Big Al and Dufus Dick

As the days and months flow by, the news from the US Justice Department is still the same old shit. However, for the first time in US history, the general public can get a look into how corruption, arrogance and incompentence fills the so-called oval office. Decider George and his buddy AG Alberto “Don’t Recall” Gonzales: A creation of suck-buddy, Mafia-style silence in the wake of some obvious lying.
Don’t Recall has apparently slipped the noose again.
As of noon today, Decider George has been quiet about Don’t Recall’s lying barrage last week up on the Hill. Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA), the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, requested from the Bush administration some evidence of Don’t Recall’s truthfulness. But, of course, nothing from the White House. Just about every politican in D.C. has slammed the AG. Don’t Recall is indeed a piece of work.
According to stories in the Wasington Post, Gonzales’s tie to Decider George stretches back to at least 1996, when he intervened to prevent then-Gov. Bush from serving jury duty in Texas, which allowed the decider to keep his own drunken driving conviction a secret years longer. Don’t Recall has been Decider George’s gofer for a long time and will stand with his man until the end.
There’s nothing that good-ole buddies won’t do even with Don’t Recall.
Even Vice President Dufus Dick Cheney has open his yap. When asked in an interview with CBS radio whether Don’t Recall should keep his job, Dufus Dick replied: “I do. I’m a big fan of Al’s. I think Al has done a good job under difficult circumstances. The debate between he and the Senate is something they’re going to have to resolve. But I think he has testified truthfully.”
Al? ‘Testified truthfully?’ Dufus Dick still has a the gall despite every freakin’ bit of evidence to the contrary and even Don’t Recall’s own words.
Dont’ Recall ain’t that smart, neither. James Moore, co-author of Bush’s Brain, a book on Karl Rove, told Countdown MSNBC host Keith Olbermann on Monday, education does not necessarily make one a brain. “I think — it is amazing to me that people actually think that this man is smart,” Moore said. “If the administration of George W. Bush has proved anything, it is that you can go to a top flight East Coast school and get an advanced degree and not be a very bright person.”
Duh!
A Scrambled Egg of History

Sweeping eyes and ears across the vast picture of the planet immediately conjures up Marven Gaye’s captivating, double-question lyrics easily and melodically-heard in the brain: “What’s Goin’ On? … What’s Goin’ On?”
Quick knowledge comes faster and faster. Technology has indeed made the world seem smaller and closer, but really all it has produced is a real-time/full-time view of real-bad, strange shit exploding in every corner of the globe. And despite from all apparent intent, the situation is worsening.
However, Decider George doesn’t let the facts stand in the way. In his official notification of invasion sent to Congress on March 18, 2003, Bush declared he was attacking Iraq “to take the necessary actions against international terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001.”
Against all the evidence available nowadays from so many different and varied sources, the president again retardedly tries to connect the dots. There is no connection between Al-Qaeda and Iraq prior to the invasion. In his press conference Tuesday, Decider George blustered: “Some say that Iraq is not a part of the broader war on terror. They claim that the organization called Al-Qaeda in Iraq is an Iraqi phenomenon, that it’s independent of Osama bin Laden and it’s not interested in attacking America. That would be news to Osama bin Laden.”
One thing for certain about Decider George and his bunch: They never, ever fess-up to a possible mistake. Even his intelligence people people confirmed on Wednesday that the vast majority of Al-Qaeda fighters in Iraq are outcast locals, never-do-wells and murderous trash from Iraqi communities — hardly no foreigners fighters at all. Where the livin’ shit are Osama and his boys?
In Decider George’s brain! Only!
And does anyone really consider Attorney General Alberto “Don’t Recall” Gonzales with any kind of confidence? The guy’s a lying sack of Texas shit (No offence to those Texans with brains and a heart — you know who you are). After his appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday, “Don’t Recall” has again revealed that either he’s an idiot or else very-well portraying a Mafia lawyer. Gonzales just doesn’t give a shit.
Four Senate Democrats this morning requested the Justice Department’s Solicitor General to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate whether or not “Don’t Recall” committed perjury in Congressional testimony on Decider George’s domestic spying program. That’s the same bullshit Gonzales and Andy-Man Card, Decider George’s ex-chief of staff, tried to shove down the sick throat of AG John Ashroft three years ago. Ashroft was in the hospital at the time.
These same Democrats are also after Karl Rove, Decider George’s main flame.
In response, White House flack Tony Fratto blubbered: “Every day this Congress gets a little more out of control.” That’s like the kettle calling the pot black: Complete arrogance and a total disregard for any type of truth.
The shoe will be on the other hand soon. Decider George’s performance level was at 92 percent a month after Sept. 11, 2001. Now it’s down in the low 20s — people are pretty-well fed up with his shit.
The US has now a government of shame. Just this week, FEMA was found guilty of lying about cancerous trailers. The Veterans’ affairs department head concluded treatment of wounded soldiers needs “broad changes.” Duh!
And as the world spins across space and time, the point of no return slips quickly away.
Odom Told ‘Em

