hayden is miered, borked

general michael hayden has just been nominated by our lame duck, severely retarded “prez-o-dent” george dubya bush to be cia director. whoopie! that is after top republicans in the house and senate said there is no way in hell they would ever confirm general hayden to that job... which is a pretty fuckin’ strong signal if you ask me. but the bush baby is brain dead and hard of hearing, so he didn’t seem to hear the message from congress, which was a resounding “don’t nominate that dude, if ya know what’s good for ye”. and of course all the dem-o-krattz were sayin’ the same thing. so, bush is proving once again, he doesn’t give a damn about anyone’s opinions except his own, and he is willing to do whatever it takes to prove he is a complete dipshit, even if it means doing things soooooooo stupid, no man has ever done them before. what does it say that bush cannot even co-ordinate his message with the members of his own party in congress, after having them do whatever he says and jumping off cliffs together as friends for 6 years? i mean, if your friend asked you to jump off a cliff with him/her, would you do it? for congressional republicans, the answer has always been a resounding “hells yeah!” until recently. and karl rove has given up on independent voters, instead focusing on the few party-line loyal republican brainwashing victims left, thinking that he can maximize their turnout if he gets bush to pander to the right wing as much as possible. so, bush tried pushing his amnesty program for illegal aliens... whoops! not the right way to pander to right-wingers who hate mexicans! you see, bush is the type of guy who always does what he thinks is right, even when everyone with half a brain keeps telling him he is dead wrong. he is also the type of guy who is dead wrong about pretty much everything, but too stubborn to admit it or change his views on anything. and what about these so-called “limited government” types in the conservative movement? what has he done for them? oh nothing... just a new medicare prescription drug benefit that is a cover for gigantic corporate welfare to profitable companies, and presiding over huge increases in the budget deficit and national debt, while using the patriot act and other new laws to limit our freedoms while illegally spying on us. yeah... bush is a big supporter of “limited government”... suuuuuuure. the only time he ever supported limited government was when hurricane katrina hit, and he wanted to limit the power of the government to do anything to respond. that’s why the government’s new plan to fight avian flu is: “we do nothing for you! you have to do it yourself! don’t say we didn’t warn you!” at least bush and the republicans agree about taxation: they think the government should always take in much less taxes than the amount of money it spends, so whenever spending goes up, it is time for another huge tax cut. ran out of money? whoops, we can’t count! let’s just print more money... yeah that’ll fix it. it’s too bad our president only has a pre-kindergarten-level understanding of mathematics or logic. 32% approval rating? y’all forgot the decimal point. shouldn’t it be 3.2% approval rating instead? that’d be a helluva lot more appropriate. so, porter goss, the last cia head, turned out to be a partisan hack who mismanaged the agency and left it demoralized, while all its best agents quit their jobs at the cia and went to work elsewhere. meanwhile, he was involved in a big corruption scandal involving randy “duke” cunningham, defense contractors, and prostitutes... and not legal ones, by the way. they weren’t in nevada. and he didn’t get along with his boss, john negroponte. who is negroponte? oh, nobody, he just helped carry out genocide in nicaragua in the 80’s... he’s nobody... it’s not like president bush used him as a u.n. ambassador and ambassador to iraq despite the blood on his hands and his lack of a conscience. but he is the director of national intelligence, which is kind of a contradiction in terms. i mean how could someone in the government possibly have any intelligence? it’s ridiculous... and negroponte’s 2nd in command, general michael hayden, is now being sent to run the cia, while still being under rumsfeld’s command since he is still in the military. and you know what that means? it would be a violation of the uniform code of military justice for general hayden to ever criticize anyone above him in the chain of command, like don rumsfeld or george w. bush. they could actually put general hayden in jail if he did that. but don’t worry. he won’t. he’s too stupid to understant arcane concepts like “right and wrong” or “true and false”, so he would never even think anything bad of his superiors in the first place. he already showed that with his speeches about the illegal wiretapping scandal. which is why nobody in congress likes him, and the senate won’t confirm him, marking yet another failure for the bush administration. but hey, at least they succeeded in getting re-elected, right?
