Goes to show, you need to be careful of who takes you to the dance.

1. Makes you wonder who he's really pissed at...

His far-right bretheren who squealed until they got their way, or the Democrats for pulling one over on him.

[stopbush]

3. He hasn't yet figured out that the Dems pulled one over on him.

And he may never figure it out.

2. He just gave them a BJ

"Nobody rides for free"

4. Suppose the nomination was just a ruse

12. Red meat baby. Bush's base thrives on it. And he just gave it to them n/t

[Fridays Child]

6. "you need to be careful of who takes you to the dance"

8. Variation of "Dance with the one that brung ya" ?

I hear that in Texas every once in a while.

[Lisa]

13. I like it too!

Sort of more cautionary than "dance with the one that brung you".

Since I am usually not brung at all, I need something that reflects my own situation (such as my willingness to say "no" to potential cronies a lot more than Dubya does).

[Neocondriac]
