No George, You know what is REALLY Despicable?!?!

[berni_mccoy]

Some might say that referring to General Petraus as one who "Betrayed Us" is a despicable act.

But you want to know what is truly despicable?

Making photo-ops out of 9/11. That's despicable.

Lying to Congress and the American people by falsifying intelligence to drag us into an illegal war so your Exxon buddies can rake in the profits off of increased oil prices and your Haliburton/Blackwater Boys can make BILLIONS off of taxpayer money while our soldiers go unprotected and digging through trash-piles for additional armor. That's despicable.

Or how about not facing the mother of a fallen soldier who came to your "ranch" in Texas while you were on Vacation. Now, that's really despicable.

Or not leaving vacation, playing the guitar, eating cake and fundraising while New Orleans sank under water and sewage and thousands of poor died from exposure because there were no National Guard available because they were in Iraq and you hired an incompetent good-ol' boy to head up FEMA. Despicable shame.

There's also the act of exposing, not only a CIA operative, but her entire undercover operation that was responsible for prevention of nuclear proliferation. You did this as an act of vengeance because her husband dared to contradict you and tell the Americans the truth about your lying us into a war with Iraq. That's not only Despicable, that's TREASON.

So, George, you see, when you have the nerve to call those who would speak the truth, "despicable", you should take a long hard look in the mirror, followed by a long hard look at the definition of the word. You'll find yourself somewhere along the way.

9. He Should Pick Out His Good Photos Now

Because they might serve to offset what, freed of the yokes of coercion and threat, history is going to do with his legacy. "Despicable" might be one of the LESS pungent assessments of his character, motives and behavior.

Excellent post, by the way-thank you!

34. Despicable is as despicable does

And despicable starts a war predicated on lies and then becomes a war profiteer reaping immoral profits on the blood sweat and tears of those he sent off to fight that war.

[connecticut yankee]

41. Of course --

calling him "General Betray Us" is despicable.

But it's perfectly fine to call Senator Clinton "Hiltery," or "Hildebeast" or "PIAPS."

It seems absolutely logical to me.

"not leaving vacation, half-heartedly PRETENDING to play the guitar"...

The guy can't even GOOF OFF right.
