"As someone in Washington once said - the buck stops here"
wow, "Someone?" Thanks denny. So the buck has stopped on the speaker of the house's desk. And "we" have taken responsibility.

Once again I invite a lurker to explain to the world what "taking responsibility" means to a "conservative." Will one be held accountable? Will there be anyone punished for their actions? Or is this just more hot air from a republican liar? That's what I thought.

4. No lurker... but I call it lip service
The buck stops here. I'm responsible. Now everyone go back to what they were doing. It's over. Nothing to see here. Move along.






I've taken responsibility! What more do you want? Sheesh!

5. "Taking responsibility" to a Repuke means "explaining how the Clenis..."
"...is ultimately to blame."

10. He knew damn well it was Truman
But since Truman was a mamber of the 'Democrat' party, he wasn't worthy of a mention.
