I can't make sense of Bush's stated "New Year's Resolution."

[Lex]

He said today, "My thoughts are with the troops as we head into 2007. People always ask me about a New Year's resolution -- my resolution is, is that they'll be safe . . . "*

How is that even a personal New Year's Resolution in the first place?

I guess because he's been doing nothing to try to keep them safe so that he is resolving to finally do so in the new year?

Bah. His idiocy and cluelessness knows no bounds.

1. If only there were something Bush could do to make the troops safer...

Bring 'em home!

[Infinite Hope]

2. [shakes head] n/t

[acmavm]

3. That buffoon shames us all.

[Raine]

4. IDIOTIC

he won't even provide funds for body armor. x(

[DawgHouse]

5. Okay. Then my resolution is that everyone in the world have plenty to eat.

Make it so. :shrug:

[Lex]

7. Exactly.

I mean, :wtf:

What an utter idiot he is.

[EstimatedProphet]

6. You mean he'll do something to keep them safe? He'll never keep that one!

And people say resolutions to diet are hard...

[Lex]

8. Plus a "new year's resolution" implies he's been slack about it before

which is certainly true, but why would he say it that way?

He's so stupid I can't believe he doesn't drool on himself during press conferences.

[Batgirl]

9. It's hard to find fault with this kind of policy-making.

After all, when he made his "resolution" the action figure president also took all of the following steps to ensure the safety of the troops:

Ate a green M&M.
Saw three birds on a telephone wire.
Put a watermelon seed on his forehead.
Wished on the first star he saw at night.
Threw a coin in a fountain.
Got the biggest part of the Christmas turkey wishbone.
Found a penny and wore it in his left shoe.

How much more reassurance to you need?

[Contrary1]

11. How about a pair of ruby slippers?

"There's no place like a drunken stupor, There's no place like a drunken stupor..."

[Batgirl]

15. I think you meant this

[Lex]

16. Those would look nice

with Dubya's cheerleading outfit maybe?

[BattyDem]

10. What the hell is that supposed to mean?

:shrug: :eyes:

[opihimoimoi]

12. The Abusuer, the Bully, ...he gives us "Empty Language...the Minutiae stuff,

the BS Level....its his way of controlling us....using language designed to win us over, brainwash us...trouble is: He fucked it up...came out incoherently...almost garbled babbling....

What the Hell kind of a Leader we Americans got anyways? One that confuses us so?

We are paying for our Leader to be a Leader...with Clarity and Wisdom....

Instead, we are being conned and scammed...Bush is giving us Muddy Waters and Bad Losses////

Its NOT FAIR....Bush is a PRESIDENTIAL LEMON....

[calimary]

13. My New Year's resolution (besides the weight losing part) is to keep

calling Nancy Pelosi's office, nagging to have IMPEACHMENT put back ON the table. I think I'll do that EVERY morning.

[bdamomma]

14. bush does not give a shit about those troops, it is not his ass

on the line.
