.
Q:There’s some question about his comment here about “some seem to believe we should negotiate with terrorists and radicals as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong” — you know the passage. And he talks about the “false comfort of appeasement.” This is being seen in some quarters as a slam on Senator Obama. Is this in any way directed at Senator Obama?
PERINO: It is not. And I would think that all of you who cover these issues and have for a long time have known that there are many who have suggested these types of negotiations with people that President Bush thinks we should not talk to. I understand when you’re running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you — that is not always true and it is not true in this case.
Q: But, so, not aimed at him — do they include him?
PERINO: He’ll have to speak for himself as to what his policy is and you guys can know it well.
Yes, of course, the Bush gang is completely innocent. Who, them? Travel to foreign soil to slander a U.S. political leader in the midst of a domestic presidential campaign? How could we have ever gotten such an idea in the first place?
Oh, right, I remember now — from White House officials who conceded this morning that this was precisely the point of Bush’s cheap and pathetic smear attempt. CNN’s Ed Henry reported, “White House aides are acknowledging that this was a reference to the fact that Sen. Obama and other Democrats have publicly said that it would be ok for the U.S. President to meet with leaders like the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad.” And NBC’s John Yang also spoke with a White House official who said Obama was one of Bush’s intended targets.
if dana were a man, she would deserve to be kicked between the legs.
what a b*tch.
I understand when you’re running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you
Yeah, I mean, Bush only condemned the opposition party's foreign policy, and this Obama guy thinks the president was talking about him. Why? Because he's likely to be the nominee to lead that opposition party, and succeed the president in the White House? What an ego Obama must have!
Why doesn't the entire press quit covering Ms. Perino. Why doesn't the entire press refuse to go to the WH gaggle? Helen Thomas, are you out there? Why don't you lead the shunning of Perino and WH news. It isn't news, nor is it reliable anyway.
this needs video; please post it
There should be a contest as to who was the biggest liar in Chimpy 'n Chinny'e Admonistration. Oh'Really 'n Hand nitty can be the judges they believe themselves to be.
Wow, the snake slithers and hisses!! Who knew?

So sad... She's so hot, but such a whore... Damn...
These guys are experts at acting dumb. The trick is, they aren't acting.
The Republicans appear to have acted according to their usual, predictable misunderstandings. In an effort to shatter stereotypes about "dumb blondes," the White House decided to appoint an actual dumb blonde as press secretary, and show the world what she could really do.

I get the feeling that you are the person for whom laugh tracks were invented. How else would you know when a joke had been told?
.
Barbie Perino said: "I understand when you’re running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you —"
But when you get to be George W. Bush, it does...
.
I really hate to say this. But to go all the way to Israel to pander to Israel (and the System Of The World) is pitiful.
Not exactly Roosevelt in Trinidad, eh?
The Pinocchio Administration strikes again.
Obama pretty much put that smear to rest today in his excellent speeches. He's so good at combating cheap GOP attacks I think he'll have no problem winning the election come November.
If Helen would lead a parade out of the next press corps gaggle, that would initiate a resounding, "Hear! Hear!" around the country...but what REALLY blows my mind is that my dreamboat intellectual, Rachel Maddow, just had the best interview with Chris Matthews that I have ever seen.
Tweety soared on wings of wisdom today!

When you go all the way there, it's no longer pandering. It's evidence that your are lint in their back pocket.
The only reason anyone would want such a hateful job, in the bu$h administration, is if they are just as rabid a mongrel as he is.

Some times you have to test the waters. Thanks for drawing the line.
The perfect person for spokesperson of this administration. A stupid bimbo graduate from the U of So. Colo. We know about her grasp of history a la Bay of Pigs. I am ashamed to say my undergraduate degree is from the same school. I'll stick with OU as my alma mater from now on!
20 years in Rev. Wright's church and Obama never hears anything untoward. 20 seconds of a Bush speech that doesn't mention his name and all of a sudden he turns into the Amazing Kreskin.
It was a lame analogy, but I think it hurt him worse than it hurt Obama.
Tokyo Perino - White House propagandist.
dennis @ 25:
What an intellectually stimulating comment. Kind of like a grunt in the toilet.
Karen @ 15:
You STEPFORD femmes wouldn't know a joke if it hit you in the face. Laugh tracks are another rePUBLIC invention and has been used extensively by the Jokes in the White House.
Bush has spent 4000 American lives and half trillion of our tax dollars and for what? An oil war that has failed miserably. He still has to beg and gravel the Saudis for oil.

