The Iraq Summit Is Now Termed "A Courtesy Call" by the WH!
omg, can this get any more embarrassing for bushco?? A State Dept. spokesman is on wolfie's show claiming the meet up with bush and al-Maliki tonight was nothing more than a "courtesy call" and means nothing that it was "postponed". Any bets on whether maliki shows up tomorrow?

1. And they're still denying Cheney was "summoned" by the Saudis
"Who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?"

2. So we don't have phones in the WH anymore?
Bush needs to fuel up AF1 with our tax dollars for a social call? Makes Clinton's 250 dollar haircut a little less controversial no?

3. We're in deep shit
In 6 years Bush has turned us from the leading superpower, into a rogue state that is to be shunned and excluded.

5. Bush and his handlers have had a lot of success smearing
people and then expecting great things from them, especially forgiveness, or if not forgiveness, silence. Look at McCain.

6. 'courtesy call?'
They were billing it as a major event. That's some damage control right there.

8. Well they usually do just about nothing anyway so...
Another day at the office. Now they can do what they do best, speculate, instead of actually having to report.
