Bush Legacy
~~~
Since he has no character it's kinda hard for him to recognize it in others. He's been wrong a WHOLE bunch of times.
Where has his "War Czar" gone?
Bush on his Iraq War:"I Will Not Withdraw Even If Laura And Barney Are The Only Ones Supporting Me."
His legacy? THE WORST pResident IN AMERICAN HISTORY.

Weekend Bits and Pieces
How ANYONE can consider voting for McSame is a mystery to me.
What were they thinking?
Bottle openers made of kangaroo scrotums.
Sold as souvenirs in Sydney.
In the meantime, Panda went to the San Diego Zoo and got a bit peckish.
Panda thought the sign said "Bamboo Shoot" but it said "Bimbo Shoot". Panda, although terribly disappointed, tried to be helpful.
Hat Tip again, to aed. :)
Super duper panda, ass over tits.

Jenna Down, Not-Jenna To Go
The BFEE has merged with another right wing family in the marriage of Henry Hager to Jenna, second born artificially inseminated fraternal twin. Jenna's makeover is complete.
4077 Funerals and a Wedding-H/T aed.
Jenna takes after her daddy...the so-called ranch is protected by local law enforcement, nobody can get in or out without permission...restricted air space.
Panda sneaked in with the Russian dancing bears and Libby.
As an ex-aide to Karl Rove, Henry has been thoroughly vetted for his GOP loyalty. He made the cut and is headed into a very lucrative field. Energy. Ahhh, he fits right in to the BFEE way of bidness.
Uncle Karl is a matchmaker.
Uncle Dick is a moneymaker.
They can name their kids Turd and Blossom.
No unauthorized pics allowed.
The Garter Ceremony.
Restricted Airspace, Dick's on alert.

Jenna, "I'm not that glamorous"
Sneak peak of the wedding garb?
Jenna's just a simple gal, no big wedding for her. At the parental ranch with 200 guests, nothing fancy.
Jenna Bush: White House wedding not for me
President’s daughter explains why she chose small, family affair on ranch...a private ceremony with a guest list of just 200. "I guess it maybe says we’re crazy," Jenna said with a laugh as she explained the decision. "I wanted to be at home, and I wanted it to feel natural and I wanted it to be a private thing. It’s the one day of my life — it happens once — that I want to have a private time with Henry and my family. Plus, I’m not that glamorous. I’m more an outdoor type."
The sunset ceremony, she told Curry, "will be lovely and private and simple, and, we hope, the wildflowers will be blooming."
Her gown, which she has described to Vogue magazine as simple and casual, is an Oscar de la Renta creation of embroidered organza with matte beading and a small train. Barbara Bush will be her sister’s maid of honor. Jenna’s 14 attendants will wear short chiffon dresses by Lela Rose, a Texas designer, in green, blue, yellow and lavender.

Jenna Bush reveals wedding details in Vogue
Hager, the son of Virginia Republican Party Chairman John H. Hager and a former aide to Karl Rove, asked Jenna Bush to marry him in August...Laura Bush opted not to use a wedding planner.
-- Sister Barbara Bush joked with Reed that she has been preparing for her toast since birth. And what will her she be wearing? Rose told the American-Statesman that for the twin (also pictured in the May Vogue, but as part of a photo shoot from the American Museum of Natural History Winter Dance - she's wearing a seafoam green Carolina Herrera pants ensemble), Rose designed “a special moonstone blue silk shimmer soft long gown with a fluttered open back. The gown is accented with a silver sash to complement those used for the House Party's dresses.”
As for after the wedding, Jenna Bush told Reed she plans to go back to teaching.
Although she's not specific on where she'll do this, the Baltimore Sun reports that Hager, who is scheduled to receive his MBA from the University of Virginia later in May, has purchased a $440,000 rowhouse in South Baltimore and has accepted a position with Constellation Energy Group.

Our Spineless Democratic "Leadership"
They're on the take themselves and/or spineless.
If we want our country back we must hold the crooked GOP thugs accountable for their war crimes and their theft of our treasury. "What will we tell the children?" That lying, stealing and killing are American characteristics?
As a Democrat I'm ashamed of my party's behavior, sick of their lying, disgusted by their cowardice and I'm very very angry.
Conyers is an exception, but he never gets too far.
He's getting our hopes up again...how many times can Congress let us down?
A House Judiciary subcommittee voted to force one of Dick's aides, David Addington, to testify about torture policy. Conyers can subpoena him but the WH can claim executive privilege for Dick's fourth branch of government. Harriet Miers was subpoenaed but she never showed up. As Dick sez, "SO?"
The lines are drawn already even though he's supposed to testify in June. I won't be holding my breath:

Conyers said he remained hopeful that Addington, who has so far refused to appear before the committee, would change his mind. If not, said Conyers, he would employ "more prodding through the legislative, coercive process — non-violent, of course."
A spokeswoman for Cheney's office said that Addington stands by his refusal.
The lines are drawn already even though he's supposed to testify in June. I won't be holding my breath:
David Addington was served with the subpoena shortly after the House Judiciary Committee approved it Tuesday morning, White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said.
Cheney's office told the committee last week Addington would appear before a Judiciary subcommittee if subpoenaed, but only if the panel limited its questions.

Fret Killer- I like it, I like it!
This guy, whoever he is, does great covers...nice camera angle.
I ran across him out of the blue and kept on listening.
e.g. Kinks Sunny Afternoon
e.g. Lovin' Spoonful Daydream
e.g. Dylan Don't Think Twice; It's Alright
A whole gaggle of tunes by Fret Killer (aka Fretkillr @ youtube) here. Girl From Ipanema is a kick.
And because I like it a lot... She said hang the rich...
Robbie Robertson...Somewhere Down the Crazy River
"She said, there's one thing you gotta learn...is not to be afraid of it, I said, no I like it, I like it, it's good. She said, you like it now, but you'll learn to love it later...
Groupie wannabe Panda

I'm thinking, Panda needs a road trip.

No McSame!
No more damned FREE RIDE in the media!!!
McCain kisses up to religious right nutjobs like Hagee.
Rev. Hagee believes "God" was punishing New Orleans by sending Katrina.
Hagee also believes in the rapture.
McSame will do anything, yes, ANYTHING, to try to get elected.
He's a dangerous man with vengeance on his mind.

Mayday May Day
It's International Workers' Day...but not in the USA where corporations and crooked politicians run the show.
In many countries, May Day is synonymous with International Workers' Day, or Labour Day, which celebrates the social and economic achievements of the labor movement. As a day of celebration the holiday has ancient origins, and it can relate to many customs that have survived into modern times
Major combat operations in Iraq have ended.
