I hit the mute button on Mr. Bush and his bunch of bandits, long ago.  Why would anyone even care what comes from his mouth?  Because he is the President?  He is not mine.  Once you know someone is a liar and is trying to use to fear to manipulate you, tune them out and do not let their words get in your head.

Thank you ERNEST CANNING for pointing to your comment to Amy Goodman’s Truthdig article, “US Frees International Terrorist.”  I found it archived at

A good read.  About generations of the Bush family’s business of squeezing every dollar it can out of the US treasury.  We’ve supported them handsomely.  And what do we have to show for it?  WAR, DEATH, DEFICIT, DEBT, and a COMMANDER GUY who shames us in front of the rest of the world.

This disturbing news just in.

‘In a case that could set a global legal precedent for granting basic rights to apes, animal-rights advocates are seeking to get a 26-year-old male chimp legally declared a “person.”’

http://www.nypost.com/seven/05052007/news/worldnews/bizooro_bid_to_label_ape_a_human_worldnews_.htm

If this happens, then Bush could legally be declared a person, note not a human, this has to be stopped, please contact your local zoo rep and protest.

Commander guy stopped terrorist attacks on US cities. What did Clinton do? Storm a compound in Waco and send a little boy back to live in the socialist paradise that is Cuba, after his mother died trying to escape. Sent in federal SWAT to Blow the brains out of Randy Weaver’s wife and baby.Bite his lip and squeeze out a fake tear as embassy’s, Navy ships, and civilian air planes were blown up by Osama and his buddies.

This would all be so incredibly funny were it not so terribly real….

Thousands have died because of this jackass-in-chief’s unchecked ego in the face of his monumental stupidity, gullibility and incompetence.

And to the sycophants both in and out of government egging him on. To all those masterfully playing on his feeble mind, convincing him of his messianic calling, the blood of both honorable American servicemen and innocent Iraqi civilians are on your hands as well.

I hope we take pause long enough to realize just how important the American presidency is. It is far too important a position for its occupant to be as intellectually unqualified, yet so moronically certain as George W. Bush.

Bush?  The Commander Guy?

I doubt the ex Brit Defence Minister, Geoff Hoon would agree.

Iraq Invasion/Occupation Chaos; Cheney Called The Shots Says Hoon, Ex UK Defence Secretary ...

How can we afford to keep these guys in their jobs?
(Oh for a vote of confidence!)
BUT! How does anyone justify walking out when we went there, destroyed their infrastructure, stood by and watched while their treasures are looted, enabled a stupid civil war to get started, and completely screwed up the country (not that wasn’t already pretty nasty) and by the way got thousands of Americans, and HUNDREDS of thousands Iraquis killed?
And we thought Vietnam was a mess!

The really odd thing is how George Bush lately has been increasingly under the delusion that he doesn’t need an educated writer to guide his every utterance.  He never has made any sense when jabbering off-the-cuff; but it’s only been recently that he has attempted to do it so often.  It’s hard to know whether he doesn’t realize how incoherent he is when he speaks unscripted; or if he no longer gives a damn - just the way he no longer gives a damn about the fortunes of the Republican Party.

Didja catch the Bill Maher/The Commander interview?:

BM: Welcome, Mr. Comman….
TC: You’re one of those guys on the internets. I’ve heard….
BM: President Commander, there’s only one int….
TC: People think I don’t know about the internets, because I don’t read, but my people tell me about what’s on the internets, and….
BM: There is only one inter….
TC: There is a lot of evil, vile stuff on the internets, especially about me and my people, and that’s why I don’t tune in and listen to the internets….
BM: Sir, you don’t ‘tune in’ to the intern….
TC: Evil, vile stuff. There’s such a thing as verbal violence, you know, and that’s what the internets do, they promote evil, vile, anti-god stuff, and are a threat to freedom and democracy, that’s why the internets hate us, because….
BM: Mr. President Commander, THERE IS ONLY ONE INTERNET….
TC: Uh, uh, heh, heh, heh, yeah, well, sometimes one something can be too many, if that something is evil and vile and hates freedom and democracy….
BM: And, Mr. Commander, do you feel that way about the Attorney General?

