Fast hackery bits:

Robert Novak: Warren Buffet is a hypocrite and "should be ashamed of himself by putting out that phony message" - the one that said he thinks repealing the estate tax is wrong and only benefits the super-rich.

Bush hack Michael O'Hanlon was last seen shilling for the continuing occupation of Iraq in the New York Times. Now, in that same newspaper, he is calling for a pre-emptive strike... on Pakistan!

Outgoing Homeland Security Advisor Frances Townsend: Al-Qaeda will attack our 2008 elections!

Disgraced former Rep. Tom DeLay thinks that the GOP needs to grow a backbone. How would he contribute? By "bitch-slap[ping] Paul Krugman." Apparently, violence shows courage...

Ari Fleischer's group Freedom's Watch is planning on actively selling Americans on the necessity of a war with Iran.

FOX News hack John Gibson: "[W]hoever outed Valerie Plame should get a medal, and, if it was Karl Rove, I'd pin it on him myself!"

Speaking of Lucifer, Karl Rove has claimed that the White House "opposed" the politicization of the initial Iraq war vote - prior to the 2002 mid-term elections. Unfortunately for Rove, the Dems were against holding the vote prior to the mid-terms also, and begged the White House to wait. The White House reply? "We just have to do this now."

A Scripps Howard/Ohio University poll shows that 62% of Americans feel that Bush ignored the pre-9/11 warnings of an imminent terrorist attack. Bush's friends over at the New York Post equated these beliefs with other "conspiracy theories" regarding the Kennedy assassination, UFO's, and the oil companies' manipulation of gas prices, declaring a majority of Americans "idiots" for believing something that the Post themselves reported!!! Michelle Malkin, professional GOP media whore, declares America "Tinfoil Hat Nation" in response to this poll.

Family Security Matters - whose "Top Ten Most Dangerous Organizations in America" list we highlighted a few weeks back - now claims that it is "multiculturalism" that exposes us to terrorism. Because we let Muslims in, we're going to get attacked... sometime... eventually... they'll get us... you'll see. Who are the moonbats, anyway?

Dick Cheney, a.k.a. Satan, says the government should not curb predatory lending practices because the impending recession we are heading towards shows that "the markets... are working."

Finally, Bush defends brutal rule in Saudi Arabia (he doesn't condemn the sentence of prison and lashing for a woman who was gang-raped by seven men; the sentence was handed down due to the victim's being "an adulteress who invited the attack because at the time she was partially dressed in a parked car with her lover") and Pakistan (current military dictator Musharraf has not "crossed the line," even though he has instituted a brutal shutdown of democracy and freedom in the country).
