The NYT Caucus Blog has a behind the podium photo of Bush’s talking points today at the new Press Room opening.
The reason I bring it to y’all y’all’s attention is: CHECK OUT THE FONT!
It’s like 48 fuckin’ points big. That’s right — well, ok, you probably knew this already — but our President apparently can’t read anything that isn’t formatted for kindergarten. I mean, seriously, that typface makes the print in “My Pet Goat” look small.
What’s with Giuliani’s unerring instinct for connecting to people right before they implode (See Viiters, D)? Or is it that Republicans are all walking around in a continual state of near-implosion, suspended forever between cheating and getting caught?
I can’t play the video on this post, because it will wake up Mr. LS, but I did see the FDNY representative tonight on Tweety. He blasted Ghouliani for not fixing the inter-fire department communications after 1993, and said that the equipment bought during Ghouliani was non-functional and had to be shelved prior to 9/11, which resulted in the firefighters dying due to lack of communication between each other as they were forced to use the 1993 equipment. Old news, but new again.
In tomorrow’s NYT, Nicholas Kristof does the math.
We can’t afford universal health care at home — but we can afford more than $10 billion a month so that American troops can be maimed in a country where they aren’t wanted? If we take the total eventual cost of the Iraq war, that sum could be used to finance health care for all uninsured Americans for perhaps 30 years.
Nice little talking point there, I’d say. Is it too much to hope that some Dem will pick up on this? Aaah, don’t answer that–silly question.
Great video. I hope this airs on every teevee across this country. I’ve never bought the america’s mayor bullshit. Thank God most people are starting to understand the republic party is morally bankrupt and incapable of telling the truth.

He’s blind as a bat.

Just reading about “Western Road trips” in the last thread. All of those mentioned are good drives. If you like some speed, Rt50 “the Loneliest Road in America” is safe for less than social behavior. The PCH in a two seater is great.
Love for paramedics and firefighters, certainly. Cops? Not so much. Too many a**holes with too much power. Yes, I know, there are lots of hard working honest cops who do a dangerous job for too little pay; problem is, the bad ones still have all that power.
Sorry, Sixstringslingr, I take exception to that remark. I’ve worked with police officers for 23 years (along with firefighters and paramedics, we’re a full-service public safety agency) and the vast majority are on the job for all of the right reasons.
oh, those beloved NY accents of my youth….
Mop the floor with that soiled rag of a ghouliani, my good citymen, and toss it on the toxic waste dump where it belongs.
Took me 9 months to pass through all the entrance tests, background exams, etc before I was hired at my police department.
Yes, there are bad apples - just as there are in all professions. A proper background examination and no lessening of standards is the key to keeping the bad apples out. Along with a zero tolerance attitude by the Chief who would not put up with even a hint of abusive tactics.

I’m guessing the latter, though I did wonder about the former.
So does anyone know? Is Fuckwit McGhee really blind as a bat?
It’s the only alternative explanation I could come up with. I mean, that font really is huge.
Personally, I think he just needs the text that big because he’s got the reading comprehension of a 5 year old, though that’s actually scary enough that for just this once, I’d really prefer to be wrong.
Suzanne - wow, right near Ben Lomond! I love hiking there.
I’ll be down in Santa Cruz at the end of the month for a few weeks. If you happen to be interested in contemporary classical music like this, email me at news_4_muse at hot mail daht com. I’ll be happy to hook you up with tix to a concert.

