So Many Republican Hypocrites, So Little Time
December 29, 2006

Wouldn't it be hypocrisy for the Secretary of Defense to protect the President of the United States from embarrassment for his grievous and deadly mistakes rather than to do what's best for America?

Yes it would, and so Robert M. Gates is our BuzzFlash GOP Hypocrite of the Week.

Gates, who conventional wisdom had pegged as Poppy Bush's man, has turned out to be worse than Rumsfeld. Rummy, as megalomaniacal as he was, was against increasing troop levels in Iraq.

2. I'm seriously asking, did anyone really believe that Gates was

going to straighten this mess out? Did anyone really believe that Baker's role in this mess was anything else but to give cover to Chimpy? Did anyone believe that Poopy was really going to be able to straighten out his meglomaniacal idiot son?

Seriously, I'm asking.

He knows where the bodies are buried because he helped put them there. And he slid in like grease on a griddle. Feh.
