Possibly more disturbing than yesterday's "Charlie Crist sex tape" is the thought of a whacked-out Wolf Blitzer, sitting in a corner drooling to himself and humming the cool part of "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida," or worse, stumbling about with some scary-ass leer on his phiz, looking to get laid.

Epic pwnage of rightwingnut bloggers by WWII vet

The beautiful smackdown of snivelling, basement-dwelling subhumans, whose closest contact with fighting is trying to get their bags of Doritos open with only one hand:

[A] remarkable exchange between the conservative bloggers at Sweetness & Light and Ray Kitchell, who served with the 89th Infantry Division:

From: Steve Gilbert

Subject: Any Record Of Charles W Payne?

Mr. Kitchell,

As you may have heard by now, Barack Obama has claimed that his great uncle Charlie Payne was a member of the 89th Div that liberated Buchenwald.

According to records his full name is either Charles W Payne or Charles T Payne (most likely the former), and he was born in 1924 — and he is still alive today.

He most likely was from Kansas at the time of enlistment.

Do you have any record of this gentleman?

Thank you,
Steve Gilbert

PS - If you go to my website, you will see that I was probably the first to note the error in Mr. Obama’s first claims about his “uncle.”

And the response:

Please crawl back under the rock you came out from.

Good day.

McClellan disputes 'disgruntled' label

"Disappointed, disillusioned, despairing, even disgusted maybe, but not disgruntled, says former White House spokes-tool Scott McClellan, gruntling.

Bonus: "The explosive reaction to the new memoir by Scott McClellan prompted his publisher to allow sales of the book several days ahead of the original publication date," the NY Times reports. Suck it, pukes.

Say it ain't so, you fucking douche

Eric Alterman has had it with the hypocritical neocon WATB:

Though he ran as an "independent Democrat" and bragged of his deep connection to traditional Democratic interest groups, [insufferable vichycrat Joe] Lieberman has finally come out of his private closet as a right-wing Republican, not merely endorsing John McCain for President but embracing virtually every accusation against Barack Obama that Republican operatives can manufacture. {snip}

Wait--it gets better. At a time when many Lieberman supporters worry incessantly about the rise of anti-Semitism they perceive in American political life, Lieberman--acting undoubtedly out of cravenness rather than ideological sympathy--has lent aid and comfort to some egregious anti-Semites.

McClellan blames Bush, not aides

"I believed in that lying little fucker!" the former WH press secretary almost said in interviews, sobbing.

Scott McClellan has made it clear that it was Preznit Honor 'n' Integritude and "not the high-profile aides around him who left him most disillusioned in the run-up to the Iraq War," the Duh! journal reports.

Suh-nap!

John "Iranian al-Qaidists are training Shiites" McBush: "Obama only visiting Iraq once shows how little he understands about Iraq."

Barack Obama: "It's funny that the guy who swallowed all of the misadministration's propaganda hook, line, sinker and ... ahem ... rod, would lecture me about the war":

“On the day after the former White House press secretary conceded that the Bush administration used deception and propaganda to take us to war, it seems odd that Senator McCain, who bought the flawed rationale for war so readily, would be lecturing others on their depth of understanding about Iraq,” Obama spokesman Bill Burton said.

“Senator Obama challenged the President's rationale for the war from the start, warning that it would divert resources from Afghanistan and the pursuit of Al Qaeda and mire us in an endless civil war. Senator McCain stubbornly insists on pursuing the failed Bush policy that continues to cost so much, while Senator Obama believes it's time to begin a deliberate, careful strategy to remove our troops and compel the Iraqis to take responsibility for their own future.”

Stupid: The RNC is now actually keeping a clock on their website to count the days since Obama last stepped foot in Iraq.

A pity they seem less concerned about tracking how many troops have died there.

Here's a pic of the last time McNuts was there: helmeted, armored, heavily escorted, and surrounded by so many pieces of artillery that his phalanx of snipers would have been in danger of friendly-fire ricochets had they been forced to actually shoot anyone.

OMG OMG OMG !

Corpulent antichrist Karl Rove levels the ultimate insult on Scott McClellan:

"First of all this doesn’t sound like Scott, it really doesn’t, not the Scott McClellan I known for a long time. Second of all, it sounds like somebody else, it sounds like a left wing blogger."
In other words, he's telling the truth, I guess.

