Insanity: Bush wanted to rape Bin Laden if he caught him

[n2doc]

or so the story goes:

A few months ago a book called Ariel Sharon: An Intimate Portrait came out. It’s by the late Uri Dan, who was Sharon’s longtime confidant/bootlicker. It sounds like it’s worth skimming, at least for these two parts:

From a new review in Ha’aretz:

Speaking of George Bush, with whom Sharon developed a very close relationship, Uri Dan recalls that Sharon’s delicacy made him reluctant to repeat what the president had told him when they discussed Osama bin Laden. Finally he relented. And here is what the leader of the Western world, valiant warrior in the battle of cultures, promised to do to bin Laden if he caught him: “I will screw him in the ass!”

figure of speech, I know, but what kind of person says this kind of thing to another leader? This kind:
previous insanity from our Dear Leader...

Bush Kicks Sanity's Motherfucking Ass
Here's yet more from Hubris by Michael Isikoff and David Corn. According to Hubris, this exchange took place during a May 1, 2002 meeting between Bush, Ari Fleischer, and Adam Levine (who worked for Fleischer):

As Fleischer recounted for the president, Bush's mood changed, according to Levine. He grew grim and determined—steely. Out of nowhere, he unleashed a stream of expletives.
"Did you tell her I don't like motherfuckers who gas their own people?" the president snapped.

"Did you tell her I don't like assholes who lie to the world?"

"Did you tell her I'm going to kick his sorry motherfucking ass all over the Mideast?"

If I were teaching a course called "Insane World Leaders: 1945-2006," I'd devote at least two classes to this. There's a lot you could say about it, but my favorite parts are:

1. Bush's belief he somehow was personally "going to kick sorry motherfucking ass." I guess I missed the part where Bush parachuted into Iraq and went mano-y-mano with Saddam and bested him in a round of Extreme Kickboxing.

Speaking of which, before the war Iraqi Vice President Taha Yassin Ramadan picked up on Bush's weirdly personal animus and suggested that he and Saddam fight a duel. "In this way," he said, "we are saving the American and Iraqi people." The White House scoffed at this preposterous notion. I suspect this was because Bush is so incredibly manly it wouldn't be a fair fight.

2. Bush, Fleischer and Levine were meeting to discuss an upcoming History Channel interview of Bush about similarities between him and Reagan. According to Hubris, on a pre-brief memo Bush had scrawled such phrases as "moral clarity."

I assume it was this moral clarity that led Reagan to help motherfuckers gas their own people. Reagan's moral clarity also led him to "lie to the world" and claim the Soviet Union was using chemical weapons in Afghanistan—at exactly the same moment he was assisting Saddam do it in Iraq.

After discussing this, my class would take a short break so we could all lie down and try to come to terms with the fact this planet is run by motherfucking lunatics.

1. "Did you tell her I don't like assholes who lie to the world?"

Hmmm :eyes:

2. Also seems Bush has a lot of sexual repression.

But his desire for sex with Bin Laden answers some questions about Bush's sexual leanings.

3. Well, that's sorta what happened

I'm tempted to link the "honeymoon" photo of the chimpette and Osama but the last time I did the mods had it deleted in about 60 seconds. So, three years later, this will have to do:

7. ROFLMAO. That is hilarious! lol

4. Great Presidential Quotations

Jefferson “We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal.”

Lincoln “ that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

FDR “There is nothing to fear but fear itself.”

Kennedy “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for you country.”

Shrub “I will screw him in the ass!”

5. There is so much homoerotic stuff coming out of this bunch

that I often find myself wondering if the White House and half of Congress haven't been turned into a giant closet. Think of the favorite pastimes at Abu Ghraib, Gannon/Guckert's exalted position in the press corps, the utter lack of commentary on obvious gay shenanigans from the televangelist crowd, and the obvious overcompensation practiced by all those "men's men" in our government in their manly pursuits outside the office. Hell, even calling their dreams of escalating the Iraq conflict into a region wide destabilization a "SURGE" has odd sexual connotations.

There is nothing sicker, IMO, than a closeted homophobe who is overcompensating. They're characterized by misogyny, clannishness, repression, oppression, and generally trying to create a world in which they never have to confront who they really are, which means controlling US.

J. Edgar Hoover, Roy Cohn, Lamebawl, and now Stupid. Are we finally seeing a pattern here?

(Note for the slow: this is not an antigay post. This is an anti closeted, self loathing, homophobe post)

6. This country is nothing but one big video game for monkeyboy...

it's like he's a little child behind the controls blowing up little mythical monsters that are chasing him through some fantastical world. Sad, really very tragically sad for us and for the rest of the world.

[Ganja Ninja]

8. Actually he didn't say rape and ...

it's not technically. It's not rape unless Osama objects to it. Maybe George has a thing for tall swarthy bearded men.:loveya:

11. That quotation wasn't meant LITERALLY

and everyone on this thread with two brain cells to rub together and an ounce of intellectual honesty knows it.

Just stop.

[LostinVA]

13. Agreed -- this is silly and offensive

[JackBeck]

14. And the childish, playground antics continue.

This is getting old.

9. To Bush the world is an after-school fight in the park...

This reminds me of junior high with its small, but significant number of bullies who look for unsuspecting targets to taunt into a fight after school in the park across the street.

First it begins as an incident in the hall: usually the bully kicks the books out of the hand of someone hurrying to class. Then, if that student objects, the bully ratchets up the altercation with a few choice statements calling into dispute the student's heritage followed by an invitation to meet him in the park after school.

Much of this drama is punctuated with the utterances highlighted in the OP.

The bullies disappeared after junior high...farmed out to alternative high schools, I guess, or jail. I thought I had finally seen the last of them 40 years ago. Now I see at least one of them made it to the White House.

10. He is just a sick puppy the rich elite are using

to run the government. How disgusting for him to say those things.

12. But where is Rudolph and the rest of the team?

It is a nice site. Thanks.
