So, is Bush’s speech to the Radio and Television Correspondents’ Association dinner taking shape as the latest DNC/Katie Couric-driven faux outrage? — a feeble-wristed follow-up to the Donk’s prematurely moribund affaire d’Clarke?
Because I just turned on “The View” expecting to hear Joy Behar kvetching about her vagina but was instead greeted by a lot of yentastic hand-wringing about Evil Georgie’s having sent freshfacedyoungmenandwomen off to the Babylonian slaughter — illegally, mind you!– then chortling with glee when these braveboysandgirls returned home in “bits.”
So, y’know, God damn you, Mr. Bush…!
…Sigh. Nearly eight months to go, and these mock-earnest media yutzes have already become parodies of themselves. Much like Oliver Willis, come to think of it…
I just thought it was in bad taste because I think those damn things are still out there and nobody seems to be paying attention to it.
Yeah, I took you to be sincere, Alex.
But unfortunately, not all those acting outraged are genuinely bothered by Bush’s remarks; instead, they’re attempting yet again to manufacture an outrage, because beating Bush is the only thing that matters to them, politically.
Meh. Yawn. Sigh.
When I read about this, I took it as Bush and Co. laughing at the media’s (and others’
obsession with finding (or not finding) WMDs, and thus missing the real point of what’s going on in Iraq right now. But that’s probably just because I’m one of those rabid dittoheads or wingnuts or whatever they’re called.
Pass the ANWR baby-seal, will you?
And, um…your point? (You know, the ‘funny’ part?)
I thought the whole ‘Behar-talking-about-her-vagina image was kinda funny, Peggy—but then, I’m not a humorless partisan asshat, so, y’know, I can’t be certain what’s going to tickle your hooves.
“Asshat.” Whoa, stunningly original, Jeff.
Don’t worry, I’ll move along.(Life’s to short, etc., etc….)
Well, I hadn’t had my coffee yet Peggy, so, y’know, there’s that…
(Life’s to short, etc., etc….)
— apparently TOO short to spell correctly
Yep, I needed me some coffee at that hour, two, uh, to, uh too. (My apologies to America, for my poor spelling).
