Tuesday, January 06, 2009

The Washington Post has a report today about outgoing Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne, who spent $235,000 in taxpayer funds to renovate his office bathroom a few months ago. The upgrades include a new shower, refrigerator and freezer and monogrammed towels, department officials said.

An unfortunate but necessary expense given the amount of shit we've been producing the last eight years.
~Bush & Co.

Complete with commemorative BO urinal cakes!

Every damn politician sucks! This story is just another in a long line to make Bush look bad. No story on the waste that Nancy P has in her big ass airplane that she fly's all over, cause that would make the Dems look bad. They all suck, they all overspend, and they all are power hungry. If you think different, I have some stuff to sell you and I swear I don't want to make a profit. I want to loose money to make you feel good!

The FAA spent over $100,000.00 on the ladies bathroom and $35,000.00 on the mens in one facility.

In my office, all the ladies bathrooms have couches in them. WTH? Who wants to sit on a couch in a bathroom. Get in, get done, and get out as fast as you can!

Poor little Rtard deflectors......can't seem to keep up these days.

Can you say PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA???? Can you say NO MORE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTS EVER?????

Good, I thought you could!!!!!!

Now go play in traffic like nice little morons.

Can you say NO MORE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTS EVER?????

Are you planning on croaking in the next 4 years?

Wow...so he spent what the average citizen spends on a WHOLE FREAKIN HOUSE!
How about a remodel on something for our wounded vets!

DC is a huge blackhole of stupidity and waste.
We need to band together ...yeah left and right...to ride these revolving door career pols and gov appointees outa town!
Either that or better over site of STUPID wasteful expenditures.


There is so much of this crap going on at both the fed and state level.Yet each year they tout the need to raise taxes . Keep sending them money...they will find a way to waste it.

Now that is funny! One of the girls was talking about it, and I said WTH? She said yea all of them have a couch. Funny thought, but very very sick one.

Must be, but why??? I just don't understand why... Damn Suzie you sure tore the hell out of that one, I threw up a little in my mouth. I think I am going to sit here a bit longer to see if anybody can top that one.

Remodeling a bathroom is a good investment, according to that fag, Ty Pennington.

Is your office totally cool with mothers (perhaps visting ones) breastfeeding or using a breastmilk pump in public? If so, for how long has that been the case? Think about that for a second, and there's one longstanding mystery that should be solved for you.

What a waste!

For that amount of money--there has to be a 20 person jacuzzi with a TV that goes into a cabinet and a butler!

Who approved this? Congress?

Menstrual cramps and migraines. The only reasons I've ever used those "couches" in the ladies room at work - maybe a couple of times in 20 years. In our case, they're not couches but more like those lounge things the school nurse had in her office.

We have family bathroom. It has a couch. We are a small company too. That one could be used for all that.

A 20 person jacuzzi? That a lot of DNA, McCankles

Nice deflectijons-but they're too obvious AS deflections...
You Rtards are gonna hafta do better'n 'at-if you ever want to be "in" again...

"a 20 person jacuzzi with a TV that goes into a cabinet and a butler!"

Just a little touch of Hillbilly Heaven. Why, gal, just wait till you get a gander of the Jungle Room!

"Who approved this? Congress?"

In the sense that Congress shoved a certain amount of dough into this guy's agency? Yes, then Congress. But in terms of the actual allocation and disbursements of the funds? Naw, that would be this GOPiggy's doing. Time to switch channels, eh?

Thank God there will finally be some fiscal restraint over the next few years.

[snicker]

as democrats of a previous generation used to say: waste makes for a good business...

Those Idaho repugs need their legroom.

In his defense, getting the right design and acoustic materials to reflect and enrich the toe-tapping sounds ain't cheap.

I mean, he is a GOP official...

Yup, well that plus the fact that it's hard for a GOPher to take a really wide stance within the confines of a traditional sized shitter so this one had to be specially customised.

Be Well.

He is the ultimate politician.

Is this a new DR Record?

It only took 'til the 2nd post for some assclown to make an Obama deflection.

That's fucking rich. Or is it "Bush leaque"?

No, it's not a record. I've seen "bush's fault" as the first retort many times.

We have a teacher's lounge. It's second hand furniture with a coffee pot. No, I'm not complaining. We're lucky to have it and I'm thankful.

We'll all pitch in and pay for the first hour of counseling for you, goat-bitch.

Cool. I'll wait for the cash. BTW, good counselors are about $2k/hr. I want (and you deserve) the best.

Who wants to sit on a couch in a bathroom?

Ladies. We usually have a lot more to do.

In a number of the larger dept. stores many ladies' rooms have two sections -- one with a couch and chairs, along with a long vanity table (w/mirror) to set your purse on it so you can comb your hair and touch up your make-up. These rooms often even have rugs on the floor. Sometimes if you have little ones with you the chairs let you sit down while you get the kids fixed up -- shoelaces tied, etc. and get your shopping bags and stuff organized.

Then in a separate, but open and adjoining room (w/no rugs), are the bathroom stalls and sinks to wash your hands. Yes, the majority of women DO wash their hands afterwards -- or should if they don't. Some ladies' rooms even have a small table which folds down from the wall when needed for changing a baby.

These sort of "lounges" attached to the bathrooms are usually provided because when shopping for a long time (and women can shop for hours!), it gives you a place to sit down for a few minutes without having to go to a restaurant or somewhere just to get a place to rest for a few minutes, plus it gives you some privacy.

Answered most of your questions? lol

If I am gonna have a 235 G bathroom it's gonna have a gold filled lav. Gold filled bathtub faucets. Miniature train going on the wall and a toilet that wipes and cleans up after You go. Oh and a super heated floor so My footsies stay warm when I get out of the tub. That is fricking outragious really.

Larry

Larry -- I think the Japanese have actually built a toilet that washes and wipes your ass.

I would hope so at that price.

The Australians could invent the "G'day Bidet"

Good God Goat,

I shudder to even read that.

I wonder why you went there.
