Bush 'justice' buddies blow Bush oil buddies

As if they all weren't hated enough already ... the Bush/Cheney Supreme Court on Wednesday 'overturned the record $2.5 billion in damages that Exxon Mobil had been ordered to pay for the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill' disaster off Alaska.

Poised for a political comeba...

The popular war preznit has regained his footing... oh, I'm sorry, Mr Broder, make that "public approval of Smirky McGameBoy's job performance fell to a new low in the latest LA Times/Bloomberg Poll."

In a related story, only 23% of Americans love America. And America's American American doesn't fare much better than the guy he's nothing like. 

Obama campaign responds to a desperate Rove: 'fuck you, you pathetic loser'

Senator Obama's communications director Robert Gibbs brushes off Satan's porcine handmaiden on Morning Joe:

GEIST: I want to ask you, Pat Buchanan coined the term faculty lounge, he's got the patches on his sleeves, smoking a pipe. Karl Rove has a different way of describing it. He says this. At a breakfast with Republican insiders at the Capitol Hill Club this morning, former White House senior aide Karl Rove referred to Barack Obama as quote, "coolly arrogant...Even if you never met him, you know this guy. The guy at the country club with the beautiful date holding a martini and a cigarette, that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by." That sounds like your candidate?

GIBBS: I would be willing to bet you that Karl Rove hung out in the lounge of a country club a lot more often than Barack Obama has. I would think a guy who came to Washington eight years ago and talked about how his version of the Republican party would take over the country for years and years to come, might have cornered the market on arrogance to a degree that not many people have seen before. His president right now, his approval ratings hover somewhere around the national drinking age. I think if people look at the arc of the Bush presidency and where this thing has ended up, we have had a disastrous foreign policy, our economy is in shambles, our debt and our deficit have skyrocketed. It's really hard to list one or two things that Karl Rove did right over eight years. So, you know, I'll let him do his lecture circuits and coin little phrases, but, it seems like a silly thing.

BRZEZINSKI: Touche.

GEIST: So for the record, Barack Obama does not hold martinis or stand against walls. Is that what you are saying?

BRZEZINSKI: Making snide comments.

GIBBS: The last time I saw him, he was drinking a beer. Fuckwipe.

OK, the last bit was mine. Meanwhile, the pudgy, sweaty Rove, who was probably bullied as a child for being such a pudgy, sweaty, obnoxious twerp, only wishes he could be one of those tall, cool, thin suave guys instead of the disgusting bloater he is, a vast bag of phlegm desperately picking the stained seat of his fraying undies out of his itching, rashy asscrack.

Defeatocrat b HUSSEIN Osama really should go to Iraq to see how well things are going. I mean, you'll never hear about all the progritude from the liberal media --

A roadside bomb killed three U.S. soldiers and an interpreter in a region of northern Iraq where U.S. and Iraqi forces are battling al Qaeda, the U.S. military said on Wednesday.

A total of seven Americans have been killed by bombs in last 2 days.

This is hysterical: after the creationist winguts at Conservapedia doubt a professor's evolutionary biology research, they demand to see his data. He responds with some beautiful pwnage --

I know that I’ve been a bit less polite in this response than in my previous one, but I’m still behaving far more politely than you deserve given your rude, willfully ignorant, and slanderous behavior. And I’ve spent far more time responding than you deserve. However, as I said at the outset, I take education seriously, and I know some of your acolytes still have the ability and desire to think, as do many others who will read this exchange...

Fooking Dems...

Congress goes to court and asks the judge to enforce subpoenas against former White House counsel Harriet Miers and Chief of Staff Josh Bolten.... and the judge asks "Why are you in court? Why don't you just arrest them?"

Sewage treatment officials pissed over comparisons to shithead

San Francisco utility officials are mad about the ballot measure to rename a sewage treatment facility after George Dumbyuh Bush. Not because they're conservatives, but because the facility does its job well.

Honor and integ...

Saint "McCain's national campaign co-chairman, former DHS Secretary Tom Ridge, sorta kinda forgot to register as a foreign lobbyist for Albania," TPM reports.

Oh, and speaking of McCain lobbyists...

Fla. repuke defends plagiarized speech

Gee. Another day, another rethug doing something sleazy.

A Republican congressman has sort of apologized for posting a speech on his website without acknowledging that most of it was written by someone else.

Rep. Jeff Miller, R-Naturally., says he did nothing wrong in delivering the heavily borrowed address -- which fellow Republican Sen. John Isakson wrote for his son's high school graduation and has delivered more than 100 times since.

