Week of August 9, 2009 - August 15, 2009

'Hardening' and 'softening' Bush/Cheney policies


The chosen terminology for the Washington Post article about Cheney's upcoming goddamned fucking lies/memoir is very interesting. From the Think Progress post that so succinctly condenses the WaPo article:

In "informal conversations" with authors, diplomats, policy experts and past colleagues as he prepares his memoir, former Vice President Dick Cheney has "opened a second front" against his "White House partner of eight years, George W. Bush." Cheney felt "that Bush had gone soft on him" in the second term, one participant said. "Or rather Bush had hardened against Cheney's advice."

Hmm. My inner psychologist's gay-dar is ringing like a dinner bell...It sounds like Little Georgie and Uncle Dick had a rather special sort of relationship. If we can trust these words to be Cheney's own, it would appear that Dick perhaps thought of himself as the Top Man in a latter-day Spartan mentored sort of war training for his young protege. Those Greeks...

Not that there's anything wrong with sweaty wrestling before a roaring fire in order to determine whose war policy will win out.

Town Hall health care rioters = anti-desegregation rioters


Via Hunter at kos. Quite an astute observation.

What do they DO with all that fucking money?


Damn. My heart just bleeds.

Focus on the Family is running a $6 million dollar deficit, out of a $138 million budget. As I said...what do they actually DO with that money?

Not one cent of that dough is for religious purposes. Every cent is spent on POLITICAL ends. But you know as well as I do it's ALL tax-free...time to sic the IRS on these sloppy sucks.
