Fire Destroys Bush Presidential Library

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A tragic fire on Monday destroyed the personal library of President George W. Bush. Both of his books have been lost.

Presidential spokesman Tony Snow said the president was devastated, as he had not finished coloring the second one.

===I expect nothing less but what I hear here is a disgrace. Is that serious enough for you?===

And Bush has earned every harsh word of it. Again, you confise the institutions with the people running them as being unseparable. If that every becomes the case (that we have to provide some sort of fake support for people who we think are destroying the fabric of the country), then our democracy is finished.

Besides, what a short memory we have. Bubba was blasted every bit as Bush, yet I didn't hear Repubs talking about respect for the "institution" back then. Repubs had no problem impeaching the "institution" if I recall.

The President Sucks

President Bush wakes up one morning, looks out of the White House window and sees "The President Sucks" written in the snow in urine. Furious, he calls in the FBI and demands the perpetrators be found. Later that day the FBI agents return.

"Well sir," says the first agent, "the urine has been analyzed and it's the Vice President's". Bush goes purple with rage and shouts, "Is that all?"

"Well no sir," says the agent, "It's the First Lady's handwriting."

Rafterman1-To be honest I never really noticed the irony in their argument about bravery and being for the Iraq War as synonymous, but is a good point. Anyone against the war is called cowardly by the repubs, but you're absoutely correct, it doesn't take courage to sit and home and for a war that you are not getting your own arm or leg blown off in. It's not patriotic to keep sending troops into a military mistake to continue to die; it's stupid and cruel.

mudrose,,, No, I'm not afraid of nuc's -- I worked with them for 20 years & understand what it takes to build them, the dangers imposed when building & handling them & the controls it takes to keep from blowing youself up.

[rafterman1]

===Dumnos party of defeat always denigrating our institutions.===

Exactly why I posted all that stuff (that you obviously ignored) about bravery and cowardice. That type of statement of yours seems to reinforce for you the idea that somehow being for the Iraq war is a brave thing. But it's not brave. Stupid maybe. Ignorant of history perhaps. But not brave.

[j-whitman]

mudrose,,,,, Keeping Bush as the "Decider" & Commander in Chief for the last 6 years hasn't worked either.. Iraq still has no democracy & terrorism has grown.

[mudrose-2009]

You all seem to need more fodder for your rants. Sorry I gave you some - it goes in one ear and out the other. So I leave you all to your rantings. Maybe eventually you'll all eat yourselves. Dumnos party of defeat always denigrating our institutions.

Eyes Wide Shut

George w. Bush is out jogging one morning, notices a little boy on the corner with a box. Curious, he runs over to the child and says, "What's in the box kid?"

The little boy says, "Kittens, they're brand new kittens."

George W. laughs and says, "What kind of kittens are they?"

"Republicans," the child says.

"Oh that's cute," George W. says and he runs off.

A couple of days later George is running with his buddy *** Cheney and he spies the same boy with his box just ahead.

George W. says to ***, "You gotta check this out" and they both jog over to the boy with the box. George W. says, "Look in the box ***, isn't that cute? Look at those little kittens. Hey kid tell my friend *** what kind of kittens they are."

The boy replies, "They're Democrats."

"Whoa!", George W. says, "I came by here the other day and you said they were Republicans. What's up?"

"Well," the kid says, "Their eyes are open now"

I don't understand all this talk about Bush's failed presidency. He and his gang have done everything they set out to do;

Bleed the country dry with a contrived war to make Halliburton and other cronies even richer.

Dismantle the Constitution.

Dismantle 30 years of environmental legislation.

Give huge tax cuts to the wealthiest 1% of Americans.

Pay lip service to his "born again" BS to keep the bible thumping lunitic fringe happy.

Make the Supreme Court even more fascist than his father (the SECOND worst president in US history) did.

But what about the thousands who have died in his illegal war in Iraq, you might well ask? I'm sure that neither he nor anyone in his gang gave it a thought.

ALL MEMBERS OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY SHOULD BE VIGOROUSLY PROSICUTED AS MEMBERS OF AN ONGOING CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE (and George W. Bush should be dragged out to the Rose Garden and shot)

[rafterman1]

===The dumnos have no mandate other than to encroach on the Executive Branch.===

Again:

Democrats need to remind people what Republicans did with Bill Clinton in Somalia, Haiti and Kosovo. Republicans like John McCain and Tom DeLay had called for deadlines and cutting off funding for those conflicts after troops were deployed. Apparently, it was fine to cut-n-run and play politics back then. They called for cutting funding, but not after years of war like in Iraq, where failure has become obvious. The Republicans started doing it from DAY ONE of those past conflicts. Talk about cut-and-run. Clinton conceeded and agreed to timelines to get the funding for the troops. But if George Bush stays true to his word and doesn't sign the funding bill, then who's using the troops for political gain? The Democrats can't let the Republicans get away with that level of hypocrisy.

