Bush: "I sleep well at night. I attribute that to my faith."

In preparation for President Bush's visit to Denmark en route to the G-8 Summit in Scotland, he was interviewed by a member of the Danish media. The reporter, representing the Danish Broadcasting System, said he mentioned to his 11-year-old daughter that he was interviewing the President of the United States. She wanted to know what the President thinks about when he falls asleep at night. President Bush, touched by the question offered the following candid answer, saying that his peace of mind is due, in large part, to his faith and the prayers of Americans:

Yes, fascinating question. You've got to tell your daughter that, one, I sleep well at night. I subscribe that -- this may be controversial for some -- I subscribe it to the fact that I've got peace of mind. And I attribute that to my faith, and to this amazing fact about America: Millions of people -- no matter what their political affiliation may be or their background -- pray for me and Laura. And for that, I am incredibly grateful.
--George W. Bush



"Though his days are filled with a mind-numbing array of meetings, briefings, consultations and decisions, President Bush wants the world to know he has great peace of mind, thanks to the prayers of Americans who pray for him. Image courtesy of the White House."

[chalky]

2. Funny--I attribute it to his lack of conscience.

[enki23]

9. same thing

[Deja Q]

30. BINGO. That or his faith is in the burning hands of Satan.

[ProudDad]

45. Along with a total inability to feel empathy.

He's a sociopath!!

[etherealtruth]

50. Though no diagnostician, I'll guess narcissistic sociopath...

[Virginian]

3. I guess he doesn't know we pray for him -- to resign.

[alittlelark]

4. My daughter has had bad dreams about *....

He keeps laughing... for no reason.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

7. I think we all have that dream from time to time.

:toast:

[Mnemosyne]

52. My eyes! My eyes!

He is a nightmare! Do nightmares sleep?

my 4 year old grandson, at no prompting from me (really!), calls him a badman every time he see's * face on TV. Wise little guy, isn't he?!

[Erika]

5. He is amoral n/t

[Bluebear]

6. I attribute it to the bourbon. n/t

[Vickers]

25. My thoughts exactly...but instead of Knob Creek, he drinks

Knob Head.

:P

[Freedomfried]

8. That, and the beer

[XemaSab]

33. Irish car bombs

shot of irish creme in a glass of guiness. good stuff.

[Journeyman]

10. "Rabbi! Rabbi! Is there a blessing for the Shrub?. . . "

"A blessing for the Shrub? My, yes, of course.

"May the Lord bless and keep the Shrub. . . far away from us!"

[greenbriar]

11. DRUGS is how he sleeps

thats why he goes to bed at 9 pm

[XemaSab]

34. Hey

9 is a perfectly reasonable time to go to bed, if you start hitting the licker hard at 5, as God intended.

[Skittles]

12. he has "peace of mind" because he has no conscience

f***ing sociopath

[OKDem08]

13. Pascal quote

Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.

[Qanisqineq]

14. I pray for him

I pray for him to be impeached and by some miracle Kerry takes over as President.

Actually, I'm an atheist so I don't pray. But if I did....

[ogradda]

15. We don't necessarily pray for him to sleep well.

I will agree he inspires a lot of praying.

[freeEarthLove]

16. OMIGOD!

OMIGOD! What a tool!

[hlthe2b]

17. all Sociopaths sleep well....

I'm told...

Bastard-- your karma will catch up with you.

[smokeyjoe]

18. Alas! Ignorance is Bliss

[cleveramerican]

19. its easy if your certain about everything

what drivel he spouted, he's gotten REALLY good at this!

[tocqueville]

20. latest Doonesbury exactly on topic

[Cha]

39. Oh God, that was perfect!

Spot on. Welcome to DU, toqueville!

[trebizond]

21. Well, they say getting to sleep requires clearing your head of all thought

I'd imagine George finds that relatively easy.

[leftofthedial]

22. religiously insane

[checks-n-balances]

23. His "faith" in what???

The GOP/Rove propaganda machine?

Diebold voting machines?

The Military-Industrial Complex?

The BFEE's network of friends to always bail his butt out?

Just the fact that he claims to have a "faith" that allows him to sleep easily at night is blasphemous in itself.

His gods are "Mammon" (money) and Power.

[Vinca]

24. Guess I'll have to

get larger pins for the voodoo doll!:rofl:

[NVMojo]

26. it's called not having a conscience, Bush, you fuckstick!

[mwb970]

27. What a horrible, worthless president we have. (n/t)

[ginnyinWI]

49. Amen. n/t

[zulchzulu]

28. Bush at least admitted he needs people to pray for him

Sounds like he wants to admit he has a problem. Prey on the World by day, pray to a false god by night.

[kentuck]

29. Oh, is he going to be surprised !

It's awful hot in here...I thought Heaven was going to be a cool place??

[Q]

31. The Madness of King George...

...who sleeps well...with his faith and 10mg of Ambien.

[CBHagman]

32. I pray for justice!

What was that quote? That America should tremble if there is indeed a just God?

But I can sincerely for protection for elected leaders, even if I don't agree with their politics. I don't want suffering or bloodshed.

But...because I don't want suffering or bloodshed, I also pray for Bush to be revealed to the country (the world already knows) for the manipulative, cruel, short-sighted creature he is. I've prayed for him to be punished (and for us all to live to see it), but it's not mine to hand out punishment.

[XemaSab]

35. Reminds me of Distressed American's

graphic of Jesus slapping Bush.

[derby378]

36. I pray for GWB to be hauled out of the White House in handcuffs

Does that count?

[Mnemosyne]

54. Our prayers combined...

could move the Earth!!

[earth mom]

37. No worries...no conscience...

:puke:

[Cha]

38. LIAR...

bush is a proven LIAR ..so why should anyone believe ANYTHING he says?

And he lied about the most awful thing in existence..whether or not a country should bomb another country.

Just ask Cindy Sheehan!

bush fits the profile of a sociopath..so whether he "sleeps" or not is moot.

Edit to add.."And he lied about the most awful thing in existence..whether or not a country should bomb another country.

Just ask Cindy Sheehan!"

[City Lights]

40. Oh, chimpy, that's a good one.

:rofl:

We all know the the pampered rich boy can't sleep without his precious feather pillow. His supposed faith has nothing to do with it. If he doesn't get a good night's sleep on his vewwy own piwwow, he's throws tantrums the next day.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

41. Bush at start of Iraq war: "I feel good", he said, pumping his fist.

I guess that's a new form of prayer.

[kodi]

42. How sweet to be an Idiot

How sweet to be an Idiot
As harmless as a cloud
Too small to hide the sun
Almost poking fun
At the warm but insecure untidy crowd.

How sweet to be an idiot
And dip my brain in joy
Children laughing at my back
With no fear of attack
As much retaliation as a toy
How sweet to be an idiot.
How sweet...

I tiptoe down the street
Smile at everyone I meet.

But suddenly a scream
Smashes through my dream
Fee fi fo fum
I smell the blood of an asylum
Hey you, you're such a pedant
You got as much brain as a dead ant
As much inagination as a caravan site!

But I still love you, still love you, oooh
How swee-ee-eet to be an idiot
How sweet
How sweeeeet
How sweeeeeeeet......

[markam]

43. I'm sure Hitler slept like a baby also

Insane socipaths usually do.

[Writer]

44. With American lives on the line, George,

only an IMMORAL man would sleep like a baby, with little worry and the fictitious succor of assumed prayers.

[alarimer]

46. I attribute to a total lack of conscience

If you don't give a shit, it's very easy to sleep. What an asshole!

[MrBadExample]

48. Subscribe?

Subscribe? No, you ascribe it, you illiterate coked-up drooling monkey-faced syphilitic dog-raping fucking simpleton. Stop using words when you don't know what the fuck they mean.



I need to go lie down now. x(

53. That and a half pound of Thorazine

[Flying Dream Blues]

55. his choice of words is always

so inappropriate. What about that question is "fascinating?"

And yes, he sleeps the sleep of the conscience-less...clearly!!!
