Oopsy, OB, better wtach what you say. Look at what it did to George Allen. You actually wrote in a memo that Hillary represents “Punjab,” and has ties to outsourcing? You might have considered the possibility that it’s the insourced injuns, i.e. citizens of United States with the right to vote, who would have feelings about this. Are you really going to play the race/corporate card in the primary? Dude, you are going to be a great politician someday. You might even be president. But you can’t make mistakes like this. It’s a memo, for crying out loud, you might as well be typing things up on Time Square ticker.

Missed a few wrinkles on the Dic/Executive Branch thing. So far, we have Dick refusing to archive the VP papers, violating an executive order. Then Dick says, get rid of the National Archives. Yeah, right. Then he says hey now, I’m not part of the executive branch. Excuse me? Next you have a brave congressman saying, “fine, then you don’t get any of the money from us slotted for the executive branch.” Oops. So now Dick’s people are saying “Well, the only one who can enforce an EO is the president, so it’s up to George.”

Let’s strip away the whole constitutional debate right now and get straight some good old fashioned integrity. Dick, you said you were not part of the executive branch. Either admit you were wrong, or suffer the consequences. I’ll tell you, what this administration lacks, making them out-and-out hypocrites, is accountability. I mean, do you realize that EVERY scandal-politic in the last 6 years has been compared to Monicagate by the pundits?

Impeach Cheney. Let’s excise this boil and start the healing.

You may have heard this one already: Laura Bush, in an interview today, said they we have welcomed many Iraqi refugees into these our wonderful United States. You know, all 500 of ‘em. Maybe she had a confused conversation with Babs Bush, the First Matriarch, and thought she was talking about that stadium full of Katrina Victims.

Don’t know why I am chagrined, really. Can’t say I’m surprised. I mean, the prez himself is not so bright, so why should his wife be? I mean, just because First Ladies in the past have been so influential. I think Hillary spoiled us. Can you see Laura running for the Senate after W takes up permanent residence on the pension couch? (Then again, we never though George would be prez himself, so there you go. Be scared, New York.)

For the record, as all those websites referencing L’s gaff will point out, we’ve only allowed 56 refugees from Iraq in this year. So, we’ve got 500 out of the 2 million world wide, which for you mathaphobes is one quarter of a tenth of a percent. How many of the refugees did L’s hubby cause to become homeless in the first place? That number’s a little higher– closer to a word that rhymes with “ton mudred serpent.”

Why bring it up at all? Just so have that much more ammunition when you want to speak to the cluelessness of the White House… or maybe it’s W’s fault, maybe he knows that pillows talk, maybe he keeps L in the dark just in case, you know, they want to stick HER in the National Archives. Maybe. Do they sell Marlboros there?

So it seems the man with his hand in the puppet’s can is getting even more obvious with his chicanery. His office claims that, for the purposes of securing classified information in the National Archives, the office of the vice president is not part of the executive branch. Is this just a veiled attempt to justify the stupidity of our nation’s children, who flunk their civics tests because they can’t tell one branch of government from the other?

Caustic and hyperbolic headers aside, it may be the case that Dick did not issue the statement as it stands, or it might be the case that the fine print of “for the purposes of” holds sway, as Dick’s office is insisting that is is not an entity that comes into possession of classified information. Well, heck, why didn’t they say so before? Sheriff, let Scooter go, he wasn’t lyin’ after all.

What they’re really trying to say is “Hey, man, we’re the office of the vice-president. We’re just token politicians, you know, good for bake sales and library openings. Come on, remember Dan Quayle? You think they’d let him have any secrets?” Dick, no one’s buying it. We all know you’re the one raping America.

You’re just using W as your condom.
