lemmings have second thoughts
I'm with #8. I might have to change my user name. ("brokenglassrep")

I cannot believe he's STILL doing this!!! I must have voted twice for a dimwit!!! ("meema")

Jorge's speech this morning is the best evidence I've seen in hours that ... he is a clueless wimp. ("privateer")

Doesn't GWB see what he's doing to the party?! Or the conclusion I have to come to is - he doesn't care. Well, right now - he appears sorta stupid. The dems must be licking their chops. ("votedforbush")

Oil, immigration. Say one thing and do another. It is called politics, those in charge stay in charge. Mr. Bush can even sound and say "Christian" things when it suits him, that does not make him so, but it sure gets a rise tornadic out of the evangelical wing. ("newkid")

I'll never again vote for a Republican. ("MsCharlotteVale")

Anger is Stage 2:

When I saw George Bush after 9-11, with his arm around that fireman, I cried. And, again, when he got off the jet in full flight garb, I cried. My love and pride for that man was almost like a bride feels for her husband, but in a patriotic way. I loved our country and our President with a passion.
:wtf:
Today, I turn off the tv, when he comes on the screen. In my gut, I feel betrayed. I feel like I have experienced the death of a loved one, and I am going through the grieving process. ("applepie")

Gives new meaning to "issues" voter. It sounds like these people need a big Ross Perot hug.

1. Yuk. Anybody could have put their arm around a fireman after 9/11
Edited on Tue Apr-25-06 03:21 AM by Hissyspit
In this case it just happened to be the fascist asshole who let it happen. "love like a bride for a husband?" Sick. I knew he was an asshole before he got elected. What's wrong with this person?

Funny. I was just thinking of lemmings as an analogy yesterday.

2. It's because he isn't right wing enough.
They'd be tickled pink if he'd go reactionary and totally destroy this country.

3. Yes, because all Republicans are extremist maniacs.
Just like all Democrats are flaming commies.

7. No, not all Republicans...
...but the vocal segment of free republic are extremist maniacs. And those that STILL support Bush, they are dead from the neck up.

8. these are ldotters, pro-flightsuit Freeper separatists
Lucianne Goldberg's website sprang up several years ago after she quit the popular Conservative forum, FreeRepublic.com under acrimonious circumstances.

I'm not sure of the exact nature of the dispute, but it had something to do with the Freep not being Republican enough (re: jack-booted thugs in the BATF or some black helicopter schism).

21. No, all Republicans aren't extremist maniacs.
But all posters at Lucianne.com seem to be. If Bush were to glassify Iran, he'd be considered a hero over there.

6. Yes, it does...
...I hated Bush on September 12th, 2001, when 80% of this very board was saying we needed to support him. So yeah, I get to wear the pin.

18. They Had To Buy That Clue Though!
If these people ever had an original thought it would be dead from loneliness.

14. "Doesn't GWB see what he's doing to the party?!" What about Country
you simple ass - who cares if he destoys your precious party (actually, I'm rooting for him to do just that - every time you people get elected, it's the same crap. Hopefully, enough of this generation has seen the results to where they will never vote a RePug into office again)

22. It makes me almost sick
to think he's adored because he put his arm around a fireman at the site of the devastation.

They don't know that all it was to him was a photo op. You couldn't have paid him to get his shoes dirty otherwise. That fucking asshole.

24. He refuses to walk on dirt or grass except for selected photo ops
Edited on Wed Apr-26-06 01:14 AM by Elwood P Dowd
plus everyone, including close friends and relatives, are required to call him Mr President. He has to protect his $1,000 a pop shoes and boots.
