Memories...

Photobucket

An old post:
Res ipsa loquitur at Rising Hegemon lays it out for us: 
September 11th. Iraq. Katrina. FEMA. The DOJ. The deficit. Walter Reed. Surging rates of teenage pregnancy, soldier suicides, and income disparity. Lurita Ding Dong Doan and the GSA. Bernie Bada Bing Kerik and the DHS. Heckuva Job Brownie and FEMA. Wolfowitz. Rumsfeld. Condi Ferragamo. Megan O'Sullivan. We scream, "Incompetence!" Still think incompetence across virtually every spectrum of government is an accident? 
You're missing the overall. This is incompetence by design. Disdain as a philosophy. Contempt as a core value. You want the bridge to fail? Let me design it. You want the government to fail? Send a twenty-one-year old whose most meaningful job experience has been driving an ice cream truck to Iraq to rebuild Iraq's interior ministry. Let "The Fucking Stupidest Guy on the Face of the Earth" formulate defense policy. Put a schmuck with no disaster management experience in charge of FEMA. 
I've said before that we're going to have to fire virtually every person hired into federal government after January 20, 2001. But we need to go farther. Every time a Republican runs, voters need to be reminded that Republicans should never be permitted to run government again. Ever. They don't believe in it.
And today looking back.

Good riddance to bad rubbish. Give him his "lie-berry" and send him away.

Please. Immediately. Just hearing his voice makes my skin crawl...

His is not even a genuine Texas accent. He began faking it to get elected governor, but never got good at it. And I'm pretty sure I'm familiar with every flavor of Texan-speak there is.

Agreed, his accent is ridiculous and he's even mangled the cowboy walk... it looks like he's got his undies in a twist.
