Bush: "I Knew Exactly What Was Going To Happen " In Iraq...

Bush: And so to answer your question, yes, I hear the protests, and I can understand why. I can understand why people are concerned about war. Nobody likes war, particularly me.

I knew exactly what was going to happen when I committed these troops into harm's way. I knew there would be -- people would lose their life. I knew I would be trying to comfort mothers and fathers and grieving wives. I knew exactly what was coming. And if I didn't think it was the right thing to do, I wouldn't have sent them. And if I didn't think we would succeed in Iraq, I'd pull them out.

And the good thing about democracy is people can express themselves.

1. The good thing about real Democracies is the the people can

"express" themselves and have their votes counted. They can "express" themselves without reprisals from the government.

2. If he foresaw this clusterfuck

we need to try him for treason ASAP.

LOL! No shit! You've already demonstrated this when you RAN AWAY!

4. Arrogant and Incompetent and out of touch

Bubble Boy Bush

[WinkyDink]

5. "Nobody likes war, particularly me."

In other news, Pres. Bush has taken to calling himself "Nobody".

[pacalo]

16. He doesn't like war

when he has to do the fighting.

7. He knew exactly what was going to happen

Somehow that's the opposite of comforting.

my my--the guy is so so smart!

[Jack Rabbit]

10. What a moron!!

He didn't know the Iraqi people would resist occupation. He thought they'd all be so overjoyed at Saddam being out of power that no one would notice when Paul Bremer (an American, I should remind everyone) rewrote Iraqi laws on foreign investment by decree.

He doesn't even know that this is what any reasonable and intelligent person would call imperialism.

He wants to reduce all protests to knee-jerk pacifism. I got news for him. A lot of that protest is from informed citizens who know more than he does.

[Old and In the Way]

11. Simply an arrogant sociopath.

If this was truely a democracy, the boy-king would be in the docket at the Hague explaining his war crimes to a tribunal.

[BlooInBloo]

12. Fuck him. He didn't know exactly what was gonna happen in his BATHROOM...

... fucking dumbass.

[Rocknrule]

13. Why, did God tell him what was going to happen?

:sarcasm:

[lumberjack_jeff]

14. If you knew what was going to happen...

... then arson and vandalism should be added to your list of crimes against humanity.

15. But he told Pat Robertson "we're not going to have any casualities"

The Rev. Pat Robertson said President Bush dismissed his warning that the United States would suffer heavy casualties in Iraq and told the television evangelist just before the beginning of the war that "we're not going to have any casualties."

Robertson related the conversation during an interview with CNN late Tuesday. He said he spoke to Bush before the invasion of Iraq in March 2003 and urged him to prepare the nation for heavy casualties. While Bush's response was a mistake, Robertson said, God has blessed the president anyhow.

17. He must read DU.

Every single thing that's happened in Iraq was predicted here.

[Schema Thing]

18. Best. Photoshop. Ever.

19. "I Knew Exactly What Was Going To Happen "

Bullshit! He'd be lucky if he could've even found it on a map and he's as clueless today as he was before he attacked it.

[goclark]

20. But I thought he said he listened to the "Generals On The Ground"

That always amazed me because he is suppose to be the Commander In Chief, but he won't send it more troopes until they tell him do.
