BUSH: One of the major theaters against al Qaeda turns out to have been Iraq. This is where al Qaeda said they were going to take their stand. This is where al Qaeda was hoping to take–

RADDATZ: But not until after the U.S. invaded.

BUSH: Yeah, that’s right. So what? The point is that al Qaeda said they’re going to take a stand. Well, first of all in the post-9/11 environment Saddam Hussein posed a threat. And then upon removal, al Qaeda decides to take a stand.

1. Shameless sociopath

[Lasher]

2. Repeating slogans.

Saddam was not a threat. And Junior has not kept the country safe. Too bad for him but he has to count 9/11 when he was asleep at the wheel. If there have been no subsequent attacks, then I am left to wonder what that was when a bomb exploded on December 12 in a Woodburn, Oregon bank.

What a weenie.

[liberalmuse]

3. I don't think there's a punishment...

that would be barbaric enough or suitable for this piece of shit.

[Karenina]

19. I doubt Amis will conjure up even a wrist slap...

PLEASE MAKE ME WRONG! :cry:

[bdamomma]

4. what a sick bastard this guy is.

he needs to be committed and convicted.

[Piewhacket]

5. He's just stagiing an insanity defense...

for his war crimes trial.

[florida08]

6. so what??

4200 troops dead and over 30,000 wounded,mamed and handicapped..that's so what..ignorant sycophant

[Rambis]

7. So what?

I am speechless! This idea that "I kept you safer after I didn't" on 911-
Saddam, 911, L Keidah, fuck me! this clown can't leave fast enough

[rainy]

8. For real? This guy is really our president? People acutally voted

for him?

[mlevans]

9. Yeah, some people did.

And some just played jiggery-pokery with the voting machine tallies.

[pjt7]

10. He is on drugs, look @ his eyes

There's not a doubt in my mind that his handlers have him medicated.

[Plucketeer]

11. GOOD GOD!

What a BLITHERING ASS-HAT! It's just amazing to think that with ALL the brain-power that this nation has, we could have this DOLT as a represntative of us all.

Here's hoping that all the younger folks that got jazzed up about the presidential race this time, will NOT forget this DUNCE of a president (and the field of Bozo-ian GOP replacements that were offered to maintain his maniachal reign) for eons to come.

What we've seen is the fruit of the tree that Reaganomics planted 30 years ago. The ultimate goal of "privatization" of EVERYTHING (Including the White House!!!) is a bogus one. Corporate America has not only bought and commercialized EVERY friggin' thing that money could buy - they even managed to "sponsor" the Oval Office and seat a brainless puppet to do their bidding...... while everything that really matters to the citizens is squashed into disarray! :grr:

[lumpy]

14. You have nailed it, right on.

This is the lesson that has to be learned by voters in this screwed up nation or we will be going down the tube.

[Phred42]

12. Say that to the Face of any MOther whose child die in Iraq

sick bastard

[DUlover2909]

13. His sniffing thru his nose when he talks is irritating.

[mt13]

15. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

if i didn't despise this poor excuse for a man, this certainly seals my emotions. what an ignorant piece of shit.

[PerpetuallyDazed]

16. oh my lord...

my head is spinning just listening to that. He contradicted himself like five times... how is this man's approval rating not any lower...??

[republicansarewhores]

17. "Since 9/11".

"Since 9/11".

Like he deserves a fucking pass on that.

Like I wrote in another thread... it's a shame that journalist didn't have a hand grenade to throw instead of his shoes.

RAW

[Karenina]

20. I'm happy both shoes missed.

Otherwise I'm certain the journalist would no longer be with us. His survival is still in question. The subtlety of the FREE SPEECH SHOE seems to fly by too many. Great! Cheer on! Americans have largely done naught but cower in the face of GWB&[e-mail]. YOU have yet to hold this man who represented YOU to the world for 8 years accountable EVEN as he spends his last days FUCKING SHIT UP for YEARS TO COME!

And the media have already labeled it the "Obama Depression" even before he... OH NEVER MIND!

IGNORE ME! Seeing that asshole just makes me spit tacks!

18. Puff

:smoke: There hasn't been an attack on the U.S., except by the Republican Party, since I quit smoking.
