:wtf:
dbt
Remember New Orleans

[ChairmanAgnostic]

1. declaring war on Iran.

Or New York.
Or Belgium.

[atreides1]

2. Probably Belgium

Iran and New York would be hard to beat!;)

[zbdent]

10. Watch your language ...

;)

[TAPat]

3. How about a war on Poverty...

Instead of a war on the Poor?

Nah!

[magellan]

4. I say it'll be war on Belgium

Bush** is out to prove he's the #1 waffler in the world.

[Botany]

22. 'bout time we did something about Belgium.

Damn them and their fancy waffles too.

BTW 10 AM presser w/ President Bat Shit Crazy? :popcorn:

[chknltl]

5. Just guessing... He is announcing that he just figured out...

"How much a Brazillion is"


sorry...I couldn't resist.


(Yes it's true...I do spend a lot of time in the Lounge)

[madinmaryland]

14. How much is a Brazillion?

:hide:

[Frustratedlady]

27. You'll Find Out When They Figure Out ....

...our actual debt load.

[dbt]

6. Scarborough was all over the JCS thing last night.

He and Buchanan were pretty shrill over bu$h being "isolated" on his Iraq policy. Is this news "conference" just damage control about that? Will he simply stamp his little ape foot and remind us all again that he's the Deciderer?

:shrug:

[Hubert Flottz]

8. America needs to be lied to again I guess!

Another Cheerleading for the EXXON War session.

[matcom]

9. going to tell us not to forget Poland

ever

[Efilroft Sul]

29. If only Kerry said, "Poland? Yeah, well you forgot Osama!"

Bush would have lost HUGE, and Diebold would've been unable to save him.

Such a Kerry comeback would've gone down in history as the biggest smackdown ever.

11. about eating frogs and rabbit

Iraqi soldiers eat frogs, rabbit at handover ceremony

Iraqi soldiers bit the heads off frogs and ate the heart of a rabbit as signs of courage on Wednesday at a ceremony to transfer Najaf province, home to one of Shi'ite Islam's holiest shrines, from U.S. to Iraqi control.

A U.S. general called the transfer, under a plan to gradually hand over security and allow the withdrawal of 135,000 American troops, a major step forward in strengthening the Iraqi government as it seeks to rein in sectarian violence.

Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki has said Iraqis can take over security of all Iraq's 18 provinces by June, despite doubts about capabilities and the sectarian loyalties of the army and police.

12. Overwhelming insecurity after uttering "we're not winning" and Dick for breakfast

He'll just make it clear that "we're winning and I mean it!"

[ChairmanAgnostic]

13. maybe a war on IUDs?

Oh, wait. was that IEDs or IUDs?

[neoblues]

26. Ah, the old "I've Said It, So It Must Be So" reasoning...

"We're Winning! I just know it. I can feel it. We Are! Aren't We! We're Gonna Win, no matter how much it costs or how many troops must give their all. (I can't be expected to admit failure; it's God's will--I am His instrument, I cannot be wrong--I just know it! So if you question the war, you are not only a traitor for questioning my leadership, but you are a blasphemer against God's right hand (and deserve to be cut down and burn in Hell (you Democrat Infidels))).

Seriously, why do we listen to this immature, delusional, greedy, corrupt, deceitful/dishonest, self-serving little imbecile? Has he not disqualified himself by his very claim to greatness--not to mention the thousands of false, foolish, wrong, disasterous decisions and actions he's already committed? I know, I know... it's because he still holds the Office of The President.

It's worth noting: he's proof positive that just because someone happens to hold an awesome office or title or position (even unto "Leader of the Free World"--it doesn't mean they're even as good, qualified, intelligent, capable or deserving as you yourself are (even if you don't consider yourself exceptional in any way). So never again should you be intimidated or in awe of someone (if you ever have been) because of someone's position, unless they've shown they earned it and really are exceptional.

[momster]

15. WP reports Bush says 'we're not winning in Iraq'

he wants to go before the nation to explain that when he said that he meant 'we're winning in Iraq."

[bigscott]

17. sectarian violence gets my vote

just yesterday the sectary from the office down the hall and the sectary in my office got into a nasty fight:spank:

[AndyA]

16. Who could have possibly predicted we wouldn't win in Iraq?

After all, it was for a good cause, the fight against terrorism.

Of course, you must forget the fact that there was little to no terrorism in Iraq prior to the invasion. This is a new result of the war.

There was no legitimate reason to go into Iraq. Never was, and never will be. And there was no plan to ever get out.

This is a stunning example of irresponsible leadership if ever there was one. And the reason why impeachment MUST BE ON THE TABLE. Got that, Pelosi and Conyers?

[ChairmanAgnostic]

20. LOL But he needs condi to be his .er. mouthpiece.

[liberal N proud]

18. I hope he takes questions from the reporters, All I want for Christmas is a bu$h meltdown

[rodeodance]

19. What time is this newsy confer?? please

[radfringe]

21. "...not winning...not losing...not over yet..."

[Just-plain-Kathy]

23. If this were to take place at 11am

I would say it was to pre-empt Hillary on the View. (I'm pretty sure she's on today)

[HuffleClaw]

24. i expect its gonna be his petulant childish response to the WaPo headline

he'll 'clarify' his remarks, get all indignant about 'defeatism'...

he MIGHT toss iran into the mix, but it would be folly, why make the problem worse?

[GreenZoneLT]

25. Prolly announcing Khalilzad to be new U.N. ambassador

That's the hot rumor at the embassy in Baghdad.

[Philosoraptor]

28. Joy!

I can't wait! I've developed a grim pleasure from watching him degenerate into madness.

[valerief]

30. An update on Pickles' gam. nt
