Shhhh! No prisons here!

This is becoming a year for admissions. First shrub says flat out that Saddam never had anything to do with 9/11, and now he's come out of the proverbial closet on the CIA's secret prisons.

Wonkette offers this hilarious summation of the scene:

Recap: Terror, Iraq, Terror, Bad People … and oh, by the way, all those secret CIA prisons where U.S. goons torture people? The ones we always denied even existed? Well, uh, yeah, they all exist. We have secret torture prisons all over the world. But it’s OK now, because I have authorized the transfer of 14 brown people to the acknowledged torture prison at Guantanamo Bay. Rock on.

Can't you just see shrub posing solemnly, like Wayne and Garth, and then ever so slowly raising his hand, with only the forefinger and pinky extended?

Oh, and he still wants Congress to make federal agents immune to prosecution. He'll grant the "terrorists" their Geneva Convention rights, but only when it's convenient.

Hopefully, it won't matter soon. As CNN reports, 55% of Americans are pissed off enough about the shrubbies fucking up the war in Iraq that they're likely to vote against any GOP candidate who supports it. Which means (gasp!) that the shrubbies are about to lose Congress and a LOT of flexibility!

If there's one phrase that sums up how I feel about the GOP's abysmal numbers, it would be "boo-yah." Here's hoping shrub's last two years are filled with moments that make him look like this:



Pepperoni pizza today. Extra marinara. And breadstix. Yum.

I take full credit for turning you onto the genius that is "Wonkette." You'd be lost out there in the landlocked hell of the American West, with no clue the East Coast liberal elite could be that catty and excellent all at the same time, if it weren't for me.

Just one more reason you owe me. BIG time. ;)

ps. The legal 1/2 of Wonkette, that left a couple months ago, is back up with a legal gossip blog - probably not all that intriguing for non-corporate whores/law dorks, but there are definitely some gems about outlandish lawsuits, etc. www.abovethelaw.com

You didn't turn me on to Wonkette. It was a professor of mine.

You did help foster my interest, though. I'll give you that.

And yer just so dang cute!
