It's high time to call a spade a spade, GWB is a LIAR! He LIED
I remember when that was the big thing the "conservatives" would say during the Clinton impeachment/witch hunt...it's not about sex, "he lied" they would say. Well, this evil bastard in the White House has lied about many things. In fact, the way I see it, for the last 5 years the American people say things like "the economy is horrible, the worst I've ever seen in my 25 years of doing business" and * says, "The economy is great we've turned the corner" or the American people say "we don't want this war, we want to get the actual terrorists why aren't we after them" and * says "WE WILL STAY THE COURSE" and the American People say __________ fill in the blank and * will say the opposite. He's the GREAT DECEIVER! He's been lying the entire time about issues that affect this nation. I think the puppet masters want to destroy this country as we know it. It is the only thing that makes sense. If you use your brain and think about it...that theory makes sense. He's an idiot, he's incompetent, he is also EVIL! As are the people who stand with him.

1. I agree
but our only chance of getting rid of them are by winning back Congress next year...unless we can get them arrested for their crimes before.

3. He's like Richard the III...without the stunning intellect.
How pathetic is that. All his troops are fleeing. His loyal press mocks him. His congressional flunkies begin to assert their independence. He just lost the Enquirer which ran the most devastating story it could -- Bush is drinking. He thinks he has the military but wait until he trys to get them to make a move, he'll be leading a charge with an empty field behind him.

"Proclaim a pardon to the soldiers fled
That in submission will return to us:
And then, as we have ta'en the sacrament,
We will unite the white rose and the red:
Smile heaven upon this fair conjunction,
That long have frown'd upon their enmity!
What traitor hears me, and says not amen?
England hath long been mad, and scarr'd herself;
The brother blindly shed the brother's blood,
The father rashly slaughter'd his own son,
The son, compell'd, been butcher to the sire:"

Richmond, "Richard the III"

A year and a half ago, I said saying Bush lied was hypocritical: http://www.shockingelk.com/text/questions/

Now, it's understood he lied from the start.

6. Bush a liar?
Except for the American media the entire world knows that Bush is one of the most compulsive and incessant liars in the history of American politics.

There is no subject so somber, serious, or shallow that Bush will not lie about it. The only other option is not to lie. And that apparently is something Bush can not do.

For example:

Bush says he fell off his bicycle because of the heavy rains and he watched on television on the morning of 9/11 as the first plane hit the first WTC tower and John McCain has an illegitimate Negro daughter and Bush would veto McCain-Feingold and the yawning boy was not there and was not yawning and besides he was standing some place else and Richard Clarke had complete access to Bush and Rice which proves that Clarke was out of the loop which is Clinton's fault but the White House revealed that Clarke briefed the press on background about Bush fighting terrorism which means that unnamed White House sources may not be identified even when Bush wants to and everyone except Bush himself knows where he was during his National Guard service but it was Clinton's fault that Bush did not show up for duty which was after Bush volunteered to go to Viet Nam but before he was no longer required to take a flight physical and about the same time that God ordered him to smite Saddam because the 70 lines of embryonic stem cells and more arsenic in the water and more mercury in the air and the completely safe air in New York City folowing 9/11 prove that the intelligently designed republican science is better than sound science and the Bush administration did not illegally conspire to illegally reveal the identity of a covert CIA operative which resulted in 2 million new jobs being created because democrats support terrorism and are not good Americans just as the Jews were not good Germans which is why Bush said he would veto the creation of both the Department of Homeland Security and the 9/11 Commission but now claims credit for their creation and the White House cooperated with the 9/11 Commission which is why the White House withheld documents and called the republicans on the Commission before Clarke testified and why the White House did not coordinate the attacks on the integrity and bipartisanship of the Commission and why Bush and Cheney negotiated with the Commission that the two of them would testfy one time only but never again since the dental xrays prove that Bush spoke with the CIA director everyday and did not ignore either the repeated warnings of the dangers of al Qaeda and Osama or the August 2001 intelligence briefing specifically warning of the upcoming 9/11 attacks because the United States is a nation with a mission and that mission is to bring freedom to every single person in the world which will cut the deficit in half if you do not count those parts of the deficit which will increase under Bush which is Clinton's fault but the boxes from China were labeled "Made in USA" which resulted in 2.6 million new jobs being created even though the $400 billion Medicare prescription drug decorative turkey was not labeled $550 billion and was passed without bribery or criminal deception and was not criminally promoted by the Bush administration using taxpayers' money for propaganda purposes which proves that government spending under Bush has gone down if you do not count the increased government spending under Bush which is Clinton's fault just as acts of terrorism have decreased since 9/11 if you do not count the increase in the number of acts of terrorism and Bush's plane to Baghdad was spotted because before Saddam bought the uranium and became an "urgent" but not an imminent threat which is Clinton's fault Bush had no plans on his desk to invade Iraq since the invasion was not planned before Bush took office even though it was the subject of his first national security council meeting in February 2001 and in December 2001 when plans for the invasion were being finalized Bush said he was focused on the military operations in Afghanistan and then the Carrier Costume Party was too far offshore for the Navy to make a large enough "Mission Accomplished" banner to describe the WMD we have found in Iraq some of which Saddam was giving to Osama for following Saddam's plans and using Iraqi hijackers on 9/11 which is Clinton's fault but everyone who pays income taxes got a tax cut which created 3 million new jobs and allowed Iraqi oil revenue to pay for the cost of the reconstruction of Iraq after the invasion by a small number of troops who would be greeted with floral program related activities except for the dead and wounded troops who are being brought home secretly which is Clinton's fault since Bush is the one who hugs the mothers and the widows and the wives and the kids and since Bush does not watch television news he did not know about the republican torture pranks occurring in Iraq until he saw the pictures while watching television news and that is why Bush who will use the jawbone of an ass to force OPEC to open the spigots and who is responsible for good economic numbers but not bad economic numbers which are Clinton's fault wrote the poem that he did not write blaming Laura for dropping the dog.

Ridiculing Bush for his compulsive and incessant lying needs to become common.

FIRE THE LIAR

11. Does he even know the truth?
I mean the guy admits he doesn't read, doesn't watch TV...only gets his 'news' presented in memos from Condi and we all know how well that goes.

We should send his 2003 state of the union to anyone who is still believes him...

"The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.

Our intelligence sources tell us that he has attempted to purchase high-strength aluminum tubes suitable for nuclear weapons production.

Saddam Hussein has not credibly explained these activities. He clearly has much to hide.

The dictator of Iraq is not disarming. To the contrary, he is deceiving.

From intelligence sources, we know, for instance, that thousands of Iraqi security personnel are at work hiding documents and materials from the U.N. inspectors, sanitizing inspection sites and monitoring the inspectors themselves.

Iraqi officials accompany the inspectors in order to intimidate witnesses. Iraq is blocking U-2 surveillance flights requested by the United Nations.

Iraqi intelligence officers are posing as the scientists inspectors are supposed to interview. Real scientists have been coached by Iraqi officials on what to say.

Intelligence sources indicate that Saddam Hussein has ordered that scientists who cooperate with U.N. inspectors in disarming Iraq will be killed, along with their families.

Year after year, Saddam Hussein has gone to elaborate lengths, spent enormous sums, taken great risks to build and keep weapons of mass destruction. But why?

The only possible explanation, the only possible use he could have for those weapons, is to dominate, intimidate or attack.

With nuclear arms or a full arsenal of chemical and biological weapons, Saddam Hussein could resume his ambitions of conquest in the Middle East and create deadly havoc in that region.

And this Congress and the American people must recognize another threat. Evidence from intelligence sources, secret communications and statements by people now in custody reveal that Saddam Hussein aids and protects terrorists, including members of Al Qaida. Secretly, and without fingerprints, he could provide one of his hidden weapons to terrorists, or help them develop their own.

Before September the 11th, many in the world believed that Saddam Hussein could be contained. But chemical agents, lethal viruses and shadowy terrorist networks are not easily contained.

Imagine those 19 hijackers with other weapons and other plans, this time armed by Saddam Hussein. It would take one vial, one canister, one crate slipped into this country to bring a day of horror like none we have ever known.

We will do everything in our power to make sure that that day never comes.

Some have said we must not act until the threat is imminent. Since when have terrorists and tyrants announced their intentions, politely putting us on notice before they strike?

If this threat is permitted to fully and suddenly emerge, all actions, all words and all recriminations would come too late. Trusting in the sanity and restraint of Saddam Hussein is not a strategy, and it is not an option.

The dictator who is assembling the world's most dangerous weapons has already used them on whole villages, leaving thousands of his own citizens dead, blind or disfigured.

Iraqi refugees tell us how forced confessions are obtained: by torturing children while their parents are made to watch. International human rights groups have catalogued other methods used in the torture chambers of Iraq: electric shock, burning with hot irons, dripping acid on the skin, mutilation with electric drills, cutting out tongues, and rape.

If this is not evil, then evil has no meaning."

WHERE ARE THE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION? The weapons inspections worked you asshole! The sanctions worked! Why did half a million Iraqi children have to die because of the sanctions, and then you bombed them anyway?? If this is not evil, then evil has no meaning.

Who is the terrorist??

12. It will force the GOP/ media to split hairs over his dishonesty.
Edited on Fri Sep-23-05 04:13 PM by Dr Fate
Especially if DEMs start lisiting actual examples, over and over.

Wolf: "Well, you cant really say that was a 'lie', can you?"

DEM: "Well- it was not true- I dont know about you or Bush, but my Mama called that lying..."

Wolf: Well mabye he mispoke?

DEM: So Bush 'mis-speaks' hundreds of times over the past 5 years...was he 'misspeaking' when he said this...and this...and this?...

etc, etc

13. And of course, the old fallback position
The old look-into-his-heart dodge: "Well, events have since proven that Bush didn't have a fucking clue as to what he was talking about, but he truly believed that what he was saying was true. And therefore, his actions were perfectly understandable."

I wonder if I went into the home of a media whore and start blasting away with a shotgun, I'd get the same hands-off treatment if I stated very earnestly and honestly that I truly believed that there were invisible terrorists in their home?

But then, the media whores don't live in Iraq, so what do they care? Defense contractors throw swell parties, so laissez les bon temps roulez!

15. So he has been 'mistaken' about pretty much everything? That is better?
"...I think that after the 100th or so time of saying things that are not true, it's safe to say he is lying on purpose- but if the GOP position is that he is just plain wrong about everything, then that does not bode well for Americans either."

It's not rocket science- you just have to have some guts.

16. Well, we're also into amnesia times
The media don't seem to remember anything from longer ago than the last news cycle. Bush was wrong, mistaken, deceitful, lying (or whatever) about something yesterday? Can't say that I remember anything about that. Besides, it's old news. Time to move forward. Everything has changed since then. Not relevant. Why do you keep harping on it? Nobody knows how things got this bad, and we could argue all day long about who launched a pre-emptive war and who was wearing the cheerleader outfits, but the bottom line is that the president said he understands, so that should be the end of it.

The RNC blast fax sets the tone, and the media quickly fall in line.

The flip side: John Kerry said something 35 years ago when he was good and pissed off after getting out of the service? Let's spend five straight days arguing over whether Kerry was just willfully misguided or an out-and-out traitor.

17. DEMs can say it on every TV show.
We dont have to wait for the media to remind the people of all the things Bush has either lied or been flat out wrong about- we can list it ourselves when we are on those shows.

Edited on Sat Sep-24-05 09:52 AM by geckosfeet
guilty of several "real" crimes.

Ins this case its not the lying, it the war that it got us into. He lied about the gravest thing a president can lead a country into.

His administration is also guilty of suppressing and denying free speech.

His administration is also guilty of disclosing the identity of and undercover CIA agent.

His administration is also guilty of withholding information critical to our senate and congressional lawmakers that they need to perform their duties.

Its way past time that these people were called out.
