Ray McGovern, a former CIA official who gave daily intelligence briefings to George H. W. Bush
said "The notion that the head of National Intelligence whispered in Bush's ear 'I've got a surprise for you and it's really important, but I'm not going to tell you about it until we check it out' -- The whole thing is preposterous."
"Preposterous?" Nope, not at all. However, the facts in the reality based community says he knew, not because he asked, but was told about the information.
Biden said "If that's true (that he didn't know), he has the most incompetent staff in modern American history, and he's one of the most incompetent presidents in modern American history."
Well.
New Foreign Policy under Bush,
will be to threaten war against any nation that has the knowledge to build a nuclear bomb regardless of intent, materials or an actual nuclear weapons program. Makes sense to me.
I keep hearing those words, "Impeachment is off the table."
Did the mall shooter get the idea from the UNNECESSARY warning a while back about the terrorists hitting "soft target" shopping malls around X-mas?
Was his weapon a product of the assault ban being allowed to expire?
Did he snap because of the Bush war on the middle class which left him working at McDonalds?
TIKI, probably all of the above, plus no medical insurance to get the help he needed.
Posted by Judith at December 6, 2007 05:20 AMWell I just listened to Mitt's "The Sermon on Account"(of Huckleberry Thin rising in the polls).
What a crock. Mormon mentioned once. If you don't like my religion...tough. More questions raised than answered. No specifics.
And of course, as I'm more than used to by now, nothing in the sermon for us non-Godbots.
He could have at least thanked the Jews for the Mormon founder, Joseph Smith. Come to think of it, wasn't Jesus also a Jew?
Posted by TIKI AL at December 6, 2007 08:25 AMTIKI, I found two gold tablets in my alley dumpster on Monday. Unfortunately, I seem to have misplaced them. Wife 9 is absolutely sure, though Wife 3 disagrees.
Oh, new commandment: though shall not think, except about me. See Vladimir P. for details...
Posted by tempus at December 6, 2007 09:08 AMis it just me, or has Rudy=Bush fallen off the radar the last week or so (since Trystgate emerged). Huckababy is surging everywhere as the Right/Nut Christians frantically grab for someone more like them (and less like a pro-choice womanizer). The Mitt's "I'm a Christian sort of" speech today won't go far in winning votes away from The Baptist Preacher. IF Huck actually wins two of the early primaries and Rudy=Bush finishes far back (as polls currently show), is he done? I'm thinking the Hawk/PNAC wing of the GOP doesn't feel real comfortable turning over their Oil Empire to the Huck.

It says, "Get down to 2 billion people on my planet or else. Don't even think about anything else."
A little later it says, "Save my whales."
Yassuh, God.

And In The News
Republican Perzidential candidate Mike Huckster has just announced that he has asked asked Oscar and Nobel-nominated actress Paris Hilton to be his vice-perzident. The Hilton camp is said to be asking for the Iraqi rights to thong underwear, an apparently untapped market.

No wonder you're not serving peter.
Peter, I see that that you're still an idiot. Good on ya, Repig spokespig that you are. It must be getting lonely explaining the blatant lies and general ignorance of the current administration.
Posted by tempus at December 6, 2007 11:33 AMGood Gawd, my keyboard has taken on a life of its own, and repeats (repeats) words. Hmm...
