GOP to Bush: If I wuz you, I'd keep an eye on this Iraq thing

[lwcon]

Congressional Republicans told President Bush that the Iraq War is harming those who must never be harmed: Congressional Republicans.

Note how proud Tom Davis (R-Too Fucking Late) is about shocking and awing Bush with a bold and timely assessment — the war isn't going real well:

"It was a very remarkable, candid conversation," Davis said. "People are always saying President Bush is in a bubble. Well, this was our chance, and we took it."

I guess four years and hundreds of thousands of deaths is the Republican equivalent of the five-second rule.

When it comes to telling the truth and providing oversight that would have saved lives, trillions of dollars, our good name, and any hope of peace in the Middle East, it's just common sense to keep your powder dry as long as you can.

Tim Russert seems to agree, as he was dazzled by the boldness of this surge of clear-thinking and candor. In response, Correntewire's Lambert gives us a snarky conundrum for the ages: "How could a journalist of Russert's integrity fall for it?"

1. It's all smoke and mirrors, has Rice been forced to accept the subpeona yet?

Has Gonzales resigned or been arrested? Has voting fraud been addressed and those guilty in jail? Has this administration been impeached for its traitorous actions against the oath they took to protect this county, etc etc etc, nothing to see here, the white house could care less what anyone things and the republicans in power know this for fact.

And russet is nothing more than a shrill used for propaganda.

2. But this time, it's personal

Those other problems didn't matter, but when the GOP is endangered, that's serious business.

As we all know, if the Repubs ever lose their grip on our government, we're all doomed. As fast as you can say "President Hillary Clinton," there will be two terrorists in every garage.

Remember what The Onion wrote upon Bush's inauguration: "Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over."

Can we risk returning to that kind of nightmare!?
