Bush* says he can not think of a single mistake he has made
So being a Drunk for forty years was not a mistake or his several arrests, one for Drunken Driving. Not a mistake. He has made no mistakes just ask him.

3. That's because Bush is selfishly stubborn and has an overly simplistic
world view that he refuses to change even after spending 4 years in the most powerful position in the world. He is inflexible and myopic, and that makes his judgment questionable.

5. Personally, I can't think of a single mistake he has NOT made
Given an obvious decision, he invariably picks the wrong course. He is perfect in his incompetence. All Kerry has to do to be a great president is to ask himself "what would George do" and do exactly the opposite.

12. well, I can think of 1 non-mistake - but, that is it
The "Do Not Call" list was good. But, that is about it.

6. He can't think of a single mistake he's made?
He's probably telling the truth.

Which is more than a little unnerving.

8. Fool me once, shame on - - shame on you.
Fool me -- you can't get fooled again.

The psychiatrist who wrote about Bush says he can not admit to any mistakes, noting that he was unable to point the finger of blame at himself even while using a common saying. He was literally unable to get the words "Shame on me", out of his mouth.

9. It's the aura of infallibility ....

He perceives admission of error as a sign of weakness. That cannot be admitted. Therefore EVERYTHING is someone else's fault. Mostly Clinton's I suspect.

Look, I can stand some excuses in conjunction with an admission of error. There are reasons we make bad decisions. And changing one's attitude and opinions is a sign of STRENGTH not weakness.

Bush is arrogant tothe core. No amount of evidence will ever convince him that he is wrong about ANYTHING. That is a profoundly disturbing quality in a leader. It's like the captain of the Titanic refusing to slow down because of iceberg reports.

Unlike the Titanic's captain, I don't think Bush has ANY intention of going down with the ship. That honor will fall to us proles. The rich and the affluent will sail off in the lifeboats and we'll all be left to drown.

So lets get this word out in public usage BUSHTANITC!!!! And of course, we're all headed towards an IRAG-BERG.

11. Check out the way Bush looks at the John, the reporter
when he tells him "I wish youda (sic) given me this written question ahead of time so I could plan for it." Has anyone seen John since this press conference? :scared:

13. I'll give Bush the benefit of the doubt
Wearing a ribbon he had not earned could definitely be a mistake.

14. I was sure this press conference would make scales fall from eyes.....
When the CNN staff came on right after that horror and said "Well he did pretty well....stay the course...blah blah blah
I almost fell off my chair..both in shock at their toadying.. and in mortification that this boob is naked before the world in his idiocy as MY REPRESENTATIVE
:grr: :nuke:
