Yes the press clapped like a pack of trained seals for Bush at the Gridiron dinner.
Someone texted me this line from Kay Bailey Hutchinson at the event:
Going to be great convention. We've already started outreach in the airport.
Tap tap tap....

Tap tap tap....
Jane!
Don’t do any tapdancing in the men’s room.
Caligula, one of W’s heroes or at least one of his prime role models.
Good evening, Jane.
Tap, Tap, Tap…! ;-)
omg, if KBH is telling Larry Craig jokes, the GOP must know they are toast.
Both Matthews and Olbermann came down pretty hard on this; I had to wonder if they aren’t so happy with David Gregory getting Tucker’s hour.
Hiya Jane!
Sing it dubya!
Don’t miss the opening act on TDS tonight.
They’ll be pretending to pick up
pieces of toilet paperRepuke flyers under the stall walls…Oh Gwad! That video! That’s unbelievable!
A little OT, but did Ian predict the Feds $200 Billiion bailout today in last Saturday’s column?
Caligula made his horse a senator. George has the whole Rethugican bunch. Horse probably had more sense.
Don’t know if they are or aren’t but I have no intention of watching. What was MSRNC Thinking?
Geez. Were there jokes about watching out for falling bridges on the way to the convention, too?
talk about having absolutely no soul
I thought Shrub was scared of horses, tho…! ;-)
LOL.
(I wonder if she’ll don her old cheerleading gear, pom poms and twirl for the nice folks.)
LOL again.
It’s the other way around.
hi jane-
yeah, the press clapped, just like people clap for an outgoing losing coach…..
i’m headed for bed, but wanted to post this for the late niters, especially mary mccurnin—i emailed it to her, for her to post, but don’t know if the email was the right one……….
it has to do with a running joke that mary does….everyone does.
when i saw the picture, i laughed and laughed and laughed……….it’s from march 11th, and i think everyone will get the joke from there. too funny.

My Bad! 8-)
…here comes Scooter fineally free of the prosecuter…
He might as well just sung that break what law you want, no prblemo!
it’s the
”iz a pet taxi” one
My gawd, that song is such a giant fuck-you to the American people - it’s pretty damned hard to make me truly, actively angry - but that one does it.
Mother. Fucker. Celebrating his illegailty, and failure to be caught or called on it by a lily-livered Democratic Congress, makes my blood boil.
And all of the good little R’s laugh along, because that’s what they figure they’re supposed to do, being born Republican and without the humor gene and all…
Mother. Fucker.
Iron-clad proof the Spitzer sting was fueled by Repubs within the DOJ:
The news broke on a Monday morning instead of a Fri evening.
Nooo… Not the clown car…!
Yeah, its the bratty, we pulled a fast one on you fools and now we get to go home…suckers..
Big kudos go out to the person who taped that with their cell phone. It was supposed to be “off the record”. Heh heh.
Applauding the decline of the Republic…
It’s not what their fathers taught them, I suppose.
Yeah, its the bratty, we pulled a fast one on you fools and now we get to go home…suckers..
yeah, and how does that make *us* look, being bested by a fucking moron?
Perhaps we could play concern trolls and send thousands of emails to GOP folk attending their convention:
WARNING! Do not attempt to travel overland in the Minneapolis area. Due to failing bridges you’re much safer taking a helicopter from the airport to the convention center.
Like fucking morons.
YES!!!!!!!!!! ct!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the clown car!!!!!!!!!!!
i about died! i was reading the top 50 blogs article at the globe site, and there was the cheezeburger site at number 4, and thought, hadn’t been on there in a while, so, i did, and CLOWN CAR!!!!!!\OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!
ROFL right now! wheezing………..
can you make sure to pass that around for a while?
i’m not around as much as you are……..how hilarious, eh?
i wanted to make sure she saw it.
i hafta check out now, up early tomorrow……..
gonna be hard to go to sleep now, i’m laughing so hard.
take care.
A pack of disgusting pigs. Courtiers, knaves and lackeys.
Laughing as the nation spins into the toilet.
-G
He predicted an even bigger (500B) bailout of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. That is still to come. Today’s action was a credit bailout which resulted in a crash in the price of Treasury bonds.
