Bush: "I understand what I am talking about."
November 4, 2006

Bush at Colorado Victory 2006 Rally
Island Grove Regional Park
Greeley, Colorado

"There's still an enemy which desires to inflict harm on America. I live it every day. I understand what I am talking about."

"But I want people to listen to the words of Osama bin Laden. If you have doubt about whether Iraq is important to this war on terror, listen to the words of the enemy."

"I can't look at the mothers and fathers and husbands and wives of those who wear our uniform who may be in Iraq, and say, it's noble, but not think I can -- we can win the -- the only way we can win is if we leave before the job is -- I mean, the only way we can lose is if we leave before the job is done. That's the only way."

4. And we understand that you're an....
...insane, drug-addled alcoholic, Little Monkey. You are the worst affliction ever to happen to our great nation and your fall will be terrible and righteous.

Be warned, Little Monkey, John Conyers mighty gavel is about to swing.

10. Unfathomable CHUTZPAH.
His repeated refrain is how HE'S 'satisfied' or how HE 'understands' or what HE 'agrees' with .. as though EVERYONE ELSE CAN GO FUCK THEMSELVES!

Here's a newsflash, George ... I don't give a rat's rectum what a war criminal and sociopath like you 'thinks,' 'feels,' or 'agrees with'!! Go fuck yourself and the whores you rode in on!!

:grr: :grr: :grr:

11. Pimping for Osama now,
...are we President Miserable Failure? Just listen to his words? You mean, you want us to interpret his words now too, like that Army of Davids was supposed to interpret those bomb-making documents you put on the web?

It's going to be fun to watch you hide from Nancy Pelosi and John Conyers.

12. Whoever said, "We don't need an impeachment. We need an intervention." is 1000% correct.
The only way the first quote in your post makes sense is if Bush sees himself as the enemy of America: There's an enemy. I live it. I know what I mean.

The man is certifiably insane.

13. wha --- ?
"But I want people to listen to the words of Osama bin Laden."

Is THIS why he's never been captured? So you can use him to threaten American voters?

How he can say something like this and have absolutely NO ONE in the media question it is mind-boggling.

41. I thought the revealing part was his "only way I can win" slip up
Before he corrected himself to the only way WE can win.

It's always about George. He's a narcissistic killing machine.

Stick you head in the sand and it may sound even better. You are a DISGRACE to this country!!

You make me ASHAMED!! You make me want to do things I NEVER thought of... but I AIN'T NEVER GONNA tell ya WHUTT I'm A'thunking!! You can understand that kind of speechifying can't you??

I really love that bumper sticker.....

For those that don't.... its popular here in Texas and says:

"Somewhere in Texas a village is missing their idiot"

It's ok. You'll be fine. Just come with us. The nice men in white coats have a happy place for you. We don't serve broccoli. There's a nice room with padded walls. All of your friends will be there. You can all play war together. Nice pretend Armageddon.

Maybe we need a new arcade game. Capture the Weapons of Mass Destruction.
