Bush Should Take a Walk Near Home

October 24, 2002

The man who was supposed to be directly in charge of the last three weeks was Bush's favorite, John "Prayer Book" Ashcroft, the attorney general. I think he goes to church to pray against people.

But Ashcroft was nowhere because the president was nowhere. Bush should have been taking a walk through Silver Spring or Rockville. That was his job. He pledged to defend the nation. He could have started by helping to repel the attack on Washington.

It was one thing that Bush was completely disdainful of the World Trade Center. He and his people hate New York. He barely showed for a year. And they blew the attack. They blew it because any threats to New York weren't of such vital interest. New York is filled with blacks and Jews and all kinds of Hispanics and Asians who don't vote right. We don't bother with them during an election, then why stop everything and concentrate on some threat to the place?

[Brytani]

Why not, democrats have the dead voting for them.

OK I will make my BARF ALERTS Breslin Alerts instead! Like instead of *sshole we say CLYMER and we all know what that means. Breslin Alert can be Barf Alert. Good idea. So we never forget what an *sshole he is.

[patriciaruth]

The man must have a brain tumor.

[evolved_rage]

But what is with these old fart writers. Is Death tapping his sickle on their windows making them go senile faster???

[hinckley buzzard]

He was drooling with tangential and circumstantial run-on sentences thirty years ago--now he's just got wetbrain.

Maybe when he realizes that his alcoholic brain damage has disabled him from ever writing anything worth reading, he'll be like Hemingway and do the honorable thing.

[Pull your heads out]

Don't you people see that when history judges your group you will look just as bad as the your racist parents look in today's history

[Pull your heads out]

Hmm, personal attacks, kind of weak

[xp38]

Ah Jimmy Breslin...the columnist who couldn't write straight.

[TheBlueMax]

Put the crack pipe down, and sign off the Internet dude.

[Jorge]

Seriously, this article is so hysterical and idiotic, I am almost convinced that the Republicans are planting these kooks in the liberal press to make Democrats look bad.

[dyed_in_the_wool]

'Blame them for doing nothing' or 'Blame them for setting something up to solve.'
I think you have a copy of the democratic playbook.

I heard that. The host asked Breslin why he called the President a bigot. Breslin was immediately mad and said he wasn't going to talk and that the host didn't have the inteligence to speak with Breslin about the article and he hung up. Breslin sounded like a drunk old fool. I am disgusted that a paper would print such garbage!!!

[tubebender]

I heard that

Thanks for the backup on that. All I heard was a caller discussing the hang up. What was the sub Hosts name and where is he from?

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

I saw Breslin give this speech in June to a bunch of liberals. He was spinning out of control screaming that Bush was responsible for WTC because he and his buddies will profit from it, and that no child is traumatized that the towers fell and that to them it was just a video game.

All the liberals that were clapping and laughing were sitting on their hands. I have no respect for Breslin, he is a madman.

[Dan from Michigan]

Who the blue hell is Breslin?

OK, time for a side to side comparison between Jimmy Breslin and George Will?

[republicman]

What hypocrisy

[Clemenza]

Breslin has turned from a more intellectual (and liberal) Archie Bunker to a senial, bitter old man in recent years. I saw him do a talk at Barnes & Noble and he appeared to be "somewhere else" if you know what I mean.

[2rightsleftcoast]

I don't remember the hosts name or where he was from.
I tune in to Michael Medved when I don't care about topic on Hannity. Sometimes Sean talks too much to Flipper for my taste. Sorry I don't have answer.

[jwalsh07]

Breslin is a drunken, bitter ole sot. Here is more of his bigotry. I could give you quotes all night.

Jimmy Breslin on Strom Thurmond and California:

"His presence [in the senate] tells you that South Carolina voters don't care about the country. They are one of these low-IQ states that want to pull the whole country into ignorance."
