BURN!

[Lasher]

Morning Joe this morning included Michael Steele on the panel. Present by a remote hookup was Axelrod.

Steele: How much time do you intend to spend focusing on George Bush at your convention? In other words, do you intend to keep blaming him for the country's problems.

Axelrod: I don't think our convention will spend any more time focusing on Bush than your convention did.

BURN!

I almost fell off my chair.

Axelrod then added that they really could not help but mention Bush since all Ryan and Romney were offering were the same policies as Bush had.

3. OH, SNAP!

They don't seem to understand that our attention spans aren't THAT short -- we've been down this road with their now-classic tactic of trying to turn strengths into weakness and weaknesses into strengths.

Bush should not be blamed for Obama's problems, but the solution is restoration of the Bush policies that caused the problems? Yeah, right...

9. There's also their knack for demanding we come up with someone/else to blame for problems bush

created. It's the "aren't you done blaming him?" meme.

Well, the answer is NO. bush should get the blame for the problems he caused that are still impacting the country.

16. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Wofowitcz et. al. should be renditioned to the Hague

and put on trial, and if justice prevails - hanged.

7. Awww shit!

Apparently Steele couldn't criticize anything Obama had done, so he tried to criticize Obama for something he might do.

11. PROPS! To Axe!

The gopropaganda machine so wants bush not to take responsiblity for his fuckups.

"About as much time as you did"!! What a legacy bushbot.

"Axelrod then added that they really could not help but mention Bush since all Ryan and Romney were offering were the same policies as Bush had."

FACTUAL ZINGER!

12. Where The Hell Was Axelrod in 2000?

Why wasn't he on the Gore team?

13. Michael Steele is another used tool for the GOP who can't

or won't live in Reality that his party does not like him. Same goes for the GOP gays and GOP women. The GOP only pretend to care about you as long as you spout their talking points.

18. Conservatoids won't go near Steele, he only appears on MSNBC, he's a grifter.

14. I'm still grinning from ear to ear. I doubt anyone will top that one for a while. n/t

[Stryder]

15. And that my friends is how it's done.

But really,fast ball,center plate.
How did Steele not taste his toe jam on that one?
Don't bother answering that.

20. I've grown to really like Axelrod -- Master of Snark.
