Another Black Eye on the Bush Administration

Apparently during the ruckus following yesterday's shoe-lobbing event (event in the sense of "occurence", not in the sense of "Olympic competition," though we could consider the latter), a microphone was slammed into White House Press Secretary Dana Perino's face. My first alert on this was at buzzfeed:
A quick Google turned up this photo at Huffington Post, among several others, from a news conference this morning.
MSNBC has a tongue-in-cheek report that actually describes what happened (you're so hopelessly out of date, MSNBC. Don't tell people what actually happened- we need to know what she was wearing, and what various pundits think the long-term effects will be.), and it's about what I had guessed. They also report that Perino is referring to it as her "shoe-venir!" Ha, ha, ha! She's just so perky and cute!

Frankly, though, there's a pattern here. 1: Bush commits awesome mistake that 2: Pisses someone off, who 3: Commits poorly-advised violence, the effects of which 4: Fall entirely on unrelated innocent bystanders.

The difference here, of course, is that Perino is complicit with BushCo. nonsense and doubletalk. She is its chief spokesman. Sometimes, despite the machinations of Bush, Cheney and Rove, what goes around does come around.

Yes, she complicit and evil, but if she ever said I could do her, I'd book a seedy motel room and go crazy with her for 48 hours. T


Hang on, was that too much information?

Nah. I said the same thing about Palin. I could write up a list of a hundred 'druthers, but if I kept going long enough both of these two would eventually make the list. Hey, I'm male too...

Ah but for a few moments of pleasure. But could you respect yourselves in the morning? ;>)

That shiner really highlights her extremely expensive nosejob.

Demeur- no, I couldn't, but no, that wouldn't stop me.

Greg & Kris- Heh, heh... you said "nosejob." Heh, heh, heh...
