This Administration "Thinks" and "Believes" too Much.

[true_notes]

In my public speaking class(es) I have taken through the years, there is always an avid attempt to get the students to be straight forward with the audience, and to keep your point punctual and eloquent. Through these teachings, which were great for my own use, I have learned the problematic speech disability of our current administration.

I'm going off on a limb here, but when someone "thinks" or "believes, they are either unsure, or they are lying, which is very characteristic of the current administration.

The truth lies within these evil Cretin's speaking style, and I know I'm not the only one out there who notices these things. Though I do not have time to back this little rant up with quotes, I would like for you guys to try and look up one, just one speech from the administration's history, and you will see my point.

I "think" you will "believe" what I'm saying if you check it out!

1. You are so right. * and the rest of the thugs always use the

terms "I believe..." and "I think ...." Good observation

[BlueStateModerate]

2. No quotes, but I agree.

"Believing" is just trying to pass off an idea with no facts to back it up.

[whistle]

3. ...what Bush thinks and believes and does ....

Bush's "Third-Way" Communitarianism the Worst Way

President George W. Bush speaks conservative words about Christian Right values but then takes pro gay, pro fetal research and weak anti-abortion stances. While Bush is saying he is a Christian he stays silent about ill-advised gay and sodomy Supreme Court decisions, appoints gays to high level Republican positions, calls Islam a religion of peace and attacks Christian leaders publicly who say otherwise.

Bush talks of American freedom but then attempts to greatly reduce individual freedoms permanently in power grabs with Patriot Acts I and II. Bush has declared a war on terror and justifies the martial law attributes of the Patriot Acts by saying the war on terror may be very prolonged if not indefinite. And Bush backs more and more gun control.

Bush says the UN has serious problems that are not helpful to the US interests but then Bush puts the US back into UNESCO and actively promotes the UN and world government that does take American freedoms away...

Bush used his declared need to make the UN more powerful to justify the liberation of Iraq rather than rely on the international law principle of the sovereign national right of the US to use self defense for Iraq’s direct assistance in 1993 WTC, OKC bombing and 9/11 attacks and giving Iraqi WMDS to terrorists who want to use them on Americans.

Bush talks of good sound fiscal policies and financial conservatism but then out sources American high tech jobs to China (backs L1 visa program), proposes legalizing millions of illegal Mexicans and including Mexico’s work force in the US Social Security System, and dramatically expands the size of government in social areas beyond what Americans want, areas that liberal Democrats like Hilary and Bill Clinton and world government socialists are always in favor of. Will Bush be backing a global tax any day now to pay for these world socialism programs and the UN to administer them?

Are Bush’s unprincipled hypocrisies (really lying if you "read his lips" closely) due to what Bush and Karl Rove think need to be done to get just enough liberal Democratic and Conservative Republican votes to get reelected?

Or is Bush really using "1984, Qrwellian double speak" to help implement a brand of capitalistic socialism called communitarianism that Bush, Tony Blair and the Clintons believe must be used to usher in a world government? There is enough information out there now about what Bush thinks and believes and does so that you can read Bush’s mind if you can't bring yourself to "read"“ his lying, hypocritical and duplicitous lips.

If you believe that Bush listens to his communitarianism advisor Don Eberly in the White House and if you believe what Blair and Hilary Clinton have said about communitarism and its equivalent to the “Third Way”, then you might be inclined to believe President Bush is a world government socialist. You also might start to think Bush believes the "ends" of world government justify the Bush "illegal means" even if it means neutering the US Constitution with the Patriot Acts, giving US missile defense to Russia, giving US high tech jobs to China, growing the US government to make Americans totally subservient to the government, staying silent about Supreme Court Judges who now say they base their US decisions on the EU Constitution the Justices helped to write.

4. Good point.

The whole world "thought" Saddam had WMDs...

[hfojvt]

5. I think the opposite is true

I say "I think" and "I do not know" quite a bit, but like Socrates, I see that I know more (although I still lack the certainty of a true believer) than people who think they KNOW. What they "know" is clearly wrong or untrue or full of holes. Yet it is stated with certainty and repeated for audiences of true believers:

"The tax relief is for everyone who pays income taxes -- and it will help our economy immediately: 92 million Americans will keep, this year, an average of almost $1,000 more of their own money. A family of four with an income of $40,000 would see their federal income taxes fall from $1,178 to $45 per year. (Applause.) Our plan will improve the bottom line for more than 23 million small businesses." Jan. 28, 2003

The first line does not contain the words "think" or "believe" and yet it is untrue. I know that personally, because that bill provided 0 tax "relief" for this taxpayer. For me, to "know" means that I "believe" with 90%+ certainty. So by this point, I know Bush is lying based on the evidence of his moving lips.

8. That last sentence

Really cracked me up!

[Stirk]

6. I know what you mean. It's a symptom of one of their core problems:

They seem to think that interpretation is everything. There is no objective reality, only spin. They certainly sold their Iraq invasion with spin. It's their response to everything.

The problem is that eventually, reality overtakes spin. We're going to see that happen in a big way if they reinstate the draft.

7. Righto. You are entitled to your opinion,

but you are not entitled to your own facts. Even the shrubbies.

9. The Administration is crazy, stupid and "believes" in a false form of god.

It boggles the mind how insanely retarded they are, and willing to kill people that it almost makes one want to plead permanent insanity! :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:
