“And there are a lot of people in the Democrat Party who believe that the best course of action is to leave Iraq before the job is done, period, and they’re wrong.”

In calling the opposition the “Democrat Party” Mr. Bush was repeating a truncated, incorrect version of the party’s name that some Democrats have called a slight, an assertion the White House dismissed as ridiculous.


...so long as he's the president.

8. I recommend that freepers read the GAO and Conyers reports
Edited on Thu Aug-24-06 04:28 PM by electropop
on how Bush stole the elections.

Why are freepers so in love with guns that they identify themselves as guns? Is it a phallic thing, compensation for small size or what?

Have a nice day.

13. Many do not think of him that way.
Edited on Thu Aug-24-06 05:54 PM by mcscajun
Some call him the pResident, the Current Occupant, and other choice monikers. Some are quite serious, others just use the humor to stay sane in our currently insane country.

Welcome to DU. :bounce:

4. AND MAYBE THE NEXT WORSE THING IS...
The fact that the neocons could dream up something horrendous, pull it off,producing mass hysteria and the next election would be cancelled, and then Chimpnutz would be in control FOREVER!

7. This is very minor, but has bugged me sooo much...that "period."
"...there are a lot of people in the Democrat Party who believe that the best course of action is to leave Iraq before the job is done, period, and they’re wrong.”

As usual for Bush, when it concerns the English language, he's utterly clueless. Case in point, the "period." AFAIK, no one, not one democrat, says the best course of action is to leave Iraq, PERIOD. That implies "end of discussion." No other point to make -- we must leave, period. But I don't think even Chimpy meant to say that. What he meant to say was "That is wrong, period." The clear implication being that Bush thinks those who would leave Iraq before the job is done are wrong, and he feels there is nothing left to discuss. The PERIOD is in the wrong place. It is minor, to be sure, but it does underscore the constant stupidity of this president which we are bombarded with every day. He can't even punctuate, a sentence. Properly period.

10. The language is disjointed and meant to annoy. "Democrat Party"
blows their cover every time. Same page, same talking point, same brainless noise, same chorus over and over and over again. Somebody change the record, please. :eyes:

I look forward to cleansing this muck out of our language.

12. He won't veer from his path. We've seen and heard enough to know it.
Any change in the direction we are going will have to come from within. It's going to be a long, scary trip until we get there.

16. You were kind...
That's nice...you were really kind to the Shrubmeister! You only went back a few days. You could have gone back a month...or even a year...or five.....Oh yeah, that would have been an awfully long post...probably too long.

Thanks for saving the space....GREAT POST!
