Once again when leadership is required, AWOL George
is hiding out. Can anyone seriously believe that any recent president viewing the carnage and danger of the current situation in the Middle East would be less engaged than this poor excuse for a man is.
Of course this is the defining pattern of the boy's life.
He hid in the National Guard as thousands of his generational cohort put their lives on the line in Vietnam.
He hid behind his Daddy's power, when duty in the Guard became too tough.
He hid behind his rich friends when business proved too daunting.
He hid behind his flacks' blame of the Navy for the Mission Accomplished fiasco
He hid behind the Secret Service when New York and DC were in flames and he fled to the Heartland.
He hid behind the hapless Brownie while he watched from 30,000 feet as New Orleans drowned.
He hid behind a fortuitously faulty memory, as the plot his henchmen hatched to out a valuable intelligence resource came unraveled.
He swaggers across the world stage revered by the kool aid drinkers as worthy of being on Mt. Rushmore, when in reality he is a moral coward and fool who has earned the epithet, " Worst President Ever".
God help us all..

5. I know it's hard to rank W's most embarrassing moments
since there are so many of them. Nevertheless his ham-handed (sorry, I couldn't stop myself) attempts at humor in the press conference with the German Chancellor was particularly pathetic.

22. No kidding. Did you see the look the Chancellor gave him - at that
response? She looked at him the way a mom would look at her kid deliberaly chewing with his mouth open and otherwise jerking off at the Thanksgiving dinner table - in front of company. Just total disgust and disbelief.

Yep, that's OUR guy, OUR face to the world.

I never voted for him. So WHY am I still saddled with him? Can I return him for a refund? Even a partial refund? Store credit?

23. I did. She looked like she was in disbelief. He also mangled
her name using a soft g rather than the hard g. I know this is an unoriginal comment, but the guy is such an embarrassment.

13. Really ?
I just saw a news blip on concerns for American citizens "stuck" in those target areas and attempts to evacuate them safely.

Is George really riding his bike somewhere?

What a pathetic excuse for a human being. Nothing but a spoiled little rich boy.

7. Right On Chieftain, Right Fucking On !!! - K & R !!!
:yourock:

I wonder how the rePuke majority in Congress is feeling about his inaction right about now, Remember, foreign policy and keeping us safe was supposed to be their forte.

With this thing spinning out of control, and gas prices ready to jump, I'm not feeling safe one bit.

:scared::nuke::scared:

8. deja vu

I had a week's vacation last year and spent some of it watching NO drown (on TV). No leadership.

This year's vacation is coming right up. God only knows what I will watch this time. Is the Current Occupant headed for his ranch after Europe? Worse yet, does it make any damn difference?

9. Deja vu, indeed. Americans in Lebanon are asking for help
and direction on CNN because their government can't or won't figure out an evacuation plan. It is a replay of Katrina on a smaller scale. When will Americans come to un derstand that they should not entrust government to those who believe it to be evil?

10. The World is Leaderless
What would you expect from a Cowboy President.

The Unitied States used to be the leader of the free world. Now its
the lone superpower but still has the moral reponsibility to be
a leader in the world. But through this Cowboy Presidency, the U.S.
has not only lost the moral high ground, but has lost its moral
compass.

Basically what are two skrawny Israeli soldiers worth? World
War III???

Bush had his chance to a statesman, a man with a plan, instead
he's the same old brain-dead, Republican stooge.

14. Oh ye of little faith, just
wait...bush is getting all his ducks in a row...The ducks are the so called "liberal media" and he will make some national address and the media will kiss his ass more or go further up his ass and make him out to be "the peace president" he so long for with Iraq, and the media will convince the sheeple that bush is the messiah and he will bring peace to the middle east. Watch, this will happen....Oh and Iraq will go into civil war.....

watch for the looney right to begin talking about the "end of the world".....FEAR, FEAR, FEAR......Never quite understood how those on the right that go around professing Jesus and hollering about the end of days are so fearful of it....hey, ain't they the ones that are going to get raptured, or could it be they know they are hypocrites and they might just get ruptured.....

while the press was waiting for some words of wisdom and action, he ran off the stage leaving them to answer for his ineptness.
