Sen. Martinez Calls Out Dick Cheney’s Lie On Oil Drilling Off Coast Of Cuba
Just about 30 minutes ago Faux was parroting Cheney's lies as a factual statement regarding Oil Drilling Off Coast Of Cuba. Anyone surprised?
Bush the Warmonger trying to change his persona in the 11th hour.
The World know bush for what he is, too much has happened for them to forget the one outstanding fact.
He is not a cowboy, he's an idiot.
In regards to Happy Valley and the Warmonger rep.
The Cowboy left the barn door open, all the horses are running wild, the fox is in the hen house and his shotgun is in Iraq.
I’d say he left the Ranch in Ruins.
Repost from the last comment page, sorry...
Bangkok-Bob♠ in Chiang Mai…
Don’t you love being a news junkie in Thailand with most cable companies running nothing but Fox News? You can’t help but end up watching Fox and Friends or O’Really.
I’m in Cambodia right now, so I get CNN. It’s not much, but at least I can watch one episode of the Daily Show a week.

And yet his fan-base still idolizes him as the penultimate cowboy-Texan. How he compares to real men is beyond me.
Hey Mike Christin Hardin Smith has a rip roaring piece over at FDL on Fisa and McCains telecom posse. Can not link from this computer
displaced @ 5:
They all fell in love with the tough talking cowboy with "swagger."
I call it Bushback Mountain.
displaced @ 5:
Hate to split hairs her but I think he's an idiot cheerleader that wants to be a cowboy. Or is that with a cowboy?
Also Emptywheel over at FDL continues to spit nails about so many critical issues it is tough to keep up. Both she and Bmaz and all of the incredibly insightful big brains over there keep us up on the details of the telecom issues, habeus, Phase II and so much more. If you want to learn go there and just breath it in.
I know I tag along over there from the peasant class.
Kathleen @ 6:
Here it is
Isaac @ 7:
One of the big brains over at fdl's emptywheels blog described Bush as a "drugstore cowboy fascist" this morning. I would like to add "a yellow bellied chickenhawk" to boot.
would like to see a bunch of cowboys and cowgirls protest against Bush using their image.
Cow folk against the Bush regime!

thanks partner

HA HA ... (McDumb) who the hell am I ???

Yeh, I was just reading about this. Cheney says he heard about it from George Will. It's getting hard to know who's enabling who. This administration are masters of disinformation. The lines between reality and politics have blurred beyond distinction. i.e. Mike Huckabee has just been hired by FOX News.
theWalrus @ 14:
The fake outrage by faux was pretty funny. Sadly, their pathetic and lazy audience will accept these lies as facts and will parrot them over and over and over.....
If I am being repetitive to something Crooks and Liars has all ready done this week I apologize. But if folks have not all ready done so may I suggest calling Congressman Kucinich and saying Thank you Thank you for reading the ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT this week. Thank you Congressman Kucinch for doing what Pelosi, Reid, Hoyer and Rahm Emmanuel are too chicken shit to do. Stand up for the constitution and the rule of law by impeaching Bush and/or Cheney for their endless list of crimes. We are doing all we can. Will they?
CALL CONGRESSMAN KUCINICH light up those lines with calls for truth and justice. Kucinich has and continues to do so
Call 202-225-5871 blow out those circuits with your calls. Let those other chicken shits know that you support Kucinich's efforts
FYI
Kucinich is on www.democracynow.org

but he clears brush! so well!
and mcArmPitSniffer likes him so much!
what's not to love?
*deftly contained snark ruined by fingers trembling in anger*
Thanks for the link. Not to be all cynical and stuff, but does anybody think that yesterday's Supreme Court ruling will change anything? Not to the unitary executive!
Why is Bush traveling the world? Fire in CA, Flooding in Iowa, rising gas prices. If the world leaders want to see, have them fly here. Meanwhile, we are footing the tab so this so-called leader can try to repair his tarnished image. Give me a break.
P.D. @ 20:
His Last free European Vacation. Once he's out of office he'll never be able to leave U.S. soil. Too many countries want him for War Crimes.
earl @ 17:
...followed by Bugiosi:
"... I will not be satisfied til I see him (Bu$H) in an American courtroom being prosecuted for murder .."
Awesome!
Bugliosi ...
After all the damage done by Taylor Marsh during the primary, I hate seeing a link on here to her site.
Bangkok, you may be right. I hear rumors that Bush and Chaney and the BlackWater Guy are buying property in Paraguy. I wonder ifit's true, or just bunk.
Kathleen @ 16:
good thought, thanks, i'll call now
and, thank you Rep. Kucinich, for everything.
♠Bangkok-Bob♠ in Chiang Mai @ 21:
Actually, the Bush administration has been secretly cutting deals with other country *not* to prosecute them for war crimes. I'm sure Bush is bringing this up with various leaders as he travels the world one last time.
P.D. @ 25:
it sure would be fitting
"Then the rumors began appearing in the Latin American press: The United States was moving to establish a military base at Mariscal Estigarribia, a town in Paraguay just 124 miles from Bolivia’s southeast frontier and within easy striking distance of Bolivian natural gas reserves, the largest in the Americas. Anywhere from 400 to 500 U.S. troops were said to be arriving."

Everyone out there that is bitter and angry about this administration needs to send an email to Pat Buchanan and let him know that Obama spoke the truth about how Americans are feeling!
Just another old white man who doesn't get it!

And thanks to The Center for Constitutional Rights.
We all owe them a debt of gratitude.
Nice to see Marsh rejoining the reality-based community. I read at Balloon Juice that Sinclair just booked a room at the National Press Club facilities, as most everyone is free to do, not that they had invited him. But regardless, Sinclair shouldn't be given the time of day by anyone in the press.
This is the first time I've been moved to comment, but I think everyone should know:
I followed the link to Taylor Marsh's site, and while she tried valiantly to moderate the discussion in the comments, so much bias in general was showed by people who find shelter under the "big tent" party, I was as nauseated as when I venture into the Freeper comments. I'm so depressed I'm taking the rest of the afternoon off, and going to the bar.
Barry isn't my first choice, but he is our candidate. Calling him a Muslim in effort to smear is wrong, no matter what your religion is. I cry for the state of our party, and our country (not a nation). Our tent can exclude these racist, conspiracy-loving, small-minded shut-ins.
Some of those people are so truly out of line, it's an embarrassment - I'm hurt and ashamed to call myself a Democrat. It is truly time for some housecleaning. We cannot be afraid of shaming our supposed brethren into line, or shutting their opinions out. This behavior is unacceptable, and we need to establish some boundaries.
