Yo Quiero Jesusland.

A riddle.

Q: How is a Bush Supreme Court nomination like Ken Mehlman availing himself of Jeff Gannon’s “professional” services?

A: Both are carefully scripted, run at seventeen-smirks-per-second, last about as long as a Taco Bell commercial and are strictly “No Questions Asked”.


I have just received marching orders from Eleanor Roosevelt Memorial Secret Liberal World Headquarters.

Transmission follows...

--------------------------------------

Dear Freedom Lovers,

For the next ten days, please make sure every conversation you have with the press or with Republicans features the following three elements:

Step 1: “Because we believe so strongly in the Rule of Law, we will give President Bush’s nomination of John G. Roberts Jr. as an associate justice to the Supreme Court the time, attention and careful deliberation it deserves in five weeks, when the Senate reconvenes. In the mean time...”

Step 2: “Because we believe so strongly in the Rule of Law, we urge President Bush to repudiate the reckless, irresponsible and treasonous behavior of Karl Rove, and demand that Mr. Rove accept Personal Responsibility for his actions publicly apologize to the individuals he harmed, the security agencies he compromised and the America people, who’s trust he betrayed. We further urge President Bush to keep his word to the American people and fire Mr. Rove, as he promised he would do to ‘anyone involved’ in the Plame Scandal. And...”

Step 3: “Because we believe so strongly in the Rule of Law, we urge President Bush to keep his word to the American people, demand that anyone else involve in the reckless, irresponsible and treasonous behavior that let to the Plame Scandal come forward, apologize, and accept Personal Responsibility for their actions.”

Transmission from global Liberal HQ ends.

Liberal HQ also sent along a nice Alaskan smoked salmon gift basket and a bottle of Calvados, but those I'm keeping for myself.