Unbelievable. Wouldn’t you think a well-educated and free press would stand up and leave instead of clapping and laughing? Does anyone know who among the press was there? Anyone we know and hate?
Aloha, dmac!
fixed it, heh, heh…
Laughing as the nation spins into the toilet.
familiar territory.
See Craig, Larry.
This will drive the holier-than-thou ones nuts:Star Tribune
*sigh* look to where we have sunk as a nation
“The “fuss” you made over Harriet and Brownie“…
The fuss? The fuss?
What a completely vicious prick. People died in front of our eyes of dehydration…..
Impeach the prick.
This video, that wasn’t ever supposed to get out, reveals everything…
Plus, he’s saying that Cheney is walking away with documents he’s withholding….
Grrrrrrr……..worse than Grrrrrr….
I can’t believe it. I understand how Bush could do it: high-style fuck-you’s are his thing…but how could they sit there and laugh at that? The only appropriate response would have been shocked silence.
is there a transcript of the song yet?
Two words: Good Germans.
And Kay, the RNC Welcoming Committee will be there to meet you, assbites.
It all goes back to cocktail weenies, quail wings, massages with happy endings by Gannyguck, teh fabulous parties and now McCrazy’s fantastic dry ribs.
*sigh* look to where we have sunk as a nation
I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that he had a copy of the Constitution with him, and did a mock wiping of his ass with it as part of “the show”.
Ha!
Group discounts available!
Bush thinks Katrina is funny.
I had to listen to that again to make sure I heard it right.
Motherfucker!
LS, I think you may have hit on it.
Al Franken’s opponent has dropped out. He’ll become a Senator.
…are people talking ’bout that men’s room at Northern Crossing at MSP International Airport? Of the Larry Craig fame? Ha…
‘twould be interesting to have the attendance list for that Gridiron dinner. Just to compare to their writing hereafter…doncha know….
hi foxman!
Hi, Teddy!
Yeah I got some phone photos and audio from the Gridiron but I have a new phone and can’t figure out how to get them off of it.
Oh well, it’s just of Bush telling more lame jokes.
I do believe that’s what she’s talking about.
I like your line better than mine. I’m swiping it if that’s okay.
The fuss over Brownie….The fuss…
Unfuckingbelievable.
500,000 people displaced…
The fuss….
At least 2,000 people dead (we’ll never know)
The fuss…
Don’t worry your fucking beautiful mind W, because you will go down in history as the most disgraceful sadistic president in the history of this nation.
Spit!!
Franken’s primary opponent has dropped out.
Right, right.
ok, here’s where I console and calm myself a little bit. Updated results for the Congressional seat of the late Julia Carson:
Name Votes Vote %
Andre D. Carson (D) 33,267 53.21%
Jon Elrod (R) 27,389 43.81%
Sean Shepard (L) 1,830 2.93%
412 of 445 precincts reporting
Good job Indianapolis! Andre appears to be a good man, and kudos to those in charge for getting the results of this paper-ballot out so quickly.
Good news.
Hey Kirk!
Can you do a long distance diagnosis of Spitzer? (if Frist can do it, you can too…)
That would be his Democratic primary opponent.
He still has to run against Coleman. And he may well win!
And wouldn’t it be great to get Norm (where am I?) Coleman out of there.
Yeah, thanks, I jumped the gun…I hope he rolls over Coleman. I believe he will.
the doctors had to Euthanize the people TOO SICK TO MOVE…the HORROR!
By all means, you’re the Proprietrix! *g*
from Kay Bailey Hutchinson at the event:
Going to be great convention. We’ve already started reach-arounds in the airport.
i shall never forget the night of Katrina,i must have posted 50 times to get gallon plastic milk bottles and fill with water and 6 drops of clorox….those poor poor people,oh im sick again
I know….but it is just “fuss”….
I feel sick.
If Jesse Ventura can be elected Gov., Franken stands an excellent chance…!
I’d be euphoric if Al Franken made it to the Senate. He wrote a book called “Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot”. How can you not love that?
I’m not sure if “making decisions by phallus” has a diagnostic category….
GD Pelosi….impeach these insane sociopaths
Franken is a very, very smart man.
Yeah, thanks, I jumped the gun…I hope he rolls over Coleman. I believe he will.
Well if nothing else, I hope that there are debates. Those should be pay-per-view… heh.
