Bush: Voters Have Spoken On Iraq Policy


"WASHINGTON -- President Bush says there is no need to hold anyone in his administration accountable for what has happened in Iraq because the voters have already spoken.

"We had an accountability moment, and that's called the 2004 elections," Bush said in an interview with The Washington Post for Sunday's editions. "The American people listened to different assessments made about what was taking place in Iraq, and they looked at the two candidates, and chose me."

2. He'll never take responsibility for anything
Apparently, he doesn't have to. Oh, and what are the approval ratings for the war now? He's going to go down in history as the worst "president" we've ever had.

4. Bush probably does not get it
but the accountability moment for any Chief Executive is NOT a FUCKING election, but the judgement of history... where exactly do you think Bush will fall?

Right now lower than whale shit, but hey... that is neither here or there.

5. You know what pisses me off?
Many good people get screwed and lose their jobs for no good reason or get screwed in other ways when they work hard. Bush has fucked up repeatedly throughout the course of his life and he not only does not get held accountable for his mistakes, but he gets exhalted either because or in spite of them.

7. Not Our Call...
I hate Bush, too, but his reckoning day is coming.

He cannot sow and not reap. Bush will reap what he's sowed and
that 10-fold of what he's sown.

The true Lord will punish him---He will---but in His timing and His way.

14. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
I have had enough of this. People can fuck up like nothing, they can ruin other people's lives and they keep going with their lives like nothing ever happened. They must all answer for what they have done.

6. Not what my GOP friends say ......
My GOP friends say (realize I am talking about Midwestern corporate management types transplanted to Silicon Valley California - but their hearts are still in the Red States and Battleground States of the Midwest)---

1. This was a vote in support of the initial, original Afghanistan - Taliban - Al Qaida policy.

2. This was also a vote in support of the visible effects of the Department of Homeland Security (typical quote "They haven't hit us in the US since 9/11." )

3. Among my GOP friends -- they are divided about Iraq - but a significant fraction say "Viet Nam Quagmire - De Ja Vue All Over Again"

4. Among my GOP friends - they say that "Gay Marriage" is a diversionary side issue (but realize, my GOP friends have lived in California for an average of 15 years).

5. Among my GOP friends - most felt that the Swifties were lying --- Kerry should have hit them hard

9. 'Hey, you knew I was a snake when you picked me up".
Remember that old parable about he turtle and the snake? You know, where the turtle agrees to help the snake accross the river, but the snake bites him halfway across, leaving them both to drown?

That's Bush. He's essentially saying that the suffering he causes is our fault, because we let him do it. It's a bit sociopathic, really.

11. They drag us down w/ them
And they probably won't even see a problem when the country goes to hell. If one really loved his/her country, he/she would want the best for it.
