"The recession started upon my arrival. It could have been — some say February, some say March, some speculate maybe earlier it started — but nevertheless, it happened as we showed up here.

My decision on Iraq, this kind of march to war, affected the economy." —George W. Bush, Meet the Press, Feb. 8, 2004

Bush, Washington, D.C., Jan. 9, 2004

I like this one better... more style.

The following is a poem made up
entirely of actual quotes from George W. Bush.


The quotes have been arranged
for aesthetic reasons only
by Washington Post writer Richard Thompson.


MAKE THE PIE HIGHER
by George W. Bush

I think we all agree, the past is over.

This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty
and potential mental losses.

Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the internet
become more few?

How many hands have I shaked?

They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.

I know that the human being
and the fish can coexist.

Families is where our nation finds hope,
where our wings take dream.

Put food on your family!

Knock down the tollbooth!

Vulcanize Society!

Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher!

One of the reasons I like Bush so much is that I can relate with him; he doesn't think he is better than the common person. Everyone says stupid things every so often, Kerry included. The only difference is that I feel detached to Kerry, I cannot relate with him and he has no personality.

Haloface
05-25-2004, 10:41 AM
The one reason I like him so much, is that he is so fucking retarded, it's almost beyond comprehension that this man is running a country.

'Then you wake up at the high school level and find out that the illiteracy level of our children are appalling'

- *hits his head against a wall*
TELL ME HE WAS JOKING! /cries

'Everyone says stupid things every so often, Kerry included. The only difference is that I feel detached to Kerry, I cannot relate with him and he has no personality. '

- Being an illiterate retard is personality? You wouldn't prefer a man who can give a speech without making the entire world cringe at the stupidity?
LOOK AT MY FUCKING SIGNATURE!

Haloface
05-25-2004, 05:45 PM
You would rather have someone who'll most likely accidently declare war while trying to praise a country, as opposed to someone who will strike up a great, diplomatic speech, but won't make the foreign administration wanna jump in to bed with him?

Besides. You have to laugh. I can't think of another world leader, in history, who's had so many blundering moments.

Get your fat fucking face out of Akipts saggy shitty arse, and start praising someone with a bit of fucking sense, other than that whiny twat who can't seem to laugh with the rest of the world when his beautiful president can't say a single word without gubbering up some bullshit.

Wow L2, I'm sure I'm not the first to say it, but you've really fallen off the left end, so to speak.

You went from being one of the staunchest supporters of the war and the ensuing removal of Saddam just about 9 or 10 months ago, and now you're edging dangerously close to Ytrok Lala-land - especially with these recent picture posts, which don't really do anything but make those of us who once listened to your vehement support of the action and think "wtf?".

Let me put it this way - one of the biggest critiques of incumbent nom Kerry is his "waffling" on many issues.

What about yours?

More Of George W. Bush’s Greatest Quotes:

"I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully."

"I think if you know what you believe; it makes it a lot easier to answer questions. I can't answer your question."

"Natural gas is hemispheric. I like to call it hemispheric in nature because it is a product that we can find in our neighborhoods."

"We ought to make the pie higher."

"They want the federal government controlling Social Security like it's some kind of federal program."

"It's your money. You paid for it."

"I'm a uniter not a divider. That means when it comes time to sew up your chest cavity, we use stitches as opposed to opening it up."

A few more.......

They said this issue wouldn't resignate with the People. They've been proved wrong, it does resignate."

"A surplus means there'll be money left over. Otherwise, it wouldn't be called a surplus."

"I don't want nations feeling like that they can bully ourselves and our allies. I want to have a ballistic defense system so that we can make the world more peaceful, and at the same time I want to reduce our own nuclear capacities to the level commiserate with keeping the peace."

"I think we ought to raise the age at which juveniles can have a gun."

"It's a school full of so-called at-risk children. It's how we, unfortunately, label certain children. It means basically they can't learn. ... It's one of the best schools in Houston."

