Dumb, Dumber, and Dumbest (Conde Nast Portfolio)
2008-04-15 21:07:00 "Our first M.B.A. president has not been a good advertisement for business school."- Jacob Weisberg, writing in the April 8, 2008 issue of Conde Nast Portfolio magazine, about The Decider's performance as M.B.A.-in-Chief. That's how his essay "The Economy's B Team" starts; here's how it ends: "Let us hope that the next president understands what decision-making is, not just what it looks like." Amazon.com Widgets

Bill Maher: The Decider (HBO Video/DVD) (2007) R 60 min
2008-02-07 06:25:00 This is one of the best Bill Maher’s stand up comedy shows. He performs on stage in Boston in jeans and t-shirt, some time after the Bush’s “surge” began and presidential campaigns were at full speed, probably summer of 2007 when it came out live on HBO, ironically on the day Bush had a colonoscopy. He talks about Giuliani, conservatives and liberals, mess in Iraq, the “homosexuals on the march to destroy America”, “no child left behind”, “abstinence programs” and other “achievements” of Bush administration. His performance literally begins with describing Bush as incompetent f***-up. He also talks about many other issues such as abortion, gay marriage, double standards, cronyism, environment, pop culture, the wall Bush proposed to build along US/Mexico border, hypocrisy of religious right (”I’m sorry religion is so retarded, but it is”) etc. If you are Maher’s fan, or if you love Jon ...
the decider?
2008-01-10 07:17:00 So, it’s coming down to the wire around here. My primary is coming up next month, and I’m still on the fence. I’m having trouble finding the nuances of difference between Clinton, Obama and Edwards, and I have to say, the debates are really helping. I posted a quiz site a while back, and I just ...

The Question Everyone Should Be Asking The Decider
2007-09-07 22:49:00 Why did you decide to invade Iraq and let Osama go free?New Videotape From Bin Laden; Al Qaeda's No. 1 Still Alive Intelligence sources tell ABC News they believe the video message from Osama bin Laden is authentic, recently produced and evidence the al Qaeda leader is still alive.According to government sources, an initial analysis of the tape indicates "a lot of chest thumping" and of course historical references "alluding" to the successful attack on New York.And a CIA spokesman told ABC News, "It's quite possible this is a new video."U.S. authorities earlier this morning said the tape's transcript is aimed at potential suicide bombers who he urges to carry out missions against the West.The Bush administration has many failures but that Osama bin Laden is still free and alive has to be the biggest. At least a portion of the miserable Bush legacy will be that they let Osama get away - the "real enemy" get away. Not only did they let him get away the Bush administration has done...
Who's In Charge, Who's The Decider?
2007-09-05 14:56:00 I know that I'm not the smartest guy in the world, so I guess I need some help. I would like to know just who is the Decider....George Bush cannot-or will not-remember being briefed on the dismantling of the Iraqi Army. I thought he made those types of decisions for this country?According to writer Robert Draper of "Dead Certain" Ambassador Paul Bremer made that decision for him.In an interview with Robert Draper, Mr. Bush sounded as if he had been taken aback by the decision, or at least by the need to abandon the original plan to keep the army together even though he wrote back to Ambassador Bremer, that he had his support to do so."The policy had been to keep the army intact; didn't happen," Mr. Bush told the interviewer. When Mr. Draper asked the president how he had reacted when he learned that the policy was being reversed, Mr. Bush replied, "Yeah, I cannot remember, I'm sure I said, "This is the policy, what happened?"Mr. Bremer, in Baghdad, had issued the order disbandin...
Report: 'The decider' closer to reminding us why he's unworthy of that role

The Decider Decides that Cheney is above the Law
2007-06-24 20:44:00 Really, this is long past being funny. White House Defends Cheney’s Refusal of Oversight: “This is a little bit of a nonissue,” Perino said at a briefing dominated by the issue. Cheney is not subject to the executive order, she said, “because the president gets to decide whether or not he should be treated separately, ...

The Framers Got It Right: Congress is the Decider
2007-05-27 23:27:00 George Lakoff and Glenn Smith write:The Rockridge Institute issues a call to action in response to Congress's passage of the Iraq supplemental spending bill.Critics of Congress's passage this week of the Iraq supplemental spending bill lament a lack of political courage. But Congress would find it easier to act courageously if the public understood the constitutional stakes. And that public understanding requires correct and persistent framing by Congress itself. What needs to have been framed - indeed what still needs to be framed - is Congress's constitutional responsibility and power to set the course on military missions like Iraq....Technorati tags: Rockridge Institute, Congress, Constitution, War Powers, Bush, news, commentary
The Decider Has Decided: Give Me a Catastrophe and I'll Be Your Emperor, or
2007-05-22 01:39:00 Just when you thought it was safe to start thinking about something innocuous like the primaries, that now start next January, thanks to Florida and New Hampshire . . . just when you thought it was safe, well, Bush progressed from anointing himself King (wiretapping private citizens without a warrant, the Patriot Act, retaliating against whistleblowers, firing federal judges, torturing anywhere and everywhere, the slaughtering of Habeas Corpus, etc.) to anointing himself Emperor. Yes, Julius Caesar Bush, you are now closer to God on the level of unprecedented Executive branch powers in the United States of America. (The same U.S. of A. that opted NOT to have a king--remember "taxation without representation"? The Revolutionary War, anyone?)And just how did Bush accomplish anointing himself Emperor of America? Quietly, without so much as a whisper in the mainstream press, and disguised with mysterious and ambiguous, you guessed it, verbiage. The one article on the feat was in The ...

I Thought HE Was The Decider
2007-05-07 00:41:00 We need a "War Czar" says President Bush to oversee the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.My only question is, isn't this a job for the President himself? Does he oversee wars? Isn't he the Decider after all?Perhaps he has privately realized and admitted to himself how bad he's bungled it and is now ready to turn the wars over to some unelected trigger happy neocon to wash his hands of this.Then he can get back to the real business of being a Republican President, pandering to the religious right.

HE'S NOT THE DECIDER FOR THE UNITED STATES SENATE
2007-03-23 01:12:00 "What we're told we can get is nothing, nothing, nothing," said Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., the Judiciary chairman. "I know he's the decider for the White House _ he's not the decider for the United States Senate."So be it... the fight has begun, between the executive and legislative branches. Even though we haven't heard from Karl Rove, the White House has stated that he and his deputies can talk to lawmakers in private as the best deal Democrats are going to get.Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, vowed he would not step aside and promised to cooperate with Congress in the inquiry. He also stated, "I'm not going to resign, no U.S. Attorney was fired for improper reasons."As Talks go on behind the scenes, the White House and majority Democrats engaged in strategic posturing before the cameras. King George and his Court stands firm, not knowing that the new Sheriff (Democrat), in town is standing firm, just willing to let this King know, that when all the dust settles, not all th...

2006-12-12 21:12:03 Brangelina and kids in Hello! Magazine Mad (Maddox) with Pitt aka Dad For the first time since Angelina Jolie, 31, and Brad Pitt, 42, coupled up, she opens up in January’s Vogue and comes clean about the chemistry on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith when he was still married to Jennifer Aniston. Pitt: “Brad was a huge surprise to me. I, like most people, had a very distant impression of him from ? the media. I am just as guilty! ? We push each other to be better. Even if it’s just a better bike rider or a better pilot. We’re constantly in competition with each other. He’s somebody I admire based on the way he lives his life. And that’s why I’m with him.” He is also “the person closest to me.” Their relationship: Jolie and Pitt weren’t looking for love on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, but she admits that is where they started to fall in love. During filming, the co-stars “found this strange friendship and...
