FUCK THAT WORTHLESS PILE OF SHIT!!!


WOOHOO!!
:D

Well, I wonder who will replace him as Bush's personal lawyer, er...The Attorney General?

He has to be one of the worst, most unprofessional AGs ever...

[FORD]

Knowing Chimpy, he'll nominate ROVE as the replacement. It's actually been going around as a rumor since KKKarl supposedly "resigned".

[knuckleboner]

according to the articles, it'll be chertoff. better?

The name "chertoff", translated from Russian means "of the Devil".

The actions of Chertoff prove that his name is no accident.

Mike Malloy actually raised that possibility on his show Friday night. Guess he must have read the same article you did.

How about a competent attorney who's NOT a Likud double agent fascist? someone like Patrick Fitzgerald, for instance?

Well, that's good news. This time, a Democratic-controlled Senate has to confirm his next nominee.

[Steve Savicki]

Has this administration received more resignations in a single term in history?

Except that it's controlled by the same "Democrats" who gladly approved Speedy in the first place.

Not to mention Roberts, Scalito, the Iraq war, etc.

It's COMPLETELY common place for appointees to leave in the autumn of an administrations second term. Nothing unusual in that, all these guys can finally make a killing in the private sector.

[knuckleboner]

true. especially about tony snow.

though both rumsfeld and gonzales left under pressure, not so much for opportunity.

[Steve Savicki]

But the troops are still in Iraq, and we're now threatening Iran.

So what happens next?

[FORD]

Sadly, I don't think Tony Snow's departure is about "making a living". Not that I like the guy or anything, but cancer sucks ass even for evil lying sons of bitches like him.

[fryingdutchman]

Gonzales really did turn out to be a lying sack of shit.

Just another one who adds creedence to the old joke...

Q: "What do you call 10,000 lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?"

A: "A good start..."

I remember when he first came aboard and how he was trumpeted for being such a successful Latin American. I thought he might be one bright spot in an otherwise dismal administration.

But...he's just like the rest of 'em...

They were in the minority then, and it was a very different political climate. It will be different this time around.
