1. No.
Dan is wondering whether Rummy, his investment partner, will call him back in for a media stop-loss.

3. After you lose your job, how funny is any of this?
If it were me, I'd be beside myself with disgust and anger. And, I couldn't say "I told you so" enough. But, I doubt that I'd find it funny. Heartbreaking is more like it.

4. He may have had to eat his meat but it's pudding time now.
How sweet it is.

All in all you're just another brick in the wall.

"Wrong, Do it again!"
"If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding. How can you
have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"
"You! Yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!""

8. I find it highly ironic
that the same people who tried so hard to vilify and discredit the media is in turn being burned by that same medium.

I guess Rove expected those reporters to go along with his lies, and verify that Plame's ID didn't come from him.

As Khan said: "Revenge is a dish best served cold" :D

11. The worst thing about what happened to Dan is the fact that he
was absolutely right about Bush being AWOL. That must really hurt.

5. As Dan himself would say...

Yep, you can turn the lights down, the party just got wilder.

Don't taunt the alligator until after you've crossed the creek. But just the same, it looks like Bush has got his back to the wall, his shirttails on fire and the bill collector's at the door.

This Traitorgate thing is sure making Bush's fingernails sweat.
Right now you can bet he has a slight hitch in his giddy up.

No doubt Bush doesn't know whether to wind his watch or bark at the moon.

Rove is feeling pretty squeezed right now, like a too-small bathing suit on a too-long ride home from the beach. Tight as the rusted lug nuts on a '55 Ford.

After all the White House story is shakier than cafeteria Jell-O. But then, if a frog had side pockets, he'd carry a handgun.

7. No, he's probably looking for ways to bring the bastards down
behind the scenes.

My, won't revenge be sweet?! :evilgrin:

9. I hope you are right.....
I hope he will be able to turn the table on these people and all of those that got great joy out of his troubles!
It will make his day to see them all eat crow!

10. I'm optimistic that he's working on it...I doubt he enjoyed going
out the way he did after all those years of being highly respected.

It's payback time!
