Excerpts of stupid things Bush said:

" Um, I also saw a poll where it said by far the vast majority of the Iraqis believe the world is getting better." - But I thought he didn't pay attention to polls?

" Um, I think when it’s all said and done, the Iraqis are going to look back and say thank God for America." - Thank GOD? Note the utter denial.

"O’REILLY: No I understand that. But you, to this day, don’t know what happened to his chemical weapons. He didn't tell us, and, and,

PRESIDENT BUSH: No. Not yet.

O’REILLY: He hasn’t given us much, has he?

PRESIDENT BUSH: No, he, well he doesn’t have anything, you know, doesn’t have anything to, to gain by giving us much, I mean, he’s, he’s going to go on trial, and the Iraqis will lay out a case, and, you know, I mean, why would he, why would he tell the truth?" - Still hanging on to the WMD theory, Mr Bush? Jesus.

"O’REILLY: This is really a tough one.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Okay. [chuckles]

O’REILLY: Iran. Uh, said yesterday, hey, we’re going to develop this nuclear stuff, we don’t care what you think. You ready to use military force against Iran if they continue to defy the world on nuclear?

PRESIDENT BUSH: My hope is that we can solve this diplomatically.

O’REILLY: But if you can’t.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Well, let me try to solve it diplomatically first. All options are on the table, of course, in any situation. But diplomacy is the first option.[/quote] - WTF? NOW he wants to try diplomacy?

And you have to read Bush's comments on illegal immigrants from Mexico yourself. Unbelieveable.

Part 2 and 3 on tuesday and wednesday. Um, on Fox site, not in this thread.
 
So do you actually have an argument to make, or are you just going to post quotes followed by saracstic comments?

If anyone in the US deserves to be MST3K'd, its the president (especially being interviewed by that bastion of intellect Bill O'Reilly). Dorian doesn't need a point nor should you expect one.

I guess if Dorian had actually been funny or witty it might have been better received....

If you want funny, watch the Daily Show.

Here's a challenge Art, make your own lampoon of the interview.
 
Tu quoque, Art. He advocates opening our borders to massive immigration, is still trying to float the WMD theory, lies about his interest in polls, and has taken a sudden and uncharacteristic interest in diplomacy. That's an idiotic and security-threatening move, abject denial, lies and misleading for political gain, if you're keeping score.
 
He is doing the election dance.

Double-edge sword, that thing is. It forces the leadership to compromise its vision for the sake of the polls.

Not that the vision was all that clear going into this mess in Iraq.
 
All ya'all gotta do now is believe that Kerry will fix things when you vote for him.

Unless I'm mistaken (and I watched the interview) this was in a reply to another poll. This shows how polls can be misleading or unreliable.

" Um, I think when it’s all said and done, the Iraqis are going to look back and say thank God for America." - Thank GOD? Note the utter denial.

Purely a figure of speach. Not to be taken litterally.

PRESIDENT BUSH: No, he, well he doesn’t have anything, you know, doesn’t have anything to, to gain by giving us much, I mean, he’s, he’s going to go on trial, and the Iraqis will lay out a case, and, you know, I mean, why would he, why would he tell the truth?" - Still hanging on to the WMD theory, Mr Bush? Jesus.

Tell that fantasy of yours to those that were gassed in Iran & Iraq by Saddam.

Did you miss those 16 or so violated UN resolutions? Plus, do you really think the president is going to let Iran know of his alternate plans??? Jesus Christ on a Stick!!

See how easy it is to interpret things from another point of view?
 
If I wanted to see butt-kissing I would have rented a gay porno.

Having O'Reilly interview Bush is like having Goebbels interview Hitler.
 
I am no Bush apologist. Will Ferrell pretty much sums up my view of President Bush.

However, you can't take umbrage at the president saying negotiations should be the first step in dealing with Iran. Granted, he didn't use very many negotiations with Iraq, but you can't say that the administration won't use negotiations here. Suggesting that negotiations should be the first step is appropriate.


If you want to take issue with the things President Bush said during the interview, then bring up the "Mission Accomplished" press conference that was discussed.

They have to vote for him, and he has to come from behind and win...

From the web article:

"In a Washington Post-ABC News Poll, Bush has a six-point lead over Kerry — 51 percent to 45 percent — among likely voters while independent Ralph Nader garners 1 percent. Bush's lead is seven points — 51-44 — among registered voters.

A new poll from USA Today/CNN/Gallup showed similar results. Bush leads Kerry by eight points — 52-44 — among likely voters and by 11 points — 53-42 — among all registered voters. Nader claims three percent in both cases."

I am betting that you don't.

What difference does that make? I don't listen to polls means I don't listen to polls, not I don't listen to this poll but the rest of them are okie dokie.

Purely a figure of speach. Not to be taken litterally.
You mean SPEECH? And LITERALLY? I guess I shouldn't take your alternate spellings as figures of speech? But how do you KNOW it was a figure of speech with Bush? Plus, he said 'when it's all said and done' when he knows it will NEVER be done.

Tell that fantasy of yours to those that were gassed in Iran & Iraq by Saddam.
the question was about WMDs, and Bush implied that they were STILL THERE somewhere, just that Saddam has nothing to gain by telling him where. That is utter denial.

Did you miss those 16 or so violated UN resolutions? Plus, do you really think the president is going to let Iran know of his alternate plans??? Jesus Christ on a Stick!!
Did you miss all the UN violations of OURS, plus the broken treaties, plus the subversion of the Geneva Conventions? When can we expect OUR invasion? I mean, assuming that those things are justification enough.

Oh, by the way, did you miss where Kofi Annan said that the war in Iraq was illegal?

Are you actually suggesting that diplomacy was not attempted (for years no less ) before we invaded Iraq?
I am literally saying it. Kuwait was invaded, and BAM, we invaded Iraq. Not much diplomacy there. Oh wait, did you forget about that invasion? Are you suggesting that instituting no-fly zones and sanctions against Iraq were "diplomacy"?

Can you offer any conclusive evidence that they are not there somewhere? Could Saddam have moved them (to Iran or Syria?) in the 6 months the UN spent "negotiating"?


Dorian Gray said:

Yes, I did.

Please feel free to list the UN security council resolutions the United States supposedly violated... :nope:

Or just not be as bad as Bush. (Never a bad idea to remember the middle ground.)

Spoken like a true soft-in-the-head liberal. Haven't you noticed that middle ground is as often as not a stinking, useless, swamp?

The burden of proof is on those who claimed there were WMD in Iraq, not the opposite.

Hey hammy! Where ya been?

I thought you might have been off learning how to make sense. But, no.

Not to take this thread too far off-track, but your insults are 2nd rate. Try to upgrade your act. You're embarrassing us all.
