It’s Sunday morning; time for the weekly talking head fantasy shows wherein paid representatives of the Bu$hCo malAdministration lie to their paid shills in the electronic media. I don’t much bother with these shows. It’s all crap, anyway, and the travesty just sours my stomach. What’s the point of watching “journalists” nod sagely as the latest lies are spewed forth and said “journalists” ignore obvious inconsistencies in the public record in their haste to move on to the next scripted question?
But, as the title states, this will be a tough Sunday. So much to overlook, lie about, spin away, and ignore.
Ms Miers not only has no judicial qualifications, is an ardent admirer and supporter of our Imperial Resident, and has been exquisitely overpaid for unspecified legal work, but she’s also the recipient of incredible largess from the state of Texas.
Then there’s the Plamegate mess. Most noteworthy: The Facsist Party pushback which is full of lies and Media Matters performs a perfect hip throw here, for those of you interested in political jiu jitsu.
There’s the DeLay mess. Where to go? So much has been written. We all understand corruption. Who among us hasn’t slipped $10 to a headwaiter for a better table or comped someone for a favor? It’s the same thing, only the numbers are bigger, and the favors slightly excessive. When a guy gets paid multiples of $10,000 to make sure women in an American protectorate can continue to be kept in sexual slavery things may have gone a bit too far.
Best talking point of the day? How much has Bush’s “political capital” been hurt by the recent run of “bad luck” he’s experienced as fate conspired to tear away the curtain of invulnerability and exposed his wonderful wardrobe?
