Bush: "If I were Hezbollah, I'd be claiming victory too."

[BurtWorm]

BUSH: First of all, you know, if I were Hezbollah, I'd be claiming victory too. But the people around the region and the world need to take a step back and recognize that Hezbollah's action created a very strong reaction that unfortunately caused some people to lose their lives, innocent people to lose their lives.

BUSH: But on the other hand, it was Hezbollah that caused the destruction.

...

BUSH: A group of ideologues, by the way, who use terror to achieve an objective -- this is the challenge.

[evox]

9. He's so dumb

So if he was Hezbollah, then they are right to claim victory, but because he isn't Hezbollah, then they are wrong to claim victory?

[Pierre Trudeau]

10. he's absolutely correct on one point...

BUSH: A group of ideologues, by the way, who use terror to achieve an objective -- this is the challenge.

[WinkyDink]

15. He always reveals the truth about himself and his motives.

It's part of his psychopathy.

[DoYouEverWonder]

11. Would someone please stuff a sock in his mouth?

I can't stand it anymore.

[Ilsa]

12. The reporter on BBC World NEws just said that Bush...

"sounded defensive" over the War on Terror and Iraq and what has happened in Southern Lebanon.

[WinkyDink]

14. He NEVER says "die". He ALWAYS says "lose...life", as if it is simply

another possession that he, egalitarian that he is, "recognizes" that we all "own".

Prove me wrong.
