Cheney..We are well on our way on getting on top of this Katrina EXERCISE

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

I just saw that on the MSNBC scroll.

Exercise?

[Julius Civitatus]

1. Slip of the tongue... Freudian slip...

How much money will Cheney make off the reconstruction of NOLA?

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

4. I've mentioned it on other threads. They captured their 1st US City. nt

[Brother Buzz]

56. What does Cheney want with a city?

I heard he bought a state last week. ;)

[electropop]

35. Cheney on top of Katrina... eeeewwwwww

:puke:

[halobeam]

2. Okay, that's it, I'm having a beer. If you knew me, it isn't often I do.

:banghead:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

3. lol! I think I'll join you, and pour myself a glass of wine, which I don't

do all that frequently! The cool thing is that they keep scrolling it!

[postulater]

18. Good idea, Beamish for me!

[Pacifist Patriot]

23. I'm too damned tired to have a drink tonight. I think it would kill me.

But boy is it tempting.

[flyarm]

39. martini for me..if i am going i am going all the way!!!

:toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast: :silly: :silly: :silly: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hangover: :hide: :hide: :hide: :hide: :hide: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

[Fly by night]

52. For me, there's nothing that a drink wouldn't make worse. I've had enough.

Enough of our country going down the tubes, with a drunk at the helm.

[Bluebear]

5. EXERCISE???? Are these people just plain out and out saying it now?

They seem so emboldened and heartless and just DO NOT CARE who hears it anymore.

[fooj]

30. In plain sight. That's how they work, bear.

Always...in plain sight.

Peace.

[flyarm]

40. you got it fooj!!!!!!!!!!!

[fooj]

49. Very nice. Creativity is key!

:tinfoilhat: :tinfoilhat: :tinfoilhat: :tinfoilhat: :tinfoilhat: :tinfoilhat:

[leesa]

57. You are absolutely right. But it's still so stunning when they do it!

[dweller]

6. can anyone get a screenshot of that?

for it's doubtful it will ever be quoted or spoken on the 'news' ...

dp

[jillan]

7. Cheney needs more exercise! Like a long jog from DC to jail n/t

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

53. Excellent idea. I want them all in Gitmo, lights on 24/7 and throw

away the key!

[highplainsdem]

8. He really called it that. I Googled that and found a TVNZ story

listed ("Katrina rescuers collect the dead") at http://tvnz.co.nz/view/page/411749/610303 , but so far I can't get that page to open so I can read the story.

[mom cat]

38. link and quote

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=106&topic_id=22805&mesg_id=23284

[sunnystarr]

45. That links to this priceless Yahoo headline

Rescuers collect dead, Cheney sounds upbeat

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050910/ts_nm/katrina_wrap_dc_19

I missed the equally priceless Cheney quote when skimming the article earlier. If they have to have their photo ops they should learn to zip their lips and just shut up.

[John Doe II]

9. Yes, Sigi Freud

Maybe Cheney mixed up that FEMA excercised almost exactly for the sceanrio tat actually happened with Katrina in 2004.

[bluedawg12]

11. So wry, so detached, so calculatingly warm and fuzzy

like a tombstone.

[HereSince1628]

26. He misunderstood how to implement RNC's weekend meme

He should have never ad libed on a euphemism for one of the deadliest, most disruptive, most expensive natural catastrophe's ever in American history...Rove is gonna fuck him when he gets back to DC!

[bluedawg12]

54. He's so detached from it all it's just an exercise in management

you know, a case study, like in Bizz School.

[Spinzonner]

10. He was probably just flashing back to his 9/11 activities

[IndyOp]

21. I caught that - I just wanted you to know...

If you keep repeating yourself you might just be able to catapult the truth.

:kick:

[Merrick]

12. This guy says it all.

i'm sure its been posted before, but its just so great. Go fuck yourself indeed.

http://www.big-boys.com/articles/cheneyfbomb.html

[bleever]

13. How very touching. You could almost hear the clicking of his heart.

Make him haul some corpses. A little humanity might rub off on him.

[highplainsdem]

14. Okay, found a Yahoo news (Reuters) story with the full quote:

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050910/us_nm/cheney_dc_4

Cheney held up Texas, which took in tens of thousands of evacuees from Louisiana in places like the Houston Astrodome, as a model of effective crisis management.

"There are a lot of lessons we want to learn out of this process in terms of what works," Cheney said.

"I think we are in fact on our way to getting on top of the whole Katrina exercise," he said, but added, "we've got a lot of work ahead of us obviously."

[highplainsdem]

15. Another, actual headline: "Rescuers collect dead, Cheney sounds upbeat"

http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20050910/ts_nm/katrina_wrap_dc_19

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

16. OMG! Jon Stewart is right! He's a killer cyborg! nt

[riverwalker]

17. such machismo talk

from a guy who needs to haul 6 paramedics
along on a fishing trip. Think I am kidding?

http://www.billingsgazette.com/index.php?display=rednews/2005/08/03/build/local/65-cheney.inc

"He said the shop, which also provides lodging, was putting up four Secret Service agents and six ambulance personnel."

[arikara]

47. Is that all he ever does is kill fish while

plotting Haliburton's next takeover? He occasionally fouls the Hudson Bay Lodge up in Smithers BC too, apparently its supposed to be all hush hush but everyone knows everything in small towns.

[Stinky Bushes]

19. Exercise in genocide that is...

doesn't Cheney realize his big behind could be impeached for this? He'd better get ready. It's comin' if I have anything to do with it.