And that 24 hours after the gold from the Bank of Nova Scocia was found, there was no more looking for bodies. It was a huge amount of gold, and the Ghoul had been publicly saying that he was all about finding the bodies, when in fact, they were looking for riches.
JGabriel - (This is not a Foley joke) Funny thing is you never see him turn a page when giving a speech. Although i have seen photo of him with glasses, they didn’t seem to be thick enough to justify that point size without them.
Well, I knew somebody would take exception and that’s fine. However, long histories of racist cops in Detroit and LA (just to name two cities off the top of my head), several civilians in NY killed by cops (not to mention the one tortured by cops), the Rampart Division scandal in LA, on and on and on. Like I said, I know that there are plenty of good, honest cops on the force. There are, unfortunately, too many instances of bad or corrupt cops in many cities across our nation. I inherently trust firefighters and paramedics; I don’t trust cops until I’ve gotten to know them.
The hosing of Rudy (instead of referring to it as swiftboating)
This is going to get really nasty … Rudy has made some derogatory comments
against the Firefighters who criticized him and they’re pushing back with this video.
Who will win American Idol - Repug Edition ? *g*
Great video. I hope this airs on every teevee across this country. I’ve never bought the america’s mayor bullshit. Thank God most people are starting to understand the republic party is morally bankrupt and incapable of telling the truth.
And Ghouliani really ought to get dentures that fit so he doesn’t sound so awful telling his lies.

Exactly Loo Hoo, that was actually the more shocking part of the report! Truly shocking!!
Either we’re all pretty touchy tonight, or folks are going to lengths to push our buttons. I don’t normally see us with the claws out the way they have been the last couple of threads. Oy.

Hear Hear !!!
A couple of my best friends are Cops, or as we call them up here … Peace Officers …
… they are the frontline defenders of our peace and freedom and they deserve our full respect …
… they certainly have mine !
JGabriel,
That’s how my grandpa needed shopping lists written, or he’d miss an item.
My younger son used to need a card under lines of text in a book, because of ADD.
One of Bush’s Harvard Business School Prof’s came out and said as a student Bush was opinionated, obnoxious , and stupid. It’s the same “W” we know and love.
Bush’s talking points feature that same kind of underling too.
Maybe Bush has ADD. It guess it would fit in with everything else we’ve seen and heard from the man.
Either we’re all pretty touchy tonight, or folks are going to lengths to push our buttons. I don’t normally see us with the claws out the way they have been the last couple of threads. Oy.
Weeeellll….let’s see if I can think of anything that might make someone “tense”….ahemmmmm
1. During the Conyers hearing, Valerie Plame Wilson was accused or perjury by Issa and he said she and her husband would be asking for pardons from the president.
2. Fred Fielding sent out orders from Bush that Harriet Miers is not to attend or testify at the hearing tomorrow.
3. Lieberman put through a “Sense of the Senate” that got passed 97-0 against Iran, upping the ante for the country to go to war.

There certainly is a lot of teledrama portraying rank-and-file cops as good.
Well, this should be good for a wry chuckle or two: I’ve got mail from the Cato Institute.
I thought about making a web site just to host copies of political letters (fear and fund raising).. If I did i would have to add space for correspondence such as what the Cato sends out.

Let me know when you’re coming to Toronto … I’ll see if I can’t find a place with heavenly chocolates …
It’s a deal!
If you ever come to visit Detroit, give me a holla. (I know that no one ever comes to Detroit on vacation. I don’t take it personally).
Actually, I do want to come there and watch the Tigers play … and some Michigan alumni
keep Wolverineing badgering me to join them for a college football game and tailgate
party in the fall … so much to do, so little time … *g*
Suzanne, the work filters are funny things. If I can get to the weather link on the intranet home page, that link has links to various news sites, including HuffPo. HuffPo links me to here. I can’t just type in the Lake’s addy into my browser, as it will tell me I’m denied access. But, even with a link, facebook and youtube are generally out of bounds. I take what I can get…it’s free.
Thank you all for the indulgence tonight, letting me blather on about my pride in public safety. It’s not just a job, it’s a vocation. And on that note, good night all, and peace…
LL,
You don’t know how comforting it is to have someone calm and competent on the other side of the phone in an emergency. Or maybe you do. But thank you!
I think it must be a very hard job.

You didn’t miss much just; one step closer to the Iran war. 97-0..I can’t fucking believe it!!!
Even the Dems have bought into “creative destruction”".

Hey TRex.

Rudy’s dirty. He’s like a sleaze magnet.

To avoid inserting your comment in the middle of the comment you are quoting, be sure to scroll down to the very bottom of the submit comment box.
what you are looking for is a < carrot thingie following by a slash / and the the word blockquote followed by a mirror image carrot thingie.</p>
