Bush confuses terrorists. (Both almost named "Abu")

During remarks in Derry, N.H., Bush said the late terrorist Abu Nidal killed Leon Klinghoffer, a 69-year-old Jewish American who died after being tossed - along with his wheelchair - off a hijacked cruise liner named Achille Lauro in 1985.

"Do you remember Abu Nidal?" Bush asked the crowd. "He's the guy that killed Leon Klinghoffer. Leon Klinghoffer was murdered because of his religion. Abu Nidal was in Baghdad, as was his organization."

He repeated the mistake Monday evening at a campaign event in New York City: "Abu Nidal was a cold-blooded terrorist killer who killed Leon Klinghoffer."

Actually, it was Abul Abbas, the leader of a violent Palestinian group, who killed Klinghoffer.

4. LOL!

How perfect!

3. And the crowd cheered wildly nodding in agreement

"Yes your holy annointed one!"

5. Yeah ,,, Abu Nidal was in Iraq

He died of sudden acute lead poisoning about a year before we invaded. A tragic accident. It was ruled a suicide. Shot himself several times.

Iraq gave him asylum on condition that he refrain from activity, and he apparently forgot.

Further proof Bush is incapable of simple logic. Or, to put it more succinctly, the man is an idiot.

7. Kill 'em all

let God sort 'em out ...

Oh my fuckin' God what the hell ever happened to Yankee Ingenuity? This man is as stupid as a gila monster and half the country thinks he's on the ball.

[Tangledog]

8. Are you sure about that?

Gila monsters at least serve a useful purpose. What that purpose is, I don't have a clue, but I know in my heart of hearts they've got to have more going for them than B*.

9. I apologize

To the gila monsters. You're right.

Rephrasing:

"Bush is as dumb as a stone ..."

Damn. Now I've insulted the earth itself.

Yeah. Yer right. Pretty much any average inanimate object has a higher IQ than the brain dead asshole running this show.

10. ......"on the ball"???

They worship him!

11. Hmmm ...
