MSNBC: "I don't want a President who is taking a six week vacation."

[kerry-is-my-prez]

Some Colonel said it and Scarborough agreed......

[H2O Man]

1. It actually is. n/t

[laureloak]

2. He's intent on blaming the Mayor & Gov as I hear it.

Doing damage control for the feds.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

3. They are bitching about FEMA, Trent Lott pissed

n/t

[kerry-is-my-prez]

4. This is good....

He has some Colonel on there who says that Bush has the ultimate responsibility.

Saying everyone ws on vacation and no-one would make a decision.

[justiceischeap]

6. Scarborough agreed with the Colonel, Bush is ultimately responsible

[AlCzervik]

7. I hope this change sticks, maybe this disaster opened his eyes

for real.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

5. "I don't want a President who is taking a six week vacation."

OMG!

[H2O Man]

11. Unreal.

The colonel is a Bush supporter who is nailing him for failing the country. This is an important show. Joe isn't parroting the party line.

[Sapphire Blue]

13. "... while people are dying."

[Armstead]

8. Whoa! Right wing military guy blasting Bush

"I don't want a president who takes six weeks off when people are dying, whether it's in New Orleans or Iraq."

[Esse Quam Videri]

12. Heard that too

Scarborough didn't really know how to respond to that

[Ilsa]

27. Retired military, right? I mean, could an active duty

soldier say something like that without fear of prosecution?

[krkaufman]

40. "... whether in New Orleans *or* Iraq" --- POW!!

Nows the time to come out w/ the video clips of Bush saying, post-9/11, that he "would not rest" until the terrorists were caught -- as a montage flipping back-and-forth between vacation clips of * and the many disasters of his Administration.

[Sydnie]

9. Dayum - who knew Joe could put down the talking points long enough

to actually make sense!

[LSK]

10. "the buck stops with the president"

Ok, Im really on bizairo world because both of these guys said they supported Bush but now they both admit that he is ultimately responsible.

Scarborough, Anderson Cooper, and others - this disaster is waking some people up bigtime. I really think these guys are waking up because they are still there a week later. They could easily head back to their comfy homes and offices, but they are staying down there.

[maine_raptor]

16. Add to the list

Novak, Jonah Goldberg, Charles Krauthammer, Michelle Malkin, Deroy Murdock, and George Will

[Gabi Hayes]

21. NOT Malkin.....she is BLAMING in a most scathing manner:

Blanco and Nagin


that article which trumpets her calling for Brown's head states quite clearly later on that the BLAME for this rests on those two's heads

read the whole article

[maine_raptor]

25. I confess I didn't read it

Don't want to soil my memory banks with her verbal droolings.

The list was from Keith O's blog

[Berry Cool]

37. Keith was not saying Malkin was one of the critics.

He was saying that today's editorial in the Union-Leader of Manchester, New Hampshire was critical of Bush. And one would normally not expect to find criticism of Bush in a paper so conservative that the national columnists it runs are Robert Novak, Jonah Goldberg, Charles Krauthammer, Michelle Malkin, Deroy Murdock and George Will.

He did not say that all those columnists came out against Bush.

on edit: In excitable times such as these, it's even more important to read and listen carefully so as not to unintentionally pass along untruths.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

23. This makes me rethink whether Bush is going to get away with this.

must not get hopes up

[darkworkz]

44. he's not...

[Pirate Smile]

14. Wow. This was great. Two "former" Bush supporters just railing on

him.

Thank God. I was worried yesterday that the Rove slime machine might work and I was very upset that my fellow Americans could possibly be that indifferent, stupid or cruel. I feel much better about my fellow Americans tonight.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

15. I see a herd of pigs flying by my window...

They also had Trent Lott bitching about the Feds.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

17. Amazing...Joe putting ultimate responsibility on bush.

Somewhere pigs are flying.

[mzmolly]

18. Scarborough also said "The buck stops with Bush"

:wow:

He could probably use a bit of feedback from rational people.

[NNN0LHI]

19. He is desperately trying to keep his ratings up so he doesn't get canceled

He knows that sucking Bush's ass right now will not play well in Peoria. He just wants to hold in there for a while until this blows over without getting the axe and then he will be back to the same old "dead girl in his office" Joe. Promise.

22. Do you not believe that some events

can be life-altering? Many, many people's eyes have been opened during this disaster. Who knows? Joe could be one of them.

[NNN0LHI]

35. He was a politician which means he is practiced at bullshitting people

As for the "Do you not believe that some events can be life-altering?" question my answer is absolutely yes there are events that can be can be life-altering. I seen it happen right before my eyes once. Over 30 years ago I watched a guy have a bad LSD trip and turn into an instant Jesus Freak. Last time I seen him he was walking down the street carrying a bible mumbling some shit to himself.

Don

[Blue_In_AK]

43. Good one.....

Well, maybe you're right about Joe. He's not one of my favorites, to be sure. I'll take a "wait-and-see" attitude.

[gulfcoastliberal]

38. You got that right.

He is one manipulative lying POS and it's a damn shame the Pensacola News Journal covered his ass for him when he "retired" in disgrace from the House and continues to do so to this day. The guy nauseates me with his beady eyes and rotten ethics. I'm with you 100% regarding your analysis of the scumbag.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

20. For those who missed this... You must watch the replay.

I'm taping it.

[Cleita]

24. Every six months it seems like. n/t

[kerry-is-my-prez]

26. Joe's po'd becasue his friends from Fla. Panhandle are yelling at him.

They're yelling and screaming to Joe - he said he has been hearing from all of them.

He was a Rep. from that area.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

31. People from Fla. are going to start getting worried- we have a hurricane

heading here. AND we have incompetent idiots in charge (Bush AND Brown)

[LSK]

33. i think its more than that

Hes on the ground there and he can see firsthand how little help FEMA is doing.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

41. A lot of those reporters who are there are changing their tunes

EXCEPT Tucker Carlson. I think he's a Sociopath.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

28. Vacation's over

[bluedawg12]

30. He's less dangerous when he's not there-take another

6 weeks.

[faithnotgreed]

42. hi bluedawg - welcome to du

[FyurFly]

29. It's like dejavu...

Same month giant fucking mess, 9/11, katrina. Bush you fucking suck. I will die (hopefully an old man) regretting the vote I cast for Bush in 2000.

[SlowDownFast]

34. Welcome to DU, FyurFly!

Glad to see you made it here.

[FyurFly]

36. Thank You

It feels good to vent!!! My wife has been a bit concerned about me during the Katrina Debacle, she thinks i'll need too have my blood pressure medicine raised if I keep yelling at the TV!

[kerry-is-my-prez]

39. Have you seen any people from the red cross or from the federal govt.?
