Bush writes "let freedom reign!" on Bremer Iraq "sovereign" letter
Edited on Mon Jun-28-04 02:19 PM by ChavezSpeakstheTruth
I suppose he thinks this will be a historic document. It will be - but not for the reasons he thinks.

While it lasts its on cnn's home page

I'll try and find a picture

6. I'm guessing...
...that he was smart enough to crib the spelling of reign from Condi's original use of sove-reign. This was part of the plan

9. where do they get these phrases?

I've never ever heard anyone say "Let Freedom Reign!". Come to think of it, I've never heard anyone describe a bicycle wreck in terms of singing show tunes, or whatever they said then...

12. Methinks it was supposed to be
Let Freedom RING

You know...that saying, not reign, since freedom, by definition, cannot reign.

13. He is delusional
He is stuck in his own little world of religious self-rightesnous and doesn't know how this stuff is being perceived. He only knows what his lackeys tell him.

17. Ugh.
And if he meant it to be "Let Freedom Ring", from, "America/My Country Tis of Thee", then, well, it's all bad.

I too am among the uninformed, never having heard "Let Freedom Reign".

They are all crazy.

18. again with the "sharpie"
Not to go too far off topic, but why does Bush insist on using a "sharpie" (magic marker) to write with? It's so undignified. Why not a fountain pen, or at least a nice ball point? I know that's about 83,598th on our list of things to worry about right now, but...
