Somebody hand this brain trust a mirror: I couldn’t believe my ears when Bush said this in his “Things are great in Iraq” speech yesterday.
And my decisions on troop levels will be made based upon the conditions on the ground, and the recommendations of our military commanders — not artificial timetables set by politicians here in Washington, D.C.
Hello? Anybody home? Will someone please tell our president that he holds the highest — let me just pause for emphasis here — elected office in the land, which he “won” by running against other people who ran, and these people who run for offices in our country are referred to as “politicians.”
Also, not to put too fine a point on it, but the White House is located right where all those politicians are, in Washington, D.C. That means Bush, who lives in the White House (for now), is in Washington, D.C.
Let’s review: the decisions on troop levels in Iraq will be made a politician in Washington, D.C.
Jeez.



Um, I think he’s insinuating that his timetables won’t be “artificial”. I don’t think he meant he’s not a politician in D.C. Not everything Bush says is a flub.
He doesn’t think he’s a politician, nor does he think the Congress has any relevance to himself at all. It’s pretty obvious that in his pickled brain he really does believe he’s king - and unaccountable to anyone. Like everything else of importance, “they”ve keep the fact that kings can lose their heads from him as well.
Key here is “conditions on the ground” and the “recommendations of our military commanders”. So, how are those conditions going, since by all accounts it’s our presents there to begin with that caused this disaster.
Definition of “insanity”: Keep doing the same thing over and over again and expect a different result.
bush is just all about death and destruction, he is the dark prince of evil.
“Um, I think he’s insinuating that his timetables won’t be “artificial”. I don’t think he meant he’s not a politician in D.C. Not everything Bush says is a flub.”
So you believe Bush will have a “natural” time table? Maybe one that is discovered growing in a tree burl in the woods with dates and times that have grown into the bark?
Or is it maybe a “supernatural” time table revealed by god?
I myself believe all time tables are “artificial” and parsing that part out of the sentence makes much less sense than George Bush pretending he is not a politician in Washington D.C.
Self annointed kings aren’t politicians.
Bush is different. Perhaps because he is a special ex-bubble boy forced to accept War President responsibilities and being an imbecile. He is denying what he is.
No no no, this is definitely about one man, who IS a politician, setting himself apart from other politicians. I think he wants people to think of him as a ‘regular guy’ and not part of the hubub of normal politics. Of course, this is a total PR sham, but one that has been working for him so far.
A naturally occurring timetable…
What can i say,the man has a pound of spam for brain.
bush should be dressed in baby dipper and put up for adoption in Iraq,i am sure many would love to smother him in his crib.
diaper
Can someone please explain to me why we are still paying congress?
What the hell do we need them for? We can get a rubber stamp much cheaper at Office Depot.
Bush is uploaded with a limited number of platitudes; the closest (rough ) match is usually provided. After gauging the wind, various WH spokespeople clarify his mistatements. A lof of inferring is always necessary.
Lord Mush still thinks he can get away with such inanity as playing himself up as folksy red state kinda common man of the people. Let’s puke together!
I wouldn’t say that Bush was “elected”. He seized power in a bloodless coup 6 years ago, then stole a second election 2 years ago using vote tampering and suppression.
For those felonies alone, he should be removed from power and prosecuted.
Worst F***ing President Ever!!!