... I've been talking to Vicente Fox, the new president of Mexico... I know him... to have gas and oil sent to U.S.... so we'll not depend on foreign oil...

"...more and more of our imports are coming from overseas."

"We don't believe in planners and deciders making the decisions on behalf of Americans."

"Well, I think if you say you're going to do something and don't do it, that's trustworthiness."--

"They said this issue wouldn't resignate with the People. They've been proved wrong, it does resignate."

The word you are looking for is resonate. What is humorous about that statement?

"A surplus means there'll be money left over. Otherwise, it wouldn't be called a surplus."

It's true, and it would be interesting to see what the actual context was for this one, as I could easily see it being used to argue a point a liberal had made about the budget.

"I don't want nations feeling like that they can bully ourselves and our allies. I want to have a ballistic defense system so that we can make the world more peaceful, and at the same time I want to reduce our own nuclear capacities to the level commiserate with keeping the peace."

The guy says he doesn't want anyone thinking they can bully the US or its allies, that he wants a missile defense system in place and that he feels it would contribute to a more peaceful world, and that at the same time he wants to reduce the US nuclear stockpiles.

What's funny about that?

"It's a school full of so-called at-risk children. It's how we, unfortunately, label certain children. It means basically they can't learn. ... It's one of the best schools in Houston."

It's a school for underpriviledged youth that other schools have given up on, and in spite of that it is one of the best schools in Houston.

What's your problem with that?

"...more and more of our imports are coming from overseas."

An increasing percentage of our imports are coming from overseas, as opposed to from other countries in America.

Are you confusing the US and Australia?

We are not an island unto ourselves(and you Euros knock American geography knowledge?).

commiserate: To feel or express sorrow or pity for; sympathize with.

Bush wanted to say "commensurate" (Of the same size, extent, or duration as another. Corresponding in size or degree; proportionate), assuming he knows of the word.

And had you stated other counrties in "The Americas" or North America (though than the plural would be moot) you would have had a point. As it is, I think Bush might have an opening for you as a speech writer.

I just find it funny that the one man with the power to destroy the entire world can't think on his feet and is proud of the fact that he never reads the news paper.

There have been many bright American, Republican Presidents. W is not one of them and it amuses me greatly.

"And I am an optimistic person. I guess if you want to try to find something to be pessimistic about, you can find it, no matter how hard you look, you know?" —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., June 15, 2004

"I want to thank my friend, Senator Bill Frist, for joining us today. You're doing a heck of a job. You cut your teeth here, right? That's where you started practicing? That's good. He married a Texas girl, I want you to know. Karyn is with us. A West Texas girl, just like me." —George W. Bush, Nashville, Tenn., May 27, 2004

"I'm honored to shake the hand of a brave Iraqi citizen who had his hand cut off by Saddam Hussein." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., May 25, 2004

Wonder if someone will bring up the obvious about having two hands? :rollin


and a little joke for you all.....

George W. Bush's Intelligence Quiz

While visiting England, George W. Bush is invited to tea with the Queen. He asks her what her leadership philosophy is. She says that it is to surround herself with intelligent people. He asks how she knows if they're intelligent.

"I do so by asking them the right questions," says the Queen. "Allow me to demonstrate."

She phones Tony Blair and says, "Mr. Prime Minister. Please answer this question: Your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or sister. Who is it?"

Tony Blair responds, "It's me, ma'am."

"Correct. Thank you and good-bye, sir," says the Queen. She hangs up and says, "Did you get that, Mr. Bush?"

"Yes ma'am. Thanks a lot. I'll definitely be using that!"

Upon returning to Washington, he decides he'd better put the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to the test. He summons Jesse Helms to the White House and says, "Senator Helms, I wonder if you can answer a question for me."

"Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?"

