where were all of you offended republicans when bush so candidly joked about not findind WMD's in iraq? wait, is that different somehow?

YouTube - Bush Makes A Sick Joke About WMDs

he sure did get a good laugh

Hypocrites?!?! No...that's not possible in the GOP!

This joke by Bush is a million times more hurtful to U.S. troops in Iraq, but since it was made by the all-patriotic Commander-in-Chief, it somehow stayed under the radar and didn't make the news.

Would you guys stop talking about that.
It's not important.

We are trying to get Kerry up on the gallows and all this "Bush did the same thing at it was ignored" thing is really cramping our style.

Someone post an embarassing picture of him with a football, quick!!!

I'd hold a distrustful Democrat (second nature to politcians anyway); over a Coke-addicted-draft-dodger like George W. Bush, as he had his head in a pile of columbian narcotics while Kerry was out there fighting for the country.

So a joke about not finding WMDs, the reason those men and women gave their lives, was less offensive than a botched joke about Bush not studying and ending up in Iraq.

Wow. The Republican deep-throaters really started coming out of the wordwork in the past few days.

this guy i work with today said to me "dont tell me youre a kerry supporter?!?!"

this is a guy that feels that illegal mexicans should be sent off to prisons, and that the "liberals" are the reason they are not. he also believes crooks should have their hands cut off, and public execution is the answer to violent crime.

isnt this america, what century is it?

he didnt know who ken lay, or jeff skilling were either. talk about the ultimate sort of crooks, but he had never heard of them this is exactly the sort of guy that takes kerry's comments at face value, the real conservative base. its guys like him that have no idea about whats going on in the world.

now here is the best part...this guy is an architect!

I do not buy the apology. Remember, he's been bashing the military since the Vietnam war. HE has a hatred of the military that rivasls Former President Clinton's.

This is ridiculous. They do not hate the military, they hate the way the military is inappropriately used especially when the military leadership has no personnal knowledge of war.

You can have him, and tak responsibility for his mess.

Me? I told you so in 1999.

This is no longer distinction. It's black and white, it's this or that. There is no grey. With us or against us.

This is the new world order we live in.

And it sucks.

There is also such a thing as making a sinmple issue more complicated than it has to be.

However, the trick is determining when it's being done, for there are some issues in which there are no positive consequences. One such issue as an example is abortion, and this is not trying to start a whole new thread on abortion or a moral evaluatio0n, is that if you protect the mother's rights, then a loife ends, if you protect the life, the mother loses her constitutional rights. That's what makes abortion so difficult to solve.

But some issues are black and white.

The Iraq War is not one of them either.

And I stanjd by my statement over John Kerry. Obviously, people have never visited the site I posted a link to in the original John Kerry thread or they'd see I'm right.

Here's the link again:


Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry

Read the full list of grieviances. Watch the video. Then tell me the son of a bitch doesn't hate the military more than President Clinton and no damned "he just hates the inappropiate use of the military is all". No., He hates the military.

See the thing is....

Is that I don't really care what his feelings are about the people in the military. It doesn't really matter. He's not running for President. He did try to run, and he lost. He is the people of MA's problem, if they still want him to be their voice, then that's their problem.

Because when I hear stories about some of the things our soldiers have done in war, whether ordered or not ordered, some of those things are abhorrent. And it sucks that they were ever in the position to have to make those choices. And I hate it that people, who will never see what soldiers see or have to do what soldiers do, get to dictate their identity, and get to dictate their value to everyone else.

No one has to love the military. The military by nature is really a very ugly thing, that does ugly stuff, in the questionable name for a cause that is debatable as to the individual who finds the cause worthy. I can easily not like what soldiers do. I can not like what our military is doing, and sometimes what our military stands for.

If the people of MA don't agree with Kerry, they can vote him out. If you don't agree with what he said, then don't vote for him if you are in the position to.

But these threads with the constant bickering of which party loves the troops more? Fuck that. Both parties use the military against the people. One side tells us how much they love them and then sends them away for inane reasons. The other side says they love the troops, and the decreases their benefits. The love the military when it's a photo op. They love it when the troops are successful and can make them look good. But, neither party truely loves the troops. They are used, just like the rest of us. We are all pawns in a game for power, and bickering over a half sentence comment is exactly what they want, because it's just another way for us to be blinded and able to ignore reality.

That's ok. Who needs reality anyways.

But as long as you're an American, he's your president whether you like it or not.