This president reminds me of people who commit crimes just to be famous.

Perhaps we should be asking ourselves the real question:  How did W become the Republican Party’s nominee for the office of the Presidency when he clearly wasn’t the best candidate.  He had plenty of baggage (drink, drugs, not having served in Vietnam, etc.) and couldn’t speak on his own to save his life.  Besides his whole gee-golly-I’m-just-like-all-of-you-middle-Americans persona (and what a farce is that coming from an incredibly well-connected and wealthy family), what did he offer the RNC?

I have long postulated that he was EXACTLY what the powers-that-be in the RNC wanted.  Someone who was electable, but completely controllable.  Those behind-the-scenes characters like Rumsfeld & Cheney couldn’t get elected, but they knew W could and that W was stupid.  Yes, stupid.  He’s a classic anti-intellectual; not only does he not know anything, he doesn’t want to learn anything.  This is precisely what the RNC folks needs in the White House.  They needed someone that wouldn’t ask the tough and intelligent questions.  They needed someone who would pass off all the hard work to others so that he could play ‘President’.  With W out of the way the neocons running the RNC could do whatever the hell they wanted without any interference. 

Now, all these years later since the election that first brought us W, I’ve actually grown to feel somewhat sorry for the President.  He’s clearly so unintelligent that he has no concept of the gravity of his inactions and doesn’t have a clue as to how he has been used to put extreme right-wing dogma supporters in the White House.  Just as one might feel sorry that nature/God has suffered the plight of retardation on another person, we should probably feel sorry for W as well because it’s clear that his God/nature left him mentally incapable of much more than walking and talking at the same time.

Who really expects the insight of Plato to come from a mind of Play-Doh. “I yam what I yam” - Popeye.

George Dubbya Bush - Comedian-in-Chief. The Twilight Zone is all too real.

For insight into just how STUPID so many of our fellow Americans are, just read this and remember how everybody in the MSM hard a hard-on for Pussy Boy George four years ago.   

Mission Accomplished: A look back at the media’s fawning coverage of Bush’s premature declaration of victory in Iraq

ANNE COULTER: It’s stunning. It’s amazing. I think it’s huge. I mean, he’s landing on a boat at 150 miles per hour. It’s tremendous. It’s hard to imagine any Democrat being able to do that. And it doesn’t matter if Democrats try to ridicule it. It’s stunning, and it speaks for itself.

G. GORDON LIDDY: Well, I—in the first place, I think it’s envy. I mean, after all, Al Gore had to go get some woman to tell him how to be a man. And here comes George Bush. You know, he’s in his flight suit, he’s striding across the deck, and he’s wearing his parachute harness, you know—and I’ve worn those because I parachute—and it makes the best of his manly characteristic.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: We’re proud of our president. Americans love having a guy as president, a guy who has a little swagger, who’s physical, who’s not a complicated guy like [former President Bill] Clinton or even like [former Democratic presidential candidates Michael] Dukakis or [Walter] Mondale, all those guys, [George] McGovern. They want a guy who’s president. Women like a guy who’s president. Check it out. The women like this war. I think we like having a hero as our president.

BRIAN WILLIAMS: And two immutable truths about the president that the Democrats can’t change: He’s a youthful guy. He looked terrific and full of energy in a flight suit. He is a former pilot, so it’s not a foreign art farm—art form to him. Not all presidents could have pulled this scene off today.

WH CORRESPONDENT WENDELL GOLER: Mr. Bush traded his suit and tie for a flight suit and took a 20-minute flight to the ship during which he briefly called on his skills as a pilot in the National Guard.

BILL SCHIEFFER: As far as I’m concerned, that was one of the great pictures of all time.

BRIT HUME: But this was risky business. You know, there’s grease and oil on the decks of those aircraft carriers. The wind’s blowing. All kinds of stuff could have gone wrong. It didn’t, he carried it off.

