Did the entire Bushco team crawl out since late Sunday

[malaise]

because they wanted to revise the torture meme, because they're worried that they might be implicated in the Bin Laden cover-up or both. How the fugg did they not know he was there since 2005?

[w8liftinglady]

1. I think they are trying desperately to rewrite history to an ignorant flock of sheep

[rbrnmw]

2. sadly it seems to be working their Rovian buzzwords were everywhere

"Victory Lap visit to Ground Zero is grotesque" they aren't even smart enough to do a change up on the wording they all sound like robo calls

[malaise]

6. That was in very bad taste

They have no class - 'vulgar partisans' best describes them.

[malaise]

8. I know that's part of it but is it all of it

I also think they are really upset that Obama has destroyed their 'we keep you sake' myth of a meme.

I hope they find something on them in the goodies from the 'mansion'. :hi:

[Enthusiast]

42. I think you are right........nt

[MadMaddie]

3. I think that the recovered intelligence from the OBL compound

is going to fuck them royally.

I think that they were in cahoots with him and the Pakistanis. I think they are scared and they should be.

[malaise]

4. I almost hope that's true

I still can't believe how many of them crawled out starting with the Dick - he was everywhere - it's almost funny.

[Doctor_J]

9. Funny?

I find it despicable, and would like to fight back at some point before I go.

[malaise]

11. Of course it's despicable but the

speed with which they crawled out is comical.

[rbrnmw]

10. Please oh please let it be so n/t

[kath]

21. Nah, Obama has been shielding Bushco(by refusing to conduct any investigations) and he will continue

to do so. This current admin. will not release info that ties W to OBL or his family.
As another DUer put it yesterday, "sadly, the greatest obstacle to getting the full truth of these past years has been the Obama Administration itself, shielding its predecessor." http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=439&topic_id=1048651&mesg_id=1051931 Why would they stop now?

[virgogal]

30. +1

[Trajan]

5. I think they have already scooted out from the 'torture' thing ...

What they are trying to do is wrest a legacy from Obama as the 'hero' of recent events .... They want to claim as much credit as they can, by hook and by crook, in order to take as much as they can away from Obama .... It's the same was what you see in FB when 'friends' post stories pointedly giving only the soldiers the glory and refusing any credit to the CIC .... The same as what you see on every media outlet where assertions that the Bush Administration is to thank for this .... It's all envy of the black man, sitting in the office of POTUS, using his power to take down the (literally) most wanted criminal since Hitler himself ...

They are trying to deny him .... But even some conservatives cannot go so far .... Let's see how things shape up tomorrow ...

[malaise]

7. I think that's also true

I also have no doubt that they must have been working overtime to coordinate the talking points for the talk shows tomorrow.

They really have come across as nasty mean partisans.

[rbrnmw]

12. Thank my lucky stars my hubby bought a new bottle of tums

The Sunday talk shows will be hell

[bluerum]

13. Interesting point. They are trying to get out front of Usams's insurance policies

possibly stored on a few (hundred) of Usama's thumbs drives. Possibly incriminating data that was meant to be made public if and when Usama was taken down.

I suspect that.

Yes I do.

[rbrnmw]

14. they will lie their way out of it

[The Backlash Cometh]

15. I think they were hoping to frame the issue in their favor.

I don't think it worked.

[malaise]

22. Epic Fail

I agree

[opihimoimoi]

16. If the torturee worked...whad happened to the capture of OBL? 5 years ago they knew and yet did nada

wtf?

They so full of shit....

25. I'm ready for the lies and the spin

Welcome to DU :hi:

[dodger501]

18. Here's all the evidence you need that Bush deserves all the credit

http://christwire.org/2011/05/president-bush-deserves-all-credit-for-killing-osama-bin-laden/

Effing hilarious!

[malaise]

26. That deserves its own thread

Excellent :rofl:

[Enthusiast]

43. Good stuff. nt

[Iggo]

46. Whoo-boy!

Took some work getting through some of the comments, but I was surprised they were nowhere near one-sided.

[hay rick]

19. Bin Laden on the loose (boogeyman!)

was worth more to them than catching or killing bin Laden...

On edit: wrote Obama instead of Osama...red-faced emoticon goes here ->

[malaise]

24. Of course

Fear was working fine for them

[spanone]

20. the lineup on the sunday talk shows have all the criminals except junior himself

holy fuggin jeebus

the media is in overload to spin the message


rice
rumsfeld
cheney
hayden
chertoff
giuliani

[malaise]

23. So much for that so called liberal media

:puke:

[Arctic Dave]

27. I noticed on the news shows the name has changed from Osama to Usama.

I wonder what their angle is.

[butterfly77]

38. I figured they ...

are trying in some way to say USA

[Frustratedlady]

39. The "U" is a reminder not to say Obama in place of Osama.

Too many red faces of late.

[Arctic Dave]

40. I doubt fox would embarrassed.

The others might

[Broadsword]

28. David Frum was interesting on Maher last night.

He said 'Don't prosecute Intelligence professionals', and then Jeremy Skahill jumped down his throat for being complicit in torture.

What Jeremy failed to realize is that Frum left the door open to prosecute the political leadership.

I think Frum is a pretty smart guy.

[malaise]

29. That was a great moment

That frump was sent out to spin away.

[Broadsword]

31. My point was...

That Frum could be the last rational Republican. He left the door open for prosecutions of Rummy, Cheney, Bush, etc.

Jeremy missed an opportunity there, I think.

[malaise]

32. We must have watched two different programs

From wanted Bush to be given credit for getting Bin Laden

[rbrnmw]

34. Here I'll give him credit

If he had not sucked so bad as President and pissed so many people off, Obama may not have won by a landslide giving Rove a chance to steal it for McCain and Obama wouldn't have been president to get him

[Marr]

41. I don't think so. It seems more like he wanted to shift responsibility to

the intelligence community, and then make it disappear entirely by saying, 'let's not take it out on the intelligence community'.

The intelligence problem was that the Bush Administration stovepiped their own propaganda around the real intelligence agencies. The Bush Administration was responsible for the bad intelligence, not the real intelligence agencies.

[Broadsword]

48. Don't I know it...

I have family in one of the Intelligence Agencies. Suffice it to say, they're less than thrilled with Cheney and what he did.

[Iggo]

33. Hopefully, all it does is remind people of exactly who DIDN'T get bin laden. (n/t)

[spanone]

35. bin laden was living in the same house for 4 years of the bu$h* regime

the world's most wanted man

highly recognizable

6' 4"

and nobody saw him.....hmmmm

[Bozita]

36. They've even got Cliff May getting gigs on the cablenews circuit.

Why this guy's opinion on any topic merits any attention mystifies me.

[malaise]

47. Cliff May, Douglas Feith

all the scumbags are visible this week

[butterfly77]

37. Two of the most...

wimpest who seem to have sooooo much to say but, don't know a damn thing are Andy Card and Former Gov Pataki.

These two seem to be the most angriest and almost jumped out of their skins when Obama was elected you can see the hate pouring out of them.Racist bastards..

[malaise]

44. We need to check who was earning money from the

Pakistan lobby, the war contracts lobby, etc.

[Octafish]

45. They let AQ Khan slide.

All that guy did was proliferate the hell out of The Bomb. So, leaving OBL alone until needed is not past their, eh, capabilities.
