I'm sick of all this "Chimp in a Bubble" shit....
Edited on Mon May-24-04 07:29 PM by smirkymonkey
Is anyone else tired of all these hyper-planned, over-rehearsed, canned audience, no dissent, f**ing Chimp so-called speeches?

Has any other president been so shielded from the public? When are the debates? When will we get to challenge him, call him on his bullshit? These televised "appearances" are completely pointless.

I can't take this sham any more!! Am I alone in this??

1. No. Not alone
He does not have a single fucking clue about what is going on in the world. Not a single fucking clue.

Today voice of america reported that alSadr has a 32% strong approval rating in Iraq and a 42% moderate approval rating. That is higher than bush's rating.

Bush is trying to kill or capture him.

IraqNam is gone. It is history. It will be a killing field until we are expelled.

2. Campaign Appearance
Taxpayers should never have paid for AFI to get him to and from this speech. It was nothing more than a campaign appearance with a friendly captive audience.

Does anyone else in this world enunciate like he does?

6. Will he ever be publicly challenged?
The media has ensured that no member of the public ever sees him in a non-staged (in his favor) situation.

If Kerry had been there to challenge him, his joke of an address would have gone down in flames. This way, people who don't know what's going on actually think that he sounds reasonable.

Will they ever allow him to debate Kerry fair & square? I'm not sure we will ever see the day.

3. Kerry is going to kick his ass in the debates.
He'll make shrub sound like a third-grader speaking English as a second language. I can't until the next round of insipid bushisms evolve this summer.

5. Hey, hold on...my 3rd-grader speaks 3 languages perfectly fine!
How dare you compare her to that blithering idiot!

:P

9. I want to apologize
earlier today I made reference to schrubs 3rd or 4th grade mentality, I'm so sorry, he's is a MORON. I wonder what part of that word he doesn't understand? probably the mor more likely the on. Nothing like crow, what f**king ship did he come over on? He couldn't have gotten here by land. What a disgrace.

16. You are so right...
Edited on Mon May-24-04 10:07 PM by Ilsa
I expected more from a Harvard MBA though.

Actually, a more accurate comparison would be to an adult having difficulties mastering English as a second language (or any second language, as it is more difficult in adulthood).

10. If I wasn't raised baptist
I would make a bet there will be no debates.

11. Did he debate Gore?
I can't remember. And some clown on a Righty message board says "Bush will wipe the floor with Kerry in the debates just like he did to Al Gore." I don't think that even happened, did it?

14. And Gore clearly won
Unless, of course, you were listening to CNN/Faux the day after, in which case * was hailed as "articulate, intelligent, and passionate" or something else equally absurd.

17. Now that someone has brought this up...
I was raised baptist also, but I won't participate in Baptist worship. What is funny though is that I have no inclination towards gambling either, the one last vestige of Baptistic indoctrination I cannot overcome!

4. I hate it. But his keepers are in a real dillemma.
How the hell do you permit an illiterate fool with low average intelligence to speak before an intellectual and questioning audience? Can't be done. It's political suicide.

7. I'm also so tired of this crap
that I feel like holding my breath until the veins in my nose explode!

Talk about kiss ass! The same military brass that give the chimp a standing O will probably slam him in private on the way out.

As much as I respect the military, I have such a tough time with the mind programming that is part and parcel of that life. I'm from a family of veterans and heroes, but dropped out of the Citadel after punching a senior cadet who commanded me to do a, shall we say, obscene thing. the fact that I played football was probably the only reason they gave me their "general discharge".

Whether it's religion or military, I just tend to naturally resist the programming.

Consider the military brass at the War College. These are all people who are successes in their line of work, right? Yet, in order to attain those positions they have probably had to kiss more ass than even politicians. Country right or wrong. Act on faith (as I heard growing up in the Catholic Schools for 13 years) F em all!

Sorry, just had to rant, I guess. Thanks for being part of my Monday evening. :-)

12. I am sick of the Chimp's bushit!
If a Democratic President did even one tenth of what * has done, the repubs would be calling for his head on a platter! In fact if a Democratic Pres. had risen to power under the circumstances that * did, the last three years wouldn't have happened! Impeachment proceedings would have been implemented immediately!

13. You're not alone
It's amazing how this rotweiller continues to pull of this charade......I was so furious after this speech i wrote MSNBC AND CNN.

He has to even invent his audiences...sometimes the public is so stupid. I want Joe public America to hear and see his speeches...dammit.

15. Yes...I'm tired of him trying to "Blow wind up my ass too"!
I look forward to the day someone qualified to "Blow wind up my ass" gets in the WH. I want to be teased and pleased. I haven't had an orgazism in almost 4 years.
