Bush Radio Address:To place one's hand on the Bible...humbling experience

[truthpusher]

Bush Radio Address: http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2005/01/20050122.html

Good morning.

My fellow Americans, earlier this week I had the honor of taking, for the second time, the oath of office as your President. The inaugural ceremony is simple, yet its meaning is profound. Every four years, the American people hold an inauguration to reaffirm our faith in liberty, and to celebrate the democratic institutions that preserve it. To place one's hand on the Bible and swear the oath is a humbling experience, and a reminder of the high trust and great responsibility that the presidency brings. With deep appreciation for your support, and mindful of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead, I'm eager to begin the work of a new term.

In the years since I first swore to preserve, protect and defend our Constitution, our nation has been tested. Our enemies have found America more than equal to the task. In response to attacks on our home soil, we have captured or killed terrorists across the Earth. We have taken unprecedented steps to secure our homeland from future attacks, and our troops have liberated millions from oppression.

At home, thanks to pro-growth policies and the hard work of the American people, we overcame a recession and created over 2 million new jobs in the past year alone. Now we move forward. We remain in a war the United States will continue to lead -- fighting terrorists abroad, so we do not have to face them here at home. We will strive to keep the world's most dangerous weapons out of the hands of terrorists and tyrants. And our nation will stand by the peoples of Afghanistan and Iraq as they build free and democratic societies in their own lands -- because when America gives its word, America must keep its word.

As I stated in my inaugural address, our security at home increasingly depends on the success of liberty abroad. So we will continue to promote freedom, hope and democracy in the broader Middle East -- and by doing so, defeat the despair, hopelessness and resentments that feed terror.

[ET Awful]

1. I bet he'd find it more humbling to put both hands on the Bible, open it

up and actually read it instead of ignoring what it says.

[rvgwinn]

7. Personally

I think he's on nonreality drugs.

[DELUSIONAL]

29. You beat me to it -- when I read the head line I thought

I doubt that bushie has actually read the bible from cover to cover.

He certainly doesn't know the Jesus Christ of the bible.

[Bullshot]

45. He says things like this because it pushes his backers' buttons

and they think he's wonderful for saying it.

He's no more knowledgable or humbled by religion than the most hideous serial killer.

[Thor_MN]

47. * got stuck on Begining

He managed "In the" by sounding them out but everything else was too hard for him. As mythologies go, the Bible isn't too bad. But when you base your entire belief system on what other people tell you is written in a book, you are really setting yourself up for disaster.

[Redstone]

2. "The inaugural ceremony is simple"

Just like you are.


Redstone

[neverforget]

3. Bush is as phony as a three dollar bill.

:puke:

[jdj]

53. yes, it's only humbling the first time, W. That feeling passes.

Eventually, you'll work up to actually opening it.

Then, when you learn to read, you can use the bible for more p.r. bullshit. Just think of the possibilities.

[getting old in mke]

4. Hmmmmm

Wasn't he concerned that he'd be struck by lightning?

[blm]

Our security at home depended on you to READ the Hart-Rudman Report

on Global Terror that was handed to you on Jan.30, 2001.

You refused.

Thousands of Americans were murdered, mostly by Saudis, on Sept.11, 2001. Almost 9 months AFTER you were handed a 21/2 year study on global terror.

Now you use that event to line the pockets of your war-profiteer cronies with NO concern to the Saudi role in the attack.

Bush is a TRAITOR to this country.

[Mad_Dem_X]

22. Amen! People seem to forget

that he was given that report when he took office, and that his adminstration did NOTHING. 9-11 may not have happened if the s.o.b. had actually done his fricken job!!!:grr:

[BlueEyedSon]

5. Would be more humbling to put your hand on a FRIGGING NEWSPAPER.

[roenyc]

6. If i become republican can i live in

the same happy secure prosperous America he lives in?

[notadmblnd]

8. It wasn't humbleness he felt, it was fear....

fear that god might strike him dead.

[Stevious]

18. fear...

Of his limo being pegged with eggs, or rotten fruit. Or being stuck by a hijacked plane. There were more cops lining the parade route than there were spectators.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

9. "In the years since I swore to preserve protect and defend

the Constitution, I've done my darndest to tear that document to shreds....."

[hippiechick]

10. I've heard that he requested G. Washington's Masonic Bible in 2000

... for the Inaugural. Does that mean GWB is also a Mason ?
And if so, from what I've read (which is admittedly confusing stuff), then everything this POS stands for is 100% AGAINST what the Masons are supposed to be about.

Anyone able to shed some light for me ?

Gracias ~

[truthpusher]

13. That was just the cover...inside was the Necronimican. n/t

[hippiechick]

16. THAT makes more sense ...

After all, everything else about this group of fools is one thing on the outside, and something entirely different underneath !

[ashmanonar]

23. LOL

i love your choice of words. "shed some light", that's gotta be a subconscious choice (the masons harbored the illuminati (enlightened ones) of the renaissance era, from the catholic church. the dollar bill is full of illuminati and masonic symbols, and most of the early leaders of the country were masons if not illuminati, plus there's some connection between banking and law firms, and the illuminati--and GHWB is in thick with the banks)

it wouldn't surprise me that he claims (in secret) to be a mason, cuz daddy's one and he's gotta do better than daddy.

but your'e right, everything bush is for is against the masonic principles. he's a disgrace to everyone who comes in contact with him.

[hippiechick]

27. ... and that's what I don't understand ...

