If I had a military record like Bush I would be ashamed to stand up in front of a group of real soldiers and strut and preen.
Bush seems to have no sense of shame regarding anything. Caught lying about ALL the reasons for Iraq? Who cares? "I would have invaded Iraq knowing all of the reasons were false." He always makes a statement so that the public knows he has no shame. A sense of shame guides us into changing certain behaviors because we recognize they are hurting people. If Bush genuinely does not have one, it would certainly explain alot of his behavior.
The bots are so conditioned, sometimes I forget that they require maintenance for some issues like the reasons for Iraq.
Even if the BOTS don't believe it, it is still valuable in that it reminds them that they must lie for the leader to cover every lie he tells. It shows them how they should have no shame either- just like Bush and the admin. The more Bush repeats a lie, the more need there is for BOTS to defend it.
I'm crying cause he ruined a perfectly good Italian dinner for me. The jackass is crying because he knows this ain't gonna stop those free falling poll #'s.
Of course it hurts, You're getting screwed by an elephant
They'd hop in the sack with ole Bushie faster than ole Bill got a BJ from Moanica if they had half a chance. They are liars if they say they wouldn't. They get a woody just looking at the flight suit pic.

I thought that you would enjoy a replay of Tom's appearance on Oprah yesterday.

Looks like Ole Jim saw it.

Probably all Republicans. When the President speaks about a war going on, you would expect a higher postive percentage. Me, I'm off to a BB, I feel all slimy having watched and listened to the fool for 25 minutes. Be back ina short.

CNN Poll on Bush's spew = 46% positive reaction from the Sheeple
We are DOOMED
46% might not be so bad. Bush gave us the same old spew we've heard from day one. Nothing new or contraversial. The number might indicate that more than half the people thought it was total bullshit and 46% thought it was the same crap they always hear. It really depends on the exact wording of the question.

From AmericaBlog:
ABC's Terry Moran just reported that the only time Bush got applause was in the middle of his speech when a White House advance team member started clapping all on their own in order to cajole the soldiers into clapping, which they dutifully did.
So even the applause was fake.

Geesh you could tell the applause wasnt exactly 'spirited'.. Paula Zahn said there was 6 references to 9/11 .. and I wonder how many times he said "work".. what IS up with that? I wonder who on earth came up with that.. it is so stupid.
"I've coined new words, like, "misunderstanding" and "Hispanically"." - GW Bush
The media has been on board cheerleading Bush's big "save my approval ratings" speech all day. CNN has been pounding the table on all the positive developments in Iraq. Not hearing much about the big Chinook that went down in Afghanistan today though, and the story of all the female marines that were killed over the weekend was dropped like a hot potato. The situation is even worse than we think it is and the nitwit is up there taking bows for the progress. Maybe we are doomed.
Bush does appear to be under control. Never has a President changed so much between his 1st election and his actions in office. Recently, Carter, Reagan, Bush and Clinton conducted themselves in office as the public expected their behavior matched their campaign rhetoric, for the most part.
Then we have Bush- a lifelong moderate conservative in his father's vein. A lifetime of political beliefs cannot be changed at his age- and certainly not so many in such a short period of time.
Bush was a conservative, got into office and became a Marxist, so much so that he even attacks the middle class. Bush was an isolationist, opposed to the Kosovo 'war' for example, then became an interventionist committed to building an American Empire. Bush favored a border with Mexico as gov of Texas and increased funding for BP, then as Pres calls for open borders, basically an end to US sovereignty with his extreme globalism, and fights to cut funding for BP- or at least reduce it to less than Congress suggested.
As a conservative, Bush must have believed in the philosophy of the founding fathers regarding the individual. But when he gets into office, he does all he can to advance a police state and take away rights individuals have had in the US for 100's of years.
That's just for starters. The question is How could Bush change his positions on so many issues this late in his life? Carter, Reagan, Bush and Clinton didn't.
I'm completely baffled by Bush's behavior in the last few years. The idea that he is following orders received via transmitter, or that he is parroting rhetoric he is told via transmitter, almost sounds possible at this point.
Not hearing much about the big Chinook that went down in Afghanistan today though,
Maybe we are doomed.
The latest I heard on that Chinook was that the Taliban was taking credit for it falling out of the sky. The CNN reporter added that "Of course we've heard no corroboration of that from the Pentagon," as if the Pentagon would say, "Yeah, they shot it down," or something. There's a lot of circumstantial and grudging info from the Pentagon that things aren't all that peachy in Afghanistan.
I think doomed is too strong a word. I'd say that, barring a huge increase in troop levels (and in my mind it's around 250-400K more needed to really pacify Iraq) we'll need to leave Iraq, either in orderly fashion, (think Soviets from Afghanistan, 1989) or less than orderly fashion (think Saigon, 1975). Despite all the rhetoric, I think there is very little reason to believe that they really hate us for our freedoms. A pull back and a resumption of a George Washington type of policy (or a policy like William Lind has posited, a detachment from places of disorder) will cause the attacks against us to virtually cease (I think there's still possibility of attacks here, but the incentive would be largely removed.) Because they hate us because we're over there, once our presence is gone, they could go back to warring amongst themselves, like has happened since Christ was a corporal.
