AMERICAblog: Former Bush spokesman's book criticizes Bush
stranded
· 1 year ago
I've never witnessed a single moment with a Bush Press Secretary when the foremost thought on my mind wasn't, "Oh my god, you CAN'T be serious!" It's like the press is swatting at tennis balls from a machine set on "destroy," with each lie so strained and twisted you just marvel in horror at the mechanical engineering. It's great that these sorts eventually turn on each other's carcasses, but once again this evil mouthpiece wants us to believe that he and Bush are just good-natured patriots trying their best with a bad boys club tripping them up. This book is just the cherry on the top of the poisonous confection called Scott McClellan.
Sorry for all the mixed metaphors.

Don't buy books from assholes. Let them take their lumps on the paid talk circuits where fruit and veggies can fly freely.

It is easy. The more you lie and cover up when it counts the more your tell all redemption truth book sells later. Our culture is fucked up.

Giving him some benefit of the doubt, it's possible that he didn't realize the extent of the deceptions until not too long before he resigned.

Ok folks, lets not repeat the right wing/neocon/conservative/REPUKE LIES!!!!!!!
IT WAS NOT A: serious strategic blunder
IT WAS A CALCULATED, STRATEGIC PLAN, THAT NOT ONLY HAS NOT FAILED, BUT WORKED PRETTY DAMN WELL. THOUGH IT WAS A LIE FROM THE BEGINING.
911 WAS A LIE. THE ECONOMY IS LIE. THE NATION STATE WE LIVE UNDER IS A LIE. THE JUSTICE DEPT WE LIVE UNDER IS A LIE. THE WHOLE FUKIN DAMN THING IS A LIE.
So lets not use thier words. The ILLEGAL OCCUPATION IS A LIE.
BLUNDER MY ASS!

That fine PJT, let me do the swearing. I have no respect for the aforementioned punks. They deserve all the disdain, mocking and swearing at one can throw at them.
PJT, innocent people are dying based on lies, so lets not worry about how vociferous "our language" is toward these REPUKES.
They deserve no respect at all!!!! PERIOD END!

The accused deserve respectful application of Justice and equvilant punishment if proven guilty. I promise to maintain respectful silence at the drawing but may giggle during the quartering.

Here is the question McCain needs to answer. If you are elected to the office of the president of the United States and you find out that your predecessor Bush or anybody in his administration has committed crimes will you punish them within the full extent of the law or will you, John McCain give them a pardon?
Since McCain is taking Bushco money.

And another thing, I'm tired of this bullshit!!!:
White House Slams New York Times Editorial On GI Bill ----------------------- The White House reacted quickly and strongly.
"This editorial could not be farther from the truth about the president's record of leadership on this issue," White House Press Secretary Dana Perino said in a statement. She added that the newspaper's editorial board "doesn't let the facts get in the way of expressing its vitriolic opinions - no matter how misleading they may be. ----------------------
CAN WE JUST START CALLING THESE PIGS LIARS???? WHY CANT WE JUST START SLAMMING THEM EVERYDAY, CALLING THEM FOR WHAT THEY ARE????
Thats just rich, they are telling the NYT that they are "misleading the truth" on this issue -
Unfreakingbelieveable???!!!!!?????? ((((((((SHAKING MY HEAD)))))))

What's even more disgusting than McClellan's tell all is Fran Townsend on AC 360 coming down hard on McClellan and defending Bush.
She reminds me of the Third Reich propaganda machine telling Germany that Adolph was in the thick of things in Berlin when he was in his mountain lair contemplating his suicide...
And McBush wants to tie himself to the whole charade of the Bush regime.

JEFF GANNON / GUCKERT Lived in the McClellen White House Briefing room. To this day how he got his access has never been explained. This White House created their own media which in turn dispensed the company line of lies which enabled these vile humans to manipulate a 51% majority into believing that for the first time in our 200 plus year history that to invade and occupy a sovereign nation without legitimate provocation was a well founded foreign policy.
Five tears and counting and we have tens of thousands of Iraq citizens maimed or killed, Hundreds of thousands are refugees, ten of thousands of American soldiers maimed and/or emotionally scared and 4000 plus lost to their friends and families.
I will be very interested to see if Mr. McClellens book deals on any level of depth in regard to the Gannon / Guckert saga. This whole episode of Government / media interaction was so overlooked and was deemed a "novelty story" but it is my opinion that this is a prime opportunity to bring this issue to the fore front.
Mr. McClellen will be making himself available to the general public as he promotes this book and he should be questioned repeatedly in regards to the Gannon / Guckert story and it relation to media manipulation.
From whom did Gannon / Guckert get his access Mr. McClellen?

absolutely agree, especially when it is a scumbag like Mc Clellan. That piece of shit HAD to know, because he was dancing delicately between lies, and inuendos, and knew EXACTLY what he could and couldn't say.
Just read the transcripts. Don't give this douchebag any money for his "tell all" bullshit book. He played on the devils' team, he heaped on...or "catapaulted" the bullshit, he was part of the problem.
And REAL people died....as always. While these scrotum-sacks played footsie with the press, and got all fucking indignant, and said things over and over that "it is outragous to hint that Bush knew..." blah, blah, blah.
