George Bush- The "War" President

[The Tower]

It seems to me that if Dubya wants to claim himself as a "war President", perhaps he know something regarding the history of war. I mean, I know that Dubya is a total moron, but don't you think his speech writers should be able to remember simple history?

Here's an excerpt from his recent speech:

"Like the Second World War, our present conflict began with a ruthless surprise attack on the United States. We will not forget that treachery and we will accept nothing less than victory over the enemy."

See, for Dubya, the only country in the world that exists in the US. Perhaps, he might want to remember that WWII began in 1939 with Hitler invading Poland. I think it's kinda sneaky that he would compare the entry of the US into WWII to the fabricated invasion and "regime change" in Iraq.

Completely different scenarios. And his political sentimental manipulation is disgusting. At least his desperation is starting to show. I can't wait until he is gone, gone, gone in November!

Even slimier is his continued linkage of 9/11 terrorism to the invasion of Iraq. Whatta scumbag!

On cnn.com, there is a poll that had 70% of people disagreeing with W's comparison of Iraq to WWII. So, apparently many did not like that

This is the first time I post about politics, bush, war, etc.

Outside the US, Bush is seemed very related to war. They never found the supposed chemical bombs in IRak. I don't support Saddam, of course. He is a murderer. And of course I was shocked about 9/11.

But the recent conflicts in Irak, in my opinion, are generated because of Mr. Money. And the US politicians don't care about international opinion.

Welcome!!! We do not bite - just at times growl a little

I agree. And - as Lux pointed out - American politicians do not care because they know the US can use its economic influence through trade, loans, and donations to make just about any country do what it wants.

The funny thing is that he was warned by his own staff and by the French government not to make the comparison. But he did.

However, it's nothing compared to what happened on Saturday at the World War 2 memorial. I was so offended that I literally cried. My heart goes out to every veteran who watched it on television; that is not what the event was for and Bush should apologize.

Minute Rice has gone insane. Look at what she told the newspapers today:

"When you think of statesmen, you think of people who seized historic opportunities to change the world for the better, people like Roosevelt, people like Churchill, and people like Truman, who understood the challenges of communism. And this president has been an agent of change for the better -- historic change for the better."



Yup, Bush will be held up alongside Rooselvelt, Truman, and Churchill.

Have y'all (I can say that-I'm from the south) heard the story about how Condi was at a dinner with several reporters from the NYT & Washington Post and she pipes up and says, "As I was telling my husband. . . I mean, the President". . . OOPS! The press speculated that it was a case of "over-identification" with Mr. Bush & their relationship. You know--if one of Clinton's folks would have said something like that they would have ended up tarred & feathered in front of Starr & co. Jesus---I've got an absolutely terrific boss but I've never, ever, not once referred to him as my husband! Creepy. . . .. .

Oh--and Bush a statesman? Doesn't the word statesman imply that someone actually gets along with other countries and is held in high-esteem by them? Bush? Statesman? As someone said on DU earlier today, she ain't just drinking the Kool Aid, she must be snorting it!

I missed that!

And, yes, I heard that about her slip-up and I actually felt bad for her. Such a delusional little creature.

Dubya is such an asshole!

I've said it before and I'll say it again, Dubya is the most arrogant and tactless excuse for a human being in the world!

Delusions of grandeur. They can't even control him anymore. It will be his undoing.

I think she's going down. She's one of only FOUR people who knew the identity of Plame.
