BELOW, breaking news! Patrick Fitzgerald has arrested the original CIA leaker:
I give UP! Don’t shoot me, Mr. G-MEN! I did it! I did it!
Stop this! I did it!
Ouch …. yes, Judy Miller told me first and I told Karl and Scooter.
Ouch … yes! It was Sulzberger who made Keller clam up and print Judy’s poopy stories!
NO! She wasn’t running amok. She was in league with all the Neocons! And Sulzberger knew it and let it happen, handcuffing Keller’s editorial powers.
(Slide Show at the WaPo)
Look, I know I shouldn’t have given them up, but Washington, D.C. is just about the MOST DEPRESSING PLACE to be these days! Everybody’s so edgy, testy, nervous, and despondent. Pssst … I hear Karl has the best supply of Xanax. Sigh.
It’s hard work landing helicopters but I managed to get it right on the Washington Monument.
Ah yes, another staged event. The judges on the Hill were so eloquent in their praise for Ms. Meirs this morning. How do they get away with all this propaganda? Can’t week for the indictments to go down this week. See what ten days off will do for you? I am optimitic again. Teehee
Q. How close is the US to an undeclared war w/ Syria?
Scotty rambling on about how bad Syria is…IOW…pretty damn close.
Q. about Scotty and how he lied to the press about Rove et al in the Plame affair
A. stock line: won’t comment on an ongoing investigation – although he’s also going on about how many in the press trust him and should continue to do so.
As if…
Scotty: I’m going to vigorously defend (Bush’s policies and agenda)…that’s part of my job.
I thought his job was to tell the truth and lay out the facts. He’s the WH press guy, isn’t he??
BREAKING NEWS: President amBushed by gang of midget British Guardsmen
HA! Great one ….
Or there’s “Who in the hell cloned Helen?!”
I knew they had WH rats – but WH pandas? That’s news! 🙂
This is the biggest dickhead in the administration:
Bushie is merely the biggest doofus in the administration.
posted under the wrong comment.
Well, South Park, Colorado has a “Sexual Harassment Panda.”
and here are the lyrics
Sexual Harassment Panda – South Park
Who lives in peace ‘neath the willow tree?
Sexual Harassment Panda!
Who explains sexual harassment to you and me?
Sexual Harassment Panda!
Don’t say that, don’t touch there..
Don’t be nasty says the silly old bear!
He’s come to teach you what’s right and wrong..
Sexual Harassment Panda!
Geez…can you throw in more phallic references? The monument, the helicopter, those microphones and the biggest dickhead in the US…
Or else anna from philly will hear you. 🙂
That cracks me up.
too late
but i dont have time for politics today
got my boyfriend tied up naked in the closet for some behavior modification….a few more minutes then i have to go back and beat him
your priorities.
‘ Do I really need more phalli to make you get it? I am da WAR PREZNIT!’
The only thing missing to tie it together is one of bushies phony halo shots…don’t christians and war go together like cheney & halliburton?
in lockstep,wearing their shiny jackboots.
When I first took the oath of office as President 51/2 years ago, I made this sacred commitment, to “consecrate my office, my energies, and all the wisdom I can summon to the cause of peace among nations.”
I have done my very best in all the days since to be true to that pledge. As a result of these efforts, I am confident that the world is a safer place today, not only for the people of America but for the people of all nations, and that all of our children have a better chance than before of living in peace rather than dying in war.
This, more than anything, is what I hoped to achieve when I sought the Presidency. This, more than anything, is what I hope will be my legacy to you, to our country, as I leave the Presidency.
To have served in this office is to have felt a very personal sense of kinship with each and every American. In leaving it, I do so with this prayer: May God’s grace be with you in all the days ahead.
(Throws two-fisted peace sign, gives sick smile, boards ‘copter)
Oh, day-umm, Susan! You really had me going there:
My little heart was going all pitty-pat, and the adrenalin rush, whoo-eee!
Giant pandas are cute and all that, but whooosh, I’d rather see a picture of neocons in orange jumpsuits.
Sorry about that 🙂
The tip-off is that if it were true, it’d be ABOVE the fold! 🙂
(I suppose everybody knows that that panda lives at the National Zoo in D.C. … the WaPo slide show is REALLY cute. There’s a marvelous photo of the panda mom cuddling the baby.)
Since this is an open thread, I’ll put this here. I’m sitting here with a raging headache after a shouting match with two people (Repugs) working where I do. One told of a recent trip to Russia where she had the opportunity to view a set of nesting dolls. The outer one was Clinton, next Monica, then Hillary. When she failed to get the reaction from me that she had hoped for things deteriorated. Thereafter I stated that a blowjob in the oval office is one of the worst things that could ever happen and will probably lead to the decline of western civilization. And I continued, that lying about a blow job was just so much worse than lying to get the US into a war. The other Repug stated that the problem with Clinton was that he lied directly to us on TV. I was astounded but my statements about Bush’s lies in State of the Union addresses were drowned out. Shockingly, these two Repugs still believe that there were WMDs in Iraq. The shouting was so loud must have been heard by the doll seller in St.Petersburg. My head aches.
should be glad we didn’t find WMDs in Iraq…because if they did, they’d still have the “Made in USA” label…
“Since everyone is here who hasn’t been indicted lets get started.”
THIS is cool news …

Arrested White House Leader —
Don’t do that to me – this combination!

