Huffington Post: “Bond Continues Misleading Constituents About Iraq”

If Missouri really does pride itself on being “the show-me state,” you have to wonder how long it’s going to be before Missourians demand that Senator Kit Bond (R-MO) show them the truth.

Bond, who has been one of George W. Bush’s most ardent rubber-stampers ever since the Supreme Court handed Bush the presidency, has shown repeatedly that he’s not beyond bending or breaking the truth for any White House cause. After all, it was just last month that Bond went public with glowing and demonstrably false statements about how well the troops surge is going in Iraq. It seems like his staff must hope they can distribute disingenuous press releases to the Missouri media and get some unchecked local ink without any meddling bloggers getting in the way.

    What is this guy? I mean, besides so full of manure that if he tips his head his boots will be ruined?

    I don’t know this fellow, but someone ought to do a little growing up someday. The 2000 election is over. And I am curious about this guy’s deep knowledge of the results of the Iraqi troop surge. Maybe he counted bodies or something. Perhaps Geiger is a counter. Otherwise, he’s just a vat of waste material with nothing significant to contribute to the discussion.
