Christy,

If you, Mr Redd, and the Peanut ever get out to the Bay Area, you’ve got to go up to Santa Rosa and see the Charles Schulz museum. We took The Kid up there about a month ago, and had a blast. (We saw - but passed on - the ice rink Schulz built that sits next door. Next time . . .) I’ve always loved the Snoopy happy dance, but after seeing the museum . . . wow!

Nothing like Crazy Vlog Gal lobbing the “Bush White House foreign policy is antisemitic” stinkbomb after Bolton resigned today. Let the internecine warfare begin…and pass the popcorn.

The Walrus got goo-goo-ka-choobed.

Teehee, I’ll try to keep the schadenfreude to a dull roar.

Here’s a blast from the past!

Oooooooooooooooh I Hate That Rabbit!

Yay — Snoopey dance!

I expect the right wing, used to getting their way on everything, is going to lurch into unhinged territory today.

Big day over there at atlasjuggs. She might get to 4 comments before her post has been up for a whole hour.

pontificator at 12 — hey! Good too see you in these parts. (And yes, I just could not help myself this morning with the Snoopy dance…)

Sweet.

Oh this is rich, here’s the 4th comment.

Your funny Pam! I feel silly because I just realized the this site is a neocon parody! Like Jesus’ General or Stephen Colbert!

I was worried that your insane rants and videos were actually serious. I mean your delusional rants are masterful. John Bolton, a man of Character! That is too rich! “Bad day for America.” I love it!

Keep up the great work and someday you’ll get your own show on Comedy Central!

Luv ya!

Teh ‘Quality Snark’ indicator has been raised to Nukular Redd at FDL this morning.

This is fun.

Okay, if we’ve used the “extended” Snoopy Dance for Bolton, what will we use for Cheney? You have to think about these things!

Here’s Frank Rich in yesterday’s NYTimes about Bush’s sociopathology:

(snip)
As Mr. Bush has ricocheted from Vietnam to Latvia to Jordan in recent weeks, we’ve witnessed the troubling behavior of a president who isn’t merely in a state of denial but is completely untethered from reality. It’s not that he can’t handle the truth about Iraq. He doesn’t know what the truth is.

The most startling example was his insistence that Al Qaeda is primarily responsible for the country’s spiraling violence.

(snip)

But that’s not the half of it. Mr. Bush relentlessly refers to Iraq’s “unity government” though it is not unified and can only nominally govern.

(snip)

When the president persists in talking about staying until “the mission is complete” even though there is no definable military mission, let alone one that can be completed, he is indulging in pure absurdity. The same goes for his talk of “victory,” another concept robbed of any definition when the prime minister we are trying to prop up is allied with Mr. Sadr, a man who wants Americans dead and has many scalps to prove it. The newest hollowed-out Bush word to mask the endgame in Iraq is “phase,” as if the increasing violence were as transitional as the growing pains of a surly teenager. “Phase” is meant to drown out all the unsettling debate about two words the president doesn’t want to hear, “civil war.”

When news organizations, politicians and bloggers had their own civil war about the proper usage of that designation last week, it was highly instructive — but about America, not Iraq. The intensity of the squabble showed the corrosive effect the president’s subversion of language has had on our larger culture. Iraq arguably passed beyond civil war months ago into what might more accurately be termed ethnic cleansing or chaos. That we were fighting over “civil war” at this late date was a reminder that wittingly or not, we have all taken to following Mr. Bush’s lead in retreating from English as we once knew it.

(snip)

In the case of “civil war,” it fell to a morning television anchor, Matt Lauer, to officially bless the term before the “Today” show moved on to such regular fare as an update on the Olsen twins. That juxtaposition of Iraq and post-pubescent eroticism was only too accurate a gauge of how much the word “war” itself has been drained of its meaning in America after years of waging a war that required no shared sacrifice. Whatever you want to label what’s happening in Iraq, it has never impeded our freedom to dote on the Olsen twins.

(snip)

But that election has come and gone, and Mr. Bush is more isolated from the real world than ever. That’s scary. Neither he nor his party has anything to gain politically by pretending that Iraq is not in crisis. Yet Mr. Bush clings to his delusions with a near-rage — watch him seethe in his press conference with Mr. Maliki — that can’t be explained away by sheer stubbornness or misguided principles or a pat psychological theory. Whatever the reason, he is slipping into the same zone as Woodrow Wilson did when refusing to face the rejection of the League of Nations, as a sleepless L.B.J. did when micromanaging bombing missions in Vietnam, as Ronald Reagan did when checking out during Iran-Contra. You can understand why Jim Webb, the Virginia senator-elect with a son in Iraq, was tempted to slug the president at a White House reception for newly elected members of Congress. Mr. Bush asked “How’s your boy?” But when Mr. Webb replied, “I’d like to get them out of Iraq,” the president refused to so much as acknowledge the subject. Maybe a timely slug would have woken him up.

