Who the FUCK is this asshat Sweeney from NY?

[Stinky The Clown]

He's on with the Fat Foghorn (Rita Cosby) who's just her usual irrelevent breathless self discussing totally irrelevent issues.

So he's saying that (incredibly self-important) *he* told idiot son to appoint ol' Rudy as some sort of disaster czar. Sez that since Riley in AL and (that motherfucker) Barbour in MS have done a bang up job, but Blanco hasn't, that Rudy oughtta just go in, roll up his sleeves and 'git 'er done'.

Hey Sweeney, you stupid, partisan, bullshitting, fuckwad ... go the fuck home and shut the fuck up.

....... stupid motherfucker ........

[JDPriestly]

1. Bush's delay in helping NO was intended to make Blanco look

bad. I have suspected that all along. If Giuliano or some other Republican is appointed to handle the situation in Louisiana, I will be certain of it. Bush is 100% politics and 0% humanity. What a jerk!!!

[Alizaryn]

2. Sweeney is an arse.

[autorank]

3. Hey buddy, he is an asshat but good news. I'm watching Scarborough

on rerun. He's talking about his Republican friends coming over from FL with supplies, looking around, and expressing their profound sense of betrayal regarding Bush, wished they'd never voted for him. Fuck! This is Scarborough. And the Faux revolution, Gerald and Smith, slapping around Hannity and O'Liely.

These politicians are insulated people. Everyone kisses their asses, they kiss some moneybag ass, and it all works out. Well, they're getting the message, we're fed up with their bull shit!

Let 'em bloviate. The more the better. People see what the deal is. The troops hit the ground in NOLA lead by a capable General. Kaput, it's calm. Well that General and troops would have gladly headed in three days ago and done the very same job (how angry they must be!).

It's all about neglect and indifference. It's all about racism.

Mark my word, the Louisiana politicians will fix it so that those people dispersed across Texas never vote again in a Louisiana election.

On edit: And they'll fix it so they don't vote in Texas elections either. They are truly people without a country. While race is a big part of this one, we're all at risk. They hate us.

8. Yeah I was watchin' the same thing ....did you also notice that

good old 'Regular Joe', while was saying how there were fuck-ups, he seemed to me to be slamming Blanco and Nagin while praising Barbour and Riley.

Subtle, but clear.

[Steely_Dan]

4. LOLOLOL

SORRY...THE TERM "ASSHAT" SIMPLY SLAYS ME.

5. Sweeney is the scumbag who gave the okay to the bogus FL riot in 2000

The Battle of Miami

On Nov. 22, 2000, after learning that the Miami canvassing board was starting an examination of 10,750 disputed ballots that had previously not been counted, Rep. John Sweeney, a New York Republican, called on Republican troops to “shut it down,” according to Down and Dirty. Brendan Quinn, executive director of the New York GOP, told about two dozen Republican operatives to storm the room on the 19th floor where the canvassing board was meeting, Tapper reported.

“Emotional and angry, they immediately make their way outside the larger room in which the tabulating room is contained,” Tapper wrote. “The mass of ‘angry voters’ on the 19th floor swells to maybe 80 people,” including many of the Republican activists from outside Florida.

News cameras captured the chaotic scene outside the canvassing board's offices. The protesters shouted slogans and banged on the doors and walls. The unruly protest prevented official observers and members of the press from reaching the room. Miami-Dade county spokesman Mayco Villafana was pushed and shoved. Security officials feared the confrontation was spinning out of control.

The canvassing board suddenly reversed its decision and canceled the recount. “Until the demonstration stops, nobody can do anything,” said David Leahy, Miami’s supervisor of elections, although the canvassing board members would later insist that they were not intimidated into stopping the recount.

Miami 'Riot' Squad: Where Are They Now?

By Al Kamen
Monday, January 24, 2005; Page A13



Some of those pictured have gone on to other things, including stints at the White House. For example, Matt Schlapp, No. 6, a former House aide and then a Bush campaign aide, has risen to be White House political director. Garry Malphrus, No. 2 in the photo, a former staff director of the Senate Judiciary subcommittee on criminal justice, is now deputy director of the White House Domestic Policy Council. And Rory Cooper, No. 3, who was at the National Republican Congressional Committee, later worked at the White House Homeland Security Council and was seen last week working for the Presidential Inaugural Committee.

Here's what some of the others went on to do:

No. 1. Tom Pyle, who had worked for Rep. Tom DeLay (R-Tex.), went private sector a few months later, getting a job as director of federal affairs for Koch Industries.

No. 7. Roger Morse, another House aide, moved on to the law and lobbying firm Preston Gates Ellis & Rouvelas Meeds. "I was also privileged to lead a team of Republicans to Florida to help in the recount fight," he told a legal trade magazine in a 2003 interview.

No. 8. Duane Gibson, an aide on the House Resources Committee, was a solo lobbyist and formerly with the Greenberg Traurig lobby operation. He is now with the Livingston Group as a consultant.

No. 9. Chuck Royal was and still is a legislative assistant to Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), a former House member.

No. 10. Layna McConkey Peltier, who had been a Senate and House aide and was at Steelman Health Strategies during the effort, is now at Capital Health Group.

(We couldn't find No. 4, Kevin Smith, a former GOP House aide who later worked with Voter.com, or No. 5, Steven Brophy, a former GOP Senate aide and then at consulting firm KPMG. If you know what they are doing these days, please e-mail [e-mail] we can update our records.)

Sources say the "rioters" proudly note their participation on résumés and in interviews. But while the original hardy band of demonstrators numbered barely a couple of dozen, the numbers apparently have grown with the legend.

[MissMarple]

6. Alabama and Mississippi? Oh, please. Riley and Barbour are in over their

heads....they have heads, don't they?

[Stinky The Clown]

9. Riley and Barbour's heads .......

Riley's looks like it fits absolutely perfectly in a conical white hood ...... and Barbour looks like a bourbon swilling, golf playing, country-club-going, overeating, Lincoln-driving, jowly cheeked, marble-mouthed, gasbag Republican - the prototypical fat-cat Republican.

[applegrove]

7. The difference with Rudy was that when he asked for help - it came

that day.

P.S. Gander Newfoundland .. population 10,000 put up the people from at least 42 America Bound Jumbo Jets in the night & days after 9/11. They took people into their homes. And housed them in schools. Why can't people do that for New Orleans families? If Gander could do it with only 10,000 residents and 4,000 refugess - why can't the towns and cities do it in one night, or two, or even three. Until more permanent accommodations are found?
