I’m not sure it qualifies as news that Bush is a fake…fake Texan, fake Christian, fake president…

…Bush said Wednesday at a conference of hedge fund managers in Las Vegas.

Still catering to the base, eh, George? Motherfucker.

To answer your question, just another chorus of “How ‘Ya Gonna Keep ‘Em Down on the Farm Now That They’ve Seen Paree” Please

If we close down the hedges– the destroyers of wealth– that would be just one significant improvement in our present circumstance.

Fat chance of that happening, I’m sorry to say.

I’ll bet that souffle tasted like humble pie.

Boxturtle (At least, I hope it did)

I hope GW doesn’t feel too deflated

He has egg on his face over this

Der Shrubbenfuhrer doesn’t know the meaning of the word “humble.” He thinks it’s an insect that shouldn’t be able to fly.

That’s rich.

EvilDrPuma @ 5: I like to say it anyway but you’ll appreciate this.

Not sure that W can risk going to Paree any more. Might be picked up for torture.

Wonder if he had the Truffle-Infused Mushroom souffle.

He was never known as a globetrotter, except of course when he was dodging bad economic news at home.

OT but one more grab of our rights

INDIANAPOLIS | Overturning a common law dating back to the English Magna Carta of 1215, the Indiana Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Hoosiers have no right to resist unlawful police entry into their homes.
In a 3-2 decision, Justice Steven David writing for the court said if a police officer wants to enter a home for any reason or no reason at all, a homeowner cannot do anything to block the officer’s entry.

True dat. Did he even have a passport when he was running for prez?

There’s a case bound for SCOTUS, no bout adoubt it. Violation of the 4th Amendment on its face.

Got a link for that article?

That might happen to him just going to Canada soon enough as well (see “April 2011: Canada can’t ignore alleged crimes against humanity” here).

I’m sure obama will make sure he’s got a diplomatic passport somehow. His last trip to Europe may have been a close call, depending on what you read.

I believe there is (are) group(s) that is (are) ready to file paperwork for a warrant if he’ll just go someplace where they can serve it.

Boxturtle (I think he can only travel safely to Paraguay and Israel)

200 Quatloos say the supremes will vote 5-4 to uphold the ruling.

Boxturtle (It might go 6-3…I don’t trust Kagin)

I’d like to see a link to that one too.

I think

at a conference of hedge fund managers in Las Vegas.

should be the headline and the theme of the post.

Eating souffle? No surprise there for a 2%er.

I’d like to see this one.

So does he always have a secure phone with him, or did Obama have to get all cryptic like Leon Pannetta did with DiFi?

Subtext: somebody (hedge fund managers) is still willing to pay (a lot, I’ll bet) to hear what this miserable failure of a fuckup of a fraud of a weasel has to say.

I’d like to see the opinions. I’ll look for the ruling later.

Pass me a sabot, s’il vous plait.

Bachmann does have a law degree, but given the knowledge she’s displayed on the subject, the 10th grader stacks up pretty well.

How in the world does Bachmann have a law degree? Folks, we really do need to have some standards.

Mail order?

Glorious.

As far as I can tell, the military took over the system before 9-11, TeddyWan.

*passes sabot to Teddy*

Yeah, that too.

Obama has a law degree. So does Yoo. So does Gonzo.

Boxturtle (not sayin’ nuthin’, just sayin’)

*lobs sabot into W’s souffle’*

Former president George W. Bush said he was eating souffle at a restaurant with his wife and friends when President Obama called….

They have “friends”?

Souffle is the perfect dish for W. Both are full of hot air and his arguments collapse at the first slight draft of fact.

Excellent!

Here’s a link I found:

“We believe … a right to resist an unlawful police entry into a home is against public policy and is incompatible with modern Fourth Amendment jurisprudence,” David said. “We also find that allowing resistance unnecessarily escalates the level of violence and therefore the risk of injuries to all parties involved without preventing the arrest.”

David said a person arrested following an unlawful entry by police still can be released on bail and has plenty of opportunities to protest the illegal entry through the court system.

