Sorry, I didn't realize you were the author. I wouldn't have posted my comment if I'd realized that. It IS well-written.
Now that Wead has apologized, I'm waiting for a congresswoman from New York to discover the true story behind the story: That Karl Rove was behind this whole thing from the beginning, so that he could make Bush look good and the mainstream media look bad. It's got his fingerprints all over it, just like the National Guard documents (/sarcasm off)
That doesn't bother me. Besides, I don't get feedback if I don't post it here.
And, unlike libs, we don't suppress free speech here. We cultivate it, evoking good conservative thought. So there's no need to apologize.
And thank you for the nice comments E.P. I do appreciate 'em. I always like to hear what the readers have to say.
I am glad that I read the whole thing and thus avoided posting a reply that would have made a complete d*mn fool of myself.
Excellent satire, and yet exactly what any liberal democrat, suddenly unable to tell a lie, would have written.
That's right. It's Rove's brainchild. Like I said, he needs to be frog marched out of the White House in handcuffs. :) Hehe!
Thank you, F.J. I really appreciate the wonderful comments. Keep living and we'll see the end of this kind of rabid thought.
Hero ~ Bump! ;)
Thanks for the bump, blackie.
Whether or not we ever see the end of such rabid thought, we will definately have a lot of fun lampooning their lampoonesque view of reality.
I'm here to serve.
How're you doin' Chris?
We will have fun indeed.
We will have fun indeed.
:)
I am doing fine. Thank you for asking.
That's perfect!!
Great article! pls add me to your ping list.
Thanks for the compliment. Consider yourself added to the ping list.
In today's local paper reprinted from a wire report is:
"Bush friend says he regrets tapes"
An old friend of President Bush who secretly recorded their private conversations and released them to the media said he has regrets and is turning the tapes over to Bush.
Doug Wead allowed journalists to hear and broadcast the tapes in the past week as he promoted his new book on presidential parents. But he said he canceled plans to be on "Hardball" on MSNBC Tuesday night to talk about his regrets because "it would only add to the distraction I have caused to the president's important and historic work."
"Contrary to a statement that I made to the New York Times, I have come to realize that personal relationships are more important than history," Wead wrote in a letter to the show's host, Chris Matthews, that MSNBC released to the public on Wednesday. "I am asking my attorney to direct any future proceeds from the book to charity and to find the best way to vet these tapes and get them back to the president to whom they belong. History can wait."
On the tapes, recorded over the course of two years before Bush became the Republican presidential nominee, Bush discusses strategy for his presidential run and appears to acknowledge past drug use. He says he will refuse to anwer questions about using LSD, cocaine and marijuana because "I don't want any kid doing what I tried to do 30 years ago."
The White House said bush did not dispute content of the tapes.
Stop with the closed-mind, lily. He said he was sorry. Sheesh!
:) Hehe!
