The Party of Personal Responsibility
Edited on Mon Feb-13-06 05:32 PM by Plaid Adder
She calls up and says, "Does it bother you at all that it's now suddenly the 78-year-old's fault for getting shot? I mean, there's no accounta-fucking-bility in this administration."

We were discussing this and I said, "You know, if you're holding a gun, and your finger is on the trigger, it's your fucking job to make sure you don't shoot someone with it!"

A statement with which you'd figure nobody could argue...yet now, of course, the 'party of personal responsibility' no longer accepts this proposition.

Can we have the real world back? I don't like it on this side of the looking glass.

C ya,

The Plaid Adder

1. Responsibility is a euphemism for Blame
And we all know that republicans don't accept any blame for anything. It's always someone else's fault.

So of course Dick isn't accepting responsibility.

They really are evil.

2. Even a simple, public, "Sorry, Whit," is beyond Cheney's capabilities.

3. It's disgusting, isn't it?
They know no depth to how low they will stoop to shrug off the blame for their wrongs.

Simply pathetic.
