FReeps are absolutely SHOCKED that * uses the "F-word"
To: Molly Pitcher
This is the first I heard of GWB dropping the F-bomb o Talk magazine. Not that it didn't happen--but I am skeptical, because if it did, why haven't the Democrats made a bigger deal out of it, even if just to defend their own?

Yeah, I'm wondering too.

Never heard this mentioned before. Wouldn't it have been mentioned?

Particularly in view of the fact that there was a bit of flack about Kerry's use of the word.

Hope somebody can find out for sure.

"This is the first I heard of GWB dropping the F-bomb o Talk magazine."

...that's becayse Talk NEVER interviewed W.

They interviewed TUCKER CARLSON in their September 1999 issue. (Talk has since gone out of biz.)

Best I could find was a partial quote on the web (I replaced the F-bomb with F* in the quote, since FR is a family friendly candidate. Except to little kids. Everyone knows that Republicans want little children to starve.

In front of staff, Bush stood up, grabbed Bullock by the shoulders, pulled him forward, and kissed him. "If you're going to f* me," Bush said, "you'll have to kiss me first."

"They think it's like a high school election, where if you beat up your opponent enough you can win. They've lost their f* minds." -- Bush

Bush enjoys saying what he thinks, and seems liable to at any moment. No presidential candidate can afford to be too candid -- "He used to say 'f*' a lot more before this all started," says one of his advisers -- but after five years as governor Bush still has the capacity to surprise.

Bush doesn't even wait for me to finish the question. "I don't care. I really don't care. Does anyone ever say 'F* you'? I don't care if they do," he barks.

In other words, there is no Bush quote, it's hearsay about how Bush talks in friends.

The lefties have liked to spin this into a "See, Bush cursed too!" type situation. They are totally off, though - Kerry dropped the F bomb on multiple campaign appearances and on television... Bush drops the F bomb around trusted friends once in a while, and he certainly wouldn't be the first president to do so!

Kerry took campaigning to a new low, however. I can't recall any other major political candidate for President EVER dropping the F bomb in public.

4. It was printed in TIME magazine that Bush said, "Fuck Saddam,
we're taking him out." And no one raised a fuss. Kerry's thing died away, too. It's not a big deal that people swear from time to time.

Fuckin' ay!

5. "If you're going to f*ck me"
"In front of staff, Bush stood up, grabbed Bullock by the shoulders, pulled him forward, and kissed him. "If you're going to f* me," Bush said, "you'll have to kiss me first.""

Whoa, when did this happen?? This seems unlikely to say the least?

10. Bullock died in June of 1999
Bullock used the F word as much as anyone. Especially when he was really pissed.

11. Well, why act so fucking suprised?
Gee, the only way you can shock these idiots is by telling them that their patron saint has been known to drop the "f bomb"?

Hmm, they don't flinch at the allegations that he used cocaine frequently, was an alcoholic, was nailed twice for drunk driving, disappeared from his Air Guard duties which prevented him from having to go to Vietnam, and lied about intelligence to start an unnecessary war? But when they learn he said the "f word", suddenly they are just "shocked"?

These people have a serious mental disorder.

13. So Bush's early decision to invade Iraq is NOT a problem, but
his use of the "f-bomb" while doing so IS a problem? Christ, those people are unbelievable.

If Bush came out and said, "I'm declaring Marshall Law and all minorities will be taken to a fucking prison camp immediately. Seig heil", the only thing that'd bother them is the... "f-bomb"... as they put it.

14. F-bombing Freepers!
They have no problem with cheering the slaughter of innocent civilians, can't contain their glee when thousands of people die in natural disasters, make terrorist threats on their pitiful web-site, but can't stand to hear them dang ol cuss words. Hey freepers!... ....Fuck you, assholes!

17. Here are a couple Bush F-word quotes
From Counterpunch Magazine

Berating the Generals
The Siege of Washington
By WAYNE MADSEN


In 1986, a clearly drunk and disorderly Bush told The Wall Street Journal's Al Hunt, "You fucking son of a bitch . . . I saw what you wrote. We're not going to forget this." The rich frat boy was irate about an article Hunt wrote about Bush's father.

Time magazine is reporting that during a March 2002 briefing for three senators by Condoleezza Rice, Bush poked his head into a White House meeting room and bellowed, "Fuck Saddam. We're taking him out!"

19. BUSH IS A POTTY MOUTHED FAKE!
The Two Faces of (President?) George "Dubya" Bush and His Administration

SNIP>>>WOMEN: Though his spin doctors did a good job of hiding it during the last election, Bush has been known to display his true moral character when he talks to other men. At the Republican National Convention in 1988, he was asked by a Hartford Courant reporter about what he and his father talked about when they weren't talking about politics.

"PUSSY," Bush replied.

20. But "hunting weftists" - that's totally fine
And I love their inability to just accept reality - no matter what the issue, they go into amazing gymnastics to hold total opposites as both equally true.

Lobbing the f-bomb is HORRIBLE. DISPICABLE. Always. But on the other hand, Shrub isn't the first one to use it as president, so it's okay. But on the other hand, even though every other president had illicit sex in the white house, when Clinton did it, it was the end of the world. And using the f-bomb is utterly terrible and inexcusable and no one should use it in a campaign. Unless it was Shrub. But it's okay, because it was never an issue until Kerry used, and now it's bad. But it's the lefties who are making the big stink about the use of the f-bomb...

Ich habe jetz kopfschmerzen!!!!
