Hmm,
When democrats slammed Rumsfeld, they were called traitors by the reich wingers. What say they about McCain?

Reich wingers may want to change the name of their party to the nazi party. They'll get more votes for the next 20 or 30 elections.

Come election time, who will be the first reich winger to say Bush was the worst President ever?

It will take years to correct the damage this administration has inflicted on this country and the world. Those of you who continue to carry water for this president despite his incompetent and myopic decisions flabbergast the hell out of me.

The people who carry water for this President represent a clear demographic:

Simple-minded people who enjoy watching red-necks racing in circles (Nascar).

And, the even louder Bush supporters fall into this sub-demographic:

Simple-minded people who enjoy watching red-necks racing in circles, but need them to go a bit slower so they can keep up with the action, (Nascar Truck series)

I see the chimp is still mugging before the cameras and spreading more of the same old ***.

Here is a sad story about what happens to our wounded troops after they return home:

This type of news is not worthy enough for the majaor news media to cover. They would have to ask the chimp if they could do a story on this subject.

CBS mis-speaks itself when, in the caption for the picture that is attached to this article, identifies today, 19 Fwebruary, as the '...annivesary of the birth...' of George Washington.

Do you idiots have your Indian exchange-student interns on duty in the press room today ? Any school child knows George's birthday is 22 February, and Abe Lincoln's was 12 February.

You should be ashamed of yourselves.

I think we've ran-up a tab of about $500 Billion in Iraq already. That's a lot of friggin money! If Congress stops funding the war - the war will end no matter what Bush wants.

"Today, we're fighting a new war to defend our liberty and our people and our way of life."

-----------

Well, George, we may be fighting a war, but it is not "to defend our liberty and our people and our way of life." It is about oil and war profiteering. It is about strategically placed military bases.

I'm sure Ike is rolling in his grave.

I think I'm gonna be sick...............

Bush is becoming more of a pathetic, desperate buffoon as time goes on. Some time ago he tried to compare his war in Iraq with WWII as though he was actually equating himself with the greatness of Churchill or Roosevelt. The problem is that most of the world who know anything about history, would probably be more likely to equate Bush with Hitler.

Now, after his war was rightfully denounced by Majority Leader Harry Reid as the worst foreign policy blunder in US history, Bush is talking about how his war resembles the Revolutionary war. Lets see, in the colonial days a large foreign power occupied and controlled what is now part of the USA. People wanted independence and fought the more powerful occupiers using mainly guerrilla style tactics and eventually won.

In Iraq, because of Bush's infinite stupidity, a large powerful nation invaded and occupied a smaller one, destroyed its economy, killed thousands of its people, tortured hundreds more, turned hundreds of thousands of people into refugees and thousands of children into orphans. Many people in Iraq stood up, against all odds, to fight a guerrilla war against a powerful foreign occupation. Part of Bush%u2019s analogy may be right, but probably not what the decider was hoping for.

Hello...want to know about *George Washington*, new book *George Washington* published by Ward Burian...George Washington was a disciplined person, he didn*t cut down a cherry tree, he was taught mathematics by a Australian *felon* who was a number wizard, Washington was SINCERE because his other teacher was a JESUIT Italian PRIEST exiled in the colonies -- Washington penned the CODE OF ETHICS, some thought he wrote them, NO IGNATIUS LOYOLA did -- Washington*s first battle was at age 19, Braddock and lots of troops died from Smallpox - Washington took command, had all future troops innoculated for small pox --Washington fought in the Revolution because the King of England DEEDED ALL LANDS west of Pennsylvania and New York to Native Americans because the King wanted to teach the colonists a lesson - GEORGE WASHINGTON TAUGHT THE RED COATS A LESSON INSTEAD! Why did George fight? - because when Washington saved his army -- he was given 26,500 sq miles of Illinois -- and the King was going to take it away! A-HA!!

This little Southern Fascist is so embarrassing. He is holding 20,000 American Troops hostage so he can continue to win his silly and insignificant little war. Can anyone think of anything more childish or embarrassing?

LOL Yeah sure! Which side are we on there by the way? The sunni who hate us because of Saddam or the Shiite who are allied with Iran? Folks there have been some real stupid People in leadership positions throughout the worlds history. Can't say where Sir Lies-A-Lot ranks but it HAS to be in the bottom ten if not the worst.