Susanhu — fucking hilarious. I clicked on the “read more” tab anxiously awaiting news of the arrest, and saw the fucking Panda. They are taking down a fucking Panda. And a cute one at that. I don’t like his chances inside the joint, man. And I have to wonder if this is all part of the propaganda push I have been hearing on the radio today to villanize the Chinese. Our new cold war rival to support the military-industrial complexes imaginary need for a war once the country finally catches on that there isn’t another army opposing us in the “War on Terror.”
Fucking Panda. Ahahahahahaha!
I get the sense you’re slightly disappointed, BostonJoe.
</snicker>
No. Never disappointed with someting that funny. Laughing my ass off. Laughter is a good thing, in these times of waiting for indictments.
First Lady Impaled when Helo-One Lands on Monument
President Philisophical About Loss with Help of Jesus
Don’t you just wish he was standing a little closer to those helicopter blades? Maybe it’s just me… 🙂
You’d think that with his relative lack of weight in the brain area, he might get sucked into those rotors sometime. The fact that it hasn’t happened by chance leaves me to believe there is a God, and he is fucking evil.
Ed Schultz is announcing that today when his show was to begin airing on Armed Forces Radio, they were contacted at 6AM and told ‘not yet.’
Aw shucks everyone, this here is my invisible friend,(the only real friend I have) Harvey, a giant rabbit…ah what’s that Harvey, you say those reporters are invisible and short too….no wonder they look up to me, heh heh heh. Then again if I got off my high horse they might not have to crane their necks to look up to me, heh heh heh..Well Harvey says that’s all the questions we have time for, time to go to town and have a wee bit of a drink…man how cool is it to blame Harvey for my problems anyway. Who says I need Rove to think for me..if Jimmy Stewart could talk to a 6 foot rabbit I sure as hell can.
This just looked like Jimmy Stewart and the way he held his arm for Harvey…not that bush is in any way comparable to JStewart. Wasn’t JS a colonel in the Air Force who actually served?
Ack. Great minds think alike. Heh.

“Have y’all met my good friend Harvey, over here? He’s gonna be my new White House Counsel.”
Glad someone else got the same first impression I did. I thought maybe when I wrote what I did people might think I was really reaching for some kind of answer or hitting the sauce with Harvey myself.
Damn, I should have read the comments thoroughly first. “Imaginary friend” was the first thought that popped into my mind…
“President Bush introduces his new advisor, Jesus H. Christ, to the reporters assembled on the White House lawn. Only those with true faith are able to see the popular philosopher.”
Ha..I also posted upthread that bush needed to have one of his halo pictures added to his head here..kinda goes along with your comment I think..and apparently if your not of the true faith your invisible to bush and JC.
Military reverses plan to add Ed Schultz show to Armed Forces Radio. See Rawstory for details.
So far, the fascist censorship continues. But I think our armed forces are entitled to hear someone besides Rush Limbaugh. Time for another call/email to our Sens and Reps, I’d say.

As was reported here @BooMan ::
BAGHDAD, Iraq Oct 17, 2005 — Election workers announced “unusually high” vote counts in Iraq’s landmark referendum on the draft constitution, saying Monday that they will audit results showing unexpected ratios of “yes” to “no” votes from some parts of the country
The constitution requires a simple majority to be approved but could be defeated if two-thirds of voters in three of Iraq’s 18 provinces reject it.
There are majority Sunni populations in four provinces — Al-Anbar, Diyala, Nineveh and Salaheddin — and all reported strong voter turnout. Media reports of a “yes” victory in Nineveh, which includes the restive mixed city of Mosul were refuted by regional electoral head Dhaher Habib al-Juburi, who said: “There is no truth to these reports,” and stressed it would take days for the ballots to be properly counted.
Two Sunni-dominated provinces had rejected the text, central commission spokesman Farid Ayyar, citing provisional figures of 80 percent in Salaheddin and 54 percent in Diyala. Results from the two other Sunni-dominated provinces, Al-Anbar and Nineveh, were therefore crucial. “The general trend in Al-Anbar is ‘no,'” said Adel al-Lami, president of the commission, without giving further details.
Pale neon lighting illuminated election workers in Baghdad as they opened clear plastic boxes containing vote tallies brought in from around the country.
Iraq’s neighbors Jordan and Iran congratulated Baghdad on the vote, with Amman saying the large turnout was “extremely favorable” no matter what the result, and Tehran adding that Iraq faced the promise of a “bright future with peace and stability”.
British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw and Javier Solana, the EU’s High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy said in a joint statement: “This is another historic step for the Iraqi people.”
President Bush said today that he was pleased that Sunni Arabs cast so many ballots.
YES – Prez Bush likes extra votes :: stuffed ballot boxes in Iraq, Ohio and Florida!
Spread Freedom and Democracy – spread ballots.

The panda is sooo cute… I laughed, and then I clicked over to the WaPo because you didn’t reveal what the lil’ critter’s name was — sneaky Susan! They had an online vote for that, heard it on the radio this morning. (and no, I’m not going to reveal it either.) 🙂