In the continuous outpouring of flak and crap on, about, for and against the insane, horrific Iraq debacle there has been a voice, seemingly crying in the wilderness, a voice that should have been heard much, much louder. And the voice has been screaming for awhile.
In order to supplement the GI Bill for college, a writer here at Compatible Creatures worked at Sears on the loading dock of its store in Gainesville, Fla., home of the University of Florida. One of his co-workers was a 19-year-old black guy, whose real first name was Bill, but he was more-than-affectionately known by the entire loading-dock and Receiving departments as “Wild Bill.” However, this moniker was one of those antithesis things, a name in direct contrast to reality:”Speedy”” is the slowest guy on a work crew. ‘Wild Bill’ was a sweet and sensitive kid, who talked up a much bigger “wild” side of his personality than was actually there. Everybody loved him and enjoyed his presence.
In the bio-of-the writer box at the bottom of a commentary at niemanwatchdog.org is the following:
Lieutenant General William E. Odom, U.S. Army (Ret.), is a Senior Fellow with Hudson Institute and a professor at Yale University. He was Director of the National Security Agency from 1985 to 1988. From 1981 to 1985, he served as Assistant Chief of Staff for Intelligence, the Army’s senior intelligence officer. From 1977 to 1981, he was Military Assistant to the President’s Assistant for National Security, Zbigniew Brzezinski.
Is this a been there, done that kind of guy, or what?

Now nearly four days later, all of what we wanted to write last Saturday seems to have materialized just this morning with Decider George’s press conference. This guy has got to be the biggest turd to come down the pike in a long, long time.
Walks out of the conference on a question. And the question? “Is Bin Laden alive?”
Life in Decider George’s White House has to be likened to a extremely high-level and dangerous version of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, albeit with way, way-more consequences. Nurse Rachet has a kindred soul in Decider George, and even more so with Doofus Dick Cheney.
Despite all the reports, intelligence papers and military briefings to the contrary, Decider George still uttered words linking Iraq and Al-Qaeda: “The same folks that are bombing innocent people in Iraq are the ones who attacked us on Sept. 11.”
Either he’s thimble-brained or just doesn’t give a shit – really hard to say. Decider George and his entire crowd have got to be the most arrogant, incompetent and ’shit-for-brains’ outfit ever to sit in the White House.
Also this morning (Thursday, 7/12/07), the Washington Post in a Bob Woodward by-lined story revealed CIA Director Michael Hayden told the infamous Iraq Study Group late last year the situation is Iraq was “irreversible.” Hayden, appointed by Decider George to replace the duck-necked George Tenet, reportedly told the panel he could not “point to any milestone or checkpoint where we can turn this thing around.”
So what does Decider George decide to do? Send more troops to try and turn this thing around.
Also today, a series of interviews in The Nation with Iraqi war veterans and the impact of waging a wrong and vicious war. Excerpts appeared at news.independent.co/uk: ‘”It’s not individual atrocity,” Specialist Garett Reppenhagen, a sniper from the 263rd Armour Battalion, said. “It’s the fact that the entire war is an atrocity.”
Sgt Kelly Dougherty of the Colorado National Guard described a hit-and-run in which a military convoy ran over a 10-year-old boy and his three donkeys, killing them all. “Judging by the skid marks, they hardly even slowed down. But, I mean… your order is that you never stop,” the Web site reported.
A wanton slaughter. And a Harris Interactive poll, published in the UK’s Financial Times today, shows the majority of the earth believes the US is the biggest threat to global security right now, more than Iran and North Korea combined.
And then today, a another new report about the real war on terror Decider George has been waging, lo, all these years. The National Intelligence Estimate states Osama and his boys are as strong right now just as they were in September 2001.
What the living shit is going on?
- Tuesday, July 17, 2007
Here it is days later, the war has taken a strange turn. Decider George’s people are trying to deflect the National Intelligence Estimate about Al-Qaeda as I write, creating in an Owellian fashion, a real-time piece of prose, so to speak. In this instance, CNN is carrying live babble from Fran Townsend, a Homeland Security hack, who claims Osama and his boys are leaving Iraq and heading for the US: An extension of of the highly-intelligent-intestinal “gut feeling.”
As the slaughter continues, Harry Reid wants to hold an all-nighter and get Decider George some maid service for the bed of shit he’s created for all of us. Why can’t Congress step in and run an interim government? Formed in similiar fashion to the government’s chain of command: Vice President to Speaker of the House, and so forth, right down the line. In Decider George’s case, it would be the entire adminstration that is incapacitated, allowing Nancy Pelosi to assume the presidency. Tell me why that wouldn’t work? Polls show a majority of US peoples have lost all confidence in Decider George and his bunch, which means they are unfit to govern.
Do something!
Which brings us back around to “Wild Bill” on the loading dock in Gainesville, F-L-A and the tie in to retired General William Odom. Of course, the connection of William to Bill and thus “Wild Bill.” Not only that, but Odom is a balding, gentle-appearing guy we’ve seen on NBC and PBS, read in well-researched arguments-commentaries on niemanwatchdog.org: Quite the opposite in what he says and writes. A gentle William is “Wild Bill” in his presence.
And “Wild Bill” Odom has been writing and saying it for awhile.
A couple of bits from sourcewatch.com:On NBC’s Today show Thursday, April 29, 2004, Odom said, “We have already failed … Staying in longer makes us fail worse … I think we’ve passed the chances not to fail. And now we are in the situation where we have to limit the damage.”
He has published articles in Foreign Affairs, World Politics, Foreign Policy, Orbis, Problems of Communism, The National Interest, The Washington Quarterly, Military Review and many other publications. He also is a periodic contributor the op-ed pages of The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and others.
What caught my particular and peculiar eye earlier this month was Odom’s latest commentary on niemanwatchdog.org., posted July 5, 2007, and titled “Supporting The Troops Means Withdrawing Them.”
He lays it all out right there.
All we’re saying is read “Wild Bill” Odom. Decider George will not, of course, even if he could read, but there’s another 200 million others.
Feelin’ da ole ‘Scooter’ Itch on da Constitution Cha-Cha-Cha

Day after July fourth: Malcontent and hot-under-the collar utterances against a putrid situation.
On TV’s History Channel yesterday was a well-produced, though kind of cheesy look at events leading up to the US becoming a viable nation. The recognized starting point of that process was July 4th, 1776, and the story continued until George Washington was inaugurated as president (Usual eleventh-grade history-class stuff: Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation and so forth, eventually leading to a big convention and the Constitution. And from that Constitution came the selection of George W. to be the newly-minted country’s first president).
Which brings us here at Compatible Creatures around in an odd-little 200-plus-year circle, maybe a hangman’s noose–if you will, to the current George W. A kind of Back to the Future with subtitles.
Decider George, as we are so fond of calling him. An ultimate irony: a George W. screwing “a George W.”
Arguably or not, one of human history’s most influential and sustainable documents is the US Constitution. Decider George and his vice president/adviser/consultant/co-president Doofus Dick Cheney and all their cronies, operatives, aides and gofer guys, have created a regime so Constitutionally putrid, the smell-reality of it is nearly suffocating. And the sonofabitches don’t give a shit!
Decider George’s antics seem to have worsened. In that sentence deal with I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, however, the current and last George W., has finally sucked all the juice he can out of his job.
And what about freakin’ “Scooter”? (One feels the vital-need to put parenthesis around ‘Scooter’) He even damn-well looks like a scooter. He’s on continuous TV news loops scurrying around, opening doors for other people, his lawyers and wife and such, as they enter and exit federal courthouses, law offices, though, no jail houses. In much-better times he’s shown briskly walking down a hallway in the White House. “Scooter” is the perfect nickname for a ‘Yes Man,’ or a gopher.
“Hey Scooter, scoot on over to the special federal grand jury and lie, cover for Decider George and Doofus Dick. Yeah, well, while you lying, cover for Uncle Karl, too. And, no matter what happens, Decider George will get you out of it.”
One very well-written and delivered tirade against Decider George’s move to make sure of “Scooter’s” continued silence was Keith Olbermann’s Special Comment segment of his show, Countdown on MSNBC. After tearing Decider George a new asshole, listing the horrible-lying shit he’s uttered and okayed in his years as the big cheese’s decider, Olbermann drags out some comparative history: Archibald Cox’s firing as a pivotal point for Dick Nixon’s Watergate affair, so then the “Scooter” event is Decider George’s last gasp at reality, the crucial swing.
Olbermann, however, calls on Decider George to rise to the occasion, put the nation above himself and perform as Richard Nixon finally did Aug. 9, 1974. And resign.
Don’t hold your breath, Mr. Olbermann. Decider George is not one to do such a thing. He doesn’t even have the guts/or balls to fall on his sword.
Just last week, not to drift too far off course, results of a poisonous plant study was released, which revealed global warning has made them much stronger. Poison oak can create an itch of a bitch nowadays.
And with flagrant disregard for the natural order of things, we can easily apply the salve of knowledge about increased itch from today’s poison oak to Decider George’s “Scooter” embrace. Decider George has a seemingly ever-growing power to produce such an irritating, teeth-clinching itch, an itch that when scratched or even bothered, becomes even more frenzied with no remedy except time. The asshole just has the freakin’ talent.
Decider George, however, has the time. He’s got about 18 months. He’s on a scooter itch roll: And the Constitution better get out of the way.
And today, just scant hours after Decider George gave him a reprieve from an “excessive” jail term, “Scooter” paid his “harsh” $250,000 fine. The freakin’ asshole didn’t have to scramble around to do it, either.
Drives one to scratch.
