6. He's right! Bush is a miserable failure!
He's a mediocrity who thinks he is a great historical figure.

And he has earned his place in the history books as the biggest fuckup the world has ever seen.

10. Who the hell is in charge of anything in DC?
Edited on Fri May-06-05 05:53 PM by Malva Zebrina
He has just come off a snake oil tour to sell his product that will kill many of his own people, just come off a vacation in Crawford where he chain sawed who knows what, and all we saw of him was his scripted and canned snake oil speeches and himself holding hands and kissing a Saudi, and Laura the lewd bimbo snarking him with bawdy jokes about milking a horse's penis. This is what they have sunk to.

Now he is galavanting around in Europe. Who the hell is paying for this and how much is it costing us for this dumbassed jerk to go about as if he is some brilliant foreign policy expert, a "war president" who thinks he is brilliant because he invaded defenseless Iraq on lies and murdered hundreds of thousands of innocents.

Condi is also galavanting about on our money, telling the rest of the world that what they are doing is wrong and they had better shape up to imitate America, or else. She is being played by the rest of the world also and is making a damn fool of herself no matter what her verbal talent to spin.

This is how he runs the government? In abstentia? No wonder he is such a loser. If you are not there to run things, how can you be aware of anything?

Good for Harry Reid

22. What's the 'A' in Rummy for?
It's the little Hitler as French Field Marshal Foch. What a turd. Killed hundreds of thousands of his own people. Just like Foche.

BTW: Your work really is tops, Swampy! I rip it off, liberally.

37. ah--"new" Europe
maybe he'll get a better welcome there--they are desperate for credibility, and for them ANY president is a first!

Sorry it had to be a pretender, Latvia--you deserve better.

16. He doesn't represent me.
He represents the executive federal branch of the government and ths US armed forces, that's it.

He is a loser, and a criminal and a terrorist and a fascist. We all know these things though.

23. He is a loser. This wartime president, with a majority in both houses
can't even get enough support to pass the legislation he is pushing.

What else would you call someone who controls everything but can't do anything?

Edited on Fri May-06-05 07:10 PM by cat_girl25
he feels. I didn't agree with repukes calling President Clinton names, so that's why I don't agree with it Democrats calling repukes names.

p.s. Bush is a loser though.:-)

36. *, Sr.
Reid was extremely careful to contrast his remarks by first saying that he respected *, Sr. Although many DU threads vilify *, Sr as being he who spawned the evil, we tend to forget that Sr. did serve when asked, was an intellectual, served a variety of posts, had the common sense to stop short of taking over Iraq, and (despite previous promises and his own political beliefs) had the balls to save the dollar by closing military bases and enacting the (up to that point) largest tax increase in US history. It's true that the patriarch and other members of the BFEE always seem to show up at the most inopportune times (having dinner with Hinkley's parents the night before Reagan's near-assassination, calling in a threat on the President's life shortly before Kennedy was shot, entertaining the bin Ladens right before 9/11, etc), but *, Sr. was a man of principal who risked (and lost) his re-election for the good of the Republic.

I don't think Reid's comments were inappropriate given the gravity of our current situation. Nor do I feel they were accidental. He must be pretty optimistic that the opposition has nothing with which to blackmail him. It will be interesting to see how (or even IF) the media treats this. I might just watch the news tonight.

You're right, Cat Girl, responsible politicians should not speak this way of the opposition, but Reid's timing and the way he phrased his criticism might just end this game of 'the Emperor's new clothes.'

45. Clinton didnt steal an election
let alone two of them, lie about going into war resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands, rob the treasury into record deficits, use cronyism to bully americans, reject the will of the american people and call us "focus groups" or mangle the english language so badly that the world gets embarassed when he opens his gob et al.

No comparison between the two. Bush is a loser like this planet has never seen. Since he doesn't read the papers, he'll have to hear it from those closest to him. I echo the sentiment from my rooftop. fuck whoever it offends. the truth is the truth.

he puts that one up.

Didn't see a thing over there about Waynesville Baptist Church or the Downing Street Memo/Minutes.
