Tonight on Countdown
Pressing his case for a massive infusion of American troops in Iraq, President Bush in his first news conference of the year Wednesday warned of "disastrous consequences" that would follow in the event of a U.S. military withdrawal. Noting discussions he has had with lawmakers, Bush said: "They have told me that they are dissatisfied with the situation in Iraq. I have told them that I was dissatisfied with the situation in Iraq." Bush shrugged off congressional debate on a resolution opposing his Iraq policy, noting that the measure was nonbinding and mostly symbolic. But he said U.S. troops are counting on lawmakers to provide them the funds they need to win.

3. "Money trumps peace"
is the most telling line of his misleadership since 12/00 after meeting with the Senate leadership he said, "I wish this was a dictatorship. . .just as long as I got to be the dictator."

He is now a self described war monger and profiteer.

Have a nice Valentine's Day.

This one liner is gonna stick.

8. "This one liner is going to stick"
Yep, and we should do our best to make that line stick to other republics who support his war of terror.

10. Instead of refering to him as * as I as many others have done for years because we can't
stand even typing his name, I hereby (just pretending to have authority here) dub him. . ."pRes "money trumps peace."

Gotta hand it to him. He nailed himself and his entire agenda quite succinctly with three words no less.
