31. sounds similiar to his last speech at the UN--he lectured them on their
responsibility to reconstructing Iraq and the reception at that UN speech was also 'cool".

5. Notice how he pulled up short of saying
the US will spread it's brand of freedom all over the world and instead said to "parts" of the world? He's laying out the plan for global domniation...

27. American voters embraced that idea. Now, he just has to convince the
rest of the world. HAHAHAHAHA.

Seriously, though, he said that in those exact words during the campaign. Apparently, the majority of American voters want just that.

7. This isn't a surprise.
They know he's full of shit and he can't get away with the crap he does. He can only do that here, the new haven for ignorance and intolerance.

11. Since I have tuned out Cable news, I am no longer subject to the
bushshit they shovel.

I have not missed a damn thing not watching those channels. I can get my news from other sources and even double check it right here on the net.

I've pretty much tuned out all television since that day and even that day I didn't watch it cause I didn't want to get swept up into the bullshit. Needless to say by 5, I knew we had just been screwed without even the pleasure of a reach around.

22. He is back to the droopy mouth and jaw spasms? Seriously?
He has looked quite normal lately. What is up with him??? I have actually been quite surprised at how normal he has looked and sounded since the election. So, what is this about - this coming and going of the facial problems?? He undeniably has a problem.

23. well here's my theory
since the election is 'over' they've allowed him to go back to drinking and snorting. You can tell which nostril he used by which side of his mouth is drooping.

long time cocaine and meth users have rotten teeth and they clinch their jaws. They salvitate. They have glassy eyes. their tounge is swollen. Watch him closley and you will see he is on drugs.

25. The man is a total moron. The whole world knows it.
Only the 59 million people who are trained to take orders from the pew and/or are racists seem to agree with him.

30. I thought it was Jesish
That way even if you're drunk people know you're still thinking of Jayzuss.

As for his mouth problems, this is why he goes to Crawford so often. They're giving him medical attention there. It isn't a vacation.

IMHO.

34. And he didn't change the topic to killing of terrorists?
That might wake him up from day-sleeping.
