My hometown is burning and this IDIOT is talking about Iranian ICBMs.
Edited on Tue Oct-23-07 02:01 PM by bos1
Just got off the phone to SD and then a second later I hear B*sh on the news talking about Iran soon being able to hit the US with intercontinental ballistics missiles. Another homeland disaster like Katrina is going on under his incompetent nose and this jerk is still using the same script from the invasion and occupation and mass murder of Iraq.

No link yet but here's good enough:
Bush wants another $42 billion for wars

SICK

OF

IT

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Edit: Here a link to his ICBM (while I see BS!) comments.

Missile shield is 'urgent' - Bush

US President George W Bush has said there is a "real and urgent" need for a missile defence system in Europe.

Mr Bush said the missile threat was from the Middle East, not Russia, which strongly opposes sites for the shield in Poland and the Czech Republic.

He warned that Iran could have a ballistic missile capable of reaching Europe or the US by 2015.

12. He should be talking about FIRE defense....
You're right, a threat that even he admits is at least 7 years away is not really pertinent today.

16. 7 years or 7 months
what's Iran gonna do with an ICBM? actually send one to the USA just to commit suicide? It's so stupid as to not be believed.

13. IRANIAN ICBMs? Huh?
I realize Shrub's memory is shorter than his pecker, but I clearly recall ol' Fucknuts screaming about the Iraqi Unmanned Aerial Vehicles that could deliver enough Deadly Weapons of Mass Destruction to wipe New York City off the face of the earth.

And then we captured one of the fucking things, along with the receipt from Joe's R/C Hobbies where they got it. The Iraqi Chemical Weapons Program was really awesome, I'm here to tell ya; one quart of the nerve gas it made (which is about all you're getting with no chemical plant) could destroy all human and animal life on earth--for Ninety Three Years! There must have been Cobalt-Thorium G in it!

17. Someone should ask him if he can find the United States on a map.
I swear he so full of himself as a "world leader" he doesn't even know we exist.

19. There should be a class action lawsuit against the Fed Gov.
on behalf of all those who lost their homes in CA. Hell, throw the Gulf State folks into it as well.

It is the Federal Govt.'s job to protect the country. It has failed miserably.
