[mizpah63]

According to the article, Bartlett's expected departure date is around July 4. Independence Day will be especially worth celebrating this year.

Yes, the private sector now has access to another Bush crony. It's sad there's such a big market for lies, distortions and shameless right-wing propaganda.

[jerr11]

Time to cash in, Dan.

You've paid your dues, helped this administration embark on the most ambitious corruption scheme ever, in the nations's history -- created a war where the prime instigators of the war is its biggest benefactors!

All hail to the the greatest scammers in history, our beloved VP, ******** Cheney and his co-conspirators, Wolfowitz, Perl, and their lapdog, George.

[johnshaft4]

As attested by the abject failure of the Bush administration, who would want to hire any of his so called "advisors" or "aides"? What a pack of losers...

[bm6005]

Only 36? He's still young enough to go off to Iraq and put his life on the line for George's noble cause there.

Really good point there. I think we should volunteer his name to the military, altho he'd be an a$$wipe officer I'm sure. Probably wouldn't get out of the Emerald City!!

[seanyg2]

Huh, .. Oh, Yeah... Bartlett... no jail timer huh?...
Is Bush still in office too?..
.. & Cheney?...

Huh... sounds like Bush thinks a troop drawn down MIGHT be in order.. JUST before next year's elections.

When will we send the war criminals to jail, & elect REAL representatives again?...

"...one of a few people who can give the president bad news..."


"He can talk to the president in a candid way, in sort of a family way, that almost nobody else can," White House chief of staff Joshua Bolten told The Associated Press.




What are we doing with a leader who can't be given bad news?

What are we doing with a leader who doesn't want frank advice from the people around him who's job it is to give him frank advice?

What are we doing with a leader who can't be bothered with reality?

What are we doing with a leader who surrounds himself with yes-men?

Bush would make a great delusional, maniacle dictator but the leader of the free world?

God save us from the worst leader we've ever had.

Only 36? He's still young enough to go off to Iraq and put his life on the line for George's noble cause there. Lots of husbands and fathers of young families already over there fighting W's 'war on terror' to help keep America safe. I'm sure there are loads of recruiting offices in Texas that will gladly help Dan sign up to do his patriotic duty.

[bm6005]

This guys 36 yrs old. What the f*k does he know to be an advisor? What can he possibly bring to the table having spent his entire life as a political yahoo??!! This country is sick. What ever happened to the wise old men? This kid can't wipe his own a$$ in the real world!!!

Off Topic ! ! !
I missed the original "Topic"
But ! This does have a relationship

Topic : Putin: U.S. Pursuing "Imperialist" Policy

Putin is right on - He couldn't - of defined the :
"Bush Administration" - More clearly"

Remember :
No one hates a : "Nazi" more so than a : "Communist"

It was the :
The "Reagan" - Communist witch hunts that
Defined him - as a : "Nazi"

The "Nazi" ideology - The "Communist" ideology.

Both striving for the same : Objectivity

One extremley rich society.
One extremley poor society.
(No middle class)

Both battling for World Conquest

"One World Order" - under - "One Subversive Ideology"

Ruled by one Totalitarian :
"Dictator"

It's too bad - Putin - does not give up
The evidence for the world to see.

He has it ! ! !

There was a time when - "Treason"
Was a criminal offense.

F*kin Texans. May they all rot in hell!!!

Getting on the last life boat before the Bush Titanic presidency goes completely under. He hung in there longer than most of the neocons, but delivering the bad news everyday was probably a super duper drag, espcially when it is well known that dubya can't handle anything not going his way.

I am surprised he lasted this long.

[blindersoff]

Hang up your spurs? This is all a game to these people and the ones that blindly follow them, please know that this group of individuals could CARE LESS about this country. They are concerned with making money, and the welfare of their immediate circle of friends and family. I don't understand the people that can dispute this fact. No regrets? I bet you don't. You didn't lose anybody in Iraq, come from a neighborhood that has lost some in Iraq, or feel this war in any way shape or form. The country is with the president on Afghanistan because this is the main fight, Iraq was a side issue that was always sought by certain factors (Wolfie) for their own agenda.

A real leader creates an atmosphere where his advisers can be honest and frank without fear. Bush surrounds himself with yes-men and cronies who tell him what he wants to hear or else.


This sounds like the Bush we all know and loath. Unable to accept views other than his own, unable to take criticism, unable to accept reality, utterly in denial.

[tejasdemo]

Who gives a ***. How many people are going to die in Iraq today ? I wonder what their priorities are ?

Go to hell Bush, Cheney, and the rest of you neocon fruitcakes

[neoconrcrazy]

Dan has become a husband and a father. I understand his decision to make his young family his first priority." bushit

Do you? You pile of texas chickenshitt?

What the thousands of others, already dead in Iraq - Americans and Iraqis?

Did you ever think of their priorities?

Rot in helll bushit.

[He has been with Mr. Bush for nearly 14 years, from Mr. Bush's first campaign as governor of Texas, through two races for the White House and more than six years of a presidency marked by costly wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and an ongoing battle against terrorism. ]

i'll bet he lands at goldman sachs.

[ioweign]

Dan Bartlett is out and Jack Kevorkian is in.
