[BleedingHeartPatriot]

205. Yep, you heard that right. A Koresh-like statement.

MKJ

[derby378]

73. Does this speech have anything resembling a point?

He's talking about how we must recognize that Iraq "is the central front on the war on terror."

Didn't believe it back in 2003; what makes him think I'm gonna believe it now?

[HereSince1628]

He'll slip the big news in during the last few graphs...

meanwhile enjoy him making a public speaking ass of his-selfs.

[derby378]

Someone please wake me when he rests his finger on the "nucular" button and mutters "Tell me when, Lord..."

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

104. Well, now he's providing psychoanalysis of suicide bombers...

As well as explaining how they plan their attacks.

And, yet, he doesn't mention how us bombing the hell out of their families might just piss them off a little bit. MKJ

[HeeBGBz]

75. Did he just say he was fanatical and extreme?

I think he did.

[rodeodance]

83. "we must stop them before their crimes multiply"--he is talking of himself

[JohnnyBoots]

89. "Culture of Victimization, where violence is always the answer," isn't

that our Modus Operandi?

[etherealtruth]

77. I can't listen any more ...

He is an IMBECILE

[buzzard]

98. I just shut him off as well he is embarrassing to listen to.n/t

[etherealtruth]

[highplainsdem]

97. Syria and Iran are "helpers and enablers" of terrorists.

[rodeodance]

106. some speechwriter inserted some history here (namedropper).

[HereSince1628]

[tgnyc]

100. Elements of the Arab media incite hatred

[leftchick]

101. "evil men obsessed with ambition"!!!!

[shadowknows69]

114. oh no he didn't just mention the crusades again

That'll go over good with the Arab world.

[tgnyc]

112. Russia wasn't down with the war, but they got hit by terrorists too.

[shadowknows69]

126. CSPAN just cut

to a whole group of people not applauding

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

115. OMG, that is the most circular, goofy logic yet.

Some say our presence in Iraq is increasing terrorism, but, just remember we weren't in Iraq on 9/11...:wtf: MKJ

[The Witch]

117. We weren't in Iraq on September 11 but Al Qaeda attacked us anyway

And therefore we went in and made it worse, you giant honking DOUCHEBAG!!!!

HIT THE DECK!!

[halobeam]

There it is!.... You called that one.

[HereSince1628]

That means he's remembered his memes and got them out.

Usually that also means he's just engaged in what he thinks is a clever catapulting of the propaganda

[Walt Starr]

128. Are we ever going to get a new episode in this show?

Why do they keep showing the same episode over and over and over?

[Ilsa]

129. He says terrorism isn't our fault. We weren't in Iraq on 9-11.

We will have total and complete victory.

[shadowknows69]

[Fridays Child]

130. Amazing how he describes his own behavior.

[msanthrope]

139. "When 25 Iraqi children are killed in a bombing, that's murder."

[TahitiNut]

162. Yes. He's admitting the the US has murdered Iraqis.

Absolutely EVERYTHING he ascribes to the "terrirists" are behaviors he's guilty of. Sheer projection. He's an abominable sociopath. Deluded. Insane.

[JohnnyBoots]

168. Whose bomb, ours or theirs, is the real question

[Ilsa]

141. Telling stories about those evil ones. They kill people.

They are murderers. Making an emotional plea instead of a political plea. Nothing new. They are enemies of humanity.

[bluedog]

163. thought this was suppose to be a "detailed" speech.....

this is the same ol shit he always sprews.......the media were deceived into thinking he was going into detail about the troops numbers and such.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

164. I'm confused. He sounds like he's describing himself and his admin.

Keeping people powerless..

Rich and elite rulers sending the poor to die for their profit, but "dont go along for the ride".

Forcing a religious doctrine onto the population, which tells them what they can and cannot do...

It's confusing cuz he says that's a bad thing. :shrug:

[leftchick]

I keep hearing someone start to clap when he isn't ready

has happened several times. Must not be able to see the applause light.

[pdxmom]

169. The ideology of extremisn he's jabbering about sounds more

like the religious right's ideology in this country than Communism.

[TroglodyteScholar]

Several mentions of communism...

I know he's trying to make himself Reganesque...but how long before he's substituting "liberalism" for "communism" in these nonsensical self-indulgent displays?

