Europeans Evacuating Lebanon, U.S. “Forming Plans” While * Does Photo-ops

Europeans Evacuating Lebanon, U.S. “Forming Plans” While Bush Does Photo-ops
July 16th, 2006 @ 12:47 pm

The Washington Post reports that the U.S. is “trying to find a way to evacuate” an estimated 25,000 American citizens are who are trapped in war-torn Lebanon, while “Israel, with U.S. support, intends to resist calls for a cease-fire and continue a longer-term strategy of punishing Hezbollah, which is likely to include several weeks of precision bombing in Lebanon, according to senior Israeli and U.S. officials.”

Yesterday, the U.S. State Department said that “it is developing plans to transport Americans from Lebanon to the neighboring island of Cyprus.”



Meanwhile, as Americans in Lebanon wait for word on evacuation plans, our fearless leader, George W. Bush, is busy at the G8 Summit partaking in photo-ops like driving an electric cart to dinner and biking the grounds of the G8 Summit…





Could someone please explain to Bush that he needs to get on the stick and get our citizens out of Lebanon? While the U.S. is still without a plan, the Europeans’ are on top of the situation with voluntary evacuations underway for their citizens.

I had not even noticed them! :puke:

That Dubya sure cuts a wide swath across the world of fashion, don't he?

in how NOT to dress!

un-president!

Red socks, white pasty legs, blue garanimals. I give him a "P" for putz!

Laura didn't dress him... or maybe she did!

needs to be done.

I heard on the radio late this morning that something had started re evacuation. Has it? WINS gives very brief, undetailed, and probably inaccurate news. Their weather forecasts are not good.

There is another thread that says 21 people out of an estimated 25,000 have been evacuated.

Another "fantastic" day for King Putz. :puke: I am totally sickened.

Zero, Zip and NADA! At this point I really do not expect them to handle this better than any other catastrophe. Sorry US Citizens, except if you voted for the dumbass.

Has anyone got the keys to the golf cart?

BTW, we maintain a continuous Naval prescence in the Gulf.

lebanese israelis, assorted foreigners... how he sleeps at night i don't know. ok, i guess i do know. strong meds. what will he say if AMERICANS are killed by israeli air strikes? i bet it'll be something along the lines of 'sacrifices are made in the quest for freedom'.

the republicans are going to lose over this debacle...there`s a lot of pissed off americans and their families wondering if they are going to get out alive. actually maybe we are better off letting him ride his bike instead of being really in charge...

You are completely on your own ... the Chimp and the cabal can't function in natural disasters, terrorist attacks ...

More Bush is Out of Touch on Middle East Crisis: He’d Rather Talk About Roast Pig
July 16th, 2006 @ 6:40 pm

{snip}

Newsday reported yesterday on Bush’s wild pig tale (hat tip to reader Dotti J), as “Israeli warplanes were preparing an attack on Lebanon Thursday afternoon, and a Lebanese militia was aiming a rocket at the ancient Israeli city of Safed.” It appears that Bush was more interested in “bantering with reporters in Germany about a pig,” than answering questions about the Middle East crisis…

If by some chance Americans were to get hurt over there -- maimed or killed -- God forbid, what better way for the warmongering Bush & co to use that to their advantage. It sure would make Bill Kristol's "Our War" meme easier to serve up to the masses.