(snip)

Civil war? Sectarian violence? A phase? This much is certain: The dead in Iraq don’t give a damn what we call it.

PLATO RETREATS

twolf1 at 24 — ooh, that’s an original one. *rolls eyes* Are they including members of their own party, you know — REPUBLICANS — who told them to knock it off, they weren’t voting for Bolton and he wasn’t getting out of committee in that “Democrats” moniker? Ouch, painful…NOT.

I got epu’d and want to make this point from previous thread

Oilfieldguy @ 7

Mid-terms, Colbert and Keith O. have shown there is a market for disgust. Time to cash in, media whores.

they did indeed show us there was a market for contempt against those that would use our country as their own personal toy

however it was clear this market was robust years ago, and from the firs olberman “special op ed”, yet the media crawled under the bed and drank their kool aid, only to dispense same koolaid to the rest of this country

they would still be dispensing their kool aid if the repukelicans held majority in even one of the houses

they have been in dereliction of their responsibility as the fourth estate.

we need to make sure that never happens again

WE NEED TO BREAK UP MEDIA CONSOLIDATION

If I were a magical thinker, I would think some kind of harmonic convergence was happening. There is a full moon out and there are only 17 days to the solstice, and after that the days start getting longer, and we already have crocuses coming up out in the pots on the deck, and, and… Bolton exits.

Bet they’ll give Bolton a swell party at the UN on his way out…

And this brings us back to where we got onto this Merry Go Round-

Condi kicked Bolton out of her group and into the UN cause he’s an ASSHOLE- so does she take him back now?

Clusterfuck would have known that if he had ever worked for a living.

From the Post:

President Bush, in a statement, said he was “deeply disappointed that a handful of United States senators prevented Ambassador Bolton from receiving the up or down vote he deserved in the Senate.”

Now, Mr. President, just because you’re the Decider doesn’t mean you get what you want.

Oh, this brings me such joy!

Clusterfuck thinks he was born with the right to an up or down vote!!

Fuckwad!

rwcole — if this were a parliamentary system, George Bush would not survive an “up or down vote.”

Why can’t Pammy just be content with shopping like the rest of the Lawn Guyland yentas?

That Bolton resigned? Just think of it as an added bonus. (As Jesus General said in an e-mail this morning, “Isn’t it kind of like resigning after you’ve already been laid off?”)

not quite;

he wasn’t Lated off, he didn’t quit, he didn’t quite, he didn’t go on vacaction

the was fired by the people we elected to congress

no other way to put it

well, maybe there is;

fires, canned, forced into retirement, gotten rid of

fired fits best

So what horror will they visit upon us for the next nomination?

Pam at Atlas Shrugs for UN Ambassador.

What more could we want.

NRO is calling for Ambassador Ricky Santorum.

Time to get to the bottom of the international man on dog epidemic with that nomination.

-GSD

Went to Atlas Slugs for the first time just now. Here’s my summary of their synopsis:

Bush needs to demonstrate that he is superman strong, ignore the pacifists like Condi and do his Texas swagger and tough talk, then all will be right with the world (except for the fifth column liberal media and the dhimicrats).

Bush’s (war) plan is right - everyone else is wrong and/or disloyal. Bolton quit because Bush’s plans were too benevolent - too much carrot and not enuff stick. Bolton is a great man - was never critical of Bush - even though Bush wanted Bolton to kowtow to the enemy. This was not Bush’s fault (nothing ever is) because
Bush lost his hardliners, shoulda never let Rumsfeld go.

Now there will be way more islamo-a**kissing, which is most hated.

Makes sense, right?

I surmise that what they wish for is a glassing of the entire region.

Scarecrow - Congratulations on your excellent front-pager! Hope it becomes a regular feature.

I am pleased that John Bolton will not be representing me and my fellow United States citizens at the U.N.. But I would not read too much into his resignation. His successor will continue to veto any resolutions that are considered unfriendly to Israel. And the same will be true of any Ambassador that will be appointed by the next President…even if he/she is a Democrat. We’re going to continue to alienate moderates in the Arab world with our Middle East policies.