"Uh, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"

Helms hems and haws and finally asks, "Can I think about it and get back to you?" Bush agrees, and Helms leaves. He immediately calls a meeting of other senior senators, and they puzzle over the question for several hours, but nobody can come up with an answer. Finally, in desperation, Helms calls Colin Powell at the State Department and explains his problem.

"Now look here Colin Powell, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother, or your sister. Who is it?" Powell answers immediately, "It's me, of course, you dumb ass."

Much relieved, Helms rushes back to the White House and exclaims, "I know the answer, sir! I know who it is! It's Colin Powell!" And Bush replies in disgust, "Wrong, you dumb ass, It's Tony Blair!"

It's funny 'cause we all know it could be true :)

get a fucking sense of humour


I have a sense of humor, and more importantly I can tell when something isn't funny. Bush is not a good orator, there is plenty of material to go on without inventing/manipulating information.

What am I saying, keep at it. Just makes YOU look dumb when you put forth that sort of thing.


He's the president and he sounds like someone doing a Mike Tyson impression on SNL.


First off, who watches SNL anymore?

More importantly, who does such a shitty Tyson impersonation that it sounds like Bush?


and how many countries are there in America? Are you talking about North America, Central America, or South America? Last time I checked there was no continent named "America"


When listing continents you list Central America?

And you are trying to correct someone else about geography?

There are 50 btw champ(countries and major territories in America).

You'll notice the person to use the continent label is YOU, where I was simply generalizing BOTH continents. I guess I was wrong to believe that concept could be grasped when we're talking about what countries AREN'T overseas.


Bush wanted to say "commensurate" (Of the same size, extent, or duration as another. Corresponding in size or degree; proportionate), assuming he knows of the word.


Must have missed that.

Now since this is a transcript of what he said, how do YOU know the person writing it didn't do a typo(or Ledge, resignate anyone?)? It would be interesting to see/hear the tape of where he said this to get a better idea of this one's validity.


lol....I stand corrected seems you understand perfectly well.


Yes, most people who are fluent in English could understand what he said and meant. You simply weren't fluent enough in English to have caught it, no shame in that(to give you the benefit of the doubt instead of guessing you're just slow like that).


As for geographical knowledge (or knowlede of geography) ...... last time I checked 2/5 of American adults could not locate Canada on a map of the world ( I would assume one without text, though I would not be prepared to bet money on it) and don't get me started on the which way is up on the Canadian flag thing.


I am a product of US public schools..I'd go head to head with you(or any other Euro we have here) anytime on geography.


And had you stated other counrties in "The Americas" or North America (though than the plural would be moot) you would have had a point. As it is, I think Bush might have an opening for you as a speech writer.


Given your poor understanding of english and bad info, I'd say Michael Moore has a spot for you editing his films.


I just find it funny that the one man with the power to destroy the entire world can't think on his feet and is proud of the fact that he never reads the news paper.


He can't think on his feet? What are you basing this on, just his poor speaking ability?

As for reading the paper, you do realize he has other means of getting information than the New York Times, right?


Folks comming to his aid saying he is not a moron, just add fuel to my fire of fun. Just admit the guys a dolt and you are happy to support him for another term.


He graduated with a degree from Yale, a MBA from Harvard, and he got better grades than Al Gore while he was at it - and Al was smart enough to invent the internet!


It's hard to laugh or generally have a sense of humor when your so angry and paranoid that you see every single idea that does not march lock step with your own as a personal attack


Or maybe it's hard to laugh at someone who is trying way too hard to make things funny.

"He married a Texas girl, I want you to know. Karyn is with us. A West Texas girl, just like me."

Now, if you were fluent in English and heard this instead of seeing it in written form you might have caught that he said he married a west texas girl, just like Bush did.

"When listing continents you list Central America?"

Central America is at least a recognized geographical region!!...America is only recognized as slang for the USA.

"There are 50 btw champ(countries and major territories in America). "

Sorry Champ there are NO countries in America.....you may be confused with saying "The Americas" which includes North, Central, and South America. "America" is commonly used as a shortening of the United States of America. Yes, I am lecturing you on geography....like our prez...you don't seem to have a clue in that area.

