LETS PLAY THE MISQUOTE GAME

[LSK]

Seeing how the RNC can cut and paste an interview from Wilson to make him appear to say things that he did not (http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/week_2005_07_10.php#006082), lets do the same thing to Bush.

Here is a link to the 2003 State of The Union address.
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2003/01/20030128-19.html
Using only words that he said in that address, lets misquote him!!!

My 1st few attempts:

"Mr. Speaker, members of Congress, distinguished citizens and fellow citizens: we have the duty to employ every man and woman who seeks terrorist attacks, corporate scandals and stock market declines.

Our plan will improve the bottom line for the shareholder to boost investor confidence. Lower investment will help our government deficit growth.

Federal spending should rise faster than A growing economy."

1. another example

"Affordable health care for all Americans is too much commitment. Seniors with the current Medicare system should keep their coverage. I urge the members of this new Congress to act To improve the higher cost. Everybody pays more for health care."

2. How about ...

I am the dictator who is assembling the world's most dangerous weapons. America is making a broad and determined effort to dominate the weak and intimidate the world. We continue the ambitions of Hitlerism; a government that represses its people, pursues weapons of mass destruction, and supports terror. I am instructing the leaders of the FBI, the CIA, the Homeland Security, and the Department of Defense to develop blackmail, terror, and mass murder; terrible threats to the civilized world.

Our intelligence sources tell us, “Terrorist, terrorism, terror, terrorists, terrorist, terrorists, terrorists, terrorism, terrorists, terrorist, terror, terror, terror, terrorist, terror, terror, terrorism, terrorists, terrorists, terrorist, terrorists, terrorist.”

Whatever action is required, whenever action is necessary, I will defend a scattered network of killers. Vice President Cheney fights reluctantly, because before September the 11th he was the object of a partial-birth abortion. (Applause.)

I ask you to set a high standard for humanity, and pass a law against a culture that values every life. Sending Americans -- boys and girls -- into battle is considered a death sentence, and you never think it could be you. A child born today will be killed, along with their families. Let's put it this way: since September the 11th, we can't help you. Go home and die.

3. Bush on CAFTA

"Central American companies need to buy our product. And the best way to do it is to get rid of US-made yarn."

"We can get rid of the more competitive."

This is kind of fun.

4. *LOL* If I wasn't so tired, I'd play that game.

I am sure his spokesperson, Scotty, has many "misquotes". Oh, hell, you know that Rummy proferred lots of good stuff. And, Cheney,...OMFG,...I just KNOW we could pull LOTS of stuff from him.

Amazing that they work so hard at wielding so much bullshit. My heart and mind simply doesn't work that way.

5. Bushflash had the best example of that a long time ago

A well-edited speech to make him sound like the bloody monster that he is.