Jimsy @ 29:
Haven't seen ya here, before, Jimsy, so I'll cut ya some slack here. Please don't go further with this. I'm a regular here. Well known in the comments sections and to the site owner. Trust me on this one: you're not coming off as the smart one in this exchange.
I'll stop with the back and forth, and just explain it to you plainly. I was being sarcastic in my first comment.
repugs are like spoiled little rotten assholes, one doesn't ask them why they do what they do instead one has to tell them we know what they did; one has to accuse them otherwise they will lie.
Plus chimpy is a punk for not coming out and stating the next president's name when he gets all cowboy like and starts talking shit. How dare this cold-blooded nut besmirch Sen. Obama!
chimpy is stupid and ignorant (unlike some here who thinks he's brilliant) he doesn't care what side his asskissers come from.
repugs keep worrying about Michelle and Rev. Wright, I'll keep both my eyes on the idiot-in-heat.
Wow, the White House playing dumb? I didn't know they had to 'play' dumb - I thought with this gang of thieves it just came naturally.
Rethugs are smirky assed idiots.
Who'da thunk it!
tHeIKnowAHusseinGaMeOfLiFe @ 33:
Actually, the people who think he's brilliant are also stupid and ignorant. :)
Is this an example of a Rovian tactic? To smear an opponent and then say well, he just thinks the world revolves around him, that's why he thinks he's the one getting smeared?
I hear Carly Simon singing "You're so Vain" alla sudden. Is it a buzzkill? No!
Dee Dee Myers was a cuter liar.
Karen @ 32:
I read C&L daily, without fail, but not always the comments. I've commented before and I did not recognize your sarcism and suspected a troll. I apologize.
Wouldn't it be just a perfect world if Bush could make a statement and all those who felt it was a slam on Obama and liked it heard it that way and all those who felt the opposite heard it as a slam on someone else?
In your dreams, George!
Ruthless People @ 27:
Official kneepadder.
Perino is so short she don't need any knee pads!

Must've been easy.
Dishonest and shameful but not surprising from the worst president in usa history and the dirty rotten liars who work for him.
So, Bushes grandfather is a traitor to his country in actual fact and no one mentions it. The entire Bush line should be jailed for their treasonous acts and war crimes. Here's a link to a story about good old grandpa Prescott: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2004/sep/25/usa.secondworldwar

Che Obama? You really think anyone can rouse complacent Americans to stand up and fight for their rights? If America hasn't gotten riled enough to throw the Bush Crime Syndicate out after all they've done to this country, what chance does Obama have?
Soon the press will no longer be able to use their recording devices to recordify President Bonzo.

The true essence of far-left liberalism.
Good Morning America ... Let me start off by saying WOW.
A day doesn't go by without the illustrious idiot-in-chief, yes, that guy with the idiosyncratic pathology who sits in the Oval office and talks to his dogs, giving the world something new to drop their jaws on the floor.
I was just at a place for breakfast with some European friends and a few Canadians (and I think another American who claims to be an Aussie. The news came on BBC-America and half of the group had coffee shooting out of their noses. Times like this I am so glad I have the thick Italian accent and people don't think I'm American. My close friends know, but right now, I'm not advertising the fact.
Anyway, this news is just getting to be too much to watch. I'm hoping by now that the good American citizens know that this group in power has to go before they destroy the rest of the world along with the U. S.
I want to laugh, but things look too serious for laughing.
It's absolutely past time. They need to be removed from the White House. Physically, if necessary.

Denis, you don't understand the fringes of the Left let alone the essence.
Dennis, we are laughing at you too!
A real discussion of history would be in order. Who is projecting Nazi sympathizers onto the Democrats? Try the grandson of one of the biggest Nazi enablers in America. And where did Bush go after Israel? Why, to beg to his oil buddies in Saudi Arabia who have been totally excused and rewarded even though 15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudis. Why is Bush never held accountable?
Steve,
Whoa. Hold on here. Let's you and me get something straight. Dana Perino does not "play dumb."
She embodies it.
dennis @ 55:
Dennis: Not all of us are "far left" as you like to portray us. I think alot of us got pushed further to the left because of this admin. Please don't generalise us. We vary a great deal.
You know it took this asshole a while to get up to speed, but she's managed to grow up to be just as big a liar as the rest of them.
mudshark @ 64:
Well i am far left. If anything i have drifted to the right to join the Democratic Party to drive these criminals out of office!
mudshark @ 64:
In dennis' defense, he was not labeling everyone here as far left. He was saying that the essence of the far left is the genuine desire to torture and behead our leaders.
That is not a generalization about all people on the left. It's just stupid.

