Laura Lies! Breaking on GMA "Only one or two protesters."
Edited on Mon May-23-05 07:11 AM by Tom Yossarian Joad
"There were not a lot of protesters. There were only one or two protesters."

Was I hallucinating yesterday as I watched the mob on CNN?

It must be a family trait.



on edit: We are speaking of Laura Bush

2. Internal dialogue ?
You think it and say it in your mind, so TECHNICALLY you're not lying.

"Only one or two (hundred) protesters."

3. These freaks
are really out of touch with reality. Looked to me like she got the hell outta Dodge with a howling lynch mob on her trail.

4. back among the fold

She's probably their Stepford role model.

7. What I find the MOST offensive is how STUPID she & bush & Cartel think we
Americans are!

We SAW the mob protesting her. She KNOWS there was a mob protesting her, NOT "one or two". SHE KNOWS THIS.

But she thinks most Americans are SO STUPID they'll believe her when she says "one or two" and ignore the FACT of what we saw with our own eyes.

Most Americans are NOT THAT STUPID and I am VERY OFFENDED by bushCartel's assumption that they are.

33. The Temple Mount
in Jerusalem.

Things got pretty tense when the protesters almost mobbed her and they had to hustle her butt out of there.

10. Willfull Ignorance
This is the wife of a person who called millions of protesters "focus groups" and 100K dead "collateral damage."

To them, reality is something that happens to other people. Like children, the poor, the uninsured... you know... THOSE people.

"The Help"

35. These people coined the term "friendly fire"
Which means "we fucked up bigtime and need to avoid responsibility by turning away accountability by obfuscating the facts".

There must be a simpler reduction, but the gist stands.

12. What's that sound?
the whirr of her high-speed spin.

Truly she is as evil as her spouse. I don't buy the druggy excuse. I don't buy the "She believes what Rove feeds her" crap. This bitch loves her role as Queen of the Neocons. She hasn't got an altruistic, humble, honest bone in her body.

These fools will lie all the way to the gallows.

13. She's only counting the ones who spoke English.
Because where she comes from, if you can't speak English then you're just a nobody.

14. This source has FIFTY....
Jerusalem, Israel (AHN) – Tensions rise during first lady Laura Bush’s Middle East trip.

About fifty demonstrators surrounded Mrs. Bush as she visited the Dome of the Rock mosque. Secret Service agents linked arms to create a path as the crowd pushed in an attempt to confront her yelling, "How dare you come here" and "You don't belong in this mosque."

Built on a hill in Jerusalem known to Muslims as the Haram al-Sharif (Noble Sanctuary) and to Jews as Temple Mount. It is the third holiest site in Israel and thought to contain the sacred remains of a ancient Jewish temple.

The Secret Service put the first lady into a limousine and was able to take her to the next stop on her political fence-mending tour.

24. "Political fence-mending tour'? WTF? Sending wife of the guy sending
the latest Crusade to Dome of the Rock is a bare faced attempt to incite violence from the masses!

The latest round of violence in Isreal started when Sharon, still campaigning for his present gig at the time, visited Temple Mount and incited the locals so he would win with his hard line stance.

They WANT violence so they can do even more damage. The Wolf may have moved to a different job, but his hand seems likely in setting the satge for more warfare.

Political fence mending is NOT what the neocons do.

17. you don't link arms
to ward off 1 or 2 protestors!

They are down playing it, just like BushINC did with the sadam in his undies photo.

They don't want the pro-crazies Bushinites to doubt the crap they say! Must keep up appearances of of Iraq tossing rosses vs gernades. Hell it's not just Muslims tossing gernades anymore is it?

18. Sure Laura only one or two.......
....... and 70% of the new 21.4 million voters voted for Commandeer Cuckoo
Bananas
........ and Richard Pearle is right the Iraqi war is due to a clerical error
....... and it was normal in multiple counties in Indiana that if you voted
a straight party democratic ticket your vote was flipped to a 3rd party
candidate
...... and your hubby showed up for his duty in the guard.
...... and on 9/11 Condi was hard @ work on terrorism and was not going
to give a talk on a "star wars" missile shield.
...... and 85 % of all the rural and suburban voters went for * in Ohio.

21. Wow, look how quickly the WH spinners
got her face on the morning shows to refute the bad press she got yesterday. The lie about "one or two" is just plain ridiculous, though I would expect no less from a Bush.

23. If the press started doing its job and
telling the American people what the BFEE has been up to for five years, no amount of damage control would be adequate. But I'm not holding my breath.

28. I think this trip
was more to stir shit up, to try to get something started. They probablly would have been more than happy if someone offed or attempted to off the lump.

26. WTF? Just how stupid does she think Americans are? Maybe she
was counting on the usual play from the media...maybe she doesn't know it was actually reported this time! It's like the bully the next day after a poke in the eye the 40 lb wet noodle! "That didn't hurt...nay nay nay..." only this time half the school stood him down.
She is definitely on drugs...next time take a suitcase of depends you freak!

29. i was watching cnn, the gal interviewing laura
afterwards talking to main office cnn, she said, though laura and others were downplaying it, she was there and it was intense. and it wasnt the little thing laura says. said, this region has issue with u.s. and policy. said on laura speech, the people as a whole agreed, but they dont like the way the bushie tell them, their tone, on how to do this. so basically the bush administration was given responsibility in all of it, from this reporter. it was not positive or fluff to laura bush

by visiting that temple?


The moment I saw where she had gone, I could not help but scream aloud, "You dumbass!"
