Desperately Trying To Pass the Buck
« on: April 11, 2007, 11:43:26 AM »
In what is perhaps the  most pathetic action this "administration" has ever attempted, Bush and his cult of loonies are seeking someone for a new office.  The GOP, once known as the party that wanted to shrink government, is now the party of bloated government, layer upon layer of bureaucracy and rampant spending.  Crooks and Liars gives you the lowdown on Bush's sad, sad attempt at passing the buck to generals who only throw up their hands, shrink away from Bush, saying, "How stupid do you think I am?".

Pretty pathetic.

I thought that the Secretary of Defense was supposed to be the "war czar"?

So does every other reality based thinker.  Why do they need another one?

Got me.

Just one more piece of evidence to support my contention that Bush is not a conservative.

Ditto.  Pretty much as egregious as when you had the other side pushing for a new Dept of Peace, that the current State Dept & Secretary of State largely function as

Sounds like a constitutional issue.

Moreover, shouldn't the military run the wars up to a certain extent?

Was that Democratic Party policy?

Good point.  Maybe the Washington Post and the other media outlets are all being tricked.

We'll just call them the New Pravda. Or Isvestia.   We'll have to rely on  samizdat.
