Bush: "The world will drift to tragedy. This will not happen on my watch"

Bush stressed the importance of a firm response to international terrorism, calling security the "most solemn duty of an American president," at a rally in Sunrise, near Fort Lauderdale.

"If America will show uncertainty or weakness in this decade, the world will drift to a tragedy. This will not happen on my watch," he said.

He insisted a commander in chief "must stand on principle, not the shifting stands of political convenience," repeating his attacks on Kerry as an irresolute leader. Bush noted that tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of Kerry's vote against a bill authorizing funds for the war in Iraq.

Kerry has challenged that characterization, saying he has held a consistent position and justified voting against the bill because, he said, the war was being mishandled.



Below, the world drifts to tragedy on 9/11 while Bush is "on his watch."

When will he EVER tell the truth on ANYTHING.

When You Tell One Lie

Paul Hatch

When you tell one lie, it leads to another
So you tell two lies to cover each other
Then you tell three lies and, Oh Brother,
You're in trouble up to your ears!

So you tell four lies to try to protect you
Then you tell five lies so folks won't suspect you
Then you tell six lies and you'll collect
A life filled with worries and fears


'Cause you can't remember how many lies you've told
And half the things you say aren't true
And sometime you'll slip up, you'll trip up and then
Whatever will become of you?


So you lie and lie without even trying
And each lie you tell will keep multiplying
'Till the whole wide world will know you're lying
Then you'll be
Suspected
Detected
Rejected
Neglected
Disliked
And you should!
When you lie, you're closing the door
On everything good

5. 9/11, Iraq war you tricked us on. sorry Liar*, you're way past tragedy...

And in the debates, you had shown weakness and uncertainty by flip-flopping on issues when not even addressing them when asked!

7. he doesn't do 'drift' - his clammy hands are on the wheel and have

already driven us into the layered hell of tragedy. He doesn't read signs along the way, look/ask for direction nor has a clue what the position of the sun means. He won't get us back on track. Ever.

8. they lying bastard has already placed us right smack in the middle of a

tragedy which has become a nightmarish quagmire. Vote the stupid shrub out of office!

11. Compare the face in the schoolroom photo to the face we've

seen recently.

The man has aged horrendously. HORRENDOUSLY.

He is not well. Not well at all.
