Bush: 'Small faction' fighting to take over Iraq

[True_Blue]

CRAWFORD, Texas (AP) -- Amid an uprising in Iraq, President Bush declared Saturday that insurgents are "a small faction" trying to derail democracy in a battle he vowed the U.S. military and its allies will win.

"Coalition forces will continue a multi-city offensive ... until these enemies of democracy are dealt with," Bush said in his weekly radio address.

Baghdad and parts of central Iraq were chaotic on Friday, the first anniversary of the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime, as Bush discussed military operations with national security aides and with three foreign leaders who have sent troops.

"A small faction is attempting to ... seize power" as the June 30 date for Iraqi sovereignty draws near, the president said on the radio, and to delay the turnover of sovereignty "is precisely what our enemies want."

2. Small faction, eh....

[Amaya]

3. "a small faction"??

"enemies of democracy" I really hate the way this f*cker talks!:grr:

[bemildred]

4. All makes perfect sense once you realize who the "small faction" is. nt

[goclark]

25. Small means Meaningless

BushCo thinks of anyone that does not look like them as "small, worthless,terrorists,the enemy,non Christian,thugs" and on and on

[nodictators]

20. I agree totally

And with the "Heil Bush" news media, his lies are never exposed or even contradicted.

[EdGy]

37. small faction called NEO-CONSERVATIVES

that's the small faction that is trying to gain control of Iraq.

And the Iraqis are not going for it.

[saigon68]

38. Repuke Thugs and Criminals

More truth in that statement

[mike1963]

5. But he's right. The * administration IS a small faction...

:eyes:

[bemildred]

6. Exactly, and enemies of democracy, and so on. nt

[RedEarth]

7. George you don't want democracy in Iraq, if that were to happen

there would be an all out civil war....Sunnis and Kurds rebelling against the Shia's.

[JPace]

8. I wonder if he thinks the daily killing of our troops

is a "SMALL" sacrifice......

I think Move On should design an ad around the
film showing AWOL joking to the press about
the missing WMD's while a second screen scrolls
down the names of the hundreds of dead American
soldiers who have died in Iraq looking for those
WMD's.

Really funny huh?

[AlCzervik]

9. Now when the Squatter-in-Thief

says "small" does that mean more than one but less than 25 million? I bet he does think it's really small, afterall this is the same Shrub that was shocked by the fact that most of the world hates him.

[LibDemAlways]

10. If by "a small faction" he means

anything other than the entire population of Iraq, he's delusional.

[Robbien]

11. Calling it a small faction makes the military look real bad

The US military have been fighting this small faction for a week now. This small faction is still fighting, still killing our soldiers and still capturing hostages. This small faction was able to wrest the control of three cities from the control of this military. The military is still trying to regain control of Kut from this small faction.

If our military cannot win over a small faction, then it has been highly overrated.

See, calling it a small faction makes the military look bad. It you called it what it is, one of the major factions of the Iraqi people, the only person who looks bad is Bush&Co. The military is being Bush's whipping boy once again.

[theHandpuppet]

24. Not only that...

... but a "small faction" armed with nothing but RPGs and assault rifles against the most heavily armed military in the world.

[Barkley]

39. Good Point Robbien - n/t

[DrBB]

12. "Small faction" controls 3 cities and a good-sized chunk of Baghdad

Here's a question for ya, dumbass. Do you think that "small faction" has fewer followers or more, in the wake of our experiment with collective punishment in Falloojeh?

[sspiderjohn]

13. The entire city of Baghdad is on strike. How small is that?

nt

[rfkrocks]

14. credibilty problems strike again

excuse me but really are we such experts in the iraqis mindset that we know what the iraqis are thinking? seems to me we have made a mistake everytime we have guessed-our president keeps wandering around the ME powder keg with a blowtorch

[peterh]

15. It’s obvious the twit has a problem with sizes…

Like when he said the Sunni Triangle was just 200 Sq. miles when it’s really around 5000 Sq. miles….:eyes:

[teryang]

16. Elections in late 2005?

This is so tragic. Sounds like war, war, war and more war.

[Malva Zebrina]

17. enemies of democracy

I am so ashamed of this stupid fascist pig we have for a president. All he is capable of is clowing around before cameras and joking before hand picked audiences, making fun of other people and above all, making jokes about the lies he told aobut the existence of WMD.

We should never allow this country to forget that grevious blow to our country. An evil man, with evil intent, lied to his own people about invading a relatively defenseless and already beaten country and virtually leveling it to the ground. He then brought in all the corporations to rebuild what he destroyed on false pretenses. He is responsible for the tens of thousands of innocent babies, children, women and old men who were innocents. He is a murderer--and a ruthless murderer who knows not honor in any form whatsoever.

There is your example of democracy in action. Not to mention the stealing of an election in his own country and the secrecy and lies he uses as his modus operandi so he can get away with his lies to the people of this country

He needs to be impeached before any more damage is inflicted upon us and upon the people of Iraq. He is a war criminal and so is Powell and Rice, Rumsfeld wolfowitz and the whole club.

[Ravy]

18. Enemies to democracy???

I thought they wanted a role in it.

[sspiderjohn]

19. 3 IGC members resigned -- guess that's a small faction

[Rex]

21. Enemies of Democracy

Look in the mirror Dubya, you're the biggest threat to Democracy the worlds ever known!

[daleo]

23. In Viet Nam, it was always "a small faction", too

Light at the end of the tunnel. We are drawing them out in the open. It won't be long now. Blah, blah, blah.

[saigon68]

31. The Light at the End of the Tunnel

Was really a TRAIN coming in the opposite direction !!!!!!!!!

[skrunch]

26. So much for "Semper Fidelis"

The BFEE seems to regard the US Military as their own private mercenary army.

[Layman]

32. Military Intelligence?

When is the U.S. Military going to wake up and see themselves as the patsies they're being played for by these oligarchic psychopaths?

[louis-t]

27. 130,000 American soldiers plus

thousands from other countries can't take out a 'small faction'?
Does this idiot really think everyone believes him?

[ParanoidPat]

28. A 'small' fraction of that 'small' faction......

.....on their way to Fallujah as re-enforcements. :evilfrown:



Bush* must think this is just another 'focus group' like the millions worldwide who marched against the war. :(

[pinniped]

29. As opposed to a larger "faction"?

bu$h is still a fcukng idiot.

[Jim Warren]

30. Well, what else is he gonna say?

Hopefully, he'll be repeating this line at his trial

[bushwakker]

34. Bush leads a small faction that has taken over the US*

[truthisfreedom]

35. a small faction of rethugs who jump ship and vote him out of office is all

it will take to get rid if this mafioso.

[saigon68]

36. That's about it

A small faction of the sane

[Domitan]

40. Once more

I have to debate with myself about whether Bush is really that clueless or being a stubborn liar.
