6. Shameful admission.
I think he's sexy.

He reminds me of an unobtainable science teacher I had in grade school.......

What can I say, I'm an oddball.

2. People know that Bush is "for show only" and that he...
has no substance whatsoever. Bush will never actually act on immigration reform.

36. He especially won't come through now that he only got a two point
bounce from the speech. That's a given.

5. Someone should tell the chimp. Maybe he then would stop running
around trying to push forth his evil agenda. As if that would happen. :silly:

9. When someone has lost all credibility, no one gives a damn what
they say. Bush has been at that point with Democrats for a very long time and now he is viewed the same way by many Republicans. He can yap to his hearts content but no one is listening.

13. I agree: "Some one needs to take AF1 away from the monkey."
The Emperor flew for 5 hours to get to the border.

He stayed there for 4 hours.

It took 5 more hours to fly him back to the White House.

How much did that cost Americans in $$$$ and fuel?


    Park AF1 and IMPEACH HIM!

33. Don't you know what this fuckers angle is?
He's setting up his Haliburton boys and Bechtel to screw America some more with huge billion dollar contracts right here on the border.

That meal worm can smoke cigars with them over it down there at his Texas villa and they can laugh about it.

34. His experience in the government and his knowledge of the Repubs.
And his apparent willingness to be candid about both.

25. Gergen is a spokesman for multinational capital. He is what Jim Baker
is to the Crime Family they had entrusted with expanding their wealth and power. Chimpy and the PNAC Gang promised them the world, and has delivered shit. Now they are worried that some of that shit will blow back onto them. If you listen to Gergen, he is advising those in positions of power who know who he is and who who listen to him (including corporatist Dems) that maintaining faith in the legitimacy of the (current) governmental power structure is the key priority now. They are concerned that taking down this gang of monsters will "destabilize" the the country and expose the corporate ownership of the US state apparatus.

29. He is a whore for Daddy Warbucks.
He says what they want you to hear. He is a spokesman and an operative. He always acts to further the interests of multinational capitalism. He is neither consistent nor honest. He is their Jeff Gannon, their Goebbels. The only thing you can be sure of is that he he is telling you what they want you to believe. Nothing else.

31. Me too! I've actually thrown the remote at the TV, and have yelled
so much (not very characteristic of me)when he comes on, that my poor dog is the only thing that brings me to! She's not used to me yelling and thinks it's aimed at her, and I have to explain to her about the 'bad man' after I rescue her from under the bed. So now, it's immediate mute with no yelling!

38. The mute button doesn't do it for me.
I have to turn the entire TV off. I can't even stand the sight of Bush's face.

39. I've been hearing this alot lately
from mainstream reptiles, that chucklenutz mcchimpy* is a lame duck and has hit the high water mark. Nobody is listening any more, he's sounded the same note so often that people are sick of hearing it, geez I can't wait for November.
