Didn't * say at one point his dream was to start a war?

[ailsagirl]

This was before the cretin campaigned for prez (the first time). It was in an article or biography (amazing) but I can't find a link for it-- a friend refuses to believe something so heinous. I know I read something about this some time back.

To think, some people's dreams are to create a peaceful world; to bring people together; to clean up the environment; to give people equal rights; freedom of religion; freedom of speech, etc. etc.

Chimp's dream is to kill people. Incomprehensible.

2. Yes he did and he supposedly referred to Iraq!

All you have to do is look to the person who was once given the job to be a ghost writer for our chimp in pResident.

Exclusive: Bush Wanted To Invade Iraq If Elected in 2000

http://www.gnn.tv/articles/article.php?id=761

<snip>

Houston: Two years before the September 11 attacks, presidential candidate George W. Bush was already talking privately about the political benefits of attacking Iraq, according to his former ghost writer, who held many conversations with then-Texas Governor Bush in preparation for a planned autobiography.

“He was thinking about invading Iraq in 1999,” said author and journalist Mickey Herskowitz. “It was on his mind. He said to me: ‘One of the keys to being seen as a great leader is to be seen as a commander-in-chief.’ And he said, ‘My father had all this political capital built up when he drove the Iraqis out of Kuwait and he wasted it.’ He said, ‘If I have a chance to invade….if I had that much capital, I’m not going to waste it. I’m going to get everything passed that I want to get passed and I’m going to have a successful presidency.”

This is a person who, after they dropped him from writing the * book, they asked him to write Preston Bush's biography. It is a very interesting read and I believe him.

5. Thank you, demgurl...

Now I just have to summon the strength to read it. He's so sick

[demgurl]

6. I hope this is what you were looking for.

To me, this is one of the smoking guns. It is at least a bullet in the chamber. He sounds very reliable and the fact that they asked him to do Preston's book after they took Chimp's book away says a lot about how highly they felt about him.

It is a shame we do not have a real press who would report something like this. This proves he is just using our country to further our own agenda. Sick.

10. Not just sick... perverted, twisted, warped, monstrous...

I just can't believe someone like that is in power. God help us

7. I want that quote on the home page

I want that quote on the front page of every liberal website existant

Nominating. Good question.

13. Ironically, he has been successful as far as his goals are

concerned, but his presidency will be seen as a miserable failure. Of course, he's too stupid and self-absorbed to see the big picture.

As far as he's concerned, he got what he wanted and that's all that matters to him. It doesn't occur to him that he is responsible for a disaster of a "war" and a disaster of an economy, not to mention a host of other failures.

3. Maybe you'll find what you were looking for in here?

I was reading some of it this morning, and thought this might help answer your question.

4. Thanks for the link...

I'll see what I can find.

9. "Chimp's dream is to kill people. Incomprehensible."

And then he goes and brags about he's part of the "culture of life".

Man, that's base-level irony.

[ailsagirl]

11. That's why I think he's mentally ill... or perhaps emotionally ill

A sociopath, though, for sure. Worse than anyone that's currently behind bars for ANY crime.

14. When I needed links to Bush's "as long as I was dictator" statement

I got a lot of good links, audio, print. This place is amazing. And it just wasn't the one time he said it. There were three separate statements he made about his wish to be a dictator (of course he made them with that smirk on his face, and his stupid little laugh - so I guess that meant he was kidding).
