I despise Laura Bush
Nothing else to add. The statement stands on its own merit.

1. Laura
Really? I don't have anything against her. She seems a lot more moderate than her jackass jusband.

Purely out of curiosity, what is it that you despise about her?

4. I think being married to a terrorist warrants a bit of hatred.
How can a mother allow this beast she's married to kill other people's children? What kind of a human being is she?

Terrorist? I think that's extreme.

I'm no supporter of Duh-bya. But comparisons of Bush to Hitler and terrorists is a pretty extreme position.

Sorry. I'm just stating my opinion.

11. Invading Iraq was an act of state terrorism initiated by Bu*h. He
is responsible for the deaths of more innocent people than all the other terrorists in the world combined.

13. To Zorra
Iraq WAS a poorly-planned and -justified war. Perhaps even illegal. But state terrorism? I don't know about that.

As for his involvement with more deaths worldwide than terrorists, I respectively submit that that's extreme hyperbole. Terrorists have killed thousands of people worldwide - some of them on video.

As bad a President as Duh-bya may be, I don't think that I can agree with the terrorist moniker.

15. Poorly justified war?
Edited on Sun May-14-06 11:17 PM by Kerrytravelers
How was is at all justified, poorly or not. To even be "poorly" justified, that would give some credit to any of the "reasons" we have been given for the invasion. There is not one reason that one can point to and say "well, it may have been poorly justified, but there was still some truth in it... somewhere." Not one.

If there is, I invite you to share it with me right here, in the public forum.


P.S. I must also add... perhaps illegal? Invading Iraq, putting Americas in harms way and killing innocent people for nothing except oil profits, control of the Middle East and a selling point for your fundamental fruitcake base who want the rapture to arrive to save them from the gays,abortions and from paying taxes is absolutely illegal.

Yeah, you're probably right.

I've been saying that for three years. But every reason Duh-bya gave us for war turned out to be a lie.

39. He is at MINIMUM a WAR CRIMINAL.
His "war" is TOTALLY UNJUSTIFIABLE!

In no way shape or form can it be considered anything close to "justified"!

That makes him equal to the biggest "terrorists" in the world.

30. Then the UN is a terrorist organization also along w/the U.S. Congress..
Similarly the govts of the UK, Italy, Spain, Poland, Jordan and Japan are terrorist organizations.

41. That's also true. They are proportionally guilty also.
No doubt about it - but considering they all had - what - two people? - compared to our tens of thousands of soldiers, their portion of the CRIMES has no comparison to ours.

14. I disagree. This man and his cabal is committing acts of terror against
the Iraqi people. I hardly find my opinion extreme. I find the shrub and his puppet masters extreme in their zeal to claim power over everyone.

I don't see where I called him hitler anywhere. I called him a terrorist. I didn't say he was committing genocide. And I didn't compare *'s terrorism to behaviors of other terrorists. The actions of this government is different in there is still some democracy left in this country in so much as we are aware we're being wire-tapped and some of his minions are going to jail. But, nonetheless, innocent people are being killed as we pound our inflated chests.

Don't be sorry for stating your opinion. It is just that. Your opinion. However, my response is not an invitation to begin a long drawn out sub-thread where we argue the merits of calling * and the gang terrorists. My opinion is quite strong on the matter as well. And, for the record, I've seen quite a few opinions here you might consider 'extreme.' Many of my opinions would most likely be considered "extreme," but that is just how I respond to the fascism that is slowly taking a strangle hold over this country.

I know. 'Hitler' was just an example.

As for a sub-thread, I agree to disagree with you. I won't draw you into a long battle; I probably don't have the knowledge to keep up anyway.

18. B* is the world's #1 Terrorist.
Over 100,00 innocent Iraqi civilians.
Over 3000 dead at the WTC....
Thousands -- Noone even knows the real body count from Katrina.
Over 2000 of our young people dead fighting for his private war.

Terrorist? Absolutely!!

34. I refer to her as a Mafia Wife, along with her MIL, Lynne Cheney and a
host of others. They know enough to know that their partners get up to no good, make huge sums of money from the misery and blood of others, etc., but they live in the lap of luxury yapping about how they're so much more moral than the rest of us. Bullshit.

6. The greatest tool of politicians both right and left are their wives
Of the left: to give the brains and support needed from a real woman and not a manekin dressed in designer pills as well as duds.

Of the right: to cry and make themselves appear to be the innocent attacked by their hustbands failings.

7. I despise:
1). Laura Bush apologists ("She's really a nice person"...no she ISN'T. Look at the photos from Coretta Scott King's funeral.)

2). The "fair game-slash-off limits" crowd ("BUSH is fair game but Laura and the kids are OFF LIMITS")...first of all, they are all adults. No "kids" in the group. Second, they all campaigned for Bush, so they're all "fair game."

3). The State of Texas, for letting a woman guilty of vehicular manslaughter off the hook, scott free, without so much as a police report, because she was making the beast with two backs with the guy who would one day steal two presidential elections in a row.

I despise the three things listed above. There are probably more, but those are straight off the old brain pan.

24. I've seen the posts on DU...
...and when I do, I step around 'em like I do when a dog soils my lawn.

The daughters are a couple of slackers and the wife has a big mouth. How that translates into the Bush version of Camelot is beyond me.

Edited on Sun May-14-06 11:02 PM by rwenos
Smarter than her husband, should know better, allows herself to be exploited every time he's in political trouble.

I've often thought if (total perverse gag-me nightmare) I ended up at the WH for dinner during his term, I'd end up discussing Jane Austen's novels with her.

Now I don't think I could eat anything without throwing up.

21. Aw, have a little compassion. Would you want to be married to THAT
for over twenty five years? I don't think she's had a particularly good time of it.

Besides, you know there's probably a steep penalty in that family for stepping out of line and having an opinion of one's own.

33. Of course not
and when they all kick off, we may see one.

However, I doubt she's able to break ranks NOW. Consider that family, the number of journalists who were found "suicides" with multiple gunshots to the head, the curious passivity of journalists and Congressmen.

Besides, everybody trashes the First Lady, a woman who gets a tough job merely by being a male's appendage, who gets no pay for working damned hard. I don't have to like her. I'm just not joining the trashing club.

44. NO!
No compassion from me. When you are married to a killer like Bush there is no excuse for being the enabler. She is as guilty as he is because she is helping him. She should have left him years ago.

29. I cannot stand to listern to her insipid yammering.
Sometimes when I was surfing the tube and I see her I would stop for a few minutes just to hear what a vapid fool she is. I cannot bear more than a few minutes. It isn't only what she says but her voice grates real quick. Now when I see her I just keep clicking past.

She's part and parcel of their plan, whether she truly understands this or not. She must have an inkling, because she doesn't appear to be stupid.

37. Laura Bush is the biggest DO NOTHING first lady ever!
She pays lip-service to education issues, but her idiot husband never backs her up with any money or substance.

Eight years of this woman and the only thing they do is trot her out when the polls are low for G.W. Idiot!!

She's a disgrace!!
