Dispicable: Bush uses hurricane to give prime Iraq speech
President Bush spent about 30 seconds talking about perhaps the hurricane of the century....and is going on 5 to 6 and more at this moment about Iraq. How disgusting for him to use a tragedy to give a political speech.

1. To our "fearless leader", all roads lead to Iraq, and
all roads from 9/11 to lead to Iraq.

Lewis Carroll would love this bit of illogic.

2. Even a freeper thought it was inappropriate
Anyone else annoyed by President Bush blathering on about Iraq after his comments about New Orleans? We have an impending catastrophe here in the U.S. - it seemed to me to be a very inoppurtune time for GWB to start spouting his general "support Iraq" stump speech.

6. Talk about SELFISH
Here you are complaining about this country circling the drain when there's BILLIONS yet to be squandered over there (in Iraq). SHEESH!

5. Further proof that he is an alien in an Edgar Suit (MIB reference)
and his messages are just prerecorded propaganda.

9. LOL! Another "Hugh" reply! These people are truly dolts.
To: Pravious

The news from the President on Iraq was very important to say the least. They have agreed on a Constitution that ensures that everyone is equal under the law regardless of race, religion, or gender. That's hugh and series. I'd say he had a pretty good audience to get the news out since it doesn't seem that it would have any other way since it's all Katrina all the time.

It's hugh and series! Holy shit!

10. I saw that! CNN builds the speech up as a response to the CAT5
hurricane and then he spends 2 minutes talking about the hurricane and the rest of the "speech" talking about Iraq. * really is a troll! :puke:
