Scott McClellan On The Daily Show

Scotty McLiarPants had the balls to appear with Jon Stewart on The Daily Show recently. With all of Scott's lying to the press and the American people over the years, you would think he could hold his own for a few short minutes on Comedy Central to talk about the war and the State of The Union. Well, think again! McClellan gets nailed from a previous White House Press Corp. exchange showed he said no one in the White House was involved with PlameGate. Of course we know differently now.

You just have to watch this!

Can't Keep Her Hands Off Of Bush

Republican Freshman Michelle Bachmann (R-MN) is enthralled by our great leader dictator to such degree that she didn't let go of him for more than thirty seconds following the State of The Union address. During the 'autograph' session she fought to keep her hands on her man, receiving hugs and kisses from the decider-in-chief.

From RawStory:

"While the President was signing autographs for members of Congress after the speech, the sixth-district Republican put her hand on Bush's shoulder," KSTP News reports. "However, it wasn't just a tap. After he signed an autograph for her, Bachmann grabbed the president and did not let go for almost 30 seconds."

The station reports that Bachmann held on for a "better grip" as Bush leaned over to give another congresswoman a kiss, until she got "more attention, a kiss and an embrace from the president."

The local Minnesota affiliate caught the scene on the House floor and is now being generously shown on YouTube. It seems the President still has some fawning admirers left. Too bad this one is in the minority and can't do much for him in the House of Representatives.

One More Time

From the Democratic response last night:

"As I look at Iraq, I recall the words of former general and soon-to-be President Dwight Eisenhower during the dark days of the Korean War, which had fallen into a bloody stalemate. "When comes the end?" asked the General who had commanded our forces in Europe during World War Two. And as soon as he became President, he brought the Korean War to an end.

These Presidents took the right kind of action, for the benefit of the American people and for the health of our relations around the world. Tonight we are calling on this President to take similar action, in both areas. If he does, we will join him. If he does not, we will be showing him the way."

-- Jim Webb

The Misstatement Of The Union

Well last night was truly spectacular to say the least, but it certainly wasn't because of anything Bush plans on delivering. Personally the best line of the night was in Webb's response, where he said that we will show the President the way if he doesn't comply with the will of the American people. The bar I was at last night was cheering him on loudly at that point. So what if it was in the middle of New York City, where the Democratic Party outnumbers their rivals five to one? The rest of the nation will just have to catch up.

Back to the President's speech. If you didn't see it, you should check out this top ten list by Perrspectives. Dubya talked a lot about issues everyone cares about, like aid to African nations. Though he also got a few swipes in at the left. Two of them stood out for me, first he addressed the 'Democrat majority.' Seriously STFU with that right-wing bullshit. It may be funny for some to emphasize the 'rat' at the end but this isn't pre-school people. The Democratic party crushed the Republican...party in November and we will get the respect we deserve. The second example was where he called on the Congress to support the troops in Iraq.......And the ones he is sending on the way, which has been opposed by the American people, the Democratic party and now eight Republicans with more to come. Again, STFU with that.

Bush also made up a lot of things about energy independence, yet as Webb retorted, the President has said this many times and there has been no action. That is because he is a man of no action, unless it helps his greedy f*ckin friends.

Daily Show's SOTU Preview

Ah, if only TDS was filmed after the speech. Nevertheless Jon delivered another brilliant performance, ripping the President before it even began. Hell, how could you not with all of his previous material.

Bush Gives The State Of The Union

If Bush would have wrote it himself instead of being the 'editor-in-chief,' this would have been it.

I'll let Jon take it from here, he's a million times more funny than I could ever hope to be:

Mr. 28% To Give His SOTU

The state of the union address is scheduled for tonight and unfortunately George Bush is still making the speech in front of Congress. Thankfully this is the next to last for his awful Presidency. Mr. Bush is supposed to bring out a drawer full of diamonds that focus on a national agenda without touching too much on the mess that is Iraq.

Nevertheless he will still try to justify the escalation of 21,500 troops in the war-torn country, primarily in the capital of Baghdad. His first address to the nation two weeks ago fell on deaf ears for the most part and even persuaded more people to distrust his actions. With a mere 28 percent approval, his poll numbers have dropped further than Nixon at his lowest.

The speech tonight will most likely be more empty rhetoric from a President who has a track record of delivering bullshit with devastating results. This man has done nothing but ruin our country and will say...or not say what his next actions are to bring us further down in the eyes of the world and continue to tear apart our great country.
