Hit 'em where it hurts--right in the gas tank

That's how you get Bush apologists to turn on the President. Tucker Carlson and Joe Scarborough admit Bush and Cheney are in the oil companies' pockets and bemoan the President's future on The Situation.

SCARBOROUGH: The rest of the country—I did, too. The rest of the country had already turned Reagan off. They‘ve turned George W. Bush off. And I don‘t think there‘s going to be a second act of this American political life.

I think that George Bush is going to have a very rough two years, and nobody is going to believe that he‘s going to—whether you‘re talking about alternative fuel sources or whether you‘re talking about price-gouging investigations, until they see CEOs of corporation doing the perp walks...

CARLSON: That‘s right.

SCARBOROUGH: ... they‘re just not going to believe he‘s sincere.

CARLSON: If he can lower my gas prices on his way out, I‘d be grateful.

SCARBOROUGH: That‘d be awesome.

  1. Yeh, Joe and Tucker, "that'd be awesome."

    Where the fuck were these two choads during the march to war?

    I'm sorry, but I hated Bush/Cheney before hating Bush/Cheney became cool, and there's nothing I despise more than hypocricial bandwagon-hopping, foppish, Richie Rich talking heads.

  2. "I hated Bush/Cheney before hating Bush/Cheney became cool"

    That would look pretty groovy on a bumpersticker, or a t shirt. You could make some scratch...
