Rewarding Failure
Medals for Bremer and Tenet? Just SO fucking "W". Don'tcha think? Who's next? Rummy?
Its all just a part of W's plan to expand the mining industry. We need to create a need for metal ~ what did you have in mind armored vehicles?
Bush giving these clowns the medal of freedom is like something out of "1984". The white house and their crew are in their own little world. Everything is going well in Iraq---just look into my eyes and repeat -everything is going well in iraq. Another 12,000 troops, just ignore that. 1299 dead and not one wmd found. Propganda. They want to start using better propaganda on the arabs, christ all they need is an arabic speaking karl rove and they would be all set.
WHAT!!!???!!! THey gave that incompetent douche tenet a medal.. Uhh fucking PuUUUUUU:LLLLLLLEEEEAAAAZEEEE!!!! Im ashamed to be a republican today.. man
Patrick, you should be ashamed every day.
Hey now .. play nice.
Score, Negman!
Score, Negman!
Thats cool.. he'll still owe me 50 bones in four years.. 
We'll see.
Very gratifying to start this thread and THEN see Richard Cohen's column in yesterday's NY Daily News (his 'home' paper is the Washington Post), complete with the exact same headline.
His take: Who's next? Kerik? Great job with the Iraqui Police Force, Bernie.*
Bush becomes more of a Communist Party copycat with each passing week. These failures "wear medals while ignoring harsh facts."
*When Kerik went to Iraq he said it was for 6 months 'or as long as it takes'. He stayed for 3, as long as it took, coincidently, for renovations to his home.
I bet his personal shitstorm is just getting started.
