A shower and a bunch of rails

The GOP machine is spinning so fast now that parts are flying out of it, it’s like the last scene in some cheap sci-fi movie were something has gone wrong with the evil mastermind’s machine and it is now grinding itself to pieces while the master mind screams nooooooo! And is then killed by the collapse of said machine after his underlings are killed by parts flying off the machine.

Latest victim is Mr. Rice who the day after she said she could not recall the meeting that is a big moment in Woodard’s new book on Iraq “State of Denial” (I read he had considered calling it Chaos which is pretty damning in itself. ) get tossed under a bus by the state department that confirms that the meeting took place. It seems Tenet was asked to brief Ashcroft on this (in July). And shortly after that Ashcroft stopped taking civilian flights. Which is a story for another time. Suffice to say that Ms. Rice has been shown to be a complete liar. (By her state department people which has got to sting)

As a side note I find it fascinating to watch W’s apologists try to paint Woodward as some kind of wild eyed liberal loon when they just loved the two butt kissing portraits of W he had previously written. Meantime I wonder how many ghosts visited Woodward to remind him that as a reporter his primary service should be to the truth not power.

Meantime the whole Greg Foley thing is making me need more hot showers than is good for my skin. Very very bad rumors are floating around the net that Foley did not stop at asking via IM what kind of underwear these boys were wearing (ooooohhh ick) and actual contact was (sweet merciful Jesus what the hell is wrong with these people? 17 year olds 16 year olds? Ahhhhh.) involved.

Meantime some of the enablers of the GOP have been trying to blame the pages, that Foley was led on. Right, even if you are a gay 17 year old, is a 52 year old man is going to push your buttons? I think not.

God this is so wrong, I feel like a cradle robber when I talk to a woman less than 30 years old, let alone 25 but I am not a predator.

That’s bad enough but what is worse is that the GOP leadership thought keeping Foley’s name out of the papers was more important than the kids. Just like the Roman Catholic Church when confronted by a similar (but much wider scandal) decided that saving the corporation was more important.

That’s the crime – as bad as Foley was (W said it was “disgusting” one of the few times I find myself in agreement with him) the really disgusting part is they decided to look the other way. Bastards.

Meantime W in a speech in Nevada (one of the few states were people won’t toss eggs at him the moment said the Democrats weren’t competent to run congress – which translates into I am scared shitless of the Democratic party getting their hands on the Subpoena power of congress.

God the whole sick corrupt greed stupid lot of them needs to be run out of town on rails.

The pic? Just to remind myself what a special and rare thing these monkeys are trying to destroy with their fear and greed.
