[ProSense]

1. You're using Rostenkowski to slam Holder?

Bitter?

[rateyes]

2. I'm using the fact that he wasn't afraid to prosecute criminals

at one time.

7. As the old saying goes, "you are known by the company you keep."

[ProSense]

8. So you're saying he's good, but

you just don't like what he's doing? How does that fit with "Change my ass?"

You're simply rehashing the same crap and none of it makes sense in context.

[rateyes]

9. I'm saying that he changed from someone who used to prosecute criminals

to someone who refuses to prosecute criminals if they were part of the Bush Administration. Thus, no change from the Bush Administration.

14. lol

i thought that was amusing too!

i mean, the hair alone was a low grade felony

[asdjrocky]

18. Is that the new word?

I've seen so many people called bitter here the last few days by just a few different people.

I find that funny.

5. K&R

Pretty hard to defend the indefensible, but I'm sure some here will try.

[tblue]

6. I can't stand it.

I keep hoping, but I'm done torturing myself. This freeze has pushed me over the edge. Just how tone deaf is he?

[rateyes]

10. I've finally figured out what he meant by "change you can believe in."

It meant, "you can believe that I will change from the way I say I will govern ("Yeah, I don't do cowering." Remember that quote?) into governing as someone who compromises away all the progressive ideals in order to be "bipartisan." (doing cowering).

:banghead:

[FrenchieCat]

11. Here.....

[rateyes]

12. No, thanks.

I don't need them. You can add it to your stash.

[FrenchieCat]

15. You said to Change your ass..., didn't you?

:shrug:

[rateyes]

27. No, I said Change,(comma) my ass. Subtle difference. And,

I didn't say change my diaper. I can't actually change my ass, unless I get implants. :evilgrin:

[rateyes]

13. And, while you're at it,

why don't you try defending those fuckers? Tell us all about the change those guys are bringing to help out the working class.

I'm all ears.

[Subdivisions]

17. May as well put those ears back in their holsters. You won't need

them or your eyes.

19. Well Don't vote for him again.

Do we really need another fucking "Change" "This is Change?" "Change my ass" Thread?

[LoZoccolo]

20. Yes, because there are only five staff & cabinet members. n/t

[asdjrocky]

21. What a great bunch of millionaires.

Leave the millionaires alone! Just leave them alone!

[LWolf]

23. Don't forget Arne Duncan.

The privatizer, union-buster, and corporate stooge who has never taught a student, and who is happy to move the destructive corporate education agenda forward.

[Canuckistanian]

24. You forgot Arne Duncan

CHICAGO -- Soon after Arne Duncan left his job as schools chief here to become one of the most powerful U.S. education secretaries ever, his former students sat for federal achievement tests. This month, the mathematics report card was delivered: Chicago trailed several cities in performance and progress made over six years.

~

"There's been this rhetoric about dramatic gains, dramatic success, that we have to replicate this model because of its dramatic success," said Julie Woestehoff of the advocacy group Parents United for Responsible Education. "And here in Chicago, we're looking at these schools and going, 'Uh . . . ' "