LAURA INGRAHAM: Speaking as a woman, and listening to the women who called into my radio show, seeing President Bush get out of that plane, carrying his helmet, he is a real man. He stands by his word. That was a very powerful moment.

“that isn’t what he said. He said, “I am A commander guy.” As in, he is partial to listening to the commanders. Whoever took down the transcriptmade a mistake, but if you watch the video, he definitely doesn’t say “I am the commander guy.” Even if he did, given the context, it wasn’t a particularly glaring mistake. This is way overblown.”

Dear Sean, ahem [clearing throat]

Dum Dee Dum ...

You say a commander,
And I say the commander,

You say the decider,
And I say what decider?

Decider, Commander,
Commander, Decider ...

Lets call the whole thing off.

Dum, Dum.

You know, some relationships just never work, like the one between the decider and the commander guy and the peace-maker and the war president.

Too many sides to that triangle.

This country is currently getting what it deserves.
(Unfortunately some of us had the sense to see this bs coming and fought against it, we lost and thus have to suffer along with the moronic voters who helped W steal the capital)

I hate to see this happen to the once pillar of freedom. Perhaps this is what is necessary. Perhaps this is what brings about Jefferson’s vision.

“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” -T. Jefferson

To bad we can’t honor the patriots and just bleed the tyrants but…

Our liberty has been stolen. Will we have enough patriots to defeat the tyrants? Do we have any patriots left? Who will fight for liberty?

B

Support our troops. Eh???

This is getting too serious to be funny. Bush stepped over a line long time ago. He’s just plain crazy and we should not have to tolerate him any longer. He may have authority according to the Constitution, but so do we.

Oh please Bush is the same guy from six years ago.Where was the press then warning us that the guy running for President is an idiot.Too afraid to lose your invite to the correspondence dinner.Too afraid of being labeled liberal media.Jeez thanx when his approval rating is as low as Stalins you inform us he is an idiot.What a great reporter you are.If the American public does not wake up and demand more from their media we have a chance that another idiot may get elected President.Mr Robinson the fact that George is an idiot is not a revelation but you can redeem yourself by letting us in on who the idiots are that are running for President this time.You may not get an invitation to the correspondence dinner, you may be labeled right wing or left wing but you will have the satisfaction that comes from a job well done.PSWho do you think sleeps better?The 3 Knight Ridder reporters who got the story right on the run up to war or the reporters who get invited to those dinners.

that isn’t what he said. He said, “I am A commander guy.” As in, he is partial to listening to the commanders. Whoever took down the transcriptmade a mistake, but if you watch the video, he definitely doesn’t say “I am the commander guy.” Even if he did, given the context, it wasn’t a particularly glaring mistake.

This is way overblown.

“Does that make the rug an Assistant Decider? Will the rug get a Medal of Freedom, just like George Tenet?”

Will the rug get a purple heart? 

“President Bush now says that even after “success” in Iraq—after more American and Iraqi deaths—there will still be sectarian violence and there will still be suicide bombers killing innocent civilians. Which is the situation right now. So why stay in Iraq even one more day, except to validate the unwise decisions of our ineloquent Commander Guy?”

Great question. Underlines the danger one can expect when one places trust in a nincompoop. Leaving one to wonder how could a nincompoop be in the Oval Office?

Then one reads, George Bush Receives Purple Heart Award - http://www.alternet.org/blogs/peek/51216/
- and realizes George W. Bush is not the only nincompoop in the land.

Just the same, for the sake of future progeny of nincompoops everywhere, spread this story around.

Thanks Eugene, for your fun and informative observation of a really silly guy.

That spoiled imbecile apparently still thinks he’s succeeded at grabbing Middle East oil. That’s optimistic.

What an utter embarrassment he is.  Its one thing for a portion of the people of the United States to be inarticulate, but the president?  If he wasn’t so dangerous, he would be hillarious.  Its like the Village Idiot was elected mayor.

