1. Chimpy sez he had to invade because Saddam refused to let inspectors in!
Edited on Tue Mar-21-06 12:04 PM by grytpype
And when he {Saddam} chose to deny the inspectors, when he chose not to disclose, then I had the difficult decision to make to remove him. And we did. And the world is safer for it.

Holy moly! When is someone in the MSM going to call him on that lie? The inspectors were in country and couldn't find any WMD... they had to run for their lives when Bush started the bombardment!

2. Chimpy sez he would pull out of Iraq if he didn't have a plan for victory!
Secondly, I am confident -- or I believe; I'm optimistic -- we'll succeed. If not, I'd pull our troops out. If I didn't believe we had a plan for victory, I wouldn't leave our people in harm's way. And that's important for the woman to understand.

3. He's jumped the shark for them. The primaries for 08 are being ramped up
and they're so ready to suck up to the next "leader" they are anointing.

kill."

Is that stupid or what!!!!!!

That is such a stupid statement.

You have people in America who like to kill.

So basically, we are battling thousands of "psychopaths."

8. "...we've got a strategy for victory."
Edited on Tue Mar-21-06 12:14 PM by sakabatou
WHAT'S THE FUCKING STARTEGY?!

And where the Hell is he getting these numbers?

Economic growth 3.5 percent.

"...the economy has added nearly 5 million new jobs." Filled by Americans? Who are these jobs filled by?

"The national unemployment rate is 4.8 percent. That's lower than the average rate of the 1970s and the 1980s and the 1990s." Is this true. But then again, if you don't proclaim yourself as unemployed, you're not counted.

"Productivity is strong. Inflation is contained. Household net worth is at an all-time high. Real after-tax income is up more than 8 percent per person since the beginning of 2001." But product prices have also inflated, George. People still can't afford neccesities.

10. Do you think he knows now, how to fight
for his life even if just his political life?
I think he is fighting for a big power play that will secure the corp interests he represents. Will it keep us secure. I don't see it. Will he snow the less suspicious?
Probably, but he has pulled those strings so many times and been caught in deception so many times that most disappointed americans will be unable to turn to his words. They must,instead consider his deeds.
They must turn him out. He has lost his credibility "capital".

There is no US in CORPORATE WORLD!

12. Has anyone else noticed his
attitude change lately? He was looking almost depressed, defeated & lost. Now he seems pissy, arrogant & imperious again. That bothers me.

13. Bush
Edited on Tue Mar-21-06 01:20 PM by enid602
I liked it when he tried to rationalize attacking other countries to promote democracy because 'democratic countries tend not to (wage) war.' Is he kidding? BTW, looked like someone got him with a hot poker just above his left eye.
