The biggest lie was the original lie
In the first election, Bush stated he was a "unifier not a divider."

I don't think there has ever been a greater lie spoken with a straight face in the modern history of our country.

He has taken his non-existent "mandate" and "political capital" and ruined this country both internally and externally.

My single greatest complaint about this stooge, false, body double President is how cowardly he is about facing his own body politic. 49, 50 or 51% of us, however you want to count it, don't exist. We aren't allowed to see him in public, he avoids press conferences, he sends out his numerous court jesters and stooges to answer questions because HE IS AFRAID OF US.

This is the man who urges others to "stay the course" and fight and die for his Oedipal struggles to prove his own manhood. I will respect George Bush a lot more the day he goes out openly in the streets of any American city to face average Americans of all political persuasions and doesn't act like Main Street is the road to the Baghdad airport.

6. He has united our enemies and divided our friends.
Not the sign of a great leader.

2. I thought "I don't believe in nation building" was the first lie.
But hey, 9-11 changed everything.

9. Hard to bring honor and dignity to the table when one is dishonorable and
undignified.
Watching that little imbecile sit on the global stage with legitimate world leaders, with his legs wide open, is just embarrassing. What the hell is it with him and his crotch? Like the stuffed codpiece when he pulled his little photo-op stunt on the aircraft carrier that was about a stone's throw from shore...
What a putrid little fuck.

4. He united the US against him
He united Iraq against him, the world against him, and now the country against him. He's a helluva uniter.

5. The first pointless lie was that Clinton's staff had trashed the WH
and stolen all the W's off of keyboards. I knew we were in trouble when they couldn't produce a shred evidence, "Just trust us, they trashed the place."
