Bill Bennett sticks his toe out of the woodwork
Just now watching Bennett on CNBC with Russert and he affirms that he doesn't have an addiction to gambling. But then he asserts that he gambled too much. Huh?

"The blood was in the water" and "they" came after him. Oh, brother. :crazy:

He looks entirely furtive, hardly credible and desperately needs a pie in the face. Who cares what he thinks about anything. :boring:

1. I love it
It's so great to see people like Bennett get what they deserve. What's that saying about a glass house? :evilgrin:

4. Yeah...
and now he's spinning the reason why we went into Iraq. It's because we were worried about a future development of WMDs.

What bothers me is that he'll go to the friendly venues and build his confidence. Makes me wonder if he's been asked to come back on the tv scene to help Bush. If so, that's scraping the bottom of the barrel. Like Bennett is going to tell us like it is. He needs to go back and find his party hat and forget this effort.

:party:

12. Whores
A man who can afford to gamble can afford whores too. In fact, gambling and whoring go together like bacon and eggs.

5. Didn't he have a machine delivered to his room
so he could gamble in his underwear? I think there's something wrong with that. . . .

6. Why can't he just go away
I could probably salvage an ounce of respect for he guy if he committed hari-kari or moved to some remote island and lived the rest of his life in shame.

But isn't it only a matter of time before he resumes his weighty postulations on the decline of morals in society?

Da Noiv!
