Now watch this drive...
Criminey...

Here's how President Bush ended his brief meeting with reporters yesterday at the Crawford Ranch, which began with his statement that he feels really, really bad about the whole tsunami tragedy.

Some eunuch ball licker from the gathered reporters asked Bush if he had any New Year's resolutions. A compassionate man at that point might have said something about resolving to help the countries through this crisis.

A wise man may have said he was going to reach out more to others who are across the political aisle. There's a million things he could have said. Instead, he decided to take a giant shit on the statement of sympathy he had just given: "I'll let you know. Already gave you a hint on one, which is my waistline. I'm trying to set an example."

Huh... you would've thought sending Neil Bush would've made more sense, what with his experience with Asian affairs.

Ow
Like a jerk I went outside wearing mocs to get something out of the truck, and I went down faster than a godless liberal on a Gays Gone Wild! video. I slipped on some ice on the driveway and fell flat on my back. And the back of my head. I'm going back to lie down some more.

WWJD?
Amount Bush has set aside for his inauguration events: $30-40 Million

Amount Bush has pledged to for the Asian Tsunami relief efforts: $35 Million

Tsunami death toll rockets to 114,000
Preznit Bush told waiting reporters, "I don't know who this Sue Nami is but she will be tracked down and brought to justice just like we did with Osama."

Ethics are for losers!
Party of Jebus, moral values and integrity to make ethics inquiries harder to begin.

In the wake of back-to-back ethics slaps at sleezoid House majority leader, Tom DeLay, House rethugs are preparing to make it more difficult to initiate ethics investigations and could remove the Republican chairman who presided over the admonishments of the slimy, lying dickhole last fall.

Greatest country on planet shafts its own citizens in wake of horrific disaster
Penniless American tsunami victims refused new passports from US officials until they cough up some money.

Faye Wachs said she was impressed by the efforts of the Thai government and the International Committee for the Red Cross, but "she was appalled at the treatment they got" from the U.S. government.

It took the couple three hours, she said, to find the officials from the American consulate, who were in the VIP lounge.

Because they had lost all their possessions, including their documentation, they had to have new passports issued.

But the U.S. officials demanded payment to take the passport pictures, Helen Wachs said.

The couple had managed to hold on to their ATM card, so they paid for the photos and helped other Americans who did not have any money get their pictures taken and buy food, Helen Wachs said.

"She was really very surprised" that the government did so little to ease their ordeal, she said.

Damn

Tsunami death toll rises to 76,700, could top 100,000.

"We will prevail over this destruction," Bush said from his Texas playground in his first comments since the disaster struck on Sunday. The president called on Americans to donate cash to relief organizations, as he also called on corporate and individual donors to contribute as much as $250,000 apiece to his corona record $40 million-plus inauguration-spectacle on January 20th.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has vowed to "tie the Senate into procedural knots" if kitten kevorkian/douchebag Bill Frist tries to change the filibuster rule.

Fun fact: the repukes, as always, are talking out their ass over alleged Democratic 'obstruction': The Senate has already confirmed 204 of Bush's nominees. Of the 20 whom the uniter smirking buttwad intends to renominate, seven made it to the Senate floor before they were shitcanned for being extremist kkk/Puritan symps.

The grinning idiot was clearing brush, bicycling, and criticizing President Clinton as the rest of the planet called for aid and support for this "humanitarian catastrophe of epic proportions."

Some foreign policy specialists said Bush's actions and words both communicated a lack of urgency about an event that will loom as large in the collective memories of several countries as the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks do in the United States.

"When that many human beings die -- at the hands of terrorists or nature -- you've got to show that this matters to you, that you care," said Leslie Gelb, president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations.

Even some administration officials familiar with relief efforts said they were surprised that Bush had not appeared personally to comment on the tsunami tragedy. "It's kind of freaky," a senior career official said. "But then again, look at who we're dealing with here."

Money for nothing
Priorities

Eric Alterman reminds us that "we’re devoting less than half of what Bush is planning to spend on his own inauguration to helping people recover from one of the worst natural disasters in human history."

59, 000.

50,000
That's 50,000 known dead.

God, I'm lame.

Geebers, it's cold.

Well, we're back. Hope everyone had a good Christmas! Mine was cool - mom had drugged the old man until he was pretty cheerful, the food and company were good, everyone seemed to like their presents, and I got a couple of neat toys, including the Star Wars trilogy, the ROTK extended gift set, and the Millennium first season DVDs.

I also got Photoshop, and I've been trying most of the morning to get a picture of the Loch Ness monster into the photo I took at Castle Urquart a few years ago.

Heh.

Thanks and happy holidays from WTF!
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.

Through the years
We all will be together,
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough!
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

- Ralph Blane and Hugh Martin, 1943.

Meet the stenographers
Why George aWol Bush has gotten away with so many #ucking lies.

Press a bunch of asskissing whores shirks duty to scrutinize official claims, the Duh Institute reports.

[F]rom the Iraq War to the 2004 presidential race, reporters shirked their journalistic duty to take a critical approach to official and partisan claims - to document them when they are true, and debunk them when they are false. Indeed, many journalists have become little more than stenographers, repeating whatever they are told without question.

"The next time the administration insists that chocolate is vanilla, much of the media - fearing accusations of liberal bias, trying to create the appearance of "balance" - won't report that the stuff is actually brown; at best they'll report that some Democrats claim that it's brown." - Paul Krugman.
