Bush: 'The way I'm going to play it as commander-in-chief'

http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2007/07/bush_the_way_im_going_to_play.html#more

<snip>

“I believe it’s in this nation’s interests to give the commander a chance to fully implement his operations,’’ Bush said. “That’s the way I’m going to play it as commander-in-chief…’’

“Now, I call upon the United States Congress to give Gen. David Petraeus a chance to come back and tell us if his plan is working,’’ the president said. “And then we can work together on a way forward.’’

...

“I looked at the consequences of stepping back,’’ Bush said. “What would the Iranians think about America if we stepped back in the fact of this extremist challenge… What would Al Qaeda think…. And so I made the decision, rather than pulling out of the capital, to send more troops into the capital, all aimed at providing security’’ for the Iraqi government.

“I strongly believe we will prevail,’’ Bush said, pacing with a hand-held microphone before an audience in Cleveland. “That’s what I believe.’’

USA is out of Iraq? Cause we attacked the USA on 9/11 to get AMerican involvement in at least one war in the Middle East. Al Qaeda would have to attack Middle Easterners and that policy got them nothing in the 1990s. Very little support.

8. What would Iran think? What would al Qaeda think?
They're thinking "Thank Allah that idiot asshole bush is the American president and not somebody with the brains to realize how badly this Iraq cluster fuck is harming the great satan".

They're thinking "he'll go to any lengths to prove he has a penis, won't he"

9. Dear Mr. Bush, You dear sir, you are not my "commander in chief" nor are you
Edited on Tue Jul-10-07 04:24 PM by Decruiter
a "commander in charge" much less President of the nation, but for lies and deceit. You dear sir, you are a Disaster in Residence, occupying the house of "we the people" of the USofA. Please leave before we the citizens of what is left of the USofA and in defense of what may be left of our "Constitution" have to forcibly remove you and the rest of your sorry maladministration. Please Dear Mr. Bush, save all of us here in the US and the world a whole lot of time and tons of embarrassment. Do the right thing George, RESIGN!

10. This is his main concern????
Whatt would the Iranians think about America if we stepped back in the fact of this extremist challenge… What would AlQa edaa think..."


Who the f### cares what the Iranians or AlQa edaa think? It's not like we're going to change their minds.

This has been his problem all of his life, what will people think about him!

I believe in the Easter Bunny, doesn't make it a fact.

God this fool is more interested in how he looks then in the welfare of the troops or the people of this country!!!!

18. Dear george....
you hopeless fuck. Should you ever extricate your head from your ass, please take a moment and look at your approval rating. Your phony bravado and hopelessly misguided military sense will do nothing more than get more American young men and women killed and maimed so you can pretend to be some sort of commander guy. You have no shame or you would bury your face in your bloody hands and get down on your knees and beg forgiveness from the American people. You've beaten yourself and America's fine Army and Marine Corp as well. New Orleans drowned but you cared nothing, Iraq is lost and you can't stop the bleeding. You should be ashamed mister, very ashamed.

21. pay close attention to this comment.
“I believe it’s in this nation’s interests to give the commander a chance to fully implement his operations,’’ Bush said. “That’s the way I’m going to play it as commander-in-chief…’’


I believe?? what about what the people think george, you stupid SOB, this has got to stop we have to fight back, that other line,

"we have to give the commander a chance to fully implement his operations" what george 3,603 is not enough for you, and after 5 years you want us to give you a chance, now, my fellow DU'ers how much more BS can we take from this SOB.

The amount of crap that just came out of his mouth should do it once it gets downstream. It was a good 38 year stretch since it happened last.
