[Dark]

http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/04/23/bush.caskets/index.html

Has Bush no shame?

[Fenris]

1. No he does not.

[MSgt213]

2. First time he saw them I bet.

[mediaman007]

79. After more than one year at war, Bush* finally sees coffins!

I'm surprised someone even told him about this!

"Watch this drive!"

[rocktivity]

3. I'm moved by Bush's being moved

:puke:
rocknation

[LiberalFighter]

52. I'd be moved when gw* is moved from the WH

[jean]

4. Another phony word from Karen Hughes: "moved"

[Tellurian]

32. I read where the mother of a serial killer used the same

verbiage when providing cover for her killer son.

He'd come home late from school, clothes covered in blood, take a shower leaving the bloody clothes at the foot of the washing machine, for mom to launder.

She never asked questions and never said a word to the authoritys, of course, until his capture.

[Tuttle]

38. Wait a minute:

wasn't that on the X-Files?

Tut-tut

[kskiska]

50. Yeah, like Pickles' "wrenching."

or was it "retching?"

[keithyboy]

70. You can tell when Karen is back in town. the words just don't match

the macho man.

[Piperay]

78. Yeah, what exactly does "MOVED" mean

to chimp?? You can be "moved" in a number of ways, moved to tears, moved to laughter, is moved referring to feeling or action like physically removing yourself from the sight. I honestly believe chimp is incapable of feeling for anyone or anything. :-(

[LittleApple81]

5. Need you ask? Of course he doesn't. n/t

[MaineDem]

6. He had to say something

They have to spin this into something they can use.

I find his response offensive, however. How phony can they be?

[SaveElmer]

7. Probably a Bowel Movement

Now that he possibly realizes what he has done!!!

[Barbara Ann]

8. He is moved alright.

He had a bowel movement after he heard someone got fired for taking the photos.

[Borgnine]

9. If there's any justice...

...the public will see fit that Bush is "moved" back to Crawford to live with the pigs.

[King_Crimson]

63. He should be "MOVED" into the prisoner's dock...

of a war crimes tribunal!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

10. he should be moved enough to move out of the presidency

[rkc3]

11. Bush

Probably didn't realize any soldiers had been killed in Iraq. He still thinks they are welcoming us with flowers and parades.

Dumbass.

[denverbill]

12. Moved how? Moved to white hot rage?

IMO, he pissed and hollered and screamed til the guilty photo-taker was fired.

[Catt03]

15. Assuming he meant it as ...

a transitional verb; to stir emotions, then prehaps he we should continue to show him more which will be more "moving."

[Richardo]

13. Probably said "20? Is that all?"

That's not so bad... :eyes:

[AlinPA]

40. Lst year, Rumsfeld called the deaths "onesies & twosies" nt

[jimshoes]

73. Now they come back by the score

This despicable regime continues this farce in Iraq, daily spinning new lies to gloss over the all too obvious truth coming out of Iraq either over the airwaves (such as they are) or in flag draped caskets on military transport planes. There is a special place in hell I think for Herr Rumfilled.

[frankly_fedup2]

51. Yeah, like that guy on Fox News Brett (something)

"Why there are more MV accidents in a day then there have been soldiers killed in Iraq."

I just do not get this comparison they keep trying to throw in our faces.

[NeonLX]

55. Ahh...that would be Britt Hume, better known as

Herr Buttmunch.

[yardwork]

74. Oh that old chestnut! We heard that a lot during Vietnam.

"More motor vehicle accidents every year than the total number killed in combat during Vietnam."

As if that meant anything. As if those killed in combat were just "throwaways." Extras. Would have been killed in highway crashes anyway.

Absolutely moranic (sic) thinking and talking.

[blueseas]

14. Oh please

He is such a hypocrite, he could very well go to Dover and meet the returning dead.

[johnnie]

16. Bullshit...

n/t

[peterh]

Yeah moved…to tighten the rules….

We won’t have no stinkin’ contractors doin this again….the media have fallin in line and so will you…

x(

[benburch]

17. Nice time to notice, Mr. President.

Did you think that there were no caskets until you saw this photo?

Asshole.

[UpInArms]

18. I would like to "move" him

from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue to the Hague.

[Unknown Known]

19. Rove's new theme -

[Claire Beth]

20. Bush told Bob Woodward "NO DOUBT"...

meaning he had no doubt about having gone to Iraq. Bush* has NO CONSCIENCE!!!! NONE

[lebkuchen]

21. We don't know who's in each casket, so where's the privacy issue?

It's not as though tabloid photographers took pictures of the comatose bodies in their humvees while worked over by a medivac team, as w/Princess Diana.

