bush regarding Cindy: "I understand her anguish"

I think those who advocate immediate withdrawal from not only Iraq but the Middle East would be -- are advocating a policy that would weaken the United States. So I appreciate her right to protest. I understand her anguish. I met with a lot of families. She doesn't represent the view of a lot of the families I have met with. And I'll continue to meet with families.

oh really you prick? maybe you do, you DECREED IT, times one thousand and seventy. you understand her anguish? you should CHOKE on those lying words asshole. no, you DON'T understand her anguish, and you never will cause your last name is bush and your daughters are safe unless they enlist, or go awol like daddy.

oh and.....

2. You don't UNDERSTAND anguish, you empathize or feel with it
and I don't think he has empathy.

5. The ONLY way he'd understand
would be if some other untouchable asshole, had one of his daughters killed. After that have a bunch of dittoheads, support his child's killer, and call him an asshole for wanting justice, then he MIGHT come close. Surprise, I don't see it happening.

6. If you understood, you wouldn't say her efforts
are weakening America.. Instead you would understand that it's YOU who is weakening Cindy's country.

10. Notice how he says "immediate" before "withdrawal" now?
Someone needs to call him on his placing those words in Cindy's mouth.

He's finally tucking in his tail.

Pissant.

11. he only understands he's losing his throne.- and to him
that causes anguish.

When he buries Jenna or Barbara jr. due to the illegal, immoral actions of anyone in the Peace movement, then maybe he can talk about 'anguish' and understanding.

He's emotionally bancrupt.-

12. .....
in the streets of baghdad
and in the roadways of iraq
soldiers die
defending bush's oil.

standing on the field of Iowa, or Ohio, or ...anywhere America
bush says he understands the anguish

expressed

in the fields of crawford, texas
by
mothers
fathers
brothers
sisters
who
pull from their hearts
the dagger of pain
which
bush's greed for oil
has adorned their lives with.

bush wants to keep up
the happenings
in the streets of baghdad
and in the roadways of iraq
where
mothers
fathers
brothers
sisters
aunts
uncles
children
are killed
because of
bush's greed for oil
and his need for power and control.

in the fields of crawford, texas
hearts joined in pain
speak with one voice
through their tears.


they ask bush,
why won't you answer my question,
the one you say you understand?
why won't you answer my question
as to the anguish you have caused in my life?
why won't you answer my question?
why did you kill my child,mother,brother,father,uncle,aunt,sister,husband?

why did you kill so many innocent iraqis too?
what is this freedom you say our soldiers are spreading with a rifle
and bullets pointed at innocent iraqi civilians --
and bullets and rifles which in an effort to free themselves from our american occupation boomerang their way back towards them?

bush throws their words back at them
venomous arrows coming out of his lips
when he repeats that america honors its heroes
while the heroes' mothers ask of bush,
why did you kill him? why did he die

while ...
from a veteran's platform in utah, or Iowa, or Ohio,
or anywhere America, bush repeats,
america honors its heroes,he says,
who died defending america's honor...

defending america from what???the questions echo out in crawford in the fields which hold CAMP CASEY,
from the lips of Cindy Sheehan
and the lips of every mother, father, brother, sister, husband,wife, aunt, uncle, cousin there they echo through infinity... defending america from what?.. from......what.....?

bush's answer of understood anguish is this,

i will stay the course
with your children
as my pawns

bush throws back at them
venomous words which pierce the heart of mothers, fathers, husbands, wives,daughters, sons, uncles, aunts.

bush rides
his bike
on the pain of
mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, children, uncles, aunts across america ...

bush rides
his bike
in his prairie chapel fields and
on a path in idaho ...

bush rides through the bones
and blood of america's young
and the tears of america's old.

in the fields of crawford,
a woman says
she
supports bush.

because

he is a man of faith.
why would he lie?
why would he not send soldiers to iraq now?
why ... would her two year old son have to go to iraq
if those who were dying today were not so dying?
she asks.


across america
bush rides his bike
on a path
strewn with the blood and bones
of america's young,
the tears
and pain of america's old,
the deceit
and lies
his greed spreads as it divides
and tramples america's own.

bush's deceit has bought
the trust
of a two year old's mother,

she defends bush's war ... saying,

let them (the children of those other parents) die now

so her two year old son
won't have to die
years from now ...she says.

bush,

he rides across america
on a bicycle
built on a chain of
deception
lies
blood
bones
greed

and on
the raped trust
of a two year old's
mom.

18. One of the few things a rich spoiled boy like Bush doesn't have
is empathy! How can he "understand her anguish", when he still have his daughters.
