I haven't heard any comment. Surely he would be upset about desecration of the cross that Jesus died on.

I wonder what he would have said if Jane Fonda or Michael Moore had been driving?

Bush silence=complicity, approval.

4. No
However, I've got to stop doing this, powerlineflogthecrap states in with a straight face:

"The photo below depicts the crosses that have been in the news. Gene notes that news photos crop out the road -- some crosses and flags are within 12 inches of the road. The road is very narrow with no shoulders"

spin spin spin

See it was an accident, he didn't mean to do it. Wait for the excuses on foxnews. (luckily I don't get it in wonderful Quebec)

10. How do they lie about him, with forethought and malice, dragging a chain &
pipe?

Premeditation and planning is obvious.

12. Like that matters to the right
Truth is what they make it, narrow roads, WMD's, they create their own reality.

I've really haven't seen the like before. In a recent rant to powerline I wrote

In your post "Closing in on Karl," you state:

This isn't a top presidential aide accepting an expensive gift, or
engaging in lewd sexual conduct. It's a top aide providing truthful
information to journalists in response to lies told to embarrass the
administration and our government.

Please remind all readers what the "lie" actually was.

Rove outed a CIA official who was working on WMD's, regardless of her position this is a major issue.

Let me think, blowjob or outing CIA agents working on WMD's, you know I can't figure out which one is worse.

The reply in all it's spun glory:

The lies (it's plural) were that Cheney (not Plame) had selected Wilson for his mission, the findings in Wilson's report, and his rendition in the New York Times about what was in his report. The Butler Commission and the Senate 9/11 study both thoroughly discredited Wilson.

Rove "outing" the CIA agent is a big issue if she was an agent, if he did "out" her (that is, she was not already known to be CIA), and if he did it knowingly. Otherwise, there's no crime and no real issue, just politics.

Clinton's crime was perjury. If it's shown that Rove committed a crime (even one involving liars like the Wilson couple), I'll be all over him.

My Reply:

Hi:

Again you are not exactly being truthful. Wilson states in the article in the NYT:

“In February 2002, I was informed by officials at the Central Intelligence Agency that Vice President Dick Cheney's office had questions about a particular intelligence report. While I never saw the report, I was told that it referred to a memorandum of agreement that documented the sale of uranium yellowcake — a form of lightly processed ore — by Niger to Iraq in the late 1990's. The agency officials asked if I would travel to Niger to check out the story so they could provide a response to the vice president's office.”

http://www.nytimes.com/2003/07/06/opinion/06WILS.html?ex=1121400000&en=81e0aa9d9cb1d0dc&ei=5070

Where does it state that Cheney sent him? Yes, he says Cheney had some questions about the uranium (well so would I) but he does not state that that Cheney either requested he be sent, or that Cheney even requested the trip.

Of course at this point all responses ceased, reality came crashing down.

Oh well

6. Given His History One Suspects It Would Have Amused Him
Remember, this sick little frat boy would have done it himself if he could have got away with it. Bush is more than simply ignorant, he is shockingly immature. Mowing down the crosses, leaving the flags in the dusty tire tracks, the high perch of a pick-up truck, these are the sort of things that Bush would find absolutly gleeful. Punk bastard.

9. McLennan County Commissioner Ray Meadows said Northern war hero
McLennan County Sheriff Larry Lynch said I know his family. This is sad for his family.
