BARBARA'S TCHATZKAHS

THE TURDBLOSSOMS ARE IN BLOOM AGAIN Karl, Karl, Karl - what are we going to do with you? I caught your performance on Fox News on Sunday. I bet Rep. Chris Van Hollen went home and took a hot shower after talking to you... or attempting to. I get as fed up with media spin as everyone else. I get fed up when people try to lie to me or play me for a fool. That tells me one horrible thing: THAT I WAS NOT WORTH THE TRUTH. Please don't bother telling me you were 'trying to let me down easy' or you 'knew I'd be hurt.' And Karl, what's your excuse? Karl, do you think the American people are such morons that they would actually believe your non-stop rewriting of history, bending of the time space continuum and denial of already well-documented facts? Come on. That reeks of some sort of mental disorder. Karl, you're not on the job anymore. I know a couple great therapists who work with antisocials like you in the D.C. area. They're discreet. I know yo...

SEVEN LEVEL WIPE When I was a new mother, I had a huge 'diaper bag' packed with formula, bottles, diapers and loads of baby wipes. For years after I had a packet of baby wipes in my purse too. After I heard about this 7-Level Wipe I thought perhaps it was a new product for those really messy moments . It's not but it sure IS a REALLY MESSY MOMENT! The Bush Administration really needed classes in Ass-Covering 101. And how to cover your own while you are covering someone elses. This guy called GEEK SQUAD rather than his own I.T. people and then had the temerity AND stupidity to pay for the 7-level wipe with an agency credit card (traceable). And now he tries to say it was for a "virus"? SCOTT BLOCH YOU WIN MY GOLDEN (B.S.) SHOVEL OF THE WEEK AWARD!

FUNDAMENTAL BETRAYAL ACCORDING TO THE 'JERK AT THE PODIUM' Is this news to anyone? Really? If it is than either you are in total denial or have been confined to a cave since 2000. I hope Valerie Plame-Wilson will finally get some justice, too. Scott McClellan in Upcoming Book Ties Bush to CIA Leak Case -- Dodd Calls for Probe To no one's surprise in a world where top White House aides with any president eventually write a book about it, former Press Secretary Scott McClellan will be coming out with his volume in April. It's called "What Happened" and its publisher, Public Affairs, at its Web site now carries this brief excerpt -- which set off a media firestorm on Tuesday. It also led to a call for a full probe by a top U.S. senator and condemnation from former CIA agent Valerie Plame. E&P was first mainstream news outlet to report on Monday night that the McClellan excerpt reads: "The most powerful leader in the world had called upon me to speak on ...

ROVE RESIGNED? HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY! I tried so hard not to do the happy dance here. We still have Chimpy and Dead-Eye Dick to contend with, and Rove has left the Administration with a mess in Iraq and an economy that's tanking to contend with. They can credit him with his exploiting the Religious Right and engineering voting manipulation. Now let's see if he gets immunity from the investigations currently ongoing. But this kind of slime always pops up some place else. Some other political garbage scow is probably in his sights right now. He'll "put his feet up in September and think about that"? Wow, do I smell a big, stinkin'. remorseless Destructive Narcissist ? Why, yes I do. Someone follow him out with the Febreze, please. Still, allow me a few moments of happy dancing. While I dance, read on: Top White House aide Karl Rove to resign at end of month Top White House political adviser Karl Rove, who masterminded President George W. Bush's politica...

INFINITY MINUS 140,216 STILL LOVE YOU, KEITH!! by David Edwards and Muriel Kane "In Watergate, America was astounded by the fact that 18 1/2 minutes of secret presidential recordings were missing," stated Keith Olbermann on Monday. "Tonight the latest Bush administration scandal, as yet unchristened, makes that figure seem like a drop in the proverbial bucket. Try this number: Infinity minus 140,216. Karl Rove's improper emails. The 140,000 are the ones still preserved. The rest -- the infinity part -- the ones that were destroyed." Olbermann went on to describe the "jaw-dropping scandal" uncovered by Congressional investigators, where, in the most serious breach of the Presidential Records Act since its enactment, hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of emails improperly sent by White House officials through outside emails servers may have been illegally destroyed. As one example of the vast scope of the destruction, only 130 of Karl Rove's em...
