Somebody please slap some sense into Haley Barbour

[Blue_Roses]

:grr: Did anybody see his interview with Miles on CNN this morning? Miles was asking him why this wasn't better prepared since it was known this hurricane was a category 5 storm and Barbour held up his stubby finger and said it was a "one" --at first:eyes: He went on to say, "I not gonna argue with you about this 'cause I think the government is doing a good job and has been here from day one." Does this man live in the twilight zone?:crazy:

1. Heley lives in Bushworld

[Blue_Roses]

6. no doubt

his head is obviously stuck up Bush's ass

[gratuitous]

14. And one of the sacred tenets of Bushworld

The gummint is big, bad and wasteful until we're at the levers of power. Then it's infallible. Like the Pope or something.

2. OMG YES, I saw that....and for ONCE I thought

Miles did a decent job - that blubbering piece of whale fat, to the end defending his masters in Washington

If I was Miles I would have asked him to defend that to his constituents - Haley blubber mouth fat assed POS

[raccoon]

3. I take it he's Republican? nt

[trof]

5. Former RNC head.

4. What an absolutely dickhead.

[Hubert Flottz]

9. He was!

Did you see him the other day acting like fucking Rambo when he was talking about dealing with the looters. These people are all just alike all mouth!

[fishwax]

12. that was especially hideous

"we'll deal with them ruthlessly!" as the spittle came out of his mouth :puke:

[Hubert Flottz]

13. Did you notice the prick behind him laughing when he was...

making his little speech about the looters? I hope some of those people get hold of those two bastards and kick their asses.

[fishwax]

15. I missed that

:grr:

(I was too busy screaming obscenities at Haley Barbour ... that was one of the points where I kind of lost it.)

As for the ass-kicking, yeah, I'd like to see that happen :evilgrin:

7. Barbour is an neocon apologist...

...and that interview was a complete lying sham.

Barbour said, "I'm thankful for what the government is doing...and I'm not going to start nitpicking."

Excuse me? Nitpicking?

Expecting the government to help drowning people is nitpicking? It's been four days since the hurricane and there is no cohesive plan, no mass organization to help these people and no significant food and water drops.

They damn well knew a Cat 5 was headed toward NOLA and the surrounding area over the weekend.

They failed. They're still failing. Many are dying right now, because help is not there. That's not nitpicking. Those are facts.

Barbour would excuse whatever Junior did. He's a neocon lap dog and I hope his people turn on him. Hundreds of thousands of people are suffering because of our government's failure to act in a timely manner. Barbour just accused those who don't want to die on a rooftop--of starvation or thirst--of being "nitpickers."

What an ass.

[Atman]

10. Barbour is a good buddy of Bush's. SURPRISE!

He'll defend Bush to the grave.

Or get an enevelope full of Anthrax in the mail.

11. I think we should let CNN

know we appreciate O'Brien asking the tough questions.
