McDermott accuses Bush of plotting to be Emperor

I thought it was touching to see the tiny AIDS ribbon on his vest.

I thought it was his Young Pioneers scarf.

If Dubya is going to become Emperor, does he get to dress in cool duds, like this?

If he does, I wonder if there are any openings for Deputy Flunkeys, Sinister Henchmen, or Loyal Hangers-On?
I wonder what the pay scale is in an Empire?
Will it help me meet chicks?

Let's ask Emperor-Candidate Bob.

[Destructor]

Better listen to him. After all he is a great war hero! /sarcasm

[Orual]

Bush will slyly dress in his Emperor's new clothes so as to confuse and confound his opponents.

[FreeAtlanta]

bleating press, "Rep. Jim McDermott, how do you know that Bush is planning to be emperor?"

Rep. Jim McDermott, "because that is exactly what I would do, if I was president....ooops, I take that back, what I meant was..."

[VOA]

McDermott was bad enough when I was growing up in WA. But this stuff is positively insane.

Hey, he's a psychiatrist. What else would we expect?
(When I heard him frothing that the ONLY reason Dubya wants to go after
Sadaam is Oil on The Hugh Hewitt Show two weeks ago...I knew this guy was a wingnut, at best.)

Democrats "feel" they can read minds. It's sooooooo much easier to condemn conservatives if you don't have to bother with facts. How would the media judge us if we said McDermott wants to be President of Iraq and he takes money from Saddam? When asked for proof we explain how reading minds is in fashion and we want on the bandwagon.

Reporters would blow us off, but they print this garbage when it drops from liberal mouths. Standards guys. Check your facts, not your "feelings".

U.S. Rep. Jim McDermott broadened his attack on George W. Bush's war plans yesterday, saying the president is threatening military action in Iraq as part of a plot to crown himself emperor of America.

A hearty bump. McDermott is a TRAITOR in the fullest sense of the word.

I hope there's a serious purge when all this is over.

NO WONDER THE DEMS ARE IN PANIC MODE!

LOL! The 'pubs have a new poster boy for the October campaign: McDummit the Seditious Idiot

You are so right, the dims are divided, running scared, and fighting amongst themselves. Funny, when GW said he was going to make this happen, I thought he was only talking about the terrorists! :O)

[Richard Axtell]

Toricelli was shoved out of the race by the bosses for jeopardizing the Democrat Party's hold on the Senate. It will take a while, but they will eventually realize that McDermott and the ultra leftist pacifist wing of their party are doing more devastating and longer lasting damage to their party than wise-guy Toricelli could ever do in ten lifetimes. This is the most encouraging and interesting development I've seen in this election year race so far. Keep up the bone headed rhetoric, Mr. McDermott!

Oh, there is a chance things might change again before the election. Heck ... Lautenberg might miraculously become 30 years younger and recover from his profound senile dementia, Harkin might well be totally exonerated in the Watergate like scandal that he planned, caused, is currently embroiled in. Wellstone might suddenly be injected with testosterone and other "anti weaseling" drugs and hormones and improve his chances, etc., etc. etc. But, ...just don't count on it.

I say... "go McDermott!"... into oblivion, obscurity, and political extinction... where you and your Democrat, self deluding, self marginalizing, lunatic, radical, leftist, TRAITOROUS cohorts belong!

I used to go to my Cub Scout Pak meetings at Jeffereson Park. These days, it is about ground zero for the "racially" diverse south Seattle. Mostly welfare recipeints that see thir mnthly checks dwindling in the event of a war. Not overly surprising though.

Sounds like Jihim bin Dermott needs his meds upped.

I am disappointed that I only have 28 signatures on my petition nominating myself as Emperor of the Terran Solar System. Extremely disappointed.

It's time to try something different.

You will click on this link, you will sign your name. You will be grateful to live under the beneficent power of Bob.

[MWS]

Must...sign...petition....MUST...make...Bob...emperor...