I've been reading 'Talisman' by Graham Hancock and Robert Bauval, and they go all the way back to the Cathars and the Hermeticists ... and trace the 'counter-religions' forward to the appearance of the Freemasons in the 17th <?> century.

If my limited understanding of the principles of Masonry are correct, how can ANY member of the BFEE - especially someone with hands as bloody as Poppy - be a Mason ?

Thanks for the feedback :hi:

[ashmanonar]

28. the masons aren't really what they used to be anymore

it's more like an elk lodge now...not the old rites of enlightenment...i'm sure they still have those sorts of lodges some places, but it's getting so the masons are just a country club now.

the masons are a lot older than the 17th century, btw. read Uriel's Machine by Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas. they do a pretty good job of tracing the masons and illuminati throughout history, going possibly back into prehistory. (stonehenge and the barrows in england, the pyramids, etc.)

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

11. The Oaf of Office took the oath of office, but not as MY President

[unblock]

12. bush proclaims self "humblest man ever",

awards self the honorary cross of modesty.

[Solly Mack]

14. on yeah, cause nobody's ever lied after swearing on the bible

barf

[jokerman93]

15. AAAAAAAA!

He pulled the mind-scramble on us! He opened his eyes and talked!

:crazy:

[ashmanonar]

17. oops.

they put the wrong bible under his hand, it was the satanic bible...

oh, wait....:evilfrown:

[Itchinjim]

19. I fully execpt this asshole

to give the State of the Union address while speaking in tounges.

[madrchsod]

20. sorry i worked pretty hard this week

i don`t think i can shovel anymore shit...

[truthpusher]

21. It's endless isn't it? n/t

[fooj]

24. What a crock! Didn't his mommy tell him it's a sin to decieve...

while swearing on the bible? What a liar! Geez...because of this monster, Americas word means nothing! The sad irony is that we ARE facing terrorists here at home. THE SHRUB AND CO. have become the world's most feared and hated terrorists! "Despair, hopelessness and resentments"...sounds to me like we've got that right here, right now!

[Orsino]

25. It's especially humbling...

...when one's hand bursts into flames upon contact with the Good Book.

[Charlie Brown]

26. Bush celebrating killing people has always bothered me

Even for a Republican, it's extremely sadistic.

[ecoalex]

31. bus* is one sick pup

he is one disgusting lying S.O.B.

He was not elected, both times , it was not our fault.

The mendacity of the mistaken neo con plans will eventually sicken enough people, like Vietnam, and the people will rise up above the lies and fraud , and demand change. When , is the question .

[BiggJawn]

30. EVERY day this week, SOME kind of trash about the "piety" of Shrub.

So when is Mad Max gonna produce "The Passion of The Chimp"?

Every damn day this week, either on NPR (den of whores) or the MSM, some trash about just how pious Shrubya is. So he went to church on a Thursday morning, BFD. They wheeled Billy Graham in to speak. Franky Graham was there. They brought out a historic Bible for him to use for a prop (OK-here's proof that there is no God. Bush should have burst into flames while touching that book, but he didn't.)

Every DAY! The Media sounds more and more like TBN or EWN.

How long before Judy Woodruff and Tucker Carlson and Nazi Pat start injecting "Praise JEEEZush!" into their reporting?

I don't wanna live in a country like that. You shouldn't want to, either.

[Kolesar]

33. US News has him with his superimposed halo on their cover this week

[Paulie]

34. It's not a halo, its the presidential seal

The picture is like from 3 years ago.

[BiggJawn]

40. Yeah, but it sure as hell gets the point across, doesn't it?

It really doesn't matter if it was from his Texas Ranger days, the important thing is that Bush has a "Halo" around his head, and it wasn't photoshopped.

"Gawd's Chosen Son"...

How's that "AntiChrist" thing work again?

[Kolesar]

48. A glorious collection of bush halos from www.bushislord.com

www.bushislord.com

[BiggJawn]

42. Oh, I have to go throw up now....

See what I mean? You heard it here first, folks, the Canonization of "Saint Shrubya"...

[Dr Fate]

32. Try READING it. n/t

n/t

[truthpusher]

35. I read it while listening to it while looking at a photo of Bush!

now I'm cured! Bush is the best president ever!

[The Zanti Regent]

36. YOU KILLED MY SON, MY ONLY CHILD!

And Your Pal Kerry made a Bonesman deal to keep you and your fellow Nazis in power!

[truthpusher]

37. Are you saying...

...your son was killed?

[politicasista]

51. Stop hating on Kerry!

and that Skulls and Bones crap! :mad: :mad:

[The Zanti Regent]

52. NO

Kerry voted to send troops, including my only child,

Kerry voted to use force.

I will NEVER forgive his pro war vote that sent my only child to die. and I will NEVER forgive him for deliberately throwing the election to Bush

[alfredo]

38. Humbling for him, Humiliating for us. eom

[genieroze]

39. One hand on the Bible and the other

[truthpusher]

43. I've missed the victory salute...thanks!

[Lugnut]

41. Yeah right, George

You should be ashamed of yourself.

[SoCalDem]

44. A mumbling experience is closer to the truth...n/t

.

[Pegleg Thd]

46. If he had to swear

to tell the truth it would scare the sh** out of him...

[MisterP]

49. he had big blisters all night on his little hand

[AndyTiedye]

50. The Really Humbling Part Is Having the Bible Burst Into Flames

when he touched it.

(OK, that didn't really happen, but it should have, if God exists
and was actually paying attention)

[Bzzzz]

54. Shrub...

probably got an erection.
