I received this via email in the past few minutes, has anyone else read this? This can't be true surely?

Washington (AP) - President Bush has, by all accounts received harsh criticism over his handling of the Katrina relief effort.

Earlier Tuesday, he publicly stated that he takes responsibility for the federal government's failures in the aftermath of Katrina, but what Bush may do next could surprise many observers.

Senior Republican party sources have indicated to AP that Vice President, Dick Cheney led a delegation of administration officials unhappy with the federal response to hurricane Katrina and its aftermath to confront President Bush last Thursday.

The delegation demanded that Mr Bush apologise to the nation for his administration's poor response to the crisis, or resign. It has not been relayed to our office what the response was to that demand.

1. What Is Going On?

There's obviously a concerted effort to push this "Bush is resigning" meme...Did I miss the memo?

[jayfish]

2. Wasn't Me...

I got "zotted" last week. I almost made it a full year. I did read that thread though. It was pretty funny.

[Alizaryn]

3. Over his dead body he'd resign.

[TomInTib]

29. over our dead bodies

I just cannot see this happening.

[underpants]

4. Not me

If Dick wanted W gone he would tell him so and W would leave.

Its not like he NEEDED the job to start with.

10. I'm searching for their reaction to * 's "taking responsibility"

all I hear are crickets :D

21. Is this what you are looking for

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1483578/posts?q=1&&page=151

It starts off basically saying that this can't be true, looking for a link, CNN lies and morphs into President Bush taking responsibility unlike Nagin and Blanco or that other President who never took responsibility for anything. That place is great for a laugh. They are in so much denial.

[CatWoman]

22. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Thanks!!!

:hi:

[underpants]

26. That reminds me I have to start a thread in the Lounge

Somehow a cricket got in our house. We don't HAVE to get rid of it but I was wondering if there was some weird odd way the people in Minnesota or Boston have to get rid of crickets. That is what the lounge is so good at.

28. My cats are my exterminators

:D

[spuddonna]

5. Can I call bullshit?

"Dick Cheney led a delegation of administration officials"
Yeah... ok. Dickie leads the coup?

Now, I wouldn't be surprised, but then again, I've been waiting for Mr. Evil to pull a coup all along. We'll become the United States of Halliburton. Ah yes... can you smell the fascism?

[Connie_Corleone]

6. I just got finished reading that on their site.

Maybe we should start a rumor campaign that Bush is going to resign. Or flood the cable news networks with emails saying Bush should resign since he "took responsibility".

[cynatnite]

7. The only way I'd believe that is seeing a uhaul parked at the WH n/t

[ret5hd]

8. i am a complete ass...but i am not wise...

therefore, you can mark me off your list.

[Jeanette in FL]

9. I figured one of our British DU'ers - Rumours

I was just over there a little while ago and came across it and had the exact same thought. Way down in the thread there is a very evil picture of Cheney with the post "Carefull what you wish for". LOL

[kikiek]

11. They are worried about losing elections. That's all that would be.

I heard he did take the blame for the federal response. Big deal. Tell that to the ones who died.

[MamaBear]

20. Since when do Repugs worry about elections?

They control the machines. They may be worried about losing their death-grip on the media however. With a functioning media, even with machine fraud, it would be harder to sell the steal.

Unless Franken were still on the air, of course.

[jim3775]

12. Whats a zot? n/t

[faithfulcitizen]

15. sounds pornographic....

:rofl:

[CatWoman]

17. I think it's like our "tombstoning"

or banning.

[jim3775]

19. Oh. What a strange word to use.

I guess strange is the norm over there.

[zbdent]

30. My theory on the "zot" - B.C. comic strip used to use the "lightning bolt"

(a.k.a. "hand of God") to strike down one of the characters in the strip. Until the Clinton Presidency, Hart (the creator) didn't really post much religious right stuff, so it was always implied.

So, it would probably be similar to them striking down a thinker . . . like they would have the moral high ground to actually be able to throw a pebble . . .