Honor and accountability!

Justice Dept. hiring marred by politics: probe

From the Duh! Institute and NoShit Daily:

George W. Bush's Justice Department improperly injected politics into hiring programs, a department investigation released on Tuesday found.

Let's see that again:

Justice Department officials over the last six years illegally used “political or ideological” factors to hire new lawyers.

The Justice Department. The fucking JUSTICE Department. Honor and integrity.

Feh, never mind that: 'former President Bill Clinton offered a faint voice of support for Barack Obama' -- through a spokesman. ZOMFG!!! The Dems are in dissarray!!11!!eleventybillion1!!!

Rethug propaganda machine covers UP the news

They're not even pretending to pretend that they're a news organization anymore. The Fox Nutwork erased America's American American saying he "really didn’t love America." From Fox Attacks:

Jedreport.com discovered that the transcript of the McCain/Hannity interview on FoxNews.com had no mention of McCain saying he “really didn’t love America” until he was a POW. I checked and sure enough, it wasn’t there. So I started watching the video of the interview of FoxNews.com — it wasn’t there either...

We’ve really got them on this one. How on earth can Fox explain why they have censored their own website? Can there be any other reason than that they are trying to protect McCain from his own words? Is this in any way consistent with a channel that claims to be a “fair and balanced” news organization?

Maybe you should ask Fox for yourself. Contact them here:

Pucker up!

A couple of quivering mouthbreathers at fullfrontalfellatio.org can barely contain themselves as they discuss Saint McSame --

John McCain may be the underdog in the presidential race but you wouldn’t know it from his campaign’s bold stance on energy policy.

Oooohh, lip-prints! Bold, greasy lip-prints!

Last week, McCain [-- who lives in landlocked Arizona --] pledged to end flipflopped on ending the 1982 moratorium on offshore gas and oil drilling in the continental United States.

There, fixed it for you. Next week, he'll pledge to send a man to Uranus to drill for oil, just as long as its not psycho aide Charlie "boom boom" Black.

This week, he proposed offering $300 million [of his wealthy wife's beer money!] to any individual that can develop a better car battery.

Well this week I'm proposing offering a brazillion to anyone who can develop a flying car that runs on your mom. Fuckwits.

Smug jackhole screws thousands of fliers

Nearly 40,000 travelers will remember US King George the Insipid's vanity trip to London. Their flights were canceled or delayed at Heathrow Airport to accommodate him, according to British Airways, who is still getting angry calls in the middle of the night insulting their mum.

"The decision to allow that egotistical cowboy and his fleet of aircraft to fly into Heathrow rather than a military base was one all of Heathrow's users could have done without," British Airways' chief executive said, dropping his monocle. "I am very angry that this was allowed."

Yeah. We feel your pain.


Idiot.

Another reason I'm glad I won't be going

As if cameras in your hotel room weren't bad enough --

"China has bolstered its Olympic security effort by deploying a battery of surface-to-air missile launchers a kilometer south of the venues for the Beijing Games."

Defeatocrat b HUSSEIN Osama really should go to Iraq to see how well things are going. I mean, you'll never hear about all the progritude from the liberal media -- 2 US soldiers, two civilian U.S. Embassy employees and at least 6 Iraqis have been killed in an explosion at a council meeting in Baghdad today that was 'meant to target US troops.'

Update from yesterday's attack: Two U.S. soldiers were killed and three were wounded when a council member opened fire on them after a meeting in a small town south of Baghdad, the U.S. military said.


Above: 2 utter nimrods putting our troops at risk.

Is it possible that the American people are so stupid and easily manipulated that they would fall for this steaming pile of Rovian Bullshit?

ABC News’ Christianne Klein reports that at a breakfast with Republican insiders at the Capitol Hill Club this morning, former White House senior aide Karl Rove referred to Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, as “coolly arrogant.”
“Even if you never met him, you know this guy,” Rove said, per Christianne Klein. “He’s the guy at the country club with the beautiful date, holding a martini and a cigarette that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by.”

Fun Fact: Due to the color of his skin, Osama Obama “wouldn’t be admitted into any country clubs that members of the Capitol Hill Club frequent.”
Oh, yeah, the guy who worked as a community organizer, university lecturer in Constitutional law, State Senator, who just paid off his student loans, an elitist, unlike the Straight-talkin Maverick™.

Nice try, Smegmabreath.

Fuck

An Oregon woman who dated "pro-life" Republican congressional candidate Mike Erickson said he paid for her abortion 'after indicating to her he didn't want a child.'
