Quote of the Day


“[George W. Bush] didn’t keep us safe or the people on those planes, those four planes, safe that day. He didn’t keep those safe, those men and women forced to choose between jumping from 100-story roof and being killed by the smoke and the fire. And he didn’t keep safe the hundreds of firefighters killed that day doing their courageous duty.” -- Chris "Tweety" Matthews, summoning some anger, unloading on Dumbya's brother John Ellis "J.E.B.!" Bush for the revisionist, nonsensical history that he's trying to peddle ("We were attacked & my brother kept us safe."). Most of the Republican-wired Beltway political media (and cowardly Dems) have been loath to bring up the warnings of an attack to Dumbya & Co. in the spring and summer of 2001, including the infamous "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S." presidential briefing memo of August 6, 2001. Here's hoping Tweety (and yes, "Rump" Trump) will continue to hammer away as long as J.E.B.! tries to sweep it under the rug, even if his media colleagues think it "impolite" to do so.
