Who needs a "laugh"? : Bush Seeks U.N. Support on Democracy Today

Bush Seeks U.N. Support on Democracy By JENNIFER LOVEN, Associated Press Writer
Wed Sep 14, 3:29 AM ET



NEW YORK - Before skeptical world leaders, President Bush is seeking to sell the global community on his blueprint for spreading democracy in Iraq and elsewhere, overhauling the United Nations and expanding free trade.

There is broad opposition to the U.S.-led war in Iraq among the more than 160 presidents, prime ministers and kings gathered for three days of U.N. General Assembly meetings. Many leaders also would rather hear Bush finally relent and support an international treaty on global warming or promise to donate foreign aid at a level more proportionate to other rich nations.

But in his annual speech to the U.N. gathering Wednesday, Bush was hoping to impress upon his audience the urgency of addressing the world's problems as he sees them.

"This is a time of great challenge for America and the world," White House press secretary Scott McClellan said. "We must work together in common purpose to advance freedom, ease suffering, and lay the foundations of lasting peace for our children and grandchildren."

Bush's Iraq style of democracy is huge winner ...ask the people of Iraq.

Bush's blueprint for spreading his version of "peace" is available for all to see, in Iraq.

Everyone understands what a miserable fuck up he is.

Does this freak understand that he has a colossal failure going on, and that he has no credibility on improving the world or bringing democracy to the world.

He's failed. The world knows it. Apparently, he's the only one who doesn't. The man is oblivious to the fact that he'll look like psycho clown boy up there.

PS---What's his next speech...a two-hour dissertation at the American Meteorological Society titled "How to be an effective leader and a quick responder when a hurricane strikes your country"?