[charlie]

36. Sound of the anteater, too n/t

[nini]

13. IF this was true it would still be for selfish reasons

such as setting themselves up as saviors for the 2006 elections and beyond.

I find it hard to believe they would blame W when he's not really in charge at the levels a real president would be.

[NNN0LHI]

14. Damn who the hell would do something like that? n/t

[MADem]

16. AP. yeah, RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT

This is someone trying to stir up trouble with fake horseshit.

The US spelling of apologize does not employ an S.

Who is the bozo even spreading this shit? And who cares what those lunatics on the far right think?

Time for the progressives in this country to decide the agenda, the MISERABLE FAILURE http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/3298443.stm has had far too many chances to get it right, and all he does is get it wrong.

[frankly_fedup2]

18. Well, if it is a friend, that is a cruel joke to get our hopes up like

that. Also, on the other side, if this is true, he is doing this to start a civil war in this country by doing so.

He's never ran this country in the first place. Dick "go F yourself Mr." Cheney and Rummy have anyway. If Bush is resigning, it's because he is sick of putting up with the criticism, plus, he has never held a full time job (including this one), and he is tired and has made enough money for himself, his family and friends, so what is the point of him continuing when he could be home clearing brush.

They hope in Air Force One every weekend and go to Texas on our dime. I think he is out there four days a week and in Washington three. He feels it's time for his retirement.

Or, the freepers are just bored, so they start BS like this, come in here lurking to see how far it gets. That just goes to show how their cognitive skills are about as good as Bush's and they get bored fast. They cannot focus on any one thing at a time and so that is why they can call in all these shows and bash everyone but Bush. How sad.

[opihimoimoi]

23. It makes Perfect Sense for the Perfect Situation....Get rid of the Perfect

Dufus and have HIMSELF Installed as 44...then we get 11 more years of Pub Controll

Bush is a PAWN....Turns out a Dufus Pawn even the Pubs cannot handle/stomach/control...

The Perfect Pawn.....

[ima_sinnic]

44. also known as the Useful Idiot

Lee Harvey Oswald was a major Useful Idiot.
Timothy McVeigh was a Useful Idiot.
G. W. Bush is the current Useful Idiot. This time, We The People are in the crosshairs.

24. I like this response:

A troll that can spell and can write complete coherent sentences! To bad he wasted his talents on this. He might have had some potential!

Should be:

A troll that can spell and can write complete coherent sentences! Too bad he wasted his talents on this. He might have had some potential!

I guess someone can't spell.

[Generator]

25. Well it has a ring o' truth

Because can any of us IMAGINE the Bush taking responsiblity for anything if he wasn't forced to? Cheney led the delegation huh? Maybe they threatened to wack him. Ya never know what goes on their dark caves.

[Whoa_Nelly]

27. Have searched and searched for a link to this AP story

and have come up with nothing. Have to think this is a fabricated hoax of an AP story...
Anyone find an actual AP link that connects to this story?

32. kind of interesting

that rather than post things like "oh, that's untrue. he isn't going anywhere, etc....." they instead dismiss the article as the work of a troll, yet I didn't see anything inthe OP that would indicate the person was trying to flame or incite anything controversial.

[defiant1]

33. Wasn't me....

But :wtf: is a zot?

[CatWoman]

41. you better fucking duck

:D

[Bravo411]

35. It wouldn't matter one bit...

if Bush resigned. Cheney would just step up to the office of President. I seriously doubt that Bush's ego would allow him to do so, but then again you never know just what his handlers might have up their sleeves to persuade him to to it anyways. He's become a liability to the Republican party and the current administration.

Big deal if Bush isn't in charge anymore. It's not like he has been anyhow. Shit, imagine Cheney as President. He'd probably make Rove the V.P. as well.

37. The guy that posted this was 'tombstoned' almost immediately

Read theier responses - they don't believe this story for a second and neither do I. Bush is too arrogant to apologize or resign

[pitohui]
