Guess who's being rumored to be the next UN ambassador?

[napi21]

Rick Santorum! I just heard this on the Lynn Cullen Show! All I could do was gasp!!!!

[Poiuyt]

1. Bush is physically incapable of making a good nomination

[napi21]

4. Yeea, but damn! Can't he at least try for someone with a LITTLE

diplomatic ability???????

[dmosh42]

25. Maybe Mark Foley?

Give the world a little 'taste' of a real conservative!

[Richard Steele]

2. No rock too slimy for B*shCabal™ to look under! nm

[KingFlorez]

3. You know he was going to find a job for at least one defeated Republican

[SharonAnn]

8. In 2000 he put Spencer Abrams as Sec'y of Energy and Ashcroft as

Attorney General. I kept waiting for something for Slade Gordan (Washington) but I guess he made more money as a lobbyist.

That's when I realized that for Republicans, being defeated means you're not out of a job.

[Lusted4]

14. Spencer Abraham, What a jellyfish that looser was. n/t

[Lusted4]

5. It's like hitting yourself in the head with a hammer over and over and

over and over and over again.
They just can't appoint a democrat or even a moderate republican no matter how right they are for the job.

[Skidmore]

6. Who on this board called that guy

lower than fish poo during the campaign? Told ya'll he'd go for scum at the bottom.

[displacedtexan]

7. What? Harriet Miers isn't available?

[Nickster]

9. I was gonna say Negroponte! But this is sooooo much better. Bwahahaaa!

My God, we are going to have so much clean up work picking up for this idiot.

[Kellyiswise]

10. Obviously, the Bush administration does not really care about what is best for America.

Bush needs to be impeached for the good of the nation and the world.

[NNN0LHI]

11. I heard it was going to be JD Hayworth

Just kidding.

Though you never know with this nut running the country.

Don

[ChairmanAgnostic]

12. Why not Tony Blair? As US rep to UN? I hear he needs a job.

Hugo Chavez?
Kim Il Jung?

Hey, how about Harriet Myers or Karen Hughes?

Frist, Santorum, George Allen, Alan Keyes, any of them would be almost as bad as Bolton, but not quite. Frist is too distracted. Santorum is too dumb. Allan is licking his wounds and ego. Alan Keyes - now, there's a selection.

[Kelly Rupert]

17. Blair will still be an MP, won't he?

or is resigning from that, too?

[spanone]

13. God, talk about out of his league. Prick Santorum could be the only person worse than Bolton.

[napi21]

16. I was thinking that too! Isn't he really worse than Bolton?

I can just see him trying to convert the whole UN to Catholicism.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

19. Alan Keyes, folks. How quickly you forget.

Far, far worse.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

39. Bingo! And the moment anybody says "eww," they'll scream "RACIST!!!" apopletically.

Just perfect.

[YOY]

35. Please don't insult the Catholics here

You mean RW OPUS DEI Catholicism.

[napi21]

42. Oh, I didn't mean to insult catholics. I am one myself. It's just that

Ricky isIMO a fake! And a very pushy fake too!

[H2O Man]

15. Please tell me

that you are joking. Please.

[napi21]

18. I said it is a rumor, so I don't know how accurate it is, but Lynn's

producer broke in on her conversation to tell her. He mentioned where he found the imfo, but I was so shocked, I didn't hear what he said.

[H2O Man]

22. It's hard to think of

a poorer choice. I'm surprised that the administration doesn't at least pretend to be making a more progressive pick.

[Nickster]

26. Could just be a political "payoff" for all his hard work for the Dubya Admin,

bounce his name out there so he feels loved by the folks that helped get him kicked out of office and maybe give him some credibility when he tries to run for another office.

[H2O Man]

27. You're right.

They recycle these people. And it's part of the payment for loyalty to their party cell.

[doublethink]

32. Santorum is the one that sponsored all that Iran Regime Change legislation .....

when he had a job before this last election. Well this wouldn't surprise me a bit, not sure who I distrusted more on that issue back then, him or Bolton. And the beat goes on ...... peace.

[EFerrari]

33. LOL!

:rofl:

[Norquist Nemesis]

20. Every de-throned GOP pol is probably campaigning for the spot

It's tough to get knocked out of the ivory tower by the voters. Jim Talent, George Allen and Mike DeWine are probably campaigning for the spot also.

Anyone seen Michael Steele lately?
:rofl:

[LiberalFighter]

21. If he is the nominee he will probably be confirmed

It is an unwritten rule that someone from your group is confirmed unless there is something really serious.

[filer]

23. Is Michael Brown available?

I bet he could do a heck of a job.

[Judi Lynn]

45. Ha! I wondered about him, too. He WOULD do a heck of a job.

[malaise]

24. He won't make it past the Dems

Fugg him.

[Ganja Ninja]

28. Can't these people go out and find regular jobs?

Why must this country be subjected to the recycling of these annoying buffoons? For crying out loud his own constituency just rejected him in overwhelming numbers. Now he's supposed to represent the whole country to the world?
:wtf:

[xultar]

29. That is great! At least it isn't Lieberman. I hope he nominates Scrotum.

[warrens]

30. Unbelievable

I'd make that guy go through a psychiatric screening, like Bolton should have. They're both nuts.

[Cass]

31. OMG.

That is seriously screwed up. Leave it to the Decider to make a decision like this. Gawd help us if there is any truth to this rumor.

[solara]

34. Well, Rumsfeld needs a job, too, doesn't he?

Recycle Rumsfeld now!

:evilgrin:

[lonestarnot]

36. Puke! Wouldn't he have the same problem as Bolten? Confirmation?

[cynatnite]

37. Damn, and I just ate, too

:puke:

[LeftishBrit]

38. I was about to guess Rummy! Or Ollie North. Santorum would be awful too, though...

I bet Tony Blair would love the job; though I think he'd REALLY like to replace Condi.

[Nickster]

44. YES!!! Ollie North!!!! I was twisting my brain trying to figure out how'd they get yet

another Iran-Contra criminal back into service. The ambassador to the UN gig would totally do that!

[lectrobyte]

40. His Frothiness at the U.N.? It's still a step up from Bolton, I guess.

[lies and propaganda]

52. BIG LOL!!!!

awesome!

[Ian David]

41. Santorum would fold like an origami swan

The nomination process will be absolutely withering.

And if he's given a recess appointment, Kofi Anan will wipe his ass with the little prick.

[Blaze Diem]

43. I think Bush will pick Joe Liebermaniac

bushslut

[90-percent]

46. my guesses

First Choice:

Don Rumsfeld

Second Choice:

Jeff Gannon


You heard it here first. Actually, somebody before me already took Rummy, but thsi is the first Gannon nomination.

-85% jimmy

[yellowdogmi]

47. I thought you were going to say Don Rumsfield.

My heart stopped as my brain exploded. I just could not wrap my mind around it. ewwwww.

[yellowdogmi]

48. self delete dupe

[AngryOldDem]

49. No. Way.

Please tell me this is a joke.

[Blackhatjack]

50. Just imagine someone almost as bad as Bolton --- Santorum!! n/t

[lies and propaganda]

51. Tell me youre kidding!

[npincus]

53. this is a joke, right?
