BUSH:‘No regime should ignore the will of its own people’

White House: Leaders Should Listen To Public And International Opinion
By Eric Kleefeld - July 25, 2008, 12:53PM
White House Irony Watch...

The Bush Administration's statement today on its new sanctions against Zimbabwe call into question just how much of a sense of self-awareness they have

Quoting President Bush:

"No regime should ignore the will of its own people and calls from the international community without consequences"
We might point them in the direction of polling data at home -- not to mention international opinion -- showing that people want a timetable to withdraw from Iraq

1. Typical.
All hypocritical platitudes from the do-as-we-say-not-as-we-do regime.

And Cheney says, "So?"


:grr:

2. Since Bush never knows what he's talking about . . .
. . . his speech writers must have a devilish sense of irony.

3. Indeed.
Actually, if it weren't so tragic, behind the scenes with his totally cynical and ironic speech writers would make a funny movie. Seth Green, Jack Black.
Ooops, I think I got that casting from "Enemy of the State"
Add Janeane Garafolo and Sam Seder.

4. You must pay careful attention to the people...
...if you are to have any success propagandizing them.

6. Mr. No Polls, is now saying that a "regime" shouldn't ignore the will
of its own people. How amusing.

8. The dichotomy in junior's statements is breathtakingly astounding, but seems the
MSM rarely notices or even cares. :P
