This is the way metrosexuals fight a f***ing war!

[dalebert]

I still want to know who gave all the photos to the press.

Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts, the Democratic presidential nominee-in-waiting, also jabbed at Bush on the issue. In an appearance in California, Kerry said, "As president I will not be the last to know what is going on in my command. I will demand accountability for those who serve, and I will take responsibility for their actions."

Just like he took responsibility for falling down while skiing, or for offensive material on his website, or for offensive and downright incorrect information in lines he's given dozens of times in his speeches (Carter & Baker as possible envoys, Benedict Arnold companies,etc.)

In each of those cases, he blamed somebody else, never taking responsibility for anything bad that is done in his campaign.

Idiot.

[xzins]

Ridiculous title. I heard the president.

He said he was sorry THAT a very few soldiers behaved the way they did.

He did not say that HE was sorry THAT HE did anything. In other words, he regretted the behavior of others.

So do I. Do you think I'll make headlines?

[dancusa]

If those prison photos were in Robert Mapplethorpe exhibit the media would be fawning over the "artist's" talent.

[ladyinred]

Good enough! Indeed, more than good enough.

SHUTUP Media lefists!

[PeoplesRep_of_LA]

Is this the Bill OReilly effect? I mean I have absolutely NO idea why anyone other than embittered military brass, fragile egoed Congressmen, or publicty whore commentators would have any desire to fire the straight shooting Donald Rumsfield.

I never thought that I had a political tin-ear, but this "fire Rumsfield movement" just seems so odd, so unfounded, so forced I find myself unable to relate to it.

Course there is a fourth group that also hates the man, who could generate a so called movement all by themselves...the news media. They would never create a story out of whole cloth though...noooooo.

THE MEETING (Transcript):


(Door closes)

Bush: What a bunch of Clymers.

Rumsfeld: Big time.

Bush: So, got any big plans this weekend?

Rumsfeld: Nah.

Bush: Me neither. Well, see ya, pal.

[Tax Government]

Bush has appointed some truly excellent people, including Rumsfeld and Rice. The democRATs can never forgive that, so they do the next best thing: issue b***sh*t calls for their resignation.

worldwide wave of revulsion over photographs showing Iraqi prisoners

Hmmm... let me just think about this for a minute...worldwide wave of revlusion....sort of like that worldwide wave of revulsion (tm) that followed this week's brutal murder of a pregnant woman and her four children in Gaza....sort of like that worldwide wave of revulsion(tm) when Danny Perl was brutally murdered....sort of like that worldwide wave of revulsion(tm) over the brutal murders and dislocations of a million black Africans in the Sudan....oh wait a minute, sorry, I must be on the wrong page here...

Now it's my turn to say "yes, but...". I can't justify what our troops did, but I can't get too worked up over it, either. I'm just sick to death of the worldwide wave of hypocracy that this incident has provided an excuse for.

[freekitty]

From what I heard; Bush did not apologize and rightly so. Also, Rummy should stay.

[PGalt]

Terrific President! Outstanding Administration!