Catapulting the propaganda

Crooks & Liars has a piece up on the media's complicity in acting as “deferential enablers of the administration’s propaganda leading up to the war." It's enough to make you hurl. But this is the part that got to me (emphasis mine):

[Katie] Couric admits that mistakes were made and that she could have done a better job vetting the administration’s claims; although she also admitted that the White House threatened to cut off her access after she filed critical reports.

So, what? Do you go after the story anyway and tell your audience that it may be the last piece you do because the Bush junta has promised to shitcan you? Or do you just roll over like a good little lapdog? Uh-huh. Right. Yeah, we all know what happened.

From a great piece by Glenn Greenwald:

Perish the thought that journalists should be adversarial to our political officials, challenge what they say or point out when they're lying. Instead, their job is merely to pose polite questions, let political officials say what they want in response, and then go home -- just as Charlie Gibson said. This is why most establishment journalists will never be convinced that they failed to do their job, no matter how much evidence is presented: because of the understanding they have of what "their job" actually is. If anything, by Gibson's understanding of what they're supposed to be doing, they did their job brilliantly, by letting Bush officials go on their shows and -- as Cheney aide Cathy Martin said about what happens when they went on Tim Russert -- "allow[ing Bush officials] to control the message."

And from Politico:

"The press corps was under enormous pressure from corporate executives, frankly, to make sure that this was a war presented in a way that was consistent with the patriotic fever in the nation and the president's high approval ratings," [CNN's Jessica] Yellin said.

Fucking sheep. They have less balls than Jeff Gannon.

Hopalong Crackhead says country must not lose its nerve in his unneccessary war

Preznit GameBoy, happily meeting with a group of future targets graduating from the US Air Force Academy, said Wednesday that rebuilding Iraq and Afghanistan is 'proving difficult as the wars rage on,' and, what -- six years into the war in Iraq and seven in Afghanistan? -- "we're learning as we go."

Awesome. You'll be learning. They'll be getting shot at.

Yet Bush's words were vastly overshadowed by those of the man who once spoke for him, Scott McClellan, the former WH mouthpiece.

Stunning the White House, the disloyal America-hating Islamocommiedefeatohomofascist and possible secret left-wing blogger wrote in a new book that Bush favored propaganda over honesty in selling the war to the public.

McClellan's scathing account, and the dominant news coverage it received, put Bush's latest defense of war in a new context.
Duh.

Promises, promises

House Judiciary Committee: we'll arrest Rove if the corpulant scumwad refuses to appear.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) said that the House Judiciary Committee would be willing to arrest Karl Rove if Satan's porcine handmaiden doesn't testify about his role in the firing of nine U.S. attorneys in 2006.

Wasserman Schultz, in an interview Tuesday, said that Rove would not be allowed to invoke executive privilege to avoid testifying, since he said he did not have conversations with Preznit LawnOrnament about the firings.

Asked by MSNBC host Dan Abrams if the committee would go far as having Rove arrested, Wasserman said it would.

"Well, if that's what it takes," she said. "I mean we really cannot allow the the legislative branch to be trampled upon by the executive branch. We are co-equals, and this is an administration that essentially has ignored and disrespected the role of the legislative branch for far too long. We will have our revenge. Oh yes."
(Slightly paraphrased)

Charlie Crist's sex tape

Jebus Crist. Yuk. There's four words you hoped never to see together. Now that the not-gay gay governor (G-Ay) is on McNuts' VP list, the Family Values party is pulling out all the stops to make him more palatable. And not just to gay men, either.

GOP dirty trickster Roger Stone is quietly peddling a so-called "Charlie Crist sex tape." And no, it is not a tape of Crist having sex with a guy. In fact, it isn't even X-rated... The video [of the not-gay gay Crist kissing some broad* in an elevator] was seemingly staged to kill the rumors that Crist is gay.

As for Crist's purported girlfriend -- presuming it is the same one he took as his date to the White House Correspondents Dinner in DC a few weeks ago -- she's still married (and not to Crist).

Great idea! So instead of a Godless homo, he's an adulterous horndog banging someone's else's wife! What great thinking! That'll really help swing over those discontented evangelicals!


