They have a video game called "Whack Iraq?" Are we sure we want this country while all the whackos (no pun intended) are still here?

30. Lol! I had to make a clip of that one
I LOVE Olbermann.

New Bush Ad

Incidentally, do you notice how creepy LAURA looks? At one point in this ad, her head actually turns (as opposed to being forced in one position) and she looks at him as if she's saying WTF????? If it weren't for that one motion, she could be a wax dummy

7. I missed it. I'm sure we will probably be seeing a lot of it though.
How did they use 911 exactly?

28. ...and Tweety says yesterday, "George Bush is a better man than
his commercials, and Kerry's commercials are better than Kerry himself." He said this while "discussing" the new campaign ads with a rep. from the Bush-Cheney campaign and a rep. from Kerry-Edwards' campaign. I think all the Kerry-Edwards guy could muster was to say, "Well, it's your show." And Tweety goes, "Well, a lot of people think the same thing" or something to that effect."

Again, proof positive that Tweety is a shill for the GOP.

If Bush is a better man than his commercials, Bush is a pile of shit, which we know anyway. As for what he said about Kerry, Tweety can go Cheney himself.

5. Olbermann said they have it on the Bush site. But he says he
feels for parents trying to decide which child to pick-up on 9/11... (assuming they are at school or something like this and then you have to make sure they are safe??? ) it is really, really, creepy.

11. It was all soft-focus touchy-feely like
and totally gross.

Bush and Pickled sitting on the davenport (that's what people with Bush's money have instead of sofas); Pickled is looking as if she wishes W would hurry up so she could step out for a smoke, while W says "I can't imagine being a parent having to decide which child to pick up on 9/11." No real context, just kind of out of nowhere. It really, really is creepy. And totally expoitive of the WTC victims.

Bush can't imagine that scenario, because when he was sitting with 30 school children and the attacks came, he didn't even have the balls to stand up an leave the room to go be CIC.

10. Did you see that web page where sex was offered to men who
switched their votes from repug to democrat? Wasn't that weird and counter productive? I think it is done by repugs to smear the dems?

He cannot even get through his faux compassion without a smirk.

Can this b@stard imagine the agony of the parents, spouses, children, friends, relatives, etc., who must quietly and almost secretly (without media) bury their son, daughter, spouse, parent, etc., who was killed in a political war in Iraq for the political benefit of this @ss. I would like to believe this administration is ashamed of the death and harm they have brought upon this nation, but they are only concerned about winning the vote.

18. Who had to make that choice on 9/11 anyway?
That's a false positive. Were kids stranded all over town while their parents picked up the favored sibling?

22. REPEATING: Bush is intimidating the DEMS with Goss: another
attack is the dems fault for not approving Goss.
But it may allow a re-examination of all the administration's failures on the war on terror.

27. Andrea Mitchell says the Goss nomination is a win-win for Chimpy
Guess she didnt read Eric Alterman today!!!

Goss Blocked Efforts to Investigate Abu Ghraib

Goss blocked efforts to investigate Ahmed Chalabi

Goss mocks suggestion to investigate the outing of Valerie Plame: "Rep. Porter Goss said Thursday that the uproar over allegations that White House officials purposely identified a covert CIA agent...doesn't yet merit an investigation by the House Select Committee on Intelligence, which he chairs...'Somebody sends me a blue dress and some DNA, I'll have an investigation.'"

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3449870/

Yeah, guess it is a win-win for Chimpster alright!!
