Why is Bush allowed to say that he was the "first President to call for

[oncall247]

a Palestinian state?" This statement goes unchallenged by anyone in the media. I remember clearly that Clinton had proposed a Palestinian state. Does anyone else?

"Only in the course of the past three years has an agreed two state solution emerged. It was Barak, at Camp David and Taba, backed by United States President Clinton, who first offered the Palestinians a state of their own. When Yasir Arafat rejected the terms of that offer in favor of violence, it became officially "null and void." Then Ariel Sharon became the first Israeli prime minister to officially endorse the idea, and George W. Bush the first American president to make a two state solution an official goal of US Middle East policy"

3. Oh, this definitely caught my attention...

because, other than working for peace in Ireland, Clinton worked tirelessly to try and broker an Isreal/Palestine peace deal which included separate state status and provided sovereignty to Palestine.

He is such a freakin' liar!

4. Carter did too

Bush probably isn't aware of history before 2001. He was too drunk to notice anything anyway, and he never reads newspapers or anything else. Unless the Cartoon Network had a special on the Palestinian State, he probably didn't even hear the term til Condi told him what it meant.

9. Isn't it funny how some "furriners"

when they discover they've been lied to, TAKE IMMEDIATELY TO THE STREETS? Not tomorrow or a week from Tuesday, IMMEDIATELY! Isn't it funny how they scare the lining shit out of the corrupt and their cronies?

Amis sit behind their keyboards getting all exercised about the Venezualan President's little stand up routine and meanwhile, back at the ranch...

11. It's amazing

Convince a people that anything can be worked out by working within the system and they'll wait for that same exact corrupt system to hold itself accountable...

6. It's true because * said it was true.

Do you expect anyone in the M$M to call him on it??

10. He lies about on-the-record facts. Idiot. nt

12. The visual...

[gatorboy]

13. Because the MSM would consider it "rude" to question him.

They've been out of the "hold Bush accountable" business for awhile. They're operating under the gumption that questioning Bush's comments would be considered biased. So they just sit back and let him spew what he likes.
