'WE ARE AT WAR" Now lemme get Barney and start my Vacation
WTF?? We at war or we not at war? If we at war....like Bush said we are...WTF he going on a ONE MONTH VACATION? Didn't he learn from 2001?

1. Hmm, how many 1-month vacations did FDR take?
Or how many nights and weekends did JFK refuse to do?
Or how many hours of the day did Lincoln devote to execise?
How many times did Clinton knock off at 5:00 p.m.?

2. He's not going on vacation for a month...
He's going on vacation for FIVE WEEKS! And yes, he made it perfectly clear that we ARE at war. But when did that ever stop him? Even before bin Laden hit us on 9/11, when Bush got that Aug. 6th PDB, he STAYED on vacation. What a strong leader! :sarcasm:

4. He's telling us it's a war where WE don't SACRIFICE
It's war, but not one that is going to make anyone miss their vacation or pay taxes or get hurt, unless they are already signed up.

That's the very message he wants to send. It's popular, at least, more popular than a fucked up war that also causes personal pain on the home front to the majority.

5. What? We're at war again? What about GSAVE?
What a waste of a good acronym.

6. Don't forget Miss Beazley...
or whatever the new dog's name is.

Anyway, we certainly can't forget that we have been told that the best way to stand up to the terrorists is to go about our normal, daily business. Methinks Dumbya might simply, be taking his own advice. You know, leading by example. Don't we all wish? Granted of course, he doesn't have to worry about bombs on the trains, planes, and buses that the takes or that someone will be able to get to the place he's staying.

:sarcasm:

8. Everything he does has to have a "f-u" undertone because he's a sociopath.
Everything--eating, sleeping, walking, signing a bill into law, waving, joking, vactioning, etc. If he weren't able to feel like he was winning every minute of every day his world would come crashing down and he would be revealed to himself as the total piece of evil garbage that is really is. He probably has to shoot his bowel movements with a gun in the toilet before he flushes to keep his power trip going.

9. How to Wreck a Great Nation 206;;;; Install Sociopaths as Leaders
Rome, Japan, China, Britain, etc.....and now its Americas turn...

The 2 percenters who rule..do so at their benefit....

Not the 98%....

Bush is a symptom of a Drastic turn towards self destruction...

Ours...not his....