*Unless the "woman" in the vid is really a guy in drag.

Ex-spokeswad of honor an' integritude misadministration making friends all over

Scott McClellan should be compelled to testify before a congressional committee regarding the allegations made in his book about the Bush misadministration, says U.S. Rep. Robert Wexler.

“The admissions made by Scott McClellan are earth-shattering and allege facts to establish that Karl Rove and Scooter Libby - and possibly Vice President Cheney - conspired to obstruct justice by lying about their role in the Plame-Wilson matter and that the Bush administration deliberately lied to the American people in order to take us to war in Iraq,” Wexler said in a statement.

“Scott McClellan must now appear before the House Judiciary Committee under oath to tell Congress and the American people how President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Karl Rove, Scooter Libby, and White House officials deliberately orchestrated a massive propaganda campaign to sell the war in Iraq to the American people."

New outrage over at RimJob's, LGF, and other rightwingnut media sites: evidently, everything Scott said in the book is now suspect because it was published by ... bum bum bum!...

The Bush White House and their culture of deception

And the big story today, former White House Press-tool Scott McClellan blasts Il DuceBag, his handlers and enablers -- especially Satan's porcine handmaiden Karl Rove -- and the supine White House press corpse.

One of his charges? That the lying aWol McWarMonkey deceived the country and relied on propaganda to sell his war in Iraq:

[T]he Iraq war was sold to the American people with a sophisticated and aggressive political propaganda campaign led by pResident Evil and aimed at "manipulating sources of public opinion" and "downplaying the major reason for going to war."

Now he tells us moron-America.

Scott McClellan writes in a surprisingly scathing memoir to be published next week that [Tipsy McStaggers] “veered terribly off course,” was not “open and forthright on Iraq,” and took a “permanent campaign approach” to governing at the expense of candor and competence.

“If anything, the national press corps was probably too deferential to the White House and to the administration in regard to the most important decision facing the nation during my years in Washington, the choice over whether to go to war in Iraq."

“History appears poised to confirm what most Americans today have decided: that the decision to invade Iraq was a serious strategic blunder. No one, including me, can know with absolute certainty how the war will be viewed decades from now when we can more fully understand its impact. What I do know is that war should only be waged when necessary, and the Iraq war was not necessary.”

“The collapse of the administration’s rationales for war, which became apparent months after our invasion, should never have come as such a surprise. … In this case, the ‘liberal media’ didn’t live up to its reputation. If it had, the country would have been better served.”

Swell. No fucking kidding. Maybe if he had any conscience whatsoever he would've brought this stuff up years ago. Anyhoo, read more here. And here, as Snott reveals he first became aware of Preznit Honor an' Integritude's habit of lying when the stories of his wild, cocaine-fueled party days came out -- and the Codpieced Cowpuke said he couldn't remember.

A disgruntled misadministration replies --

"Scott, we now know, is disgruntled about his experience at the White House," current press-tool Dana Peroxide said in a statement. "For those of us who fully supported him, we are puzzled. It is sad — this is not the Scott we knew. The one we knew was a pussy-assed milquetoast entirely lacking in spunk and decency, one we would never consider retaliating against on all the news and talk shows, thereby destroying him and his family."
(Slightly paraphased for clarity).

Well, better late than never, Snotty. Heckuva job!



Update: the rethugs are all over CNN right now trashing him. Quelle surprise.

Holocaust Museum, people with functioning cerebral cortexes to rethugs: FU and STFU

According to the US Holocaust Museum, Senator Obama's uncle's Infantry Division not only liberated Buchenwald -- it was one of the first Nazi concentration camps liberated by US troops in all of Germany.

An AmericaBlog letter to the editor:

"Anne Frank died at Bergen-Belsen, and 7 of my family members died at Dachau. I personally don't give a damn that Obama confused Buchenwald and Auschwitz, I'm personally glad that Obama's uncle, and his American/European/and yes, Soviet allies got there and put an end to it before the Nazis (and their "appeasers") were able to kill, by cyanide or bullet to the head, one more innocent person.

"Turning this into a political football is reprehensible, and as the daughter and granddaughter of Jews who currently reside in Florida, I can tell you that this jockeying is sickening to watch. And from the limited sample I have, it isn't doing the RNC any favors (I don't know if its hurting them, but it sure as hell isn't helping)."