[tgnyc]

172. We're reforming and reorganizing our governement to fight terrorism

[HereSince1628]

185. Yeah, police state with the military in charge of everything,

174. Free peoples? I thought people was plural???? lol!

[junkiebrewster]

175. Once again proves...

republicans are the masters of projection.

[leveymg]

178. I get it now. When he does make an important speech, he doesn't want

anyone to see it except the WH staff. So, he's deterring further coverage.

[tgnyc]

179. "We will deny WMD to oultaw regimes and their allies"

[HereSince1628]

190. Hmm Ritter says Bush plans to bomb Iran...maybe this is the news

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

180. Their ax of murder...n/t

[converted_democrat]

186. I just accidentally broke a $1500.00 T.V. set over this speech.....

I was walking by the T.V. and my father in law said something about Bush. I went use my T.V. controller to point to *'s jaw, to show him the "coke jaw." The controller slipped out of my hand and into the screen. My husband is going to be pissed tonight when he gets home.

[The Witch]

188. This'd be unbearable without you guys, thanks!

:grouphug:

[Fridays Child]

198. Time for a new thread.

This is getting long. :)

[highplainsdem]

210. I think he's near the end of the speech.

[rodeodance]

200. lots of his usual jarjonism--just rephased--Will the media notice this?

150 jellybeans
300 enemies

BLAH BLAH

[Cocoa]

195. Bush cues the audience to applaud

:rofl:

[Sydnie]

196. "equally guilty of terra" .. then Cuba must think that of us

When will Castro occupy us?

[highplainsdem]

197. "Syria and Iran...deserve no patience."

Those who harbor terrorists are "equally guilty of murder."

Even weaker applause then. Doesn't sound as if the audience is eager for the moron-in-chief to go to war against Syria and Iran.

[shadowknows69]

203. leaving behind iraqi units?

one of your generals just came out and said you only had about 500 of them

[KyndCulture]

204. He's really gonna do it, he's gonna ask permission to invade Iran!

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

220. It's just that they argue via car bombs and suicide bombers...

otherwise, it's just like a democracy! MKJ

[gumby]

224. Suicide bombings sure are harsh arguments!

This speech sux... Big Time.

[CanOfWhoopAss]

232. Think they have applause signs like on Letterman and Lenno?

[Fridays Child]

242. Operatives in the audience are starting the applause.

[highplainsdem]

218. "Democracy, when it grows, is not a fragile flower. It is a healthy,

[charlie]

227. Fitting that he's yammering at the NED

That tax-funded slushfund for buying overseas elections. Enjoying the speech, Mr. Dick "Rose Garden" Gephardt?

[CanOfWhoopAss]

228. Still a sh!tty orator so he doesn't lip sync his speeches yet. nt

[pdxmom]

233. This is so bereft of logic. He's counting on the ignorance of

the American people regarding geopolitics.

You can't take on an "ideology" with a war. Look at what happened when we tried that in Korea and Viet Nam. Communism still hasn't been "defeated". It's out there. It's up to the people of the country itself to change ideologies.

Please don't let the MSM give him a pass on this! They've got to put this in context and point out the flaws. I'm sick to my stomach listening to him try to scare us into compliance. This is rhetorical terrorism.

238. Major Speech.... pfffft

This is just a highlight reel of the last 4 years. One note stretched into heroic sized bombast.

[Oreo]

250. Same old same old...

Did we expect anything less?

They were saying that there were going to be specific strategeries announced. Instead, we hear the same BS we've heard for 3 years.

[sinkingfeeling]

243. So the great 'new Iraq strategy speech' is really just a 3 year-old

rerun of 'My Favorite Moron'?

[dogday]

244. didn't he just describe himself as a tyrant?

[shadowknows69]

248. pretty much

[tgnyc]

245. Freedom, freedom, freedom!

[highplainsdem]

247. Obligatory standing ovation

Absolutely fucking meaningless.

[shadowknows69]

252. they should play the monty python or 3 stooges theme

as he leaves.

[Richard D]

249. Thank God

It's over and he didn't declare war on Iran.

[gumby]

251. CNN: speech about passion, no facts.

No Facts ... they got that right.

[highplainsdem]

253. LOL - CNN pointing out there weren't many facts in the speech.

Daryn Kagan: "I don't know how many facts there were..."

[shadowknows69]

255. well that's because you've never

bothered to make them burden themselves with facts.

[distantearlywarning]

256. I can't believe I just watched this pile of crap.

This man is a hypocrite and a liar, and he needs to go.

[highplainsdem]
