I blinked and Minnesota is no longer part of the US? Thanks W!

I was hard at work Saturday when my mom called me to inform me that * is an idiot. She had been watching the televised visit of the President at the collapsed I-35 bridge site and told me the last line of his speech was:


"So I'm proud to be with you. Thank you for your leadership. God bless the people of this part of the world. Thank you"

This part of the world? Where did he think he was? Maybe its a good thing he thinks we are out of the US - maybe we will get money to rebuild our roads - lord knows he doesn't spent it domestically.

That doesn't sound like an American name. Are you sure you are part of the US?

Maybe you are Canadian?

Apparently we are a separate country - remember Virgil Goode's comments:

In a letter released to CNN Wednesday, Goode wrote in part to a constituent, "I do not subscribe to using the Koran in any way. The Muslim representative from Minnesota was elected by the voters of that district and if American citizens don't wake up and adopt the Virgil Goode position on immigration there will likely be many more Muslims elected to office and demanding the use of the Koran."

Since Ellison is orginially from Detroit, I guess Detroit is also a foreign land....

doesn't matter, either.

"We have an amazing country, where people's instinct, first instinct, is to help save life. There's a lot of peoples' first instincts here in the Twin Cities was to save the lives of somebody who was hurting."

Unlike those in, say, Texas, or France (to pick 2 other countries out of the air), where they don't have that instinct, to help save life.

working as hard as they possibly can to save life and to find life; ..."


:wtf:

It is the plurals v. singulars that he always seems to screw up which makes the sentences just grate on the brain.

"Everybody get out of my way!!!"

It's their way of linguistically distancing themselves from any accountability.

His handlers have trained him to use that phrase. It is repeated everywhere. Bush can't remember where he is from one minute to the next, so this way he can drink himself silly, and still sound like a "leader".

Saves him from turning to whoever is standing next to him and asking "Where the fuck am I?" We wouldn't want him to be an embarrassment to American citizens, now would we?

his boots, everywhere..so when he forgets who he is he can look around and say "oh yea I am presidente heh heh heh"

I wonder if his underwear also has the seal....hmmm note to self: Ask Condi about W's drawers

don't have to remember names then or any specifics?

An excellent point -- bet he's using it as a space-filler, because he doesn't know or care about where he happens to be at any particular time.

...usually attributed to "liberal elites", but as * showed, there's nothing "liberal" about it -- it's just for "the elites" (or as W said, "My base").

It has a less well-known urban counterpart: lookover country. That's where those of us urbanites who can't afford "a penthouse view" live.

"We spent a lot of time talking about Africa, as we should. Africa is a nation that suffers from incredible disease." George W. Bush

:eyes:

Now Minneapolis and New Orleans are joined by the Mississippi river and the idiotic platitudes of a president who won't acknowledge that we're part of the country he's supposed to be leading.

Unbelievable!

Thanks!! :hi:

How do you keep track of all those?

What a complete moran he is!!

... and formatting the results in a post on DU. One can take any phrase and see how often (and where and when) Smirk regurgitated the same ol' shit. I find it strangely fascinating that he uttered that phrase (for the record) ONLY ONCE outside the U.S.

I find that I can feel my neurons disintegrating after I but skim through a couple of speeches retrieved from that site.

It's a matter of wearing protective clothing and taking the right medications - as well as stepping outside and getting sun and fresh air periodically. I got a bit disoriented therre for a moment, but I've had a full recovery.

Five years at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation and six years on DU have given me some elementary experience around hazardous materials. Almost nothing compares to the radioactive waste the spews from the piehole of the Fecal Fuhrer, however.

:evilgrin:

... for several hours after reading a Bush transcript!

kept those kind of tidbits.

Sort of like this one. ;)

I've done that laborious labor before too,
when I was inclined and had the energy.

Thanks for looking it all up! ;)

'This part of the world' - where the hell am I? :rofl:

This is quite telling, and you neatly organized it so even any right-wing idiots can understand it.

:hi:

Half my family lives in Minnesota, none of them were on the bridge, but they live near it. The one's Ive talked to say they never liked going over it, and tried to avoid it. This is so sad that our country is falling apart and the government doesn't seem to care.

:mad:

and my daughter immediately commented, "He probably can't pronounce Minneapolis."

Drugs and booze'll do that.

And I hope that idiot doesn't upset you too much. :)

Welcome to DU, Nadine_nm! :hi:

I thought it said you had 777 posts! ;)

The man is so far from denial he feels the truth is a lie.

With all the Aryan blood up there, I thought it resembled the "homeland" more than just about any other state (except maybe Wisconsin).

is a country not a state & therefore the new FISA law will not protect the citizens from warrantless wiretapping. It is all perception. If George Bush knew Minnesota was a state he would be breaking the law. Since he has no clue that it is actually a state then obviously he's not breaking the law! Get with the program.:sarcasm:

Building bridges isn't Bush's strong attribute.

It really is odd when I think of it. Blowing things up over there, and acting like it's a disaster over here. It's a disaster WHEREVER THE HELL IT HAPPENS.

I don't want him as my leader so if he wants to make Minnesota an independent nation or hand it over to Canada he can go right ahead. He has brought us enough problems, it will be good to be rid of him.

Maybe we'll rejoin the US in 2009 or so.

by this news!

I can't wait to establish diplomatic relations with the U.S. and other countries in the world.

I do hope we'll tighten up our border security, though. There's absolutely no excuse for allowing totalitarian foreign dictators to fly into our airspace and tromp around examining our infrastructure. Heads should roll...
