Video Of Bush And Blair Being Questioned On DSM
For those that missed it I have posted the video of Bush and Blair answering a question about the Downing Street Minutes. Nothing new but it is good to see that a question regarding the minutes was asked.

3. I've never seen two more guilty consciences on display in my life!
Their facial expressions, voice inflections, and body language were classic. Any interrogator worth his salt would know, immediately, that he was seeing liars.

6. Look at *his body language when the liar speaks!
How obvious can it be that he's lying? He's pathetic, embarrassing, & I don't know how much it's going to take to get through to the other 48% of this country that this crook needs to go.

52% aren't happy with this "president". There's no way he won the 2004 election. No way.

8. A couple of points...
Edited on Tue Jun-07-05 05:14 PM by tex-wyo-dem
Blair DID NOT question the authenticity of the minutes.

Blair said the intelligence was not being fixed around the policy (said it was a mischaracterization)...but, Tony, this is and official government document that says exactly that. It doesn't appear that there was any dissent by those at the meeting, including yourself, regarding that language.

Both Blair's and idiot son's defense was that the minutes were written before the UN was approached. Well, wasn't that the point? The intelligence was being manipulated before going to the UN in order to have a strong case for war. Wouldn't make much sense to do the manipulation AFTER presenting to the UN, now would it.

What really pissed me off was idiot's implication that the media was pulling a dirty trick on Blair during the election...bullshit! * just doesn't know how good he's got it with the joke media in this country. If we had a real press, his ass would have been gone long ago.

10. Turn off your sound and watch B*sh.
Blair is a little more polished than B*sh, probably because of his experience before Parliament. But B*sh looks like a thirteen-year old boy who is about to get caught rolling first graders for their milk money.

11. What should happen now...
...is that all the political talk shows can analyze how their answers did not address the question, how many other forms of evidence (letters, interviews, insider books, etc) SUPPORT the DSM, how this is now a real issue since it came up today in a press conference and in the senate.

Right?

12. Bush is delusional and a psychopathic liar.
I can barely stand to watch the man. Does he really think that if he speaks forcefully, and with conviction, that we won't see through his bs?

13. Also telling is B*sh's top priority in responding to the DSM.
Before even attempting to deny that the DSM is accurate, he admonished the media for publishing it right before the UK election. This plainly shows that B*sh does NOT believe voters are entitled to information which might diminish their support of him.

15. Two very POSes....at least Tony Blair can express himself in a...
...most articulate manner, even though he is lying like crazy. Bush on the other hand is such a bumbling and mumbling idiot, totally unable to express himself in a coherent understandable way and falls back on RNC focus group tested phrases like: "...and the world is better off without Saddam Hussein in power.....yay."

Then Bush has the balls to say, "...Nobody wants to commit military into combat. It's the last option.... The last thing I want to have to do is comfort someone who has lost a loved one."

Liar, liar, pants on fire!