The far left also includes those who enjoy the so-called "far left-handed cigarette."
There once was a gal named Perino

LOL, Ok. You're needed more now than ever.
Dana. What an Aryan beauty.
What if Bush went to Israel to discuss his specific plans about attacking Iran in the near future? That why I think he went. And I think they must have discussed how the next president would view such a move and continue the action, and that's why Bush said what he did about the Democrats wanting to "appease the terrorists", to contrast them with his own cowboy plans.

Obviously a shameless smear concocted by Hillary and the GOP. It sickens me that Hillary has the nerve to be working with the GOP now to take down Obama. That pathetic women is so goddamn vengeful. How long must we burn that witch alive before she finally dies? It feels like it's been forever yet she's still alive and kicking. It's pissing me off. We really just need to kick that bitch out like we did with Joe Lieberman. Flush the pests out of our party.
Saint Augustine @ 79:
I grew up 5 blocks from it. The guy across the street was an usher. I got to see any game that was not a sell out for free.
I saw Mickey Mantel hit his last home run in Baltimore in that stadium. I saw Boog Powell hit four home runs in one game there. I drove a Cadilac at age ten in the parking lot (courtesy of a friends dad). It is gone now. The "fans" at the new stadium show up in business suits and talk on cell phones.
that press secretary is pretty hot.
What if they threw a press conference and no one came? aka faith3
"and you guys can know it well." sad
OYWC#80 you're 1st
why anyone ever gets angry at a press secretary is beyond me...he/she is payed to lie
maybe its because perino just looks so honest that you people get angry at her
look, this gal didnt know what the cuban missle crisis was
she is qualified to do one thing...get on her knees and suck bush's flacid dick...and she does that very well
btw, her career is set...cuz after bush leaves office, shes off to fox to suck lufa boy's flacid dick

Dana is a man baby,take's off mask.I was right it is a man,his name is Jeff Gannon.
When President Bush said "some" he meant Democrats. Barack Obama is a Democrat...and the presumptive Democratic nominee for president Using the transitive property some=democrats=Obama.
Unless you're Dana Perino...or someone else without an understanding of right and wrong...or just a moron who can't read between the lines.

Our beloved President should be asked about Prescott Bush and his family ties to Hitler and the Nazis . Bush is like old grand daddy , a low life criminal , a saboteur and a traitor . The Bush crime family goes way back . If there was any justice and law in this country Bush , Cheney and the whole bunch should be tried for and be convicted of treason among many other things and put in front of a firing squad . Question : I am definitely not a Hillary fan but how can you people connect Clinton to this one ? Is just a bit of a reach don't you think ?
tHeIKnowAHusseinGaMeOfLiFe @ 90:

NishNish @ 93:
Perhaps we look at this woman and see the sewage she wallows in. Surprisingly that does not turn us on.
If the Peroxide Pinhead doesn't know what the Cuban Missile Crisis was, because it happened before she was born (and more importantly, before Reagan was President), then the odds are she doesn't know much about Nazi's either. (Nor can most of the Republican youth movement aware that they're turning into the Nazi party, using many of the same, pre-war tactics to get and hold on to power.)
Good God that woman is hot!
Why is she working for the dark side?
Come over to the good honey, it's ok I'll take good care of you, I promise!
Perino: I understand when you’re running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you — that is not always true and it is not true in this case.
Gee, Dana, I wonder if you could elaborate on who has recently run for office who DOES think the world revolves around them?
Perhaps your boss would be one of them, for he and his supporters think that they, and only they, can prevent another terrorist attack in America.
In the afternoon, the White House thought it best to play dumb.
Dana Perino ain't playing. I've gotta admit, I am so beyond tired of her snotty, valley girl persona. Oh, by the way, Dana, sweetie pie, when Chris Matthews (during his awesome bitch slapping of a second tier reichwing zombie on "Hardball" last night) mentioned in passing a certain White House Press Secretary who didn't even know what the Cuban Missile Crisis was, he was talking about you.
Really Dana, I'll do things to you that Bill O'Reilly would only dream of!
One thought keeps returning to my mind... the OUTRAGE Republicans had over then-candidate Bill Clinton having "spoken ill of the U.S. while overseas".
Dana Perino, so hot, wanna touch the heinne, owwwrrooooooh!
I understand when you’re running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you
Wow, never underestimate the capacity for projection by the GOP.
So who was Mr. Bush talking about then?

behold Lady Haw Haw
She established without a doubt just how shamelessly she could lie in her interview on The Daily Show. She doesn't even break a sweat as she craps out another steaming whopper. Even as she gets flustered, she knows in the end she wins because not enough people pay enough attention to matter. Hers is the torture of the dominatrix as she delights in getting the same agonizing results every time. And she operates in plain sight. She's just as sick as the rest of that criminal bunch (no offense to dominatrixes because that involves actual consent of the partners). Dana might as well be a snatch and grab molestor.
When Perino's not blatantly lying, she's combining words in meaningless, weasely ways. She's really quite inarticulate and can barely string words together into coherent sentences, which helps when you're trying to mislead and confuse people. I think some of the bleach in her hair has seeped through to her brain.

