"Untamed Fires of Freedom"? WTF is that supposed to mean?
Edited on Thu Jan-20-05 12:14 PM by Pachamama
Anyone else freaked out by such descriptions? Bush just said that in his speech....That and "Expansion of Freedom"....I think that they don't even bother to hide their agenda...And the double speak and references to Tyranny and oppression of Women, is really what they are saying to America and what we are going to be getting....

:puke: I'm so sick to my stomach right now....This is the beginning of 4 years of hell....

"Life in a free society....freedom from want & fear....".....yeah, right....

4. War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.

8. Yeah, he made a reference to slavery too that I thought was weird
...More doublespeak...

I think that when DUers have the opportunity to read the full transcript and we watch the events in the next years unfold, we will see that they laid out exactly what they planned....

7. "Free from want" as long as you don't want to live like a human...
As long as you don't want a minimum wage that puts you above the poverty line.

As long as you don't want to live in a country that doesn't start wars and attack countries that never attacked us.

As long as you don't want a decent education for all Americans.

As long as you don't want the ultra wealthy to pay any taxes on income they never worked for.

As long as you don't want to breathe clean air and drink clean water that you don't have to pay $10 a gallon for.

22. Yeah, that's the image that came to my mind....
:cry: :puke:

Sick, absolutely sick....

His references to "Freedom" (I don't remember how many times, I lost count) were eerie and bizarre....

26. Freedom, yeah right
Bush was just mocking the world by talking about Freedom. It was Bush's way of saying, "I don't have to worry about reelection so you all are screwed. Big Time. Freedom? The joke is on you, suckers!"

That's what Bush was really saying.

27. Jon Stewart on Daily Show mocked Bush's 27 Freedom References &
15 Liberty References....

"We are ready for the greatest achievements in history in the name of Freedom"....I think that was his signoff before asking Gawd to bless the US....Let's hope God forgives us...

Crap! I knew most of the company was getting laid off from their jobs but I didn't know they would let freedom go too.

20. It doesn't have to mean a damn thing. They have drunk the Kool-Aid and
anything said is fine with them. He could curse for 20 solid minutes and it wouldn't phase the Bushbots!
