Bush* bullhorn moment
Everybody says this was Bush*'s defining moment. The moment he officially became America's Leader. He stood there in front of all and spoke how America would answer back. We would either bring those that caused this disaster to justice or bring justice to them. So how is that justice thingy going anyway? Who has been brought to justice that caused 9-11 to occur? It has been five long years now..We have killed a whole bunch of Iraqi women and children. Has justice been served?

1. Why must you politicize by demanding substance on a day when...
...we should all be obediently celebrating a great photo opportunity?

3. And the State Dept. criticized Nasrallah for 'standing on rubble'.
And making statements about his vision while doing so.

(No really, they did. If anyone forgets, Nasrallah = Hezbollah's leader)

5. If you had just "hit the trifecta" you'd want to ...
stand on the rubble and shout too.

6. Funny how a "defining moment" can tarnish so fast.
Listen to what he says, those words now ring hollow without OBL behind bars after 5 long years of war.

7. He wasn't exactly eloquent
"I can hear you. The rest of the world hears you. And the people who knocked down these buildings will hear all of us soon."

Imagine what JFK would have said.

8. I remember wincing at the simplistic, uninspiring rhetoric.
My opinion of gwb from his illegal grab of the WH to today has been unwavering.

He's a tool, and will always be a tool. MKJ
