- dealsdealer, on 10/10/2007, -4/+78".........professional Bush loyalist ........."
that's a title now ... - obliviousfool, on 10/10/2007, -1/+63Relax ...he worked for Frito-Lay. We'll get the terrorists addicted to Cool Ranch Doritos. Problem solved!
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -6/+63Just what this country needs - more Brownies... and in charge of *homeland security*, no less.
- deadbaby, on 10/10/2007, -2/+58It's almost like Bush is trying to cement his legacy as a complete hack job of a President.
- airwalkery2k, on 10/10/2007, -2/+41I hope one of my friends becomes an incompetent leader somewhere so I can reap the benefits of an easy, free job. The benefits are amazing--you deny all responsibility, they back you up until you decide to resign then reward you for your service, and you get all the vacation you want.
- brstilson, on 10/10/2007, -2/+36Honestly...did anyone really think Bush was going to make a GOOD choice here?
- zephris, on 10/10/2007, -3/+31God damn you Bush, no more bought "friends". I'm sick of this ***** and I'm sick of you. Can't wait for the day you're impeached and convicted for war crimes.
- chase001, on 10/10/2007, -1/+27Oh and he's the III. More of our Aristocratic elite running things.
- Dumbledorito, on 10/10/2007, -2/+23The difference is that you're hiring friends who might be qualitifed. If you'll actually read the article, this nominee's resume is severely lacking except in one respect: Bush was his roommate. Please, get a clue while there's still time.
- bmiller949, on 10/10/2007, -3/+23Clay Johnson? Was his nickname in High School... "Terra Cotta Dick"?
- Dumbledorito, on 10/10/2007, -0/+18Patton Oswalt was right. Former Bush supporters ARE like Creed fans.
"Yeah, yeah, we know, we thought the lead guitarist was cute, now shut up about it." - theNazz, on 10/10/2007, -2/+20Bush is a first class ***** up. Always has been, always will be. The only people who support Bush are his rich friends and complete idiots.
- jonnyeh, on 10/10/2007, -1/+16Bush has proven that he's a poor judge of abilities. I'm sure a random stranger could perform better than his idiot friends.
- Gir9000, on 10/10/2007, -2/+16Homeland security should be shutdown! its a department that enforces a Bush dictatorship.
- crestfall, on 10/10/2007, -3/+16Yeah.. Just shut up and let him continue destroying our country without complaint... like good little children.
- devjunkie, on 10/10/2007, -3/+15...and to think, you were all excited about Gonzales resigning only to find out someone worse will replace him.
What a terrible country we live in. - Dumbledorito, on 10/10/2007, -2/+13So if you're a loyal Bushie, you get perks? I wondered what was keeping all those bloggers from abandoning him.
- jstohler, on 10/10/2007, -3/+13Yep. Here we go again...
- knowyourrights, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11You forgot being set for life.
I wonder how Gonzo got into Harvard Law? - Bastian227, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8"Insanity: the belief that one can get different results by doing the same thing." -- Albert Einstein
- shmatt, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8which is a joke if you ask me, because he was grossly incompetent.
- InetRoadkill, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9Woot! More cronyism! Like we haven't had enough of that already.
- rhabd0mancer, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9I don't think Bush is a homosexual. I think he is a hedonist. He'd ***** anybody, male or female, and ingest any drug if it increased his dopamine levels.
- krnldmp, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7"Homeland Security" is the strictly commercial, fascist buzzword version of national security. As long as you have a goverment using such terminology as "Homeland Security" to replace what has always been known as the real thing, national security, you can safely bet you're getting less of that, and maybe the complete opposite.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -4/+10When are you Yanks going to wake up that the good old USofA is only a third world Banana Republic run by the religious right. You are definitely not a democracy.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -6/+12Sounds like Gonzales didn't sign on to the escaltion in the use of the new dictators powers.
You can bet whomever takes his place does. - obliviousfool, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Try a corporatocracy.
- Havs, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8I think he's from Texas. Down there they'd call him Clay Junior Junior, doesn't sound so aristocratic the Texan way does it?
- ViciousDotOrg, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Yeah but then they'll have Dorito breath. And I don't know what's worse, that or guns.
- krnldmp, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6I just call them professional perjurers.
- pixelate, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7"No counterterrorism experience, no intelligence experience, no law enforcement experience, no legal experience, no military experience unless you count his discussions about Vietnam with Mr. Bush while at Yale [which was only regarding how to avoid being drafted]" -Keith Olbermann last night.
I'm sure he'd do a heckuva job. - crapmatic, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5How about C - select someone with experience and competence for the position, and someone you know you trust and will work with you.
- mikedoth, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7It's not what you know... it's who you know. Sad.
- knowyourrights, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4You need to pursue the 'I will not comply, period!' digg submission. For evil to prevail, all it takes is for good people to do nothing - Albert Einstein.
As much as it's looked down upon, one of the greatest things I love about the US is our right to bitch, so to speak.
We lose that, we lose everything. - growler1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I suppose it's some small consolation that the "department" of "homeland security" is pretty ineffectual to begin with. But still, our intrepid leader continues his campaign of un-inspiration.
- noahhoward, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4That explains Saddam's Cheeto addiction.
- JFitzpatrick, on 10/10/2007, -4/+8So I read the title as: "Bush plans to install high school friendly clay johnson at DHS" ... OR "Bush is going to install a giant clay penis at local highschool." To which I thought "Well it isn't like he has to worry about his ratings."
- toddcat, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4"almost"?
- malkiholic, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Is he a real Texan or a Connecticut Texan like Bush?
- sdonahoe, on 10/10/2007, -5/+9Why has no one commented on the discrepancy between the title and the description? Andover is not a mere "high school" any more than Eton is. What I want to know was whether this guy was on the cheerleading squad with Dubya or not. And who was the top and who was the bottom? Inquiring minds want to know. Not that you'd ever see a picture in the National Enquirer of a certain young Mr. Bush and a certain Mr. Ashe. The anthrax attacks took care of that...or so some say.
- ManOfVirtues, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4If we cant impeach bush, can we at least take away his power to appoint people, So far hes batting 0 - 6
- whisperedlie, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4god damn it, now i want ranch doritos (but when do I not?)
- thcobbs, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I agree... he should have stepped down as soon as it was discovered he lied under oath. If I had may way, I would have him put in jail....
The AG should NEVER perjure himself. And if he does, he should get the stiffest penalties possible. The AG is OUR lawyer, not the Presidents. - tjolson, on 10/10/2007, -3/+6Michael Chertoff - "The man with the prophetic gut" as Keith Olbermann calls him. LOL
- tHePeOPle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3One word: Brownie.
- Ianki, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3So, even fox news is getting sick of bush cronyism now. last night on O'Reilly, they did a whole segment condemning it, and listing at least 12 people who in the administration who don't deserve their job and have zero experience... My jaw was on the floor.
- toddcat, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Pretty much ANYONE would be an improvement. Just call up a guy in a random phone book.....and if he can form a sentence it probably means he at least isn't calculating the political expedience of everything. So yeah, I'd take ABSO-*****'-LUTELY ANYONE.
- TechCoder, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3"no talent ass clowns"
- impissed, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3No more choking on snack food!
- Newlow, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Dick will take care of him. I mean they probably now have billions of dollars stored in off-shore accounts from all the money halliburton and other private contractors plundered from the US taxpayers.
