“The George W. Bush Sewage Plant.” Is it just me or does that have the ring of righteousness to it?

As if we needed one more reason to love San Francisco, they may soon offer the chance to shit on the man who’s been shitting on us the past seven years:

From the International Herald Tribune

Reagan has his highways. Lincoln has his memorial. Washington has the capital, and a state, too. But President George W. Bush [...]

Weekend Blog Sampler — FISA

brazenlyliberal — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 02:51:44 +0000

This week, the House Democrats capitulated to Bush and the telecommunications companies. (Senator and Presumptive Democratic Presidential Nominee Barack Obama says he will fight to strip telecom immunity from the bill when it gets to the Senate.) And you just know this kicked up a storm in the liberal blogosphere, as well it should. We [...]

The Good News from Iraq

brazenlyliberal — Sat, 22 Jul 2006 12:19:26 +0000

The warmongers complain that nobody ever tells the good news from Iraq. Okay, here’s the good news:

Explosions, Shootings Shatter Calm in Iraq

Seven Shiite workers were gunned down Saturday in a religiously mixed area of west Baghdad, and explosions in the heart of the capital shattered a one-day calm after a ban on private vehicles [...]

Christian vs. Christianist: Oh, what a difference 3 little letters make!

Gary G. is a Christian. He is very involved in his church, reads his bible religiously (so to speak), and believes to the core of his soul that he is “saved” and will one day go to heaven and be filled with joy for all eternity.

Gary’s religious beliefs bring him a sort of peace [...]

Bin Laden Wants al-Zarqawi Body Released

Osama bin Laden called on President Bush in an audiotape released Friday to release the body of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and said Jordan should allow the slain terrorist to be buried in his homeland. In the 19-minute message, bin Laden paid tribute to [...]

Justices: Bush went too far at Guantanamo

The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that President Bush overstepped his authority in creating military war crimes trials for Guantanamo Bay detainees, a rebuke to the administration and its aggressive anti-terror policies. The case, one of the most significant involving [...]

We love you, Rezarta Gashi!

The Big Dawg takes another bite out of the chimp!

Tears rolled down the cheeks of some White House aides as that same questioner, a woman named Rezarta Gashi, expressed gratitude for the U.S.-NATO intervention in Kosovo in 1999.

She gave Bush her thanks, although he wasn’t involved. Bill Clinton was president at the time; Bush [...]

Just when you think he’s embarrassed us as much as he possibly can….

At this morning’s White House press conference, the leader of the free world had this bit of give and take with Peter Wallsten of the Los Angeles Times:

Yes, Peter. Are you going to ask that question with shades on?

Q I can take them off.

THE PRESIDENT: I’m interested in [...]

Podfisk

Gotta be something like lutefisk, no? Apparently not.

Living out in the wilds of Shit-To-Do, Illinois, ourselves, we are limited to dialup service and can’t verify for ourselves that it is

Leola McConnell

The lovely, demure-looking lady at the right is Leola McConnell, Liberal Democratic candidate for Governor of Nevada.

Here’s her campaign website.

Election Projection shows Nevada has been trending Democratic since 1992, so if she takes the August 15 primary, our gal Leola just may pull it off. We can dream, can’t we?

And we want that, [...]

The first American AIDS case was diagnosed. We didn’t know what caused it or how it was spread. All we knew was it was killing people – mostly gays and Haitians. There were no AIDS rides, no marathon runners with sponsors pledging $10/mile for research. Just fear and confusion and abysmal neglect. After all, it [...]

Implausible Deniability

brazenlyliberal — Wed, 31 May 2006 16:34:00 +0000

George Bush didn’t know anything about the slaughter of innocent civilians, including small children, at Haditha until months later when a reporter from Time asked him about it.

It’s hard to be surprised at this claim. The man has made a career of being out of the loop when anything potentially embarrassing was going on.

He [...]

Domino Theory Then and Now: A Lie then, a Lie Now

brazenlyliberal — Sat, 27 May 2006 12:20:51 +0000

The Domino Theory has to be one of the great insanities of 20th Century foreign policy. Or so we thought when we were protesting the Viet Nam War.

Proponents held that if the enemy (in that case communism) was allowed to have power or influence in South Vietnam, Laos, or Cambodia, it would inevitably take [...]

Regrets, I’ve had a few But then again Too few to mention My big, fat Texas mouth Went running wild But I brooked no dissension

But in an unusual admission of a personal mistake, Mr. Bush said he regretted challenging insurgents in Iraq to “bring it on” in 2003, and said the same about his statement that he wanted Osama bin [...]
