MP3 enhancement of Bush's 30,000 dead Iraqis statement
OK...it's a sound collage at about 2 minutes long...Bush basically sounds pretty comfortable with saying over 30,000 Iraqis have died...no biggie...

1. Because it's better than the higher estimates they got?
You know damn well that if bush says it's 30,000 dead Iraqis, then there isn't some quasi-respectable estimate out there that says it was any less.

3. Precisely
If the Chimp admits that there are 30,000 dead, you know damn well that the real number is well over the 100,000 estimated deaths...that's just deaths...not slowly dying...

2. IMO, that was all planned...
listen to his word choices...his diction---Shrub doesn't speak that way. IMO, his answer was rehearsed...BIG TIME!!!

Peace.

4. You know damn well those questions were set up ahead of time.
Didn't you see him refer to his notes as he responded to them?

Rove 5 days prior to the speech:

"After you're finished reading your pre-written speech that you had nothing to do with writing, you slowly start to remove your lapel microphone. As you're removing it, you pretend to notice the woman in the second row in the green blazer who shouts out "President Bush, I have a question".

You look like you're very interested in responding to their questions as you happily start replacing your microphone to your lapel. Now. All you have to do is read of the answers as we've carefully written for you.

Don't worry, you've rehearsed them time and time again and you know what's coming"

"Oh, and George.. for God's sake don't fuck up and stray from your notes!!"

6. The mere fact that he admits 30,000 dead Iraqis chills me more...
He knows that's not even the right number. He is so dead cold in his soul that he can sleep at night knowing that so many people have died for his trail of lies and PNAC's predatory goals.

He'll admit later that he has no idea how many have died. Wait for that little gem.

5. ABSOLUTELY a 'plant' question...
...bush does not speak that clearly unless he's been prepped.
...message: there are 30,000 dead iraqis but our losses are ONLY less than a 10th of that number. So this war isn't costing us as much. fuck you, george.
