the Rovian Sausage grinder

“The less the people know of how laws and sausages are made, the better!”

The pretender is caught, Rove and company fingered, complicit in the political categorization of US Attorneys along with their subsequent (and more importantly RESULTANT) firing or promotion.

The bankruptsey of their analysis is laid bare by two results

1) Mary Beth Buchanan is a wonderful US Attorney, deserving of special assignments and praise.

2) Patrick Fitzgerald sucks and is next in line to be fired, except that it would be so stunningly obvious it would get the attention of the residents of the United States of Amnesia.

Despite 34 Clinton administration officials giving sworn, non-scripted, C-Span recorded testimony on everything from travel gate to blowjobs, the pResident thought him self entitled to distorted and ahistorical powers; as the WashPost characterized:

”The White House limited the kinds of questions the aides would answer and said the interviews may not be conducted under oath or transcribed, Bush signaled a willingness to go to the courts if necessary to prevent his aides from giving public testimony. He described his plan for private interviews as reasonable”

The pResident re-enforced his petulance with this Rovian terd:

“Members of Congress now face a choice: whether they will waste time and provoke an unnecessary confrontation, or whether they will join us in working to do the people's business. We have many important issues before us. So we need to put partisan politics aside and come together to enact important legislation for the American people.”

So, we need to go along with his pornographic notion of executive power, or we are obstructionist jaggoffs?

I have a 4 word reply for that:

F*#% You, Mr President

Except that in the present circumstance, I find the utterance of “Mr. President” obscene.

What is reality?

King George

The Bush administration is taking on the appearance of a crack dealer caught in the headlights of a police car at the terminus of a dead end alley.

“We were never politics…those democrats are politics with their political subpoenas. I offered the truth, they want to play politics, those ahhhh POLITICIANS!!”

34 separate appearances, under oath, before congress by CLINTON administration officials will be ignored.

Republicans are good honorable patriotic Jesus worshipers. While Democrats are politicians who want to bother the freedom fighter likes of Karl Rove and Harriet Myers with pesky questions after swearing on the HOLY BIBLE as if they would ever tell a lie!

No wonder King George the prevaricator gave a speech to that great gathering of constitutional scholars; the American people, the same bunch of Einstein’s that RE-elected him.

Not all is complaint

Being as complaint is the mainstay of this screed, I relish the occaisional opportunity to speak of the pleasant surprises of life.
Had to fix a problem with the computer, so I called up the 800 # at the "major" computer company, a technically proficient young lady patiently listened to my long winded report of symptoms, reccomemded reloading a driver, which fixed it. To top it off, the phone center was in that sweltering, low tax, right-to-work state called Ontario!
A local political windbag (Jim Roddy) was recently saying that Pittsburgh must follow the lead of right-to-work states to attract jobs, resulting in me screeming at the TV "you mean a right-to-work state like Ontario? like Toyota just did?

When the health care costs more than the steel in a car, "socialized medicine" is looking like a good deal to industry.

The excellent blog “Simply left behind” has apparently caught some flack for making (what I thought was) a grand slam point about the shallowness of the media.

It seems the Dianne sawyers of the world have been wagging about some young lady who was a contestant on American idol, having some photos of a “pornographic nature” about. I guess the 5th estate has nothing better to watchdog these days than the morals of a person who can’t sing well, are we expecting Miss America here?

The same wags can be relied upon to miss stories about tons of missing YELLOWCAKE URANIUM from the DR Congo; they didn’t even pick up on the ironic time twist with the scooter Libby verdict (what did that start with again?)

Soo… Carl, the writer of said blog threw down the gauntlet and said essentially “here is the big distraction” and published the (naughty) picture with the caption “whatshername at the microphone”(3 guesses as to what the microphone is and the first 2 don’t count)

I thought it was great (check his comments) but I guess he took some heat

People are allergic to the truth.
