Diane Rehm on NPR said Pelosi said Bush's POLICIES were incompetent
God forbid, those "enlightened NPR liberals" report facts. Facts, which if reported CORRECTLY, will make Rush Limbaugh call you bad names. WAAAAA!
So Pelosi says "BUSH IS INCOMPETENT" and these nail-biting, Rove-fearing, loathsome NPR "liberals" don't know what to do with it. Diane, how is an effin policy "incompetent"?????
I guess Diane is seeing all the money Juan Williams and Mara Liason is raking in at Fox, and wants summadat bling bling.
I hate NPR more every goddamn day.
I hope Diane's voice keeps cracking till they have to replace her with a journalist.

2. Good God, nobody should hesitate to call the Shrub "incompetent"
it should be RATHER FUCKING OBVIOUS by now.

I used to wonder what would happen if I let my German Shephard drive my car. I figured she was probably smart enough to actually sorta do it, if I could figure out a way to let her operate the gas pedals and the brake. Maybe one of those cars that are modified for paraplegics. Sure! She could figure that out.

But what would she do with the car?

Oh, she'd chase cats, that's what. She'd get behind the wheel of my pickup truck, and she'd fucking see a cat, and she'd take off after it behind the wheel, through other people's yards, fences, roses, whatever was in the way.

That's how I feel about Bushco running the country. It's like my dog driving my truck.

5. "Dog, driving truck, runs down helpless cats"
That's funny...thanks for the image! And, instead of barking i'd bet she would soon learn to use the horn as well.

Ya know, this whole dog vs. cat thing, kinda reminds me of the human us vs them, conservative mentality. Animalism. Conservatives allow their animal nature to control their lives. They just haven't evolved much, now have they? Maybe, since they are so slow to evolve, they will become extinct?

3. My father's brows must have hit the celing when he read this.
He was very impressed with Pelosi's comments. In his view, for a public servant to be called incompetent was the worst slap in the face. Of course, that was back when public servants took their positions seriously and integrity was more important than profit-making.

competent"...the word is reserved for humans.
And cuz Rehm MADE UP bullshit news that she knew was not accurate reporting. Pelosi said BUSH is incompetent.