"I guess I was wrong to believe that concept could be grasped when we're talking about what countries AREN'T overseas."

Yes, some unknown reason Professor.

A reason such as the fact that they are part of North America like Greenland or the Faulklands in South America's case.

Being an island doesn't stop you from being identified part of a larger continent.


Hmmmmm think one might have to, how should I put this, GO OVER A SEA to get to the countries of the carribean?Yes, but that doesn't mean they are overseas..the general usage of that term would mean Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa to someone from the US.

What was that! Did I just see Ailwon identify Central America in his list of continents?

I did! I did!

Fuck's sake, if you are going to deny saying something at least be smart enough to not quote yourself saying it in the very same post.

I did say America, and I meant America inclusive, as in "The Americas" if you want to nitpick... however you knew what I meant when I wrote it, and then you tried to smart off and correct me on semantics and ended up looking like an idiot yourself by listing Central America.

Inventing an argument indeed...perhaps we should talk about inventing arguments in response to you "nitpicking" the semantics of my post to take attention away from how stupid it was to not realize the US has exports that don't go overseas.

See Halo, thats not possible for Crist0

He cannot entertain ANY viewpoint that disagrees with his. He seeks out opinions that agree with his to affirm his set positions. There is no change, there is no growth, there is only dogma. But to disagree isnt enough. He MUST insult, he cant help himself, its a need born from his own ideological insecurity. Attack anything different from you.
A civil debate with crist0 isnt possible because he views alternative voiced opinions as personal attacks. He gets ANGRY at liberals. He needs to attack, to vilify, to demean and to assault. He is unable to control himself. The Threat must be destroyed. To accept anothers viewpoint as valid, but not agree with it, would be akin to him as admitting he is wrong. A possiblity that would collapse the house of cards.

hi there everyone


i like this comment the most


One of the reasons I like Bush so much is that I can relate with him; he doesn't think he is better than the common person. Everyone says stupid things every so often, Kerry included. The only difference is that I feel detached to Kerry, I cannot relate with him and he has no personality.

this means you trust a official stupid person ?? i mean he talk often bullshit in the public which makes no sense , so why do you believe he really does the right thing if he cannot even express himself with his own words.

just image if he talks the same bullshit in meetings with his fellows in the whitehouse, maybe the whole attack on iraq was a mistake and he meant iran or kuba maybe ? ;)

well , to be serious , i think bush is dangerous because he is just plain stupid.... and his lack of communication skills is probably a big handycap in his everyday work , especially if you think what power he have to change the live of millions of people overnight.

just image how many of his actions are just happened by mistake due to the fact he cannot really say what he wants .....

Now, how can one drive a car from an island to the main land without being shipped?

You also classified the 50 countries in "America" as not being over seas, so I would suggest that you are not aware that the great big things that surrounds every piece of land in the world are made of water and or that the vast majority of cars do not float.

Letterman's Top Ten List: Top Ten George W. Bush Complaints About "Fahrenheit 9/11":

10. That actor who played the President was totally unconvincing

9. It oversimplified the way I stole the election

8. Too many of them fancy college-boy words

7. If Michael Moore had waited a few months, he could have included the part where I get him deported

6. Didn't have one of them hilarious monkeys who smoke cigarettes and gives people the finger

5. Of all Michael Moore's accusations, only 97% are true

4. Not sure - - I passed out after a piece of popcorn lodged in my windpipe

3. Where the hell was Spider-man?

2. Couldn't hear most of the movie over Cheney's foul mouth

1. I thought this was supposed to be about dodgeball

Yes, you most certainly were in North America Buzcam..rejoice, you are an American of sorts!


And no, it is not overseas. Barbados is what, 300 miles from US land?

I believe the term you are trying to find for Barbados is "off shore", not overseas.

You know what's REALLY funny about that statement?