Bush the Post Turtle

A 70-year-old Texas Rancher got his hand caught in a gate while working cattle. He wrapped the hand in his bandana and drove his pickup to the doctor. While suturing the laceration, the doctor asked the old man about George W. Bush being in the White House.

The old Texan said, "Well, ya know, Bush is a 'Post Turtle.'"

Not knowing what the old man meant, the doctor asked what a Post Turtle was.

The old man looked at him and drawled, "When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a Post Turtle."

The old man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain:

"You know he didn't get there by himself, he doesn't belong there, he can't get anything done while he's up there, and you just want to help the poor dumb *** get down."

[rafterman1]

===You seem to think your party is without sin. In fact they are the biggest bamboozlers going and you sit there and justify their every move.===

No, we don't think our party is without sin. But when you seem to think yours is and only yours is without sin (as evidenced by the end of your post there and your general refusal to even accept that Bush lied about Iraq), we aren't going to just sit there and listen to you be holier than thou.

There are plenty of things to complain about with the Dem party, but we are too busy listening to and defending against your own dillusions about your own party that there's little time to write about anything else.

Whitman Part IV

Yes, people are dying -- the situation calls for many things. Sitting on this blog and (b)itching about Bush isn't going to solve the problem and the dumnos haven't got a clue how to help. Their coming into power was no brillant coup. We wanted to show Bush our displeasure, the dumnos think this gave them the right to push around the Executive Branch. They have no mandate, they have no platform. Ask them. And they sit there and say they are doing the peoples wishes. Look, as odd as this sounds, that man on Pennsylvania Avenue was elected by the people. He took an oath to protect the Constitution and this country. He's not perfect, but at least he has tried. He made a big mistake, we acknowledge it but he didn't do it because he didn't care about his country and the fact that we haven't been hit again isn't solely based on good fortune. You can't stand by the man fine, don't denigrate the office and this country by telling the world he (s)ucks. Why even Neville Chamberlain who was the biggest pacifist that ever existed when he died was eulogized by Churchill as being a man of honor. I expect nothing less but what I hear here is a disgrace. Is that serious enough for you?

Bush's Brain Scan

George W. Bush went to see the doctor to get the results of his brain scan. The doctor said: "Mr. President, I have some bad news for you. First, we have discovered that your brain has two sides: the left side and the right side."

Bush interrupted, "Well, that's normal, isn't it? I thought everybody had two sides to their brain?"

The doctor replied, "That's true, Mr. President. But your brain is very unusual because on the left side there isn't anything right, while on the right side there isn't anything left."

[mudrose-2009]

Whitman Part III
We leave. Fine, what do we put in it's place. We know there have been mistakes. Let's not compound it. The dumnos have no mandate other than to encroach on the Executive Branch. They have two choices - fund or defund. They only want to play ff with the troops. And you all sit at your key boards and call them righteous. I've lived through Vietnam. Been there, done that. I don't want to see another killing field.

[mudrose-2009]

To Whitman, Part II

Nobody said that Bush was right. He threw a granade into the Middle East. A big fat granade. The point is not to call for defeat and vamoose. The point is to see in whatever way possible to contain this mess so that the Islamofacists don't get control of Nukes. That doesn't scare you? Only Bush and his so called perceived it's his fault and he lies bother you. You are so removed from the realities of this situation by your blind hatred of this man, that you don't see what lies ahead.

Cheney and the Bushes on a Plane

*** Cheney, President Bush and his father are flying on Air Force One. *** looks at Dubya, chuckles and says, "You know, I could throw a $100.00 bill out the window right now and make one person very happy."

Dubya shrugs his shoulders and says, "Well, I could throw ten $10.00 bills out the window and make 10 people very happy." George Bush Senior says, "Of course then, I could throw one-hundred $1.00 bills out the window and make a hundred people very happy."

The pilot rolls her eyes, looks at all of them and says, "I could throw all of you out the window and make the whole country happy."

[mudrose-2009]

To Whitman Part I
I suppose you are immune to listening to all the other posts on this blog, right? I'm not accusing you of anything -- other than personalizing everything. Look, there is no bipartianship in this country. It's a ***-for-tat mentality -- and I'm tired of all the b.s. You seem to think your party is without sin. In fact they are the biggest bamboozlers going and you sit there and justify their every move.