(my bold)
This will definitely be heard by SCOTUS but it’s just the kind of thing the fascist Roberts court would uphold. I’ll be both Obama picks will uphold this too. They both also lend undo tolerance to police officers pigs.

But have they been challenged to a fact test on the constitution by a 10th grader like Bachmann has?

I think their friends are called the “have-mores.”

The bar in Minnesota makes it hard to find her membership but Martindale.Com has the goods. You said mail order JD? Close enough. She has a JD from Oral Roberts University (1986).

OT– You might get a kick out of this (more at Elliot’s post, “My Water’s On Fire Tonight – The Fracking Song“)

OT but fun a little coke for the Koch Brothers…

“I was eating souffle at Rise Restaurant with Laura and two buddies,” Bush said Wednesday at a conference of hedge fund managers in Las Vegas.

Urban Dictionary: 4. Souffle: A steaming pile of light-beige colored shit with the consistency of diarrhea, usually ejected from the bowels some time after eating a plate-full of biscuits.

“What does eating souffle make you?”

Puffed up and lightly baked, provided it is consumed at 9/11 . . . er, 4:20?

Freedom Fluff!

Joe Hill’s “wooden shoe?”

I can laugh about it but it is such a sorry state of things. Letting the unqualified, corrupt and incompetent run things means things like, say, nuclear meltdowns at Fukushima which ruins things for longer than any particular human civilization has been known to exist.

Could have been a chocolate souffle. That’s delicious.

Gawd, did I just defend Bush?

Heh. Re Oral Roberts, do I know my stuff or what.

I’ve not been on internet much since weather turned more seasonal. Got a big backlog of outdoor work, plus NO stamina after my winter indoors with knee injury. So I’m either outdoors working away at chores & regaining stamina, or sleeping. Thanks for link to Elliott’s post. I hadn’t seen it. Fracking problems would not influence my water directly, as gas is farther west, but the areas where it is are very poor, and jobs and payment for mining rights is real attractive. Hinchey, local member of congress, has won by large margins in past, won by much smaller margin last time as gas corps threw big sums against him.

They’re Stalinists. Put them where they really belong. But in the meantime …

Good one. Thanks for the link.

David Dayen has a fresh cross-post up: Study: Canceling Oil Subsidies Would Have No Impact on Gas Prices

I’m off again.

Be well.

I agree they are Stalinist and their money comes from their family working for Stalin himself… Kinda like the Bush’s and their ties to Hitler… All the fucking same mold they come from… complete asshole sucking PIGS everyone of them! Who will do anything (including mass murder) for profit!!

I learned about this idiot idea decades ago and stated my negative assessment of it then. The Mohawk Nation located in NY state told the would be frackers to frack off but, yes, the snake oil salesmen are running around a bunch of places like it’s 1825 again yelling “jobs!” There are folks so desperate in Pennsylvania, for example, that they might do it.

Yes the corporation-as-proxy-for-”royalty” is how the beast got started in the first place hundreds of years ago.

There has always been evil in the hearts of some Men & Women… Shows that we are not completely Civilized… We have much to learn as a race..

Well, his choice in food seems to be excellent. And besides, didn’t Momma say that we have to find the good in everyone?

Of course, IOKIYAR.

A souffle is loaded with eggs, cholesterol, calories, etc., all the stuff that’s bad for you. Too many of those, and . . .

Why isn’t everyone here cheering?

Just a small cafe on the edge of Highland Park…not far from the rubble of his new Lie’bry and very near the posh and private cul de sac where the pair resides…Where is Molly Ivins? As she said: I TRIED to tell y’all. Rollin’ rollin’ rollin’ in her grave.

I thought that “real men” didn’t eat quiche… or souffle. What are all those manly men, who thought W would so great to drink a beer with that it was the main reason why they voted for W, gonna think now?

Oh yeah right: thinking is for pussy LIEbruls. My mistake.

And like Bush, the souffle so readily loses air and falls short.

He could have just said dining out with Laura and friends. Does mentioning what he was eating just a way to let us know it wasn’t a cheeseburger and fries at a McDonald’s? LOL

I did a combat tour in Vietnam. I’d love to have one of these ass wipe repigs try and call me a pussy.