Michael Moore is a college dropout while Bush graduated from Yale and got a Master's from Harvard :)

I really wouldn't go nearly that far, but then I'm not quite as out of touch with reality.

Hey, Lets give Bush credit:



Sure, maybe the "Road Map to Peace" is a complete and utter disaster.
Maybe we acted on false CIA intelligence
Maybe the masterminds of 9/11 are still on the run, and effective to the point were we have national announcements almost bi -weekly warning about impending attacks
Sure, maybe the way we have been "winging it" and ad libing the reconstruction in Iraq is a complete cluster fuck. Like a ghetto tenet janitor with a roll of duct tape trying to fix a broken down furnace.
And ya, he IS this week pushing for a constitutional amendment for the first time ever, excluding a segment of the population from certain rights.
But Bush DID promise before the election that he "is a uniter, not a divider", and good golly, he is right. No, not the US, we are as politically divided as we have ever been, What Bush meant to unite was the Middle East. And Boy howdy has he delivered. ;)
Never before have so many muslims been united and joined in mutal hatred for the United States.
Huzzah to Bush for shattering the inroads we had been making. Huzzah to Bush for reversing the gradual move of Arabs toward seeing beyond the shallow lies and deceptions of islamic hate mongers. Huzzah to Bush for so ineptly handling diplomacy that huge tracts of support were lost to the point of open hostility on the UN floor with allies. WTG LEADERSHIP!
Vote Bush, "He delivers in really ironic ways.":o

And you're right. I don't want someone who is all talk and rhetoric; I want someone who is man enough to take action on things.

Personally, I'd rather have someone who isn't a complete fucking moron.

I ll just point out one thing, I know you guys don't really care about what other countries think of you but a president is supposed to represent your country. Discluding his mental capacities ( he was jet pilot right? That does require quite a few technical skills), I don't think someone that can't spell and has virtually 0 communication skills should represent your country.

On this note, I thought farenheight 9 11 was a fairly interesting movie. Its indeed very biased ( to the point its bothersome sometimes) but its really disturbing to see that such a bunch of agenda oriented people are leading the most powerfull country in the world ( economically and military speaking). Hopefully democrates will win in november for the sake of everyone.

PS: burn, burn mother fuckers burn ! people that have seen the movie will get it ^^

Since various people, even after 11 pages, seem to have missed the entire point of the thread, Kinu has explained it in small words for you. That is why the way bush speaks matters.

And L2, that's the best post I've read since we moved to the new boards,lol.

- :D Bloody good point. Didn't think of it that way. I look at bush in a totally different light now.

What more interesting is to see that supposedly intelligent people can watch a movie like that and think its a valid source of information. His whole premise is based on making you believe that the media is letting you all down by not presenting a big enough liberal bias, and that he's "revealing the truth" that thousands of news reporters and agencies around the world have missed. No... hes taking his own view and making a propaganda piece which presents the partial truth in a fantastical way so that he can make money off of it.

Lap it up dogs.

Well duh, of course he is. He's a political film-maker, aint he?

You're not a liberal Halo. You're an offshoot of the liberal party called the dumbass fringe. :p You see at your convenience you missed the point completely. I didn't criticize your precious man for making the film, I criticized the fact that people use it as fact to base their opinions. You can't hardly have a political discussion about the war or the election here without someone quoting that movie in some way.

Let me just say that I don't know who this crist0 guy thinks he is. He seems to be very heavy handed here on what was supposed to be a funny subject. Really though cristO the man should be putting forth a solid intellectual front to the world.

The president isn't being surprised by the media here. He was trying to put out lucid statements to the world, .. and failed.

Thankfully we now have a better choice. Vote for Michael Moore!

Bush beats Kerry every day in lucid statements. Ever listen to Kerry ramble on in nuance? He had an SUV before he gave it to his family, which made it not his, but then it never really was his in the first place because Teresa bought it for him.
