Your Weekend Dose of Reality

Yeah, now what hypocrites?
Reagan not only had the nerve to be photographed with the dead. He announced it in a radio address.

There's nothing better than getting wingnuts to talk in circles. Ronald Reagan, the original, 'cut and runner' - Beirut 1983. -- Now that's a real 'photo-op', where the Gipper told the press beforehand, hey watch this! Firedoglake

'I do not recall'
Cheney's denials that he talked about Plame are among the few things in the lengthy interview with the FBI that Cheney appeared certain about. He repeatedly said he could not recall key events. Among them, he said he did not recall discussing Wilson's wife with Libby before her CIA employment was publicly revealed by conservative columnist Robert Novak in mid-July 2003. Evidence at Libby's criminal trial showed that Cheney had told Libby about Wilson's wife in mid-June 2003.

Dick Cheney, the country's biggest Chickenhawk and highest ranking traitor ever, committed perjury and was the mastermind behind the outing of a covert CIA agent who was working on Iran's nuclear program. Cheney should be in prison for the rest of his miserable life and not giving speeches to the America-haters. Period.

Digging Out of the Bush Hole
The gross domestic product rose at a 3.5% annual rate in the third quarter, the government says. The expansion unofficially marks the end of the worst recession since World War II.

History shows that it's always tough cleaning up the mess following any Republican administration but Bush Jr. topped them all!

Even our children get it
"Good white people"
Zogby Poll asks;
"Federal Communications Commission Chief Diversity Czar Mark Lloyd wants the FCC to force good white people in positions of power in the broadcast industry to step down to make room for more African-Americans and gays to fill those positions. Do you agree or disagree that this presents a threat to free speech?"

What about the 'bad' ones? WTF was Zogby thinking?

Taking out the garbage
After a 2-year investigation, FBI agents descended on a Dearborn warehouse Wednesday hoping to capture the suspected head of an Islamic fundamentalist group. The scene quickly turned chaotic, however, in a shootout that caused agents to gun down Luqman Ameen Abdullah, 53, leader of the Masjid Al-Haqq mosque in Detroit.

Speaking of garbage...
Two weeks in a row Pigboy proves he's a simple fool whose only 'show prep' is following the lead of other fools.

Bush's Secretary of Defense
GATES: Well, I will tell you, I think that the strategy that the president put forward in late March is the first real strategy we have had for Afghanistan since the early 1980s. And that strategy was more about the Soviet Union than it was about Afghanistan.
KING: You served in the Bush administration. That’s a pretty broad damnation of the Bush strategy.
GATES: Well, the reality is, we were fighting a holding action....

Secretary Gates set the record straight. The Bush apologizing hypocrites have absolutely no standing on Afghanistan. If you said nothing then, shut the fuck up now!

Bill Clinton-The Good TimesAnd George W. Bush more than doubled the national debt, left us with a $1.2 trillion deficit and the worst recession since the Great Depression. Heckuva job, wingnuts!
