"Will the president listen"? WTF kind of a question is that?

[Philosoraptor]

Sure, the nation is in total agreement, Iraq is a disaster, the blue ribbon panel has spoken, the voters have spoken, all the republicans who've awakened have spoken, but reporters still ask the amazingly bizarre question, 'will the president listen'?

Just what the fuck kind of a ridiculous question is that? Will the president listen?

What fucking planet am I on again? Oh yeah, Earth.

1. IMHO they are spot on the money.... IMHO Bush is on ignore to everything

:shrug:

2. It is hard for me to believe that he has such power as to do whatever he pleases

I mean isn't there some checks and balances on the president of the US? If not, it sounds rather like a dictatorship.

4. Late to the Bush regime party?

5. Kings don't listen. Presidents have to.

We are acting like he's a king, who just won't listen to the people. I thought we were sort of like a democracy, and that bush worked for us, and is supposed to obey us, but hey, I just fell off the turnip truck.

12. Who are you and what did you do with Philosoraptor?

You're sounding way to optimistic about the Chimp in chief raptorman my friend. Not that that's a bad thing but did you just forget your sarcasm tag this morning? ;-)

6. There used to be....

but through singing statements, the "patriot" act, a rubber-stamp Republican Congress and such, Bush himself has removed most of the checks and balances that once bridled him. He is now "the decider", and in my mind "the dictator" that you speak of. A man gone mad with power. That will soon end.

7. Narcissistic, treasonous, rat bastard.

Little Lord Pissypants THINKS he's king. Just ask Poppy.



It's all about the BFEE.

8. Wow!

I thought the same thing when I heard that shit, too.

9. Of course he'll listen,

But if he does listen, will he understand what he is hearing?

[Hubert Flottz]

10. No, all he can do is lie and smirk.

And laugh at the people he's fooled.

11. I believe once Congress has given him the green light to go to war, then it is all up to him. He is

the commander-in-chief. Our whole fate depends on one man's neurosis. WWIII is probably around the corner if the wrong decision are made by the decider.

13. He's never listened before and this time he really won't listen

because it's daddy's buddy trying to bail him out. This war will keep going, innocents will keep dying, until the next president is sworn in.

[lonestarnot]

14. Yes and to listen to Baked it's about the same old same ole.

[rock]

15. It implies he's a fool

That's OK with me.

[Missy M]

16. Stupid people don't listen..

that's why their stupid.