The LA Times:

What's worse, Obama's apparent gaffe or the RNC pouncing on a Holocaust-related historical mistake for political advantage?

The Bush/McBush fundraiser that wasn't

Well, there was one, but you won't hear about it from Straight Talking McMaverick --

The pair will be seen together before TV cameras only fleetingly, at the airport as Mr. Bush departs on Air Force One, and there are no plans for either to formally say anything. […]

A senior adviser to Sen. McCain said the campaign considered the risk of having the candidate appear with the president at all but concluded there was no way to avoid it given that the event was in Sen. McCain’s home state.

Sen Obama:

"Today, John McCain is having a different kind of meeting. He’s holding a fundraiser with George Bush behind closed doors in Arizona. No cameras. No reporters. And we all know why. Sen. McCain doesn’t want to be seen, hat in hand, with the president whose failed policies he promises to continue for another four years."

Whoa! LOL

"Libertarians Nominate Bob Barr, Thrice-Married Author of Defense of Marriage Act"
From the article:
As a Republican candidate for the House in 1994, he rose to national attention when reports alleged that he had licked whipped cream off the breasts of two women at a charity event.

As a congressman from Georgia, the thrice-married Barr returned attention to the whipped-cream episode when, speaking in support of the Defense of Marriage Act [DOMA], he argued that “the flames of self-centered morality are licking at the very foundations of our society.”

Longtime Bush/McBush rumpswab still supporting bigoted Nazi-loving psycho:

During a banquet at CUFI's 2007 convention, I watched with astonishment as Lieberman strode to the stage, then compared Hagee to Moses:

"I want to take to opportunity to describe Pastor Hagee in the terms the Torah used to describe Moses," Lieberman declared. "He is an Ish Elohim. A man of God. And those words really do fit him. And I have something else," the senator continued. "Like Moses, he's become the leader of a mighty multitude. Even greater than the multitude that Moses led from Egypt to the Promised Land."

OK, that was then. Or was it...? --

Senator Joseph Lieberman is scheduled to headline Pastor John Hagee's 2008 Christians United For Israel Washington-Israel Summit this July 22...

Honor and integrity.


Oh yes.

Fun fact: as Ben Smith explains,

Hagee’s commitment to Israel, however, is itself controversial: It’s rooted in the belief that the Jewish state will — soon — be the site of Armageddon.

Hagee, who leads the evangelical group Christians United for Israel, is a proponent of U.S. aid and support for Israel, and he is a major ally of Israeli conservatives who reject any “land for peace” formula in dealing with the Palestinians. But Hagee is viewed with distrust by some Jews and Israelis because his brand of Christian Zionism closely links support for Israel to the end of the world and the conversion of the Jews to Christianity.


Giving douches a bad name.

Valley Boy war deserter's photo-op at Arlington

Better known as "Dead Troops Remembered By President Who Had Them Killed."

The Snivelling Chimp marked his last Memorial Day holiday in office Monday ... ahhhh! Praise Jeebus! ... urging Americans to honor the military, unlike his own AWOL, war-deserting ass that lied his way into war with Iraq. Disgusting. Bonus: he called the dead "awesome" while almost chugging a bottle of YooHoo.

''On this Memorial Day, I stand before you as the commander in chief and try to tell you how proud I am,'' aWol McWarMonkey told an audience at Arlington National Cemetery. Of the men and women buried in the cemetery, he said, ''They're an awesome bunch of people and the United States is blessed to have such citizens.''

That provoked a standing ovation from the crowd. ''Whoo-hoo!'' shouted one moron, who couldn't contain her enthusiasm.

Bush was at the White House through 3 p.m., the time he asked Americans to pause for a moment to remember the fallen. Then, he went to a Secret Service training facility in Beltsville, Md., just outside Washington, to ride his mountain bike for about 90 minutes.
What a Sacrificer! Dickwad. 

In other Bush news, Sen. McSame insisted we need to stay in Iraq another 100 years or something.

Meanwhile, 2 US soldiers were killed and 2 others wounded in Iraq this weekend.

Wow. Just ... wow.

