"I''m confident we can succeed unless we lose our nerve," he added.


Ahh, Bush. How we will miss him.

Bush Sees "Defining Moment" In Iraq ...

Hey dumdum, the "defining moment" was when you and your neocon buddies decided to go into that place to begin with!

Like Bush, mudrose won"t be able to keep his word.

Neither one would know a "defining moment" if it fell on them.

"The new Australian prime minister campaigned on a theme of withdrawing Australian troops from Iraq. Mr. Bush brought up Rudd"s Iraq stance himself in his opening remarks. Asking and answering his own question, Mr. Bush said he expected a journalist to ask him, "Aren"t you mad at the prime minister for fulfilling his campaign pledge? The answer is no."
---------------------------

Our next President is campaigning on a theme of withdrawing American troops from Iraq.

It"s a winning platform.

I don''t feel like saying anything bad today. Heard enough already with that little girl dying of cancer......So, I think President Bush has improved a lot in how he talks this last month or so. It''s like listening to a real American speak his mind. Don''t agree with everything, but I do like someone talking plain and frank to me as I would him. Hope the things our leaders do this year compliment our Constitution as to what it says,......not what he or anyone else says it says.

Not wasting time on the wasted nonsense of most of these posts. Al-Malike is trying to get the militias under control via the new Iraqi military. It is a defining moment.

The defining moment in Iraq was when the US invaded in 2003. The last five years have been an effort to fix the country we broke and on which we spent 4000 American lives and tens of thousands of Iraqi lives, as well as hundreds of billions of dollars. Bush, Cheney, and their advisors are a bunch of criminal fools.

"It''s going to take awhile, but it''s a necessary part of the development of a free society," Mr. Bush said...


Then they can emulate all the glorious aspects of our current "free" society...corruption, election fraud, housing debales, high energy prices, high food prices, racism, justice only for the rich, murder each other in the streets, global polution and warming, corporate greed, government corruption, etc., etc.

Isn''t "freedom" wonderful!

"Any government that presumes to represent the majority of people must confront criminal elements or people who think they can live outside the law. That''s what''s taking place in Basra and other parts of Iraq," Bush said.

Who would know better about living outside the law than Bush?

Just a few more turning points, mission accomplished, defining moments and MILLENIA of civil war and Iraq will be a calm and peaceful utopia.

"Major combat operations in Iraq have ended. In the Battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed. And now our coalition is engaged in securing and reconstructing that country."

- George Idiot Bush, May 1, 2003.

5 Years later...

"The situation in Iraq remains dangerous and fragile. Basra [like Washington D.C.] has been a place where criminality has thrived. They are fighting some pretty tough characters... and yes, there"s going to be violence, and that"s sad."

George Idiot Bush, March 28, 2008

Now lets all vote for John McSame,

an older, dumber version of George Idiot Bush.

The Great Emperor Bush II has announced that he plans to "re-invade Iraq" all over again, and this time do it right, by bombing every city, town, and village in the country, turning the country into one vast "crater"!

Although this would wipe out most of the country''s citizens, and probably tick off the entire Arab world, the Great Emperor wants to show everyone that no one attacks the Great Emperor and gets away with it.

After the "re-invasion", troops from the US(SA), supported by the better equipped, better fed, and better paid mercenaries from Blackwater US(SA) will "mop up" what is left, killing and torturing those citizens unlucky enough to be still alive. The Great Emperor will then visit the former Iraq, and in a major photo op, rename the country "Bushland" and include it into the Emperor''s empire to be called "The United Republican Neocon States of Emperor Bush II"!!!!!

SIG HEIL, BUSH!!!!
sig heil (more of the same), McCain????

A recent book talks about these (defining moments, mission accomplished, and turning point sound bites).
The author points out that we''ve had so many turning points over the last few years that we have turned in a circle.

Can''t this guy at least come up with some new phrase? Don''t misunderestimate him though, he''ll probably will!

"Mr. Bush also suggested that his Iraq policy was working because "troops are coming out."


Right George, but they are coming out dead and maimed.
