Bush looks like friggin' Mussolini !

[kentuck]

He's on the TV at Ft Campbell with the troops. He's standing there with his nose stuck up in the air so high that if it rained, he would need to wear an egg shell over his nose to keep from drowning. Now they are chanting USA! USA! USA! Now he says he is "glad to be back".
He's putting on his best military posture and damn if he don't look like fuckin' Mussolini. Why can't the people see through his tepid little charade? I have never felt so bad about our nation. As if we need some military dictator to keep us secure...

9. Actually...

I think I prefer il Dunce. :evilgrin:

22. Hi shade!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

2. Is he playing dress-up today?

If so, what is the latest costume?

[Kahuna]

7. Of course! He has on some kind of military jacket..

with wings emblems and an American flag on it.

[alfredo]

3. You know the troops are coached on how to respond.

You know if someone says or does anything not sanctioned, they will be in deep shit.

[bluedog]

6. yea, last time "Hoo Rahs"

practiced before he came.pretty sick if you ask me....

[alfredo]

25. It's not much different than those phony news segments for

Medicare.

4. He's a chickenhawk dictator! How dare you give

military dictators a bad name!

[kentuck]

5. Americans eat that shit up with a big old tablespoon....

That cowardly chickenhawk that checked the box that he did not wish to go and fight overseas, now is a big heroic leader saving our nation from the scourge of terrorism. He is vicariously taking the glory of the military conquests of the 101st in Iraq.

[JohnyCanuck]

12. Glory indeed

He is vicariously taking the glory of the military conquests of the 101st in Iraq.

And considering the decrepid state of the Iraqi military, that's like Vince McMahon of WWE basking in glory for Stone Cold Steve Austin busting the chops of Niles Crane from Frasier.

27. just as he stole the spotlight from the USS Abraham Lincoln ...

He coasts in, within sight of land, so he can pretend to be the warrior-president leading his troops home from battle. Meanwhile his prancing around in the flightsuit actually delays the arrival of the carrier, so the families of those on board have to wait that much longer.

8. Hey, the more the chimp is lying

the faster the stock market is droping...

I think there is a correlation

[EV1Ltimm]

10. what a mook...

[BootinUp]

13. LOL n/t

[VOX]

21. Ha! The No-Good, The Bad, and the Definitely Ugly!

:toast:

11. "Freedom is the future of every nation."

gee, what a wonderful thing to look forward to.

[kentuck]

14. He's in prime campaign form...

I can see clearly why the military should always be under civilian control...No offense to the soldiers, but they are not mentally equipped to handle leaders such as George W Bush in a rational and non-military manner... They believe in their Commander in Chief... It validates their putting their lives on the line for the lies of their great leader...

[Forkboy]

15. "It's been a terrible blow to my life looking like Mussolini, you know.

Especially when I was a kid, you know, I was about seven, right, and I was down the Youth Club, you know, dancing away, right, like in the 'sixties, doing the Twist,...you know. And, em, there was this girl, right, and she comes up to me, and she goes,"'Ere! Are you Mussolini?" I said, "Emmm...Yeah." She says, "I thought you was dead." I says, "No, it was just me day off, you know." So she pulled me over the dance floor and butted me in the face! I said, "What's that for?" She said, "That's for the invasion of Crete!"

16. Why does that moron depress me so ??

Could someone explain that in 100 paragraphs or less? :(

[maddezmom]

17. does he believe the bullshit he spews?

or does he just read it? :shrug:

[Cleita]

20. I don't understand what he's saying. Does he?

eom

[Cleita]

18. Have you noticed, he only speaks in front of military groups?

He won't speak in front of any group that can ask him questions. Why is he celebrating the anniversary of the invasion of Iraq today, two days before the actual anniversary? Is he afraid of running into protestors?

I hate it that he and his neo-con buddies have co-opted our nation's flag as their's.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

26. Military or American Enterprise Institute.

That way no uncomfortable heckling or protestors.

Because the whole shrub presidency is a propaganda set piece.

Haven't seen it recently (don't know if they've given it up) but a frequent tactic of bushroveco when appearing in front of groups like AEI would be to have some kind of Orwellian slogan repeated on the wall behind him to be visible in the photo, like "Job creation."

[Redleg]

29. Military, American Enterprise Institute, or Cincinnati.

We have so many damned right-wing Bush lovers here in the Cincy area it makes me sick.

[The empressof all]

19. my little rant

I can't stand to look at him. He makes me sick. He's an idiot who believes that repeating the same old empty words makes them true. I'm sorry but for the life of me I just can not understand how any one in their right mind believes anything he says. He's an idiot, a liar and an imbecile. (sorry do not mean to offend any inbeciles out there).

[DeepModem Mom]

24. I had almost the same thought -- and with the AWOL issue,

I suppose, behind him, Bush can dress up and play CIC, without those pesky questions about his skipping out on his Guard duty, while these soldiers, who offer up their lives to military service, cheer.

28. "an egg shell over his nose"

What an unforgettable image! Thanks, Kentuck.

Of course, given how big his schnoz looks (perhaps as a result of his jamming his finger up his nostril to the fourth joint -- no, I won't post the link to that video, some of us haven't had dinner yet) .... he would need to borrow one of these to have it fit properly.
