..The warning about Iran was much tougher than Bush's admonition about spreading democracy in the Middle East, which had been billed as the central theme of his speech.

Before flying to Dubai, Bush began his activities Monday by viewing a cultural exhibit and visiting business leaders in Abu Dhabi. At an exhibit on energy economy in the Gulf, Bush praised the United Arab Emirates federation for examining how to move beyond a reliance on oil.

"It's amazing, isn't it?" Bush said. "This country has gotten its wealth from the ground and is now reinvesting in alternative forms of energy."

7. You can fool some of the people all of the time, all the people some of the time
but you can't fool all the people all the time. A. Lincoln

Current Bush supporters (and they do exist!) fall into the first category.

3. Someone has probably gotten to him and pointed out the
hand writing on the wall:
"Republicans suck at governance"
2006 sent them a message and they realize what can happen this November. Most of the stuff Bush is saying and doing now is an attempt at damage control.
We can't let the public forget what these assholes have done!

5. Somebody's got to keep their eye on the ball.
The M109A6 self-propelled howitzer gets 1.3984962406 MPG. And the US military is burning 340,000 barrels of oil a day.