[truthspeaker]

22. keep moving

till you cross the border, dumbass.

[Mixxster]

23. "Duffy: 'We must pay attention to the privacy of the families'"

Unless, of course, it involves the flag draped remains that appear in Bush political ads.

[Dark]

27. Good point.

I hate that fucking bastard. I really do.

[bif]

24. Moved to pour himself another drink?

[seemslikeadream]

25. He's moved all right

"Why should we hear about body bags and deaths and how many, what day it's going to happen, and how many this or what do you suppose? Oh, I mean, it's, not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"

Former first lady, Barbara Pierce Bush. to Diane Sawyer in April 2003

[Mandate My Ass]

26. his bowels moved

he probably shit when he realized someone had defied his orders to hide the war dead like they're dirty laundry.

[mia]

69. speaking of b* movements

[Pale_Rider]

28. Bush being moved alright ...

[PfcHammer]

29. you can be darn sure * won't pass on Tillman's casket

[r_u_stuck2]

30. Should be moved out of office n/t

[JohnOneillsMemory]

31. MOVEON.ORG ...no shame...shame is for elitists...n/t

[DFWJock]

33. Sorry folks....

Im too busy fund raising to attend any funerals, but Im moved by the caskets.....now, watch this drive.

[SmokeyBlues]

34. Moved?

Anybody got that haunting picture of jackass strolling through the cemetery in Europe (I believe it was Europe). It was almost as if one of his handlers instructed jackass to walk from here to there because it'll make a great photo opportunity.

I'm sure others recall the photo I'm talking about. And let me say again that the muthafucker was strolling with that stupid-assed expression on his face through rows and rows of graves. Yeah, he was "moved" alright!

[saskatoon]

62. Is this the picture you were talking about. I got it by googling

http://www.whitehouse.gov/president/europe/15.html

[SmokeyBlues]

72. Yes it is!

Many thanks for the effort saskatoon!

Look at the hoodlum strolling like he doesn't have a worry in the world. Just look at the shameless hoodlum!

And he was moved by the photos of the coffins. Right!

[Zero Gravitas]

35. He's moved alright

Pickles is going to be busy tonight.

[DoYouEverWonder]

36. Maybe someone can show W a few of these pictures?

There are 100's more here, if he is interested:

http://www.robert-fisk.com/iraqwarvictims_mar2003.htm

[Supormom]

53. Those pictures are heartbreaking.

If only the American public cared enough to look at some of these images. Perhaps they'd recognize the true cost of this war.

[Minstrel Boy]

37. He was deeply disturbed that

the embargo was finally broken.

His steely resolve: "Never again."

[seemslikeadream]

39. Import - Export

[pinto]

41. re: Duffy's "first priority" statement.

How many "first priority" items can this admin come up with on a monthly basis.

Jobs are our first priority.
Security is our first priority.
Defeating terror is our first priority.
Privacy is our first priority.

I think JINGOISM is their first priority....

I can take it or leave it some times with these guys, but if there was any sincerity in them someone would say their first priority is seeing that young American man and women are brought back from harms way as soon as possible....I could accept that "spin" almost.

But to say Busboy was "moved" and the families "privacy" is their first priority? They leave it at that. Fox will blast it. Folks will say, he cares!

These kids are dead.

[Lindacooks]

42. What an asshole

I hate him so much I can hardly stand it.

[damnraddem]

43. Moved?

Moved to impose more-draconian censorship on reporting of US dead?

[koopie57]

44. I don't think he realizes

that these caskets contain bodies of those who gave up their lives so that he could have his tantrum silenced and fullfill his greed capacity. If he did, I think he would be giggling like he does when something horrible happens, you know hitting the trifecta and things like that.

[seemslikeadream]

45. He's a butcher

[yellowcanine]

46. John Prine said it best....

Flag Decal Heaven, by John Prine
While digesting Reader's Digest
In the back of a dirty book store,
A plastic flag, with gum on the back,
Fell out on the floor.
Well, I picked it up and I ran outside
Slapped it on my window shield,
And if I could see old Betsy Ross
I'd tell her how good I feel.

