05/31/2003 Archived Entry: "'There will be Hell to pay.'"

'There will be Hell to pay.'

It chaps my hide that The Thug Cabal is beginning to admit failure in Iraq, after spending the run-up to the invasion calling people who said the exact same thing unpatriotic. While I hope for no further loss of American life, I wish with all my heart that these chickenhawk war-mongering sons of bitches are made to pay for lying - lying to the American people (everyone involved), lying undr oath to Congress (Powell), lying to the UN (Powell, Negroponte), lying to the diplomatic corps (Rice), lying to everyone. Send that bill right to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue - and copy it to the Crawford ranch.

Some of President Bush's top advisers now fear the war in Iraq is becoming a political, diplomatic and military mess, instead of being the centerpiece of the president's re-election campaign that they had hoped for.

"The postwar period in Iraq is messy," said one senior official, speaking on the condition of anonymity. "We haven't found what we said we'd find there, and there are unpleasant questions about assumptions we made and intelligence we had.

"If many more months go by and our troops are still there, the Iraqis are still fighting each other and us and we still haven't found any WMD (weapons of mass destruction), there will be hell to pay," the official added.

I still hope for a brave news department to do a blockbuster expose, but I won't hold my breath.

Sorry but totally off topic, I just got banned at DU (after 1 year monetary support) for questioning a mods bad decision and locking of a thread which was subsequently scrubbed of all mod comments and unlocked. When I complained that this was an unacceptable white-wash, I was banned, I suppose for questioning a mod. I am sorry I ever supported this site. They are no better than the GOP. Pass it on.
Now back to our regularly scheduled program.

Not to worry, dear friends, Bush's re-election in '04 is a foregone conclusion. Our Presidential Imbecile gives a whole new meaning to the word "teflon."

If, during a major, televised presidential news conference, Bush pulled down his pants and took a dump right there on the podium, there is no doubt in my mind that that defecation would be hailed by our harlot media as an act of "unparalleled heroism by a great American stateman and an unequivocal message to the Evil Doers that America's resolve in the War on Terrorism is undiminished."

And after that news conference, President Imbecile's approval rating would rise from 70% to 75%. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Oh right, boo hoo.

Sac666,

At the risk of sounding uninformed, what is "DU"? Does "mod" = moderator? Finally what are "locking" and "unlocking"?

Thanks,

Metro99

Definitions:

At the risk of sounding uninformed, what is "DU"?

Democratic Underground - a rather large liberal message board.

Does "mod" = moderator?

Bingo!

Finally what are "locking" and "unlocking"?

On moderated fora such as DU (or my main haunt, BartCop Forum, moderators have the capability of 'locking' a thread to keep people from adding comments to it.

You oughta visit BC Forum, Metro. Plenty of like-minded folks - I think you'd enjoy it.

Many thanks, Blah3.

By the way, yesterday I checked out all the Flash movies you and Soundman posted on TBTM. Very, very excellent product.

Re Met99's first comment, remember the "So & so's an Asshole" comment Bush made during his campaign? He was then hailed similarly by the right, including the "Christians," that he was 'heroic' for speaking his true mind, and how dare the liberal media invade his personal aside with 'Big Time' Cheney!

If only we could have been prescient then... it wouldn't have made any difference, sigh...

The power of the Mighty Wurlitzer will not be trifled with.
