Damned if you do, Damned if you don't

  • RENO, Nev. (AP) - The Bush administration is relying too heavily on other countries in the international effort to stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons, according to Sen. Harry Reid.

    Reid, D-Nev., said the administration should be taking the lead, but instead is relying on Germany, France and Great Britain to convince Iran to end its uranium enrichment program.

    "It is hard to comprehend," Reid said Tuesday in Reno. "We should be involved at trying to arrive at a diplomatic solution. ... Not just these three countries."

I'm not going to google any more for the report i read that Obama was one of the leaders of this effort. Maybe I heard it on Letterman.

And if so, did she hit him with her cell phone?

LOL! Those shiftless blacks! Is there anything they won't blame white people for?

No, no, look -- they drew one of the characters as a black person. So, see, they aren't racist. Some of their favorite cartoon characters are black.

what do you expect?, 90% of them are democrats. Wilful failure to take personal responsibility and scapegoating are requisite behaviors to carry the donkey card.

Spending time with the congressional black caucus is a monumental waste of time, but does one really need to apologize for it?

using the presidency to collect on the requisite pussy the office merits is not conviction enough?

If reports are true, this is another area in which bush fails to measure up.

maybe yes, maybe no, but whatever his limitations in that area, they didn't impede his ability to ass-fuck into oblivion the warped socialistic vision of America that the liberals had at the turn of the century. and nary a reach around in sight for ya.

Then again, the Democrats never see fit to criticize anyone in their party - regardless of their behavior - so I guess it isn't all that surprising.
When you start channeling Not Me, you become more of a caricature of yourself than usual.

You don't see a difference between saying that the US should lead -- or at least be involved in -- trying to arrive at a diplomatic solution, and that the US should not start a war without broad international support?


I'm not suggesting that Iran would talk to the US, or that Reid is correct in his criticism, or that a diplomatic solution would work. Just wondering that you view these positions as contradictory.

True. After all, he did such a wonderful job killing off Social Security and Medicare. And he certainly did ass-fuck Clinton's socialistic legacy of peace, prosperity, and fiscal prudence.

Son, clearly you don't get "it", and by "it", I mean America. We are a country that fights for what we believe in, whether that be the abilities of Iraqis to be free from Saddam Hussein or the ability of good Southern boys to keep their God-given property when the Yankees want to take it away. And this fiscal prudence that you speak of comes at the expense of tax cuts, and tax cuts, my poor misguided Californian (and by Californian, I mean unAmerican hippie queer), are what America is all about.

And Prosperity? My boy, these have been good years for those of us in oil. Far better than the years with that son of Gommorrah.

I'm not saying he's guilty, but if I have learned anything about the press coverage of the matters I've worked on, it's that the press coverage is worth about what we paid for that ABCNews.com story.
2. I hardly think a camera's time stamp is a piece of unimpeachable conclusive evidence.

This thing is already turning into a low rate Bonfire of the Vanities. Its got all the badges to dredge up all sorts of debates on class and race which really don't belong anywhere near the case.

The case involves a rape. The rest of what those kids did is not a crime and has nothing to do with the case. The only thing that matters is if they sexually assaulted that girl in the bathroom as she alleges. the remainder of the evening is prologue and, unless there was a cover-up afterward, epilogue. Except to the whores in the press, of course, who want to create a nasty, bitter cultural debate out of it.

Fuck the news.
