Throwing dirt in the umpire's face

[SpiralHawk]

During his press conference yesterday that's what Fitzgerald accused the BushCo administration of doing, using a vivid baseball metaphor to get his point across.

Why did BushCo -- via the perjury of Scooter and others, and scads of Federally Sanctioned-and-Funded Propaganda -- throw dirt in the umpires' faces?

BushCo did it so that neither the umpires nor the citizens of the United States of America could easily understand that they - BushCo - had formulated a MASSIVE PACK OF LIES to get us into an Profit-Making Republican Oil War.

Halliburton and Blackwater and Exxon and all the other BushCo Oil & Munitions Cronies know it well. They are counting their share of the LOOT now.

It is a stinking, rotten low-down amoral play to throw dirt in the umpire's face -- and then to spit in it while the dirt blinds.

But now thanks to Fitzie all of us (the Collective Umpires and Citizens of the United States) will get to watch the REPLAY.

Roll the tape.

1. And why does the owner of team Bushco

state that he is sorry about the indictments, but remain silent on the charge that his player 'threw dirt in the umpire's face'. Why is this christian owner completely silent re his player violating the laws of the game?

2. Because he is condoning the cover-up

Like Brownie, Libby did a heck of a job.
