Has anyone seen this Bushism?

[iceman_419]

Newsweek reported that Bush, appearing before a right-to-life rally in Tampa, Florida on June 17, stated:

"We must always remember that all human beings begin life as a feces. A feces is a living being in the eyes of God, who has endowed that feces with all of the rights and God-given blessings of any other human being."

Newsweek commented that "The audience listened in disbelief as the President repeated his error at least a dozen times, before realizing that he had used the word 'feces' when he meant to say 'fetus'."

Bush has solidified himself as the dumbest man in the world, if this quote is true. Have you guys heard about it?

5. Until Bush definitively disowns the SBL'T' ads, I agree with you.

Anything the public accepts about Bush, true or not, as long as it hurts him, goes.

6. Reply

I think you would be quite irate at anybody making that statement about Kerry! Let's keep it honest.

7. Some people deserve worse than others.

Of course I'd be irate if someone said that about Kerry. But Bush actually deserves a ton of his own sick medicine. It won't cure him, but he deserves it anyway.

8. "The audience listened in disbelief" -- that tells you it's a hoax

a REAL bush audience would have just gone along and applauded and not even blinked an eye.
