The Wednesday ‘BushWhack’ing

Back from vacation… are YOU ready to get back into it? I’m not… but here goes;

• Sen. Obama continues his overseas tour…
• Screw the PUMA’s; you’re either with us or against us. If you’re against us, you’re in line with Joe Lieberman and John McCain… so you’re our enemy…
• Trying to take some of the wind out of Obama’s sails with his as-of-now successful overseas tour, there’s a sense that Sen. McCain is close to naming his running mate. With a scheduled meeting tomorrow with Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, the thoughts are he’s zeroing in on him and that the announcement will come this week, so stay tuned. Or not… I could care less who he picks.
• The Bush(whacked) Administration tried to re-define Carbon Dioxide in an attempt to save power plants from emissions regulations… (wow, this administration really does care about the environment, don’t they?)
• Brent Scowcroft, National Security Adviser to President Bush Part 1 said that “President” Bush II needs to stop threatening Iran because; “by mentioning that threat, ‘we legitimize the use of force…and may tempt the Israelis’ to carry out such a mission.” (Wow, a conservative that has use of his brain, who would have thunk it?)
• The New York Post, excuse me, the Rupert Murdoch owned New York Post, published an op-ed by McCain that was previously rejected by the NY Times because it didn’t make sense and didn’t offer anything new. Read it… the Times was right in denying it… we’ve heard this crap from McCain and Bush for a LONG time…
• Fox “News” host Brian Kilmeade; “I think there’s just as many convoy attacks in America as there are in Iraq…” Wait, what???
• And have we mentioned? That the execs at Aflac are smarter than the average company? The insurance giant announced that it will no longer advertise on radio host Michael Savage’s show after he said that autism is “a fraud” where “99 percent of the cases, it’s a brat who hasn’t been told to cut the act out.” (Savage is an absolute tool who not only has the intelligence of a gnat, but who has also said more derogatory things than Don Imus ever has, and yet he still has his job. Mind-boggling, isn’t it? Though it is good to hear that Super Talk FM in Mississippi has cancelled Savage's show on all of its Mississippi stations because of his inane comments, too bad more aren’t doing the same…)