Jeff Feldman at HuffPo:

When we hear such "jokes" about assassinating a member of the Senate--a member of our government--we do not laugh, but instead wonder. We wonder what has happened to broadcast media in our country. We wonder to ourselves, to our families, and to our friends: How have we arrived at this point? How has our broadcast media so utterly lost its moral compass?

The reason for a free press--for our free press--is not to degrade our political institutions, undermine our elections, and threaten our politicians, but to strengthen and sustain our deliberative democracy.

If FOX News or any other broadcast media outlet cannot live up to that standard, then they should shut off their lights, sell their equipment, and choose another line of work.
Indeed.

Why do Bush, the vichycrat and McBush hate America?

Joe Biden responds to the insufferable quisling's neocon-whoring op-ed in the Whore St Fishwrap:

On Wednesday, Joe Lieberman wrote on this page that the Democratic Party he and I grew up in has drifted far from the foreign policy espoused by Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman and John Kennedy. In fact, it is the policies that President George W. Bush has pursued, and that John McCain would continue, that are divorced from that great tradition – and from the legacy of Republican presidents like Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush...

Last week, John McCain was very clear. He ruled out talking to Iran. He said that Barack Obama was "naïve and inexperienced" for advocating engagement; "What is it he wants to talk about?" he asked.

Well, for a start, Iran's nuclear program, its support for Shiite militias in Iraq, and its patronage of Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza.

Beyond bluster, how would Mr. McCain actually deal with these dangers? You either talk, you maintain the status quo, or you go to war. If Mr. McCain has ruled out talking, we're stuck with an ineffectual policy or military strikes that could quickly spiral out of control.

It's beautiful -- read the whole thing here.

I want my Cuban cigars, dammit!

Cuban leader Fidel Castro blasted Republican presidential candidate John McCain on Friday for his criticism of the Cuban government this week, saying McCain had shown why he finished near the bottom of his class at West Point.

McCain allows peek at medical records

Headline from teh intarwebs: "McCain appears cancer-free and healthy, just like Ted Kennedy did until a few days ago."

Straight-talking maverick John McCain will give select members of the media -- “a tightly controlled group of reporters,” AKA his "base" -- a three-hour glimpse at his huge stack of medical records Friday, right at the start of the long Memorial Day Weekend. Uh-huh.

Presidents and candidates have released records in the past, and some, like McCain, have stipulated that the records cannot leave the room. No cell phones or Internet access will be allowed in the room, located in a resort outside Phoenix, Arizona. Copying the records is also prohibited. Anyone who leaves the room for any reason except the bathroom will not be allowed back.

The confused old nutjob, who has been diagnosed with four melanomas and high cholesterol, has had both arms and one of his legs broken, has undergone torture ("We don't torture!" screams the ambassador of Vietnam), psychotic episodes of temper, and repeated assrapings by portly scumwad Karl Rove during the 2004 campaign, is under pressure to prove to the public that he is physically fit for office.

Rove subpoenaed in Congressional probe

Turd Blossom subpoenead over political prosecutions. 
Large, flatulent asshole subpoenaed in Congressional probe. 
Steaming pantload of effluvium subpoenead over political prosecutions. 
Sweet.


In what probably will be just another exercise in futility but is pretty cool nonetheless, the House Judiciary Committee has subpoenaed Satan's porcine handmaiden Karl Rove.
The committee has been investigating claims that the Bush misadministration played politics in decisions made at the Justice Department, including the firing of at least nine U.S. attorneys in 2006. Those firings created a political firestorm on Capitol Hill, and led to Bunnypants' asshole buddy Alberto Gonzales’ resignation last summer in disgrace and amid international ridicule.

Additionally, the committee has launched an inquiry into the Justice Department's prosecution of former Democratic governor Don Siegelman, now a political prisoner of corpulent antichrist Karl Rove.

"Although he does not seem the least bit hesitant to discuss these very issues weekly on cable television and in the print news media, Mr. Rove and his attorney have apparently concluded that a public hearing room would not be appropriate," House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers, D-Mich., said in a statement.

"Unfortunately, I have no choice today but to compel his testimony on these very important matters."
The subpoena calls for the fleshy, bottomfeeding douchewad to appear before the subcommittee at 10:00 a.m. on July 10.
