Bush: "I'm Sure People View Me As A War Monger"
ABC | January 15, 2008 01:39 PM


In Riyadh today, the president danced a traditional sword dance with one of the princes of the royal family. It was a public -- and a little awkward -- display of affection, all part of Bush's first visit to Saudi Arabia aimed at repairing strained relations between the world's biggest oil producer and the world' s biggest oil consumer.

The president sat down with "Nightline" co-anchor Terry Moran at one of the vast royal palaces, and it became clear who holds the cards right now in the oil markets, with the price up near $100 a barrel...

..."I have talked to these leaders face to face," he said. "I have asked them point blank, 'Do you understand how difficult these issues are?' Yes. 'Are you prepared to make the painful political compromises?' They say they are."

Despite that optimism, the president also said that he does feel misunderstood in the Middle East.

"My image (is) 'Bush wants to fight Muslims.' And, yes, I'm concerned about it. Not because of me, personally. I'm concerned because I want most people to understand the great generosity and compassion of Americans," he said.

"I'm sure people view me as a war monger and I view myself as peacemaker," the president said. "They view me as so pro-Israeli I can't be open-minded about Palestinian peace, and yet I'm the only president ever to have articulated a two-state solution. And you just have to fight through stereotypes by actions." ......(more)

:banghead:

you haven't articulated JACK SHIT, you moronic jack-ass! PEACEMAKER my lily white ass!

Straight from the horses mouth as they say.

the cocaine snorting prairie monkey is finally right about something.

:eyes:

The goggles do NOTHING! :argh:

I say: who the hell in this world doesn't see you as a warmonger, except your daddy, your mommy and your bubba jeb?

warmonger! warmonger! warmonger! warmonger! warmonger! warmonger! warmonger! warmonger! warmonger!
insane warmonger! insane warmonger! insane warmonger! insane warmonger! insane warmonger!

how in the hell can you see yourself as a peacemaker when you have killed, maimed, bombed, killed, maimed, bombed and blastend thousands upon thousands upon thousands of innocent people, both iraqi and american soldiers... may the spirits of mahatma ghandi, martin luther king, jr., eleanor roosevelt, and all other great and true peacemakers of this world appear to you night, after night, after night, from this night forward and every night for the rest of your nights!

:puke:

"And I consider myself a neurosurgeon, a concert pianist, a prize-winning writer, and .. of course .. God Almighty."

What a fucking lunatic. Does he know how fucking demented this whole trip is making him look? Asinine statements, fur coats, bling-bling, swords, falcons .. what's next? It is embarrassing, and I already hate his fucking guts.

that was absolutely no threat to this country. We're approaching 4000 US service members dead, tens of thousands permanently maimed, minimum of a hundred thousand Iraqis dead, God only knows how many more with their lives permanently damaged.

You bet your sorry ass people view you as a war monger and guess what, they are right.

OMG, Bush is a complete, total, babbling I.D.I.O.T.!!!

He is a total embarrassment to the United States.

Why can't something -- anything -- be done to impeach this sorry excuse of a human being?

Yeah, you're a fucking visionary. Asshole!
