Take a look at the shitter.
"Bush Adviser Is Seen as Force in Spending Impasse"
"Bush Adviser Is Seen as Force in Spending Impasse" by SHERYL GAY STOLBERG
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 — After a stint as Republican National Committee chairman and a lobbying career that made him a multimillionaire, Ed Gillespie is back in government as a street fighter and salesman for conservative ideas and the politician behind them — in this case, President Bush.
Once again, he is in the thick of a budget fight between the White House and Congress. But this time, he is driving the confrontation. Mr. Gillespie is trying to write a new narrative for Mr. Bush, one that casts him in the role of fiscal conservative.
Democrats have provided targets, by waiting until two months into the new fiscal year to finish their appropriations work. Mr. Bush has already vetoed Democratic measures on children’s health and Iraq war spending, and a water resources bill — all the while complaining lawmakers are wasting taxpayers’ money, and scolding them like errant schoolchildren who forgot to turn in their homework.
Like how Sheryl Gay sucks White House cock?
In 2004, as party chairman, Mr. Gillespie was nicknamed Mr. Bush’s “pit bull” for his relentless attacks on Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts.
Like that election mattered. Two Skull & Bonesers!
Mr. Gillespie rarely gives on-the-record interviews — he declined to talk for this article — and he is almost never seen on television. And careful listeners to Mr. Bush will note that the president paints “Congress,” and not “Democrats” as the villain — another Gillespie hallmark.
But then Bush will decry partisanship!
What a FUCKING ASSHOLE is Gillespie!!!!!!!!!!
In 2000, he was a member of the Gang of Six, a group of strategists for the Bush-Cheney campaign. That same year, he joined with Jack Quinn, a former White House counsel to Mr. Clinton, to found Quinn Gillespie & Associates, his lobbying firm. He earned a reported $4.75 million when he sold his share of the firm to join the White House, but he could easily pass through Washington’s revolving door yet again, earning even more after Mr. Bush leaves office.
Mr. Gillespie’s strategy is to “understand the public’s already conceived disposition,” and create a story line around it.
Sort of like 9/11 and the creator of cultural myths, huh?
Thanks to author Mike Whitney's research, we now know:
"In researching the Bush administration’s manipulation of public perceptions, I came across an interesting summary of the State Department’s Philip Zelikow, who was Executive Director on the 9-11 Commission, that greatest of all charades. According to Wikipedia:
"Prof. Zelikow’s area of academic expertise is the creation and maintenance of, in his words, 'public myths’ or 'public presumptions’ which he defines as 'beliefs (1) thought to be true ( although not necessarily known with certainty) and (2) shared in common within the relevant political community.’ In his academic work and elsewhere he has taken a special interest in what he has called 'searing’ or 'molding’ events (that) take on transcendent’ importance and therefore retain their power even as the experiencing generation passes from the scene….He has noted that 'a history’s narrative power is typically linked to how readers relate to the actions of individuals in the history; if readers cannot make the connection to their own lives, then a history may fail to engage them at all." ("Thinking about Political History" Miller center Report, winter 1999, p 5-7)
Isn’t that the same as saying there is neither history nor truth; that what is really important is the manipulation of epochal events so they serve the interests of society’s managers? Thus, it follows that if the government can create their own "galvanizing events", then they can write history any way they choose.
If that’s the case, then perhaps the entire war on terror is cut from whole cloth; a garish public relations maneuver devoid of meaning."
That strategy was on full display in the Rose Garden last week, as Mr. Bush tapped into another preconceived notion, that lawmakers are lazy. The president opened his remarks by tweaking Democrats on the 30-second pro forma sessions they held to prevent him from making recess appointments over the Thanksgiving Day holiday.
Mr. Bush: "If 30 seconds is a full day, no wonder Congress has got a lot of work to do.”
This fucking ignoramus calling THEM LAZY?
After he didn't even inquire about new info McConnell had on Iran?
It was positively Gillespie-esque."
That's when Ed released his load into Sheryl Gay's throat!!!!
You go, girl!
