"sober judgment" must prevail - George Bush
First let me just laugh my ass off
:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:


OSAN AIR BASE, South Korea - His war policies under siege at home, President Bush said Saturday there would be no early troop withdrawal because "sober judgment" must prevail over emotional calls to end the military mission before Iraq is stabilized.

"We will fight the terrorists in Iraq. We will stay in the fight until we have achieved the victory that our brave troops have fought for," Bush told thousands of American troops spilling out of a cold hangar at this U.S. military installation 40 miles south of Seoul. "The defense of freedom is worth our sacrifice."

1. One question: How will we know when we have achieved victory?
Tell me W, how will we know? Answer my simple question.

2. do ya ever think...
that he REALLY believes this shit he says? We all know how evil and crazy it is, but sometimes what he says is so outlandish that I think he really believes it.

7. I think this is just
the way he operates. *I made the decision, I refuse to admit I was wrong, I won't listen to anyone who disagrees with me, I will stay the course because if I made the decision it has to be right* all the while waiting and waiting for someone to bail him out in a manner that he can save face.

He mistakes his belligerence with courage, typical of all 3 year olds.

JMHO

9. When my boys were 3 they had a lot better judgment.
Speaking of 3 year olds, when my oldest was in pre-school he used to sing Lee Greenwood's song like this...

"I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm three."

Cracked me up to no end.

15. That is lovely!
I had one who used to always want to see two things. The Tatum of Livery and the Wizzer De Boz. I think he may have both now.

That is precious, thanks for the morning smile and warm fuzzies. :hug:

3. If we don't fight the tearists in Korea, then we'll have to fight them at
home. Or some other incoherent argument...

5. I'll say it again
The Iraq war has CAUSED more terrorism than lessened it....and the troops are fighting mostly insurgency against the occupation.

Bush policies have justified Bin Laden's crazy statements about the US seeking to control the entire middle east.

And I'll remind us all that Iraq had NOTHING to do with Al quaida or the attack on September 11.

It is disingenuous to use Iraq as a battleground for something they had nothing to do with. THAT A IS SOBER JUDGEMENT. And it is a war crime......

8. "The defense of freedom is worth our sacrifice."
OUR sacrifice? That's rich! How dare he include himself in that statement about sacrifice! :grr: :wtf: exactly is he sacrificing? Not his life, not his anything! :mad: Nor are any of his have and have more base, making any thing that could even remotely resemble sacrifice! Drunken little pissant! "Sober judgment" is NOT a term that should be used by him!

16. What's a two-pronged triad? We have a Freudian slip and an oxymoron.

Especially coming from braindead cells and a moving lips.

20. Does this mean he is reading My Pet Goat again ?
That sure was some sober judgment, George. Sitting and reading a kids book while the Nation was under attack.
