2. Dont you listen to Crashcart?
The war is in its "last throes".

I wonder how that crook says the things he does with a straight face.

25. No, no, no; the insurgency is in its last throes...
Cheney's war will go on and on, and they'll find another reason for one. Too much money to be made. Cheney doesn't want to mislead us into thinking the troops can come home, etc, just because iraq isn't as bad as it was last week.

24. I agree - they're too vindictive and insane to go down quietly...
I have a feeling that if it becomes clear to them that their run is over, they are going to take a lot of us with them. :scared:

11. But they've got
the media in the meantime to coverup their clusterf*ck. That's all they care about. Thr Chimperor even said so when he mentioned one time that we'll all be dead when his history is written.
The souless, evil non-dead of this administration are all about getting their payoff in the moment.

:hi: Hi there DZ. How have you been?

I'm doing just fine, bluedeminredstate. It's good to see your posts here at the DU. We've been through a lot together, huh?

:hi:

17. I thought 2000
would break my heart. If it wasn't for the Sox winning The World Series, 2004 would have killed me!!!

Mostly belonging to children, with viscera. FUGWB, and the syphillis ridden sheep you rode in on.

7. Their itty bitty heads do seem to be in a spin,
don't they? They just keep getting uglier and uglier. Only the rabid wingnuts can understand them, huh?

WE'RE ALL LIBERALS NOW!

18. "shot its wad"
My parents used to argue about the horrible language my Mom used after she started working with Brits in Saudi. The "wad" thing was especially probelmatic for my dad.

My brother told him it was a reference to the one-shot muskets that had to have wadding and gun powder loaded to shoot the musket ball. It wasn't a sex thing until later. :blush:


(attention would be flamers. this is not an attack on British bachelors living in Saudi Arabia during the 70's!)

22. Love the cats winking.
When I saw the show, I was glad it confirmed what my brother said. He's sort of a walking encyclopedia.

23. We're seeing the "last throes"
of the Rovian brilliance. This is what happens when you get so out of touch with the shifting moods of Americans. This is the result of too many vetted audiences. Too much control over who has access. You lose the emotional context of the country. You're surrounded by the true believers. And you don't realize the former adherents are drifting away. They're under-employed. They still don't have health care. They're worried about their future. Their children's future. Gas prices are breaking the family budget. And Rove comes up with Bush standing in front of soldiers at Fort Bragg.
Just to highlight the abysmal mess of Iraq.
They're on the other side now.
Sliding down.
All the fancy banners and staged events won't save them now. Not even the infamous infomercials sent to the networks. (paid for by us). Or the secretly paid columnists.
Not even Jeff Gannon Guckert.
You're right, Cat.
They're flaccid.

27. Yep! They are parading out their "big guns" who are shooting themselves
in the foot. If we weren't in such dire straights this would be funny to me.

28. I do think the country is waking up
we're getting nothing but bad news, and all of Bush's frauds are becoming major news headlines.
