"Enough Blame to Go Around"--New Administration Talking Point

[davidlynch]

If you want proof that the MSM is controlled, keep your ears open for the phrase "enough blame to go around" (the implication, of course, being that the Bush Administration need not shoulder the entire blame for NOLA). I've already heard this on a couple of non-correlated shows (one of them being ABC World News).

1. So this means that they're admitting that they own some of the blame

Is this a first?

[linazelle]

4. "Some of the blame" is not enough for me--BUSH is in charge. nt

[eleny]

7. I'm just snaring them with their own admission

They never admit to any wrong doing. Ever. So, you point out that they've finally admitted to something and go from there. For now, their ankle is in the trap - before it's over they're caught by their necks.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

13. Bush AND Republicans are in charge

Republicans passed the budget.

Republicans (mostly) pushed through the war.

Republicans let the protective wetlands wither.

2. Hey, George!!!

The buck stops where?

Oooh...that wouldn't be a bad tee-shirt/bumper sticker.

[abbeyco]

16. How about

Hey George - the flood stops here! :sarcasm:

Clearly he's not in any shape to assist, other than flying down and seeing what everyone else is doing to help.

This is a $hitstorm of major proportions and he's late on the draw, Cheney is house-hunting and Condi is shoe shopping. FEMA, well - they're out trying to buy a game plan for this whole fiasco.

Coming out of my own personal grief, I'm at a loss to comprehend the number of failures by this administration.

3. If we do nothing else, we should blast the media and demand

accountability by asking exactly WHO is in charge of this country? This is BS and I'm tired of the Republicans trying to deflect blame. They tried it all last week, and it keeps coming. They tried the "feds" line--never mentioning Bush. Bush was hit hard in columns across the country leaving his mommy and daddy to defend him today. Bush's entire staff left the country unattended with no plan to reconvene in case of emergency. Condi was buying shoes, Dick Cheney was buying an "estate" somewhere, Bush's PR people were in Greece for a wedding. That's why he couldn't respond in time. Bush and only Bush is responsible for the national security and safety of U. S. citizens.

Sorry for the rant, I was emptying my brain and will probably use it to rebut this tripe.

5. Bush touted how we were all safer due to him and Homeland Security

He was a damn liar.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

6. The blame goes around until it lands on Herr Busch's desk. Period.

[davidlynch]

8. God Damn--You DUers are Feisty--This Was a Big Day

I realize that DUers are normally feisty but you guys are obviously at the end of your respective ropes. This is a good sign. Maybe the end of this corrupt regime really is near.

[Erika]

10. This was a sad day - 10,000 to be declared dead

All of our country should be up in arms.

[Erika]

9. Maybe he has better plans drawn up for GOP strongholds? n/t

[jsamuel]

11. Refutation: PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY FALLS ON THE PRESIDENT

[belle]

12. Oh, NOW they want to share.

Gee, and here I thought there wasn't enough of ANYTHING to go around, to hear them talk--not enough money, not enough jobs, not enough oil, not enough civil rights. Plenty for everyone--as long as you're one of the Elect.

Well, guess what, sunshine? This one's ALLLLLL for you. You don't have to share it with ANYONE. None of that touchy-feely "what's yours is mine" crap. Yes! That's right! You deserve it ALL! For once, it really is ALL ABOUT YOU. Do you like it? Do you love it?? Go on, be a good little Number One Leader of Everything and eat your blame alllllll up.


and may you fucking choke on it.

[wli]

14. Ft. Bragg must be buzzing with talking point generation activity

These things are coming out unbelievably rapidly.

[mirandapriestly]

15. ABC NEWS is being particuliarly bad, I've noticed nt

[tjdee]

17. "The Buck Stope Here." Or ever there. Or over there.

This "pResident" is one punk ass alright.

[MadeinOhio]

18. Who was the cake eater that sat there failing to order North Command?

Sat there while they all suffered....North COMMAND was ready to save the city, no orders given.

[davidlynch]

19. OK--Damn It--ABC's Piece Opened AND Closed with this

Dan Harris "Enough Blame to Go Around", apparently they got the memo, saying that local authorities have the primary responsibility for evacuation.

[bassman79]

20. Even if the locals screwed up...

Where was the Fed respone? Are they saying they don't have any responsiblity to respond? Little confused.

[gatorboy]

21. "Enough Blame to Go Around" is Bush's version of "Duck, duck, GOOSE!"

George Bush:...Duck.......FEMA:....Duck......Homeland Security:....Duck.......Mayor Nagi-GOOSE!!!!
