Bullshit and Spin

Condosleezza, schmoozing for continued Canadian NATO support, said the world must not abandon Afghanistan. Oops, the Taliban is back in power, we need all the help we can get for our troops stuck in the forgotten Afghanistan carpet-of-bombs war. We did such a SWELL job of finding Bin Laden there. Our military is spread a bit thin in Iraq at the moment. The Bush administration's real objective, pipelines to the Caspian Sea. U.S. sanctions on Iran make the Turkmenistan/Afghanistan route more appealing to international big oil and gas despite the "war" in their way. Rice's job is to keep a security force on site for the contractors. U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice acknowledged "difficult going" fighting a resurgent Taliban in Afghanistan but insisted Tuesday that the world cannot afford to pull out now.
We broke it and created more strife, you guys in NATO fix it and protect our contractors, please.
Britain, Canada and the Netherlands have taken lead roles, pumping in around 8,000 troops and bringing NATO forces in Afghanistan to about 20,000. At least 35 British and Canadian soldiers have died in a little more than a month, and militants show no signs of giving up.

Tony Snow held a "press conference" today and was asked several times about the partisan nature of Lieboy's 9/11 speech. Bush accused of using 9/11 to score political points. Snowjob denied it was partisan, except for "three or four sentences". He claims Democrats made it partisan by attacking the speech itself. Snow, "The president decided that yesterday wasn’t a day for partisanship." (Ahahahahahaaaaaaaaa! Right.) Harry Reid said, "The American people deserved better last night" and accused Bush of "playing election-year politics." House asshole whip Boehner, (Boh-ner, yes boner, not Bayner as he claims) said of Democrats, "I wonder if they’re more interested in protecting the terrorists than protecting the American people. They certainly don’t want to take the terrorists on and defeat them." No, the GOP doesn't play nasty political lying games before elections..not at all. Bush didn't say the words but his wingman sure completed the smear job. They work in unison, the right hand always knows what the right hand is jobbing. Liars. The GOP perfected partisan politics. Their projection is showing.

Snowjob in either his gaggle or his suppression-session (same thing) discussed Syria's defense of the American embassy in Damascus. Syrians fight off attack on U.S. Embassy. So far it's been called an attack, and a foiled plot. Talk about disgusting, undiplomatic and ungracious:
"Syrian officials came to aid of the Americans," Snow said. "The U.S. government is grateful for the assistance the Syrians provided in going after the attackers, and once again, that illustrates the importance of Syria being an important ally in the war on terror. "It does not mean they are an ally. We are hoping they will become an ally and make the choice of fighting against terrorists," he said, adding that the Bush administration does not know who is responsible for the attack.

Update: The White House transcript is up.
Important note from Snow...despite contradictions by Lieboy himself, Snowjob sez that there's a connection between Al Qaeda and Saddam...sort of.
Q Well, one more, Tony, just one more. Do you believe -- does the President still believe that Saddam Hussein was connected to Zarqawi or al Qaeda before the invasion?
Snowshovel: The President has never said that there was a direct, operational relationship between the two, and this is important. Zarqawi was in Iraq.

Q There was a link --
Snowballs: Well, and there was a relationship -- there was a relationship in this sense: Zarqawi was in Iraq; al Qaeda members were in Iraq; they were operating, and in some cases, operating freely from Iraq. Zarqawi, for instance, directed the assassination of an American diplomat in Amman, Jordan. But they did they have a corner office at the Mukhabarat? No. Were they getting a line item in Saddam's budget? No. There was no direct operational relationship, but there was a relationship. They were in the country, and I think you understand that the Iraqis knew they were there. That's the relationship.

Q Saddam Hussein knew they were there; that's it for the relationship?
Snowjob: That's pretty much it.


Somebody give this Fux Gnus "personality" with the high reedy voice the HOOK!

Tony Snow looks like Kevin Bacon portraying Frankenstein. I bet he has a faint odor of baby shit and powder about him too.

How come so few instinctively feel the evil oozing from these creatures and recoil as that is thenatural thing to do? How can anyone stand them at all? It's a mystery to me.

That's an insult to both Bacon and Frankenstein. Snowjob is a real piece of sleazy shit. He jokes around, doesn't answer questions and makes Stonewall Snotty and Above-it-all Ari look informative by comparison.
I feel and see the fetid ooze. It makes me sick.

Dismally, the future's going to be about basic survival. The "Great" Depression will look like a frolic and a lark. Light at the end of the tunnel will dim considerably the longer this goes on. Lieboy's legacy? Fear and hatred worldwide.
