White House predicts Maliki won't call U.S. troops butchers
when he meets Bush at the White House.

what a great victory! Some of our puppet leaders which we installed at the cost of 2600+ American lives so far might not call us butchers to Bush's face.

Bolten Says Iraqi Speaker, Who Called U.S. ‘Butchers,’ Appreciates ‘the Sacrifice Americans Have Made’ »

Yesterday, the speaker of the Iraqi Parliament, Mahmoud al-Mashhadani, said “We know there was a corrupt regime in Saddam, but a regime should be removed by surgery, not by butchering. The U.S. occupation is butcher’s work under the slogan of democracy and human rights and justice.”

Today on Meet the Press, White House Chief of Staff Joshua Bolten said he has been in meetings with al-Mashhadani and the speaker has an “appreciation for the sacrifice so many Americans have made.” Watch it:

2. oh, really Mr. Bolten, we can just rely on your judgment again
that's why the Congress nominated you for the UN post as required, oh, whoops, forgot, they didn't do that, Bush did that while they were out of town. Silly me.

3. Wrong Bolton. This is the other idiot named Bolton who works for Bush
Josh Bolton. His hobby is collecting palm prints of Bush. True story.

4. Oh, yes, okay another one to read the tea leaves in the M.E.
I once saw a russian movie about a spacestation, the sheriff who was a bit of a "Bushbot" went
to the lounge to talk to the miners. Sheriff, Paraphrasing (I really want to open a dialogue
with you. Miners: We hate you, when we get the chance we will kill you.) After he leaves the
lounge, the sheriff comments, "Well, that could have went better." This reminds me of what
is going on now with the Bush administration. They didn't say we were butchers, they just
said we were butchers.
