What does W mean when he says, "it's all been WORTH it"?
Now we know what he means, the worth is the money he and his pals are raking in, that's why all these dead people are worth it.

"It's worth it", he said several times this week regarding HIS war, it's worth it.

Worth the two thousand five hundred soldiers who will never celebrate father's day, worth it, the 20,000 G.I.'s with missing limbs and eyes and flesh.

Worth it. What an obscene way of wording it. Worth it.

2. I hate to pull out the "Twins" card but...
Edited on Sun Jun-18-06 01:50 PM by TAPat
would it be "worth it" if they had gone and been killed or maimed or seriously mentally screwed?
It makes me sick, but I think the answer would still be yes because he and his buddies have MOUNTAINS of $$$$$
He is a f***ing heartless, sociopathic, worthless piece of shit.

edit: Reply 1 beat me to it!

5. His friends at Halliburton are getting richer by the day
If nothing else that has made it all worth it for bu$h.
Other ways he may feel it worth while is his ability to run America into eventual bankruptcy and more over his supreme powers that he has extolled upon himself. Since he now considers himself above all law. Sure it is worth it "for him."

6. It's not just business, it's personal.
To see the thing in the White House guffaw at his 29% approval rating is to be fearful and baffled, since no normal politician or even normal human being would react that way to such sweeping disapproval. So I had to wonder why.

And with the feverish clarity that comes to the casually dispossessed, the answer came: He's laughing at the 70% of us who can't stand him.

He's laughing because he stole office twice and no one of any import ever said much less did anything about it. He's laughing about the inside job he and his cronies pulled off on 9-11.

He's laughing about the dead American soldiers piled up in Iraq. He's laughing at their mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers.

He's laughing about the torture. He's laughing about the anthrax he had his junta unload on Democratic congressional leaders and disobedient journalists.

11. he's laughing because of the big con
always an inside joke, Like Let Freedom reign, Freedom doesn't reign it
is with the consent of the people; only monarchs reign. He's always telling us up is down
and down is up. That's why he's laughing.

8. i guess to him it's worth it, he hasn't made any sacrifices, he has no
skin in the game, he's like a gambler thats playing with other peoples money, in short it doesn't matter to him what the outcome is.

9. It's hard for these people to think what they're doing is wrong
... when the rewards are so great. :shrug: All we're missing is another Charles Dickens to portray the times.

13. All the lying, cheating, and stealing
has been worth it so he can send thousands to die for Middle East instabilty and the chance to get their hands on that oil.

17. I don't think he said that because it helped line his pockets.
I honestly think he gets a high out of being able to put people to death. Like he used to get when he killed animals when he was a kid. And when he laughed at people being put to death when he was governor. I think it just gives him a buzz, being able to control life and death.

18. Six of one, half a dozen of the other. He loves 'em both. This guy's a
money grubbing SOB just like the rest of the family. And always remember, patriotism is not their strong part. (Think Prescott Bush)

21. He means
"I've gained power, oodles of money, control over a crapload of oil and all other kinds of great stuff without risking myself or anybody I care about. It's all been worth it."

22. He's not living the "war" - that's why he can say it's worth it
with a smirk on his face.

He's never feared the phone ringing...the doorbell ringing. He's never been paralyzed by the sight of an "official" vehicle going in slow motion down the street, heading his way.

The dead, dying and maimed mean nothing to him.
