ThinkingBlue: THE PECKSNIFFERY OF KING GEORGE W. BUSH.

I watched LIVE, George W Bush do lip service on TV to condemn the moveon.org ad criticizing General Petraeus for beating the drum for Bush's War to continue. What a hypocrite! For the president to declare guilty, this organization for calling it like it is and remain silent when his own right winged groups tried to destroy the reputations of two war heroes, Max Cleland and John Kerry, is pathetic beyond belief. When will the pecksiffery stop? I guess it will never cease as long as we settle for unethical and dishonest politicians who blatantly lie and get our votes anyhow.

THE PECKSNIFFERY OF KING GEORGE W. BUSH.

The statement by Bush on September 20, 2007 about the MOVEON.ORG ad was so hypocritical, it needed a retaliation. A like for like. Thank goodness for Keith Olbermann, the detector of hypocrisy, he is a warrior for an honest democracy.

Below are the names of the Democrats who voted with all the Republicans to condemn the moveon.org ad.
Senate Condemns MoveOn Ad!

No Republican voted AGAINST condemning the MoveOn ad. All 25 votes against the amendment were Democrats. But these {craven} Democrats voted with Republicans to condemn the MoveOn ad:

Baucus
Bayh
Cardin
Carper
Casey
Conrad
Dorgan
Feinstein
Johnson
Klobuchar
Kohl
Landrieu
Leahy
Lieberman
Lincoln
McCaskill
Mikulski
Nelson, Ben
Nelson, Bill

One interesting note: Some of the senators who won the greatest support from the netroots in the last election, like McCaskill, Tester, Klobuchar, and Webb, voted to condemn the ad.