You know Louis XVI (who was a bit of an engineer) actually improved the design of the guillotine, before the revolution?
He was the one who said it would be more efficient with a diagonal blade, instead of a straight one, for better cutting effect. Still needed two chops to behead him though, poor bugger.
And the "Let them eat cake" quote was actually from a spanish princess once upon a time, even though ascribed to his wife.

This should have been said for years in rebuttal.
Comparing us with a long dead Republican suck up to the Nazis? What ever happened to trotting out the fabulous history of Prescott Bush (grand daddy to 43) and his wonderful help in financing the Nazis a bit, plus all that slave labor factory runnin' that he was involved in? HELLO!!! It's in the public record and not a secret!
C'mon, folks... another big deal... NOT... that dilutes the real issues of war, economy, health care, education and infrastructure facing our nation.
GWB's nonsensical speech at the Knesset was pure 'Bush Speak' and as always, highly personalized. In seven years Mr. Bush has not once spoken for the American People. Once again, he speaks for only himself and his cabal. You are either with George W. Bush as, he rakes in millions, or you are against him. America and Americans be damned.
Americans should have realized this self centered, ego-maniacal, lecherous grifter, mother infatuated tit sucking drunken coke addled near-do-well nincompoop was not equipped to lead this nation when he whimpered that one of his reasons for War with Iraq is that "Saddam tried to kill my daddy."

Bush’s cheap and pathetic smear attempt
Cheap, pathetic, and stunningly effective. They're throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks. They're doing it early so they can fine-tune it for the last three months of the campaign. Believe me, BushCo has analysts on it 24/7, their manicured fingers on the pulse of every spookable voter, Republican or Democrat, to see just what memes and themes will put the hand of voting America on the lever of the safe-and-familiar old white soldier-man with the easy name.
And BUSH has nothing to fear from saying just anything that comes into his head. He's a bellwether with only seven months left, and then it's bye-bye America, hola Paraguay. He can dribble feces out of his mouth and smirk--ain't nothin' bad gonna happen to him.

I should think you'd need something more like those corporations who clean up massacre scenes or disasters. Get the stink out.
Why does the news media even attend the press conference???
It is nothing but a propaganda session for Bush/Cheney and the republicans.
It is a fact that all they do is give lies and BS or they said they can not answer the question.
Fact is no one in Bush/Cheney's stolen administration answer any questions about their corruption and when told to by congress Bush say I am the decider and I say "NO".
Didn't grandpa Bush have some dealings with the Nazis? I heard a repub bring up Joe Kennedy on Dan Abrams, so isn't grandpa Bush fair game?
When I say grandpa Bush, I'm not talking about McCain.
Yeah the Dems are appeasers. At least we don't have Saddam Hussein torturing his own people in Abu Gharaib prison...
Master Po @ 99:
Perhaps, but ONLY Bill O'Reilly can do it with falafel.
C'mon people! The real issue should NOT be what Perino said, but the asinine question that was asked. That "journalist" who asked the question knew perfectly well the answer but framed it in such a way as to say, "this wasn't about Obama, right?" What the "journalist" should have asked was something more like, "why would the President of the United States go to foreign soil and denigrate our political process just so people back home would see it?" Isn't what the President said about Obama's foreign policy bordering on treason?" God forbid we hold our journalists up to higher standards. It is maddening.

Al this talk about using a guillotine on the Bush crime family is such nonsense.
It is much too good for them.
A Mussolini-style gutting and hanging from a meathook in a public square would be more educational for future generations of budding Roves.
:)
bush slandering another politico on foreign soil can only boost his favor with peoples in foreign soil. bush is despised elsewhere, as at home. The Knesset hardly holds a view that is dominant the world over..
I'm positive she will be among the ones who will be going to trial along with Bush and his cronies. She might not get as big a sentencing but she won't see the light of day for a long time. That will be very, very nice.