I read that suicide rates are highest among the aging upper class. Why is it statistics never hold true when you depend on them most? But Dubya is a Big Pharm guy and this is a democracy, sorta’. So can’t we vote that the White House doc double his mood-stabilizers until our nation’s Stockholm Syndrome eases? Perhaps Congress could leave a trail of dollars for Bush & Friends to follow right into a rubber room where the walls are painted with doting crowds… home sweet-berserk home. Is there a Doctor Phil~anthropy in the House?

I can’t wait ‘til The Draft comes back.
HELLO, REALITY!

Bush’s brain (his own brain I mean, not the person of Karl Rove) is decomposing. Put him someplace safe - padded room, maybe - and put Gravel in charge.

The war is over, once the draft starts the war is lost, the Republicians lose the election.

This gang that can’t shoot straight are showing how it is in the end, a lot of people quit their jobs.

And we have a president who is a cowboy, but does not ride a horse, a decider who cannot decide if this war is winning or losing.

Now he calls himself the Comander Guy, funny, I think of him as the Emperor without clothes and if I got close to him I would tell him so.

Recently I was imagining a conversation between George W. Bush and Karl Rove prior to the Iraq invasion.  Rove comes running into the oval office and says “Excuse me Mr. President, but I just thought of a sure fire way to ensure your re-election in 04.”  This better be good T__d Blossom.  I was just fixin to open up a can of whoop-a_s on this video game.  Rove says, “We attack Iraq”.  Attack Iraq?  We’re still lookin for Osama.  “Yes, but knocking over Saddam would make folks forget about Osama, and would get you elected in 04 for sure.  Think about it.  Not only do you get revenge for Saddam trying to assassinate your Daddy, but you become a war time president.  Folks won’t vote against an incumbent president in time of war.”  Sounds good, but how do we convince congress and the American people that attacking Iraq is the right thing to do?  “Well, first you convince em that Saddam possesses WMD’s.  Then you convince em he was responsible for 9/11.  Next, you tell Cheney never to refer to Iraq without mentioning 9/11 in the same sentence.  Push the CIA into giving us some slanted intelligence, and have Condoleezza scare the dickens out of the soccer moms about mushroom clouds over our cities.  It’ll be a slam dunk Mr. President.”  Karl, you’re a genius.  They don’t call you my brain for nothin.  Now let me get back to this video game, while you start workin on the plan.

George Bush is a bonafide idiot. I once believed that he feigned stupidity in order to distract from the illegalities of this cabal, but I no longer believe that. He really is stupid and it’s a damn shame. There should never be a situation where the “Commander Guy” is less informed than those that he represents; however, for the last six years that is exactly the case. Remember when the presidency was something to aspire to? Now it’s simply a position to be appointed to. Woe be unto the masses. Hopefully soon America will stand up and take back our country from these incompetent, bungling, neo-conic fools. But until then we will still be under the leadership of the “Bart Simpson” of world presidents. We should all be ashamed for allowing our country to get to this point. Recapture democracy by impeaching this entire regime.

Commander Guy, you need to be fired, impeached, sent to a padded cell.  How can anyone support this open wound spewing puss, as our country falls off the cliff.

The comparision between violence in the USA and violence in Iraq is undiluted inanity. Is Mr. Bush suggesting that there is no organized insurgency; or the acts of violence in Iraq are random and desultory?

That fantastic rug in the Oval office that looks like the sun is probably some good smoking stuff too.

Insane, isn’t it? When you reach the point that fear of your own conscience is so profound that you become as glib as Bush has about the effects of his decisions. It all has the same ring that his decision not to pardon Tucker had when he was governor of Texas. There was the uncomfortable joke making and smirking.

Josef Stalin once said that one death is a tragedy but a million deaths is a statistic. Yet Bush seems capable of rendering even one death statistical. One wonders if history will be that compassionate when the tables are turned and the Grim Reaper comes for Mr. Bush.
