Subject: Bush: ‘I’m the Commander Guy’

[rpannier]

I guess he's no longer the decider.

Give him a year, he'll be claiming to be the Lordly, God-king.

President Bush coined a new nickname for himself — ‘’the commander guy” — on Wednesday, as he criticized Congressional Democrats in a speech to the annual gathering of the Associated General Contractors of America, a construction industry trade group.

“The question is, ‘Who ought to make that decision, the Congress or the commanders?,’’ Mr. Bush said. “As you know, my position is clear – I’m the commander guy.”


****Is it just me or does 'Commander Guy' sound like some 1950's serial drama you'd see at the movies?****

4. See...Saddam's Al-Qaeda fella's will meet up with the bin-Laden folks

and then they'll fly them commercial jets, see....just like September the Eleventh. Then they'll hate us again for our freedoms which will cause more terror, see, just like on September the Eleventh. They'll follow us home, do you follow me? Ahh..did I say terror occurred on September the Eleventh and those folks are freedom haters? Got wood?

5. Okay lets court martial him and send him to Gitmo.............

[Ghost Dog]

8. Damn. Had to reconnect on dodgy, expensive dial-up from here offshore Africa

in order to comment: Nobody deserves, in this day and age, Gitmo. Not USA and certainly not the Republic of Cuba. And certainly not Islam.

If any people is capable of listening to and understanding the Truth, it is You.

15. Court Marshal

Cannot legally do that. While Constitutionally designated the Commander in Chief, he is not part of the Uniformed services and is not subject to the UCMJ

6. I've said it before and I'll say it again

anyone that has the need to state repeatedly that they are "the boss", "the decider" or the "commander-guy" is in deep doo-doo

a true leader with support of the people does not need to remind the people who is "in charge"

7. It sounds like a title of a silly sit-com that never makes it past the pilot

stage.