Chorus: But your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
They're already overcrowded
From your dirty little war.
Now Jesus don't like killin'
No matter what the reason's for,
And your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
Well, I went to the bank this morning
And the cashier he said to me,
"If you join the Christmas club
We'll give you ten of them flags for free."
Well, I didn't mess around a bit
I took him up on what he said.
And I stuck them stickers all over my car
And one on my wife's forehead.

Repeat Chorus:

Well, I got my window shield so filled
With flags I couldn't see.
So, I ran the car upside a curb
And right into a tree.
By the time they got a doctor down
I was already dead.
And I'll never understand why the man
Standing in the Pearly Gates said...
Repeat Chorus:

[seemslikeadream]

48. John Prine is the best...

[GoddessOfGuinness]

47. I wonder if he's moved by

Tami Silicio losing her job for photos like that.

[Lisa]

49. I bet he "moved" to pick up the phone and fire ...

... the woman who took those pictures, AND her husband as well.

[Nay]

54. Is he "moved" enough to demand that the photographer and

her husband be given their jobs back? And to support them in any wrongful dismissal lawsuit? Oh. Didn't think so.

Asswipe.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

56. He ought to be moved enough to greet each one personally...

...but, he's AWOL from this, too.

[fishnfla]

57. playing politics with dead soldiers

is the outcome of failing foreign policy with live ones

[yelladawg]

58. I don't believe he saw the pictures

It's all Rove crap. He never saw them.

[Bluebear]

60. He needs a spokesman to SAY he was moved? n/t

[Malva Zebrina]

59. Shedding a tear?

Is Laura "wrenching"
over these seven hundred dead soldiers who were deployed on the lies of her prick of a stupid husband, as she goes about raising more money for him, eating and shopping and attending flower shows where a tulip was named after her. (may the tulip drop over dead with a severe tulip disease and may no one buy one ever)

How dare this prick take political advantage of this?

HOW DARE HE?

He was AWOL in time of war--HOW DARE HE SHED A TEAR FOR THESE YOUNG PEOPLE WHO HE SENT TO THEIR DEATHS ON LIES?

[llmart]

61. Marianne....

I gotta tell you that every time I read your posts I am unable to say it better! If that bastard was in front of me and offered his hand to shake I would refuse. I loathe him and his family more than I ever thought I could. If the American people don't throw his sorry ass out of DC in November, I don't know what I'll do. I think my last hope for Americans to gain a moral conscious as a country will be gone.

[susu369]

65. I'm with you - love Marianne's posts

thought about her this morning when I read Mark Morford's description of Pickles:

"But then comes the hard part: We apologize. Profusely and maybe even a bit meekly, we ask for forgiveness or at least offer an olive branch and recognize our shared messy humanness as the thing that differentiates us from the saccharine sexless drone people of the world -- like, you know, Laura Bush. Shudder."

[stepnw1f]

64. More like...

a bowel movement.

[rfkrocks]

66. Notice how * turns these pictures into something about him

He was "moved" Get it people-even our great king was moved by his subject's deaths- we must be impressed by HIS reaction? Bush can't help being arrogant and narcissistic even when it is about the deaths of people who he sent to their deaths-the man is missing a sympathy bone-these pictures don't require Bush to say he was moved -they are sad and tragic in and of themselves-* is not worthy of these deaths-

[SideshowScott]

67. Funny how he was not so " Moved" before the casket photos..

I mean hes the precedent and has access to all kinds of information..SURELY someone told him that Americans were dieing and being wounded in Iraq. He did not seem so moved then..But now after the things we already knew leaked out to the public hes suddenly moved by it..GOD when will people wake up to this scam called the Bush presidency???

[GoldenOldie]

68. "moved"

Like he was moved over Carla Tucker???? Like he was moved over his own daughter's appendectomy???? I don't think Georgie and his sibilings are capable of having feelings.....thee all truly have the genes of Barb.

[teryang]

71. What a shameless hypocrite!

It must be tough taking orders from von Rumsfeldt and Chechny and then having to play the fool's part because they are invariably wrong.

[Magleetis]

75. When I look at those pictures

I hear Country Joe and the Fish.

[TankLV]

76. Yeah - moved to hide them again!

nt

[Demeter]

77. Just not moved far enough

Maybe the Caymans?

[0007]

80. Yawn

[Hepburn]

81. Gag me!

He doesn't give a shit. After all, it's only collateral damage. Somebody else's kids - not his - bet the fucker didn't blink an eye. Gawd, I hate him. :mad:
