I'm surprised Obama said "nobody can question Bush's love of our troops

and our country" without laughing.

over and over again.

Obama basically dismissed Dubya with a platitude. It was subtle but Barack Obama is not a spiteful man.

n/t

which at one time worked... these days not so much.

:eyes:

"Fuck You!" to Obama before. I didn't like it but that was bullshit.

I don't know; seems to me he didn't spend a lot of time on dimson.

all those criminals walking around freely still. I am sick of killing people.

How much taxpayer money is being wasted on that irrelevant crap when men who were responsible for the deaths of American soldiers and Iraqi civilians are still walking around.. laughing all the way to their banks..every single day...!

2005 state of the union speech. He never knew that his boy Roger would get busted.

never hear about any of them Rumsfeld, Rove and the rest of those snakes.

Bush started that war on a pack of lies and he needs to always be connected to Iraq.

:thumbsup:

explanation is not readily obvious. :shrug:

bu$h* caused the deaths of over 4000 american soldiers and the wounding of hundred of thousands, and the hundred and fifty or so iraqis that were killed for a still unexplained war.

Oh yeah, shitty body armor, showers that electrocuted the people who used them, expired food, dirty water.. Yeah Bush was a regular soldiers advocate.

they can make for his buddies.

Why was it necessary for him to do this?
He can only win by not backing down. One has to forcefully step up to the plate, state and explain your stance, and stay there unwaveringly to gain and keep power and backing.

President Obamas attempts at engaging and catering to the other side have all failed, will continue to do so, and will cost him so much I'm afraid to the core.

But that's not news.

What is news is that he did it in this particular speech.
I am sorely disappointed.

in a "useful prop" sort of way.

Then it doesn't count.

Oh the horror, how will he ever show his face in public?

F*cking pathetic.

so there x(

never being found.

Anyone remember THAT?

I have used it several times when debating my RW friends and relatives. I usually preface the video by saying: This is all I needed to know about President Bush.

"This disturbing film had its World Premiere at the SXSW Film Festival in Austin, TX. It is a troubling film about a man who makes it his business to make money as a war profiteer and is proud of it. German war profiteer Fidelis Cloer clearly enjoys his work selling armored cars in Iraq and Afghanistan. He is a microcosm of the capitalist system. He exists to make money and war is simply an extension of business to him. He wants to make the best product and sell it and thus protect his clients. He doesn't seem to care that his products are used as part of a war machine. He seems to have no political conscience or concern. He went to Iraq at the beginning of the war in 2003, because he believed things would get worse and there would be an opportunity to profit."

Cloer is a Capitalistic pig, but he is also painfully honest about what Iraq was really about. At one point he states, "Iraq ia a complete failure. When they leave, all
resources will be transferred to Afghanistan. If they lose Afghanistan the entire region will fall into chaos.

Watching Obama tonight all I could think was that for all the talk of finally focusing on the middle-class, jobs, infrastructure, the focus will be on Afghanistan.
The only thing that has changed is logistics. I think things are going to escalate beyond anything we saw in Iraq.

Come on Obama, stop appeasing corrupt, soulless republicans. Stop glorifying a war criminal!!!!!

Damn, am I ever getting tired of this crap. When is Obama going to start to give medals to all of his enemies in congress??? It's getting ridiculous.

All rich people love the troops for being cannon fodder for their imperialist adventures. Poor people get sent to die. get maimed or get so mentally fucked up that they end up killing themselves so rich people can get richer and sit by their pools and eat caviar and collect dividends from their investments in Halliburton, et al. It's time to chop their heads off. Let's do it before they stop laughing at us.

up his ass.

up his ass.
