A sample, via Crooks and Liars:
The Bush Administration did not try to get Osama Bin Laden before 9/11.
The Bush Administration ignored all the evidence gathered by its predecessors.
The Bush Administration did not understand the Daily Briefing entitled "Bin Laden Determined To Strike in U.S."
The Bush Administration... did... not... try.
Moreover, for the last five years one month and two weeks, the current administration, and in particular the President, has been given the greatest "pass" for incompetence and malfeasance, in American history!
President Roosevelt was rightly blamed for ignoring the warning signs --— some of them, 17 years old -- before Pearl Harbor.
President Hoover was correctly blamed for, if not the Great Depression itself, then the disastrous economic steps he took in the immediate aftermath of the Stock Market Crash.
Even President Lincoln assumed some measure of responsibility for the Civil War, though talk of Southern secession had begun as early as 1832.
But not this President.
To hear him bleat and whine and bully at nearly every opportunity, one would think someone else had been President on September 11th, 2001 --— or the nearly eight months that preceded it.
That hardly reflects the honesty nor manliness we expect of the Executive.
It's all about responsibility. Clinton accepts, like an adult, Bush evades, like a comma.
I can't recommend the Keith clip enough, the most manly man in television journalism today. He takes it to the Coward-in-Chief, Orwell references, the works. Hard to believe he could have topped his 9/11 anniversary brilliance, but he's got more here.
The comparison of Bush to Clinton could tip the scales towards the Dems. Hell, I'm worried they'll try to shut Clinton up -- a plane crash, maybe? Let's pray I'm wrong.
On the GOP network and Chris Wallace himself:
As with all the other nefariousness and slime of this, our worst presidency since James Buchanan, he is having it done for him, by proxy.
James Buchanan, the President who allowed succession on his watch, hence giving us the American Civil War (1861-1865). What treats will our own worst President leave behind?
And now his Republican Congress is on the verge of giving this bloodthirsty coward the power to choose who and when to torture.
What the hell is anyone thinking?

Keith rocks it so hard in this clip it gives me chills. When do we ever get to see such honesty and cojones from the media? He is now as a god to me.
"I did not have sexual relations with that woman." Clinton
That's not taking responsibility. Whether is was right to go after Clinton or not for the ML scandal. He lied to us all and as he was doing it we all knew it was bs.
But I agree that Bush is the biggest weasle in history. And every time he comes on the radio, I turn it off. His words mean NOTHING.
Keith just may up in the morgue by a mysterious accident for that.
It was a little too right on.
Keith and Bill both rockin' the entire Casbah, from Maine to CA.
I'm actually in some agreement with Swain on the Monica business, but I do think it's all been dwarfed by now by the nightmare that is the current governmental leadership.
I'd trade 100 lies about blowjobs for one lie that gets 2700 U.S. soldiers and over 100,000 innocent foreign citizens killed.
Can someone just blow Bush so we can impeach him already??
