1. He has Chaney With Him


He is praising Rummy to the high hills.
His eyes are blinking and his throat is tight.
Those pictures must have been something else.

36. That and Cheney is spelled with an 'e' not an 'a'.
Edited on Mon May-10-04 11:51 AM by MiddleMen
Don't feel bad though. I just recently spelled Colombia as Columbia, but then again I do live in Columbus so that seems like a fair excuse. :)

Ahh after running the spell checker I see the misspelling probably came from it.

41. Cheney's name is actually pronounced chee-nee
By the time he and his wife corrected it in the media, it was too late. Almost everyone says chay-nee.

4. I can't stand
his voice and the cadence of his speeches and the butchering of the english language. He sees the poll numbers and he's trying to appear presidential.

14. said he needs a LOT MORE MONEY...and congress must approve

it immediately.....(didn't say exactly how much)


today's bush* spew is mostly about him wanting more money for his fiasco...with no new changes from the TOP...bush* has spent the morning googling over his POW sex-torture snuff operation....


his speech is a real bully speech: some dare question our cause...
saddam was an evil guy....freedom is the answer to hopelessness and terror....and and....oooops...bush* forgot the usual, 'saddam had rape rooms and tortured his people'....and GIVE ME MORE MONEY for more torture....


we're keeping terrorists on the run...

unselfish courage....

these achievements have bought PRIDE to our nation....

39. War on Terra
I am SOOOOOOOOOO tired of hearing that Bushism

There is NO War on Terra, it is a fight, but not a WAR

A WAR is something that Congress declares, and they have not yet.

10. Oh, my god!
"We're fully committed to their national dignity." HOW can he say stuff like this? Isn't he afraid of being struck dead?

There is nothing new in his speech. Same old, same old. Peace, free Iraq, morality, decency, freedom, blah, blah, blah. Oh, and by the way, that'll be $25 billion. For now.

They admit no mistake whatsoever.

Iraq is free, Iraq is better off. We are more secure since Saddam is gone. Yeah, yeah.

25. Let's hope the media begins "educating" the masses. From Ozy's sig
line:

"As people do better, they start voting like Republicans...unless they have too much education and vote Democratic, which proves there can be too much of a good thing.” - Karl Rove

I think it is three naked prisoners all entwined laying on the floor with several soldiers around. I think lynndie's boyfriend is one of them. That is a very important photo. The attorney for the boyfriend says it shows a civilian contractor touching the prisoners! I have been looking all morning for it. Please post it if you can. Thanks.

"It's just a few bad apples." "Not as bad as the four mutilated contractors." "Rummy is a really good Secretary of Defense." "Justice will be served." "American troops are doing a lot of great things." Blah! Blah! Blah!

44. So did he mention that NATO is backing away from participation in Iraq
that is a corner stone in his plans that he outlined in his recent press conference/speech to the public in his timeline for Iraq... that the current coalition would transition to a multinational NATO force led by Poland...

In the last couple of weeks Poland has declared that it does not anticipate involvement longer than their current commitment (which either runs to the end of this summer, or to the end of this year)... and last week NATO indicated that it is backing away from participation in Iraq.

Seems germaine to the question as he begs for more money (undoubtedly under estimating the real needs for political expediency...)

46. Text of President Bush's Pentagon Remarks
~snip~
Mr. Secretary, thank you for your hospitality, and thank you for your leadership. You are courageously leading our nation in the war against terror. You're doing a superb job. You are a strong Secretary of Defense, and our nation owes you a debt of gratitude.

~snip~

In January, shortly after reports of abuse became known to our military, an investigation was launched. Today, several formal investigations led by senior military officials are under way. Secretary Rumsfeld has appointed several former senior officials to review the investigations of these abuses. Some soldiers have already been charged, and those involved will answer for their conduct in an orderly and transparent process. We will honor rule of law. All prison operations in Iraq will be thoroughly reviewed to make certain that such offenses are not repeated.

Those responsible for these abuses have caused harm that goes well beyond the walls of a prison. It has given some an excuse to question our cause and to cast doubt on our motives. Yet, who can doubt that Iraq is better for being free from one of the most bloodiest tyrants the world has ever known? Millions of Iraqis are grateful for the chance they have been given to live in freedom — a chance made possible by the courage and sacrifice of the United States military.

We have great respect for the people of Iraq and for all Arab peoples — respect for their culture and for their history and for the contribution they can make to the world. We believe that democracy will allow these gifts to flourish. But freedom is the answer to hopelessness and terror; that a free Iraq will lead the way to a new and better Middle East; and that a free Iraq will make our country more secure.

~snip~
