This past Friday, Dick Cheney said that “Donald Rumsfeld is the best Secretary of Defense we have ever had”. So if he is the “best” then why did Bush fire him? This is a serious question that must be asked. Either Dick Cheney lied to his audience, and the American people, OR George Bush has […]
On the same day that the Iraq Study Group offered its assessment on the deteriorating conditions in the Middle East, former Secretary of State Colin Powell called the conflict a civil war, joining a growing chorus of those who eschew the more benign-sounding “sectarian violence” terminology preferred by the Bush administration. “It looks like, smells […]
Reuters is reporting this on the news of Bolton’s resignation: “Despite the support of a strong bipartisan majority of senators, Ambassador Bolton’s confirmation was blocked by a Democrat filibuster, and this is a clear example of the breakdown in the Senate confirmation process,” [Dana] Perino said. Now at last check, the Bolton nomination was till […]
The right-wing blogosphere is in meltdown over the loss of their beloved John Bolton. Redstate: The good news just keeps on coming these days. John Bolton has tendered his resignation, and President Bush has “reluctantly” accepted it. I admit to a little frustraton with Mr. Bush on this; while I know confirming Mr. Bolton in […]
TPMmuckraker: Ah, the Man with the Iron Mustache is leaving the international arena — but not before attempting a thoroughly embarrassing and wholly unsympathetic maneuver. Less than two weeks before the White House announced his resignation, Ambassador John Bolton’s U.N. mission blocked an effort to celebrate the end of slavery in our hemisphere. I thought […]
Look at what they are doing just because a comedian said Mehlman was gay. It is funny how Ann Coulter can go on television and call Clinton and Gore fags, yet Bill Maher says that Mehlman is gay and that can’t be allowed to happen. It sure sounds like the RNC is out to cover this up. Perhaps more reporters should […]
On Michelle Malkin’s other blog “Hot Air”, this is appearing on the front page: Well here is how good that is: President George W. Bush will make a push to get confirmation for John Bolton as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations before power in Congress shifts to the Democrats, the White House said on […]
MSNBC Just reported that Haggard has admitted to buying crystal meth. Now considering he was so close with the White House and had weekly meetings there, and that George Bush has a history of using cocaine, could it be that there was some fun going on in the White House? Considering the White House has […]
This was rather big news yesterday: Some Republican strategists are increasingly upset with what they consider the overconfidence of President Bush and his senior advisers about the midterm elections November 7-a concern aggravated by the president’s news conference this week. “They aren’t even planning for if they lose,” says a GOP insider who informally counsels […]
This weekend amazed me. During all the talk shows hardly a word was mention about the resignation of Susan Ralston. Instead all focus was on the Foley scandal yet again. Ralston’s resignation is equally, if not more, important than Foleygate. Ralston was Karl Rove’s top aide. You could say she was to Karl Rove what […]
