3. He's spouting Terrorism, He's creating it actually ......
fear, war mongering, never ending, "going after the terrorists till there is no where to run, no where to hide" he says. Hmmmmmm what about that guy Osoma Bin Laden? He's done a pretty good job of it. :shrug: I'm just saying .... :wtf: Bush is nuts. Plain and simple.

10. I'm thinking

11. I still think
it was odd that they didn't show the crowd...at all...usually the GOP loves to show the people in the crowd cheering for the dipshit...why wouldn't they show it...?

Hmmmm...

14. No kidding, it's an odd situation. I noticed there were a few soldiers on
stage, but a whole cadre of law enforcement types were off to the side.

Hmmm, :wtf: MKJ

16. U never see the audience except
those used as background stage props. I thought it strange during the campaign, there were always shots over kerry's shoulder of the thousands turning out. There were never shots over blivets** shoulder; only individual head shots of audience members.

12. BTW, when talking about troops withdrawing, he said,"As long as I"m the
president, we will stay, we will fight and we will win the war on terror."

Must have been reassuring for the troops in tthe audience to hear that. MKJ

His statement was, paraphased, "Freedom is a right granted to every man, woman and child, by God Almighty himself", or something of that nature. MKJ

22. And don't forget this quote:
"We'll complete our work in Afghanistan and Iran," Bush said. "An immediate withdrawal of our troops in Iraq, or the broader Middle East, as some have called for, would only embolden the terrorists and create a staging ground to launch more attacks against America and free nations."

"We'll complete our work in Afghanistan and Iran,"

IRAN?
