4. can somebody please explain to me
how a loathesome, lying, uh, can't use that word, like Hughes just gets away with the most outRAGEOUS propaganda, and isn't called on it at all?

contrast it with reasonable statements by just about any opposing voice, and they're shouted down in the most scabrous manner

not to mention, does she EVER face another person in this gladhanding parade, like most left-leaning authors, who have to suffer the likes of John Fund, or Laura Ingraham, or somesuch droolmonkey?

3. She just said that W's speech at the U.S. will go down in history
As some kind of remarkable use of the power of the presidency and an example of a leader standing up to terror and evil. These people are truly brainfucked.

8. you know what I can't WAIT for?
when this turdbuckle and all his henchmen/women are ridden out of town on a rail in less than seven months, and he's finally exposed as the lamest, most perfidious/worthless, laziest, unctuous, vapid, transparent, iditotic, moronic, witless, inexpressive, jejune, vindictive, superstitious, parsimonious, hypocritical, etc, etc, bastard our poor nation has EVER seen.........

THEN, we can replay fatuous comments like the ones Hughes and dumbo's other hagiographers have spewed out, and LAUGH LAUGH LAUGH LAUGH our collective ASSES off!!!!!!


how SWEET that will be.

well, tempered with the sense of awful loss these monsters have occasioned upon the entire world

man, that good mood sure didn't last very long

16. Brief flashes of a good mood are all we can hope for these days.
21st century reality is a mofo.

5. I just read somewhere how Clarke was castigated
for giving out the White House spin, which is required while working for *, when Hughes comes out and does the same thing unabashedly, and no one calls her on it.

9. Well, I don't recall that he was ever castigated on it while working there
The only castigating has occurred since he publicized the book and served as a 9-11 investigating committee witness.

12. As he was sucking up to KH
I was screaming at the TV. He never once called her on any of the lies that were flowing from her lips. The love-fest between them was disgusting.

14. IT is amazing to me
how close the questions that CM asked her, and the questions that Larry King asked her, are. Its like they were given a script to follow and she had her answers down pat. I swear I thought I was having a flash back to last night!

15. thank zeus for Somerby
In this morning’s Post, Allen explains the approach Rice will take tomorrow. According to sources, the uber-script will be hauled out again—Dear Leader Bush was quite vigilant:

ALLEN: National security adviser Condoleezza Rice plans to testify tomorrow that the Bush administration was acting in a pre-Sept. 11 mindset in its efforts to combat al Qaeda and other terrorist groups and must be judged in that context, administration officials said yesterday.
At the same time, Rice plans to argue that President Bush focused aggressively on terrorism before the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. The CIA had warned for several months that a massive al Qaeda strike was possible.

Can that possibly be the line Rice will follow? We wonder if Allen is being spun. Could Rice possibly say that the Bush Admin was stuck “in a pre-9/11 mindset?” That’s the claim critics like Clarke have brought forward in their attacks against Bush!
But notice the one omnipresent claim—Dear Leader was alert and focused. How could Rice claim that? a critic might ask. After all, didn’t Bush tell Robert Woodward that he wasn’t “on point” before 9/11? It seemed that way when we read Bush at War. But a new script may now have emerged.

Last night, Karen Hughes was asked about this matter on Larry King Live. Her answer? Bush was misquoted:

CALLER: Can you please explain to me what President Bush’s own words meant that he said to Bob Woodward which were, paraphrased, I’m sorry, if al Qaeda was not urgent, I was not on point, I was not thinking about Osama bin Laden. To me, it begins and ends there.

HUGHES: That’s slightly somewhat of a misquote. I was in the office when the president did that interview with Bob Woodward. What he was actually asked about was killing Osama bin Laden, assassinating Osama bin Laden. You understand, that is always a very difficult decision for any American president. That’s something that our country is rightly very concerned about, the idea of assassination of a foreign national. Particularly before September 11.


don't miss the rest, I MEAN it!

18. couldn't bear to get through it.....
About halfway through, I thought, "Why am I listening to this crap? I can hear Repuke propaganda 24 hours a day?" So I switched to the home and garden network. When I came back, hoping Kar-man Hughes was off, I heard Tweety asking her about Bush being so comfortable around strong women?
Strong women, my ass.
He clearly has "mommy" issues, and if he ever really had anyone stand up to him in his entire life, his empty head would explode.