Uhhh… Wouldn’t it be categorized as being Male…? *g*
I’m disgusted. Utterly disgusted. Impunity meets the State News Agency.
I’m not sure if “making decisions by phallus” has a diagnostic category….
I think that’s called “male”
I stopped in at bathroom on way to Paris–and also on my way back. There were quite a few tourists in there already…The Rethugs will have their hands full–so to speak–in August…
I stopped in there just to piss…*g*
Remember when Pelosi said something to the effect that we didn’t know the half of it? I’ve seen all I can stomach. These motherf*ckers are a disgrace to humanity. Enablers like Pelosi are almost as bad.
You owe me a Coke…! ;-)
think that’s called “male”
I beg your pardon. I haven’t thought about sex in….oh - never mind.
I was thinking more along the line of Ian’s Bonus prediction number 14), the Fed taking over the paper of bad mortgages.
i’m already pissed off and this just breaks my heart.
No Coke, Pepsi.
And I was chastised for wanting revenge on these sonsabitches. NOT.
I want serious,get it while it’s hot, revenge for what they have done and sit there and laugh about.Fuck that kumbaya shit.
Come on November.
That’ll work! *g*
I still get a kick outta your handle…especially given the topic at hand (so to speak)..
well then, obviously the medical community is going to have to define that category in order to understand the actions of the Cheney/Bush administration.
i shall never fotget the HIDEOUS TORTURE that was Katrina,dying of thirst,old people,babies
I like Robin Williams take on it … “why did god give man both a brain and a p***s, but only enough blood to run one of them at a time?” … or something along those lines
Bush: I mean the Euphrates river is so filled with blood…
Media stooges: How filled is it…..
Nothing but contempt.
-G
they think they got the world by the short curlies
I think W thinks We the People are just a bunch of whiney jerks making a big fuss over nothing.
That man is completely deranged. He is Sociopathic or something. He has no feelings or conscience at all. This video is proof.
The Piper is a Madman!!!
Dubya can’t pronounce Yoo-fraytees less’n they spell it like ‘at.
yes i do,he mocks the UNFORTUNATE
This is just my own opinion, and I don’t like it, but I think come November the press and the Democratic leadership will push hard for “national unity”. And I don’t think electing Obama, Clinton, Edwards, Richardson, Dodd, Kucinich or any of them would have made a difference. We may get a few trials of some low level operatives, but that’s about it.
…while Rome burns…
i shall never fotget the HIDEOUS TORTURE that was Katrina,dying of thirst,old people,babies
Well you’re obviously not ready to run for president as a Republican.
And I apologize ahead of time - it’s not a joking matter - just reality.
Big mistake in the long run.
you know everybody in that room,has no financial worries
When I saw this I thought at first whats new, and still there was a slow burn that started as I thought of the media lap dogs cheering this on. I had hope this gang would have been rounded up, but no they dance and joke about the destruction and misery they spread around they world.
We may get a few trials of some low level operatives, but that’s about it.
I applaud your optimism…
i went thru Andrew and,Rita…IT DID NOT HYAVE TO BE that way
The writing has been on the wall for a long while. It sickens me too, but I think you are correct. Unity and moving on will be the course of the day.
hey argo - nice to see you again - how ya doing?
OT, but does anyone here know whether Rick Noriega has a legitimate shot at knocking off the execrable John Cornyn in November?
don’t forget looking forward, not backward
and ASSCROFT will walk away with A COOL 50 MILLION in a NO BID CONTRACT for his troubles…peeps
Good I had to take a break for things political, for things historical good to read you all.
Thanks much. Line swiped.
My dog has the loudest stomach tonight, I’m gonna have a hard time sleeping with all that noise (even post-pepto).
in fact truth be told ive gone thru20 hurricanes in my lifetime…never anything like WANTON neglect
can she have a piece of white toast?
Give’em an ear scratch or two, for me! 8-)
token snores and makes a plop noise that sounds just like a faucet dripping.
i did not know there was puppy-pepto.
Yeah, and then joking about it…just like the WMD story…behind closed doors when he’s with “his base”, he’s one big mofo, that is for sure.
Evil, evil, evil.
Throw out beach balls to a gaggle of the MSM press corps and watch them balance them on their noses. This is one group of seals that are deserving of being skinned.