OT - Republican Sen. Sam Brownback, a Kansan, has taken the first step toward launching a 2008 presidential bid, The Associated Press reports.

Ricky? Dog’s best friend? The UN? And let the WORLD know what kind of nutcases we raise here? Great idea!!

Bolton is kinda like George Costanza or Cosmo Kramer. He never really got the job in the first place, he just showed up at the office. So it’s stretching things a bit to say he’s been laid off or fired.

there are many unemployed Republicans from which to choose a replacement, but I nominate George Macacawitz Allen.

Thanks. The hope was to just let Christy catch up on reading when/as needed. I can’t understand why a mom and full-time blogger doesn’t have time for this. ;)

As it was, Christy had to stay up late fixing what I drafted to fit in the WordPress, which apparently doesn’t like Mr. Gates that much. So I still owe her, big time.

A plan engineered by “Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) to eliminate all extended recesses except for the traditional August break during the 110th Congress may have an added benefit for Democrats,” Roll Call reports.

“It could be a back-door way of preventing President Bush from unilaterally installing controversial nominees in key executive and judicial branch posts through recess appointments, a favorite tool of the president over the past six years,” John Stanton writes.

Conservative columnist Robert Novak wrote about Reid’s plan the other day.

“Sen. Harry Reid, leading the Senate’s new Democratic majority, is framing next year’s schedule in a way that will make it difficult, if not impossible, for President Bush to give recess appointments to nominees blocked for confirmation,” Novak wrote.

(Raw Story)

God bless John Bolton for being too cowardly to continue his existence as the biggest asshole on the planet. Xmas came early!

That works. I see that despite the rightwingers branding Happy Feet as liberal/enviro “propaganda,” the movie was #1 this weekend. The sky is warming falling and a whole generation is at risk of thinking.

Scarecrow at 76 — Was more than happy to help out. :)

Further amusement from Der Shrubbenfuhrer in the CNN/AP piece:

“He served his country with extraordinary dedication and skill, assembling coalitions that addressed some of the most consequential issues facing the international community,” the president said. “During his tenure, he articulately advocated the positions and values of the United States and advanced the expansion of democracy and liberty.

“Ambassador Bolton led the successful negotiations that resulted in unanimous Security Council resolutions regarding North Korea’s military and nuclear activities. He built consensus among our allies on the need for Iran to suspend the enrichment and reprocessing of uranium,” Bush added. “His efforts to promote the cause of peace in Darfur resulted in a peacekeeping commitment by the United Nations. He made the case for United Nations reform because he cares about the institution, and wants it to become more credible and effective.”

Notwithstanding all of the amazingly mendacious statements in the above paragraphs, does anybody seriously believe that Bush coherently spat out all of those highfalutin’ words?

Hackworth,

There is also a new subtext to many wingers. They are literally hoping for a really tragic terrorist attack(my own colleague was hoping for a Beslan style school massacre)in order to really prove to all of these “sleepwalking Americans” just how evil the Muslims are.

Nice mindset eh.

-GSD

Not that 9/11 wasn’t really tragic mind you.

I’m actually dreading who Bush might nominate next. There are quite a few far right crazies looking for jobs at the moment. Katherine Harris for UN Ambassador? Santorum? Conrad Burns? If Bush goes for a newly ex-Congressperson, please let it be Chaffee if only because he doesn’t appear to be insane. That’s a might low bar, I know.

The UN- a plot of fertile ground for planting dead goopers?

Bwahahahahahaha! OMG…teh funny.

“Despite the support of a strong bipartisan majority of senators, Ambassador Bolton’s confirmation was blocked by a Democrat filibuster, and this is a clear example of the breakdown in the Senate confirmation process,” Perino said.

In a statement released by the White Bush, President Bush said he was “deeply disappointed” that some Senators “chose to obstruct” Bolton’s confirmation.

“I am deeply disappointed that a handful of United States Senators prevented Ambassador Bolton from receiving the up or down vote he deserved in the Senate,” Bush said in the statement. “They chose to obstruct his confirmation, even though he enjoys majority support in the Senate, and even though their tactics will disrupt our diplomatic work at a sensitive and important time.”

“This stubborn obstructionism ill serves our country, and discourages men and women of talent from serving their Nation,” Bush added.

Because I do not think that the words mean what they think they mean — especially given that Bolton never made it out of the foreign relations committee because Senators from BOTH sides of the aisle on multiple occasions found him unfit and unqualified for the damn job.