[applegrove]

20. Cheney knows better. A convenient slip of the tongue?

[fooj]

32. In plain sight. Applegrove- that's how they operate.

Take a look at this...a response regarding FEMA aid.
"Not one of them mentioned any of it," Cheney said in response to a question. "They're all very thankful where they find themselves right now."

He said the federal government will help state and local governments pay for costs of educating children evacuated from their homes, "so that the burden doesn't fall totally on the local school system."


Yikes. It can't happen soon enough. These rat bastards are way out of control..

Peace.

[applegrove]

34. It is nothing but lies & hypocrite talks. The Wall of Lies.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

50. Yes Fooj, everything they have done is in plain sight, right under our

noses, stealing America from us. They just killed, with cold deliberation one of our most treasured cities. Joe Allbaugh who went to Baghdad and sold it to highest bidders now has his filthy hands on New Orleans. So frigging obvious. Look how quickly they came in, like carrion, with those poor broken bodies still lying there.

Peace,and many god/goddess help us all.

[WiseButAngrySara]

51. God help me, I believe you're right....This is a nightmare......n/t

[Pacifist Patriot]

22. Someone needs to put Cheney on the couch.

I'm presently being blown away by Bush On the Couch. (If the person who recommended that to me stumbles on this, thank you!)

I'd like to see a similar psychoanalytic treatment of Cheney.

[tallahasseedem]

24. Exercise?!?

Was there a treadmill around that could have possibly thrown off his train of thought. What an ass.

[are_we_united_yet]

25. Well then there is only one thjing left for me to do...

:puke: :puke:
:puke: :puke:
:puke: :puke:
:puke: :puke:

27. You must admit.......

You feel the love..........

:puke::puke:
:puke::puke:

[Gregorian]

28. All together now- Mr. Cheney, go fuck yourself.

[tlsmith1963]

31. I Second It!

And I would say it to his face if I had the chance.

Tammy

[KayLaw]

29. Heck of an exercise.

Took the guns even, just like I suspected. I'll be danged!

[CoffeeCat]

33. Can someone help me fill in the blanks...what are they "exercising" for?

An "exercise" implies that someone is rehearsing or perfecting their skills. An exercise is something from which you learn--and apply what you learned to some grander plan or activity.

Ummmm. Ok. That's. SCARY.

If Katrina is an "exercise", what in the frick are they rehearsing for?

Also--I think this was a TOTAL slip. "Exercise" is probably a word they constantly use in their private meetings. Just like Rumsfeld, when he "accidentally" said that Flight 93 was shot down, or when a politician said, "Barney fag". That's how they speak all of the time, among each other. Every once in a while they slip up.

They've obviously had numerous conversations about Katrina's aftermath and how this is an "exercise"--like a rehearsal. I imagine they'll be "testing" certain ridiculous, racist, inhumane, unConstitutional ideas that they have in mind. They'll float them up, and see how the public reacts.

Remember when Trent Lott slipped up after 9/11 and said, "Now we can do all of the things we've always wanted to do!" referring to the Patriot Act, etc. NOLA is another opportunity for them.

NOLA--a city that will be bulldozed to the ground--will be their great experiment....their "exercise."

So, what are they practicing for?

They certainly can't cause another hurricane and the decimation of other cities.

[tom_paine]

36. Many have said the FEMA delays were purposeful

Meaning, this is a social experiment, and an execise for what they and their progeny intend to do to all of us, eventually.

Just another Freudian slip from the most evil people EVER to rule America.

I have no doubt they have learned many things by purposefully neglecting NO.

And also, they have helped to forever eliminate a Democratic stronghold, and that's ALWAYS a bonus for them.

[Pachamama]

37. I agree - they are watching very closely how the American Sheeple react

and how much they can actually "get away" with....

A social experiment indeed.... :scared:

So the real question is this: Will the American people continue to sleep? :shrug:

[tom_paine]

42. Yes, sadly, the answer is yes

And even if the Imperial Subjects of Amerika would wake, it's not as if we will have an opportunity to "vote" out THE PARTY'S Handpicked Imperial Successor.

Oh, we will go into a booth and push a couple buttons, but they might as well be attached to a hamster wheel.

I am going to work for the Dems in '06 and '08, but I have absolutely no illusions about what kind of country I live in.

A Third World Country.

[jim3775]

43. Not just a social experiment, a business experiment

A bungling incompetent FEMA makes people more apt to support the privatization of the DHS, which is what they really want.

[struggle4progress]

46. Take a catastrophe, spread some rumors, send in folks with guns, ..

.. organize mass deportations, keep the press out ...

Practice makes perfect, ya know ...

[latebloomer]

41. Very sinister

and very telling.

[are_we_united_yet]

44. In the last throes.

:puke:

[shance]

48. Exercise - as in break those levees and BRING IT ON***

Thats what it means.

[Jeanette in FL]

55. From the beginning, I felt this was by design

The delay of 5 days getting supplies into New Orleans. I don't think it was incompetence at all. They knew chaos would prevail in a volatile atmosphere. And they wanted to see how the American people would react. They don't even care that we know what they are doing. It is correct, saying as fooj did, They do it in plain site.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

58. And look how quickly heads are getting together to plan a new and improved

New Orleans. How quickly Nagin purchased a home in Dallas. How quickly Bushco's cronies are getting big contracts. I think that they are going to have much of this backfiring on them. I am getting the distinct impression that all of the toxicity is going to make a large part of NOLA uninhabitable for quite some time.

[Solly Mack]

59. Yeah, my husband and I said days ago it had the feel of

a military exercise rather than a relief effort
