Bush's visit thrills local GOP

New Milford developer Tom Pilla and Councilman Bob Guendelsberger were among the more than 450 area residents who spent much of last Friday at Henry and Nancy Kissinger's estate in Kent.

Bush: Henry who?
Aide: Henry Kissinger, Sir’

Bush: Will the Governor of Connecticut be there?

Bush: Jodi….is that a man or a woman?
Aide: She is a woman, Sir.

Bush: Darn, she must be a democrat
Aide: No, Sir, she is a Republican.

Bush: How will I recognize her?
Aide: She is a bit frumpy, if you know what I mean.

Bush: Aw come on, all Republican woman are frumpy…that is why they are Republicans
Aide: She will probably be wearing several scarves and a smock, sir.

Bush: Will that goofy-looking Danny Callepelo be there?
Aide: That would be David Cappiello, Sir, yes.

Bush: Did you bring the YouTube video with you?
Aide: Yes, Sir, just like you requested.

Bush: This is going to be fun…..wake me when we get there.
Aide: We are there, Sir.

Bravo to the young patriots who went to Kent, CT last Friday to "welcome" Mr. Mission Accomplished,

aka the "Liar in Chief" George Bush.

And shame on those appeasers, enablers and sympathizers, however well meaning, who welcomed
Mr Bush at Dr Kissinger's house.

History will judge you and us.

Appalling article...appalling news.
The tone of this article is an exercise in sycophancy. I'm amazed it even ran in the Spectrum. Some editor somewhere misplaced the blue pencil.

We have people in town government who constantly complain their taxes are too high and who slash and burn the town budget repeatedly - pleading poverty - but they have $10,000 to spare for the vainglory of a photograph with a man who disgraces the office of the presidency with his smug lies and provincial and myopic views.

The man burned God knows how many gallons of jet fuel to fly on the taxpayer's dime into Hartford where he talked briefly with schoolchildren about malaria and then choppered his way to Kent for the REAL event: to be stood up like some sort of prop and have his picture taken with a pack of fawning drooling right-wingers.

These photos will decorate the office walls and living room coffee tables of the participants, even as they conspire for new ways of paring the town budget to the point at which it barely functions at all.
