Give it up for Bush! (via azspot, via climateprogress.org)
“Your one, tone-deaf, arrogant, pathetic, embarrassing gesture, and you didn’t even think of it yourself? The great Bushian sacrifice — an Army private loses a leg, a Marine loses half his skull, 4,000 of their brothers and sisters lose their lives — and you lose golf, and they have to pull you off the golf course to get you to just do that? If it’s even true. Apart from your medical files, which dutifully record your torn calf muscle and the knee pain which forced you to give up running at the same time — coincidence, no doubt — the bombing in Baghdad which killed Sergio Vieira de Mello of the U.N. and interrupted your round of golf was on Aug. 19, 2003. Yet CBS News has records of you playing golf as late as Oct. 13 of that year, nearly two months later. Mr. Bush, I hate to break it to you 6 1/2 years after you yoked this nation and your place in history to the wrong war, in the wrong place, against the wrong people, but the war in Iraq is not about you. It is not, Mr. Bush, about your grief when American after American comes home in a box. It is not, Mr. Bush, about what your addled brain has produced in the way of paranoid delusions of risks that do not exist, ready to be activated if some Democrat, and not your twin Mr. McCain, succeeds you. The war in Iraq, your war, Mr. Bush, is about how you accomplished the derangement of two nations, and how you helped funnel billions of taxpayer dollars to lascivious and perennially thirsty corporations like Halliburton and Blackwater, and how you sent 4,000 Americans to their deaths for nothing. It is not, Mr. Bush, about your golf game!” — Olbermann (via azspot)

“The thing is, “conservative ideas” do, in fact, suck. This is why attempts on the part of our favorite commentators to explain just what went wrong are so hilarious. No, it was not immigration that sunk you; neither is it earmarks, nor can we blame inadequate federalism. The problem is that modern conservatism is hardly a “philosophy,” no matter how badly its adherents want to pretend that it is. No, it’s a preposterous form of identity politics and utterly inadequate when it comes to issues of, you know, governing a country.” — The Trimmings of Slim Victory (via azspot)
