Congressional fellatio ...

I caught pieces of the hearing yesterday in between running dad-in-law around to get his shit squared away. Seemed like a gang blowjob to me. The Rude One musta thought so too:

Oh, yes, what wondrous fellatio is taking place on Capitol Hill right now where sainted General Petraeus is before the Senate Armed Services Committee for his hearing on "How I Haz Not Fucked Up Iraq." Yes, there's a chance Democrats may act like an opposition party and eviscerate the Bush administration, and the Rude Pundit'll deal with that tomorrow.

Instead, let's talk about the inevitable, that Petraeus will stand before the Republicans on the committee, unzip his fly, present his cock, and say, "Who's a-gonna suck it first?"

...

And that's the tame stuff. I heard some talking head on the teevee yesterday say "well, they can't grill Petreaus the way they would a 'political appointee'." Um, when have the Rethugs in Congress (Chuck Hagel excepted) done anything other than blow the Chimps 'appointees' when they testified before committee? Please ...

And by the way, Petraeus is a politcal appointee. All the others before him who actually tried to tell the truth were cashiered or forced to 'resign'.

Off to work ... for the first time in 2 1/2 weeks ... wonder if I remember how to fix a car? Heh ...
