Bush: "They have no disregard for human life"

[sabra]

http://blogs.usatoday.com/ondeadline/2008/07/bush-to-hold-ne.html#more

<snip>

And Afghanistan's a tough fight. It's a tough fight because, one, this is a state that had been just ravaged by previous wars, and there wasn't a lot of central government, you know, outreach to the people.

Secondly, there is a tough enemy, and they're brutal. And they kill at the drop of a hat, in order to affect behavior.

It's a little bit reminiscent of what was taking place in Iraq a couple years ago, where, you know, the enemy knows that they can affect the mentality of the American people if they just continue to kill innocent folks.

And they have no disregard {sic} for human life. And it's really important we succeed there, as well as in Iraq. We do not want the enemy to have safe haven -- unless, of course, your attitude is, this isn't a war, so if that's the case, it wouldn't matter whether we succeed or not.

But it is a two-front war. And I say there's other fronts, but there's other fronts where we're, you know, taking covert actions, for example.

1. You know, after seven and a half years of this, I'm beginning to wonder if Bush isn't just a little

bit stupid.

[AndyA]

12. You are being VERY GENEROUS with that statement.

A box of rocks is smarter than *.

Road kill is more alert than Shitstain.

If *'s IQ dropped by one percent, his bodily functions would cease.

[SammyWinstonJack]

13. Just flat out intellectually lazy , is totally clueless about which he speaks on.

Also, he doesn't give a rat's ass about much of anything other than how much wealth he can amass, how many people he can piss off and how much blame he can lay on the Democratic leaders.

[bdamomma]

36. and he never stops being defiant

[Prophet 451]

29. He's not stupid

Sadly, I've come to the conclusion that Chimpy is only slightly less intelligent than average and a throughly nasty piece of work. The misspeakings are likely dyslexia or dysphasia.

[bdamomma]

37. he has some skeletons in his closet, he is at war with his father.

[Ilsa]

52. Yeah, I think so too. Perhaps some sort if expressive aphasia, perhaps

drug-induced brain damage.

[Cheap_Trick]

45. Fucker should be flying on the short plane n/t

[opihimoimoi]

57. Just like Hitler...the dude has a DEATH WISH for himself and everyone around him...incldg US

Its clear as day....

all his results point in this direction

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

2. Well, the English as a Second Language course failed.

Strangled by Newckyewler Waste.

[ingac70]

3. While he is better than that...

he has no regard for human life.

What a dumbass.

:banghead:

[libnnc]

4. my facial tick has returned...

:banghead:


pResident Hooked On Phonics strikes again.

[Indenturedebtor]

5. Oh man... what a freakin IDIOT

Someone should seriously ban him from speaking in public. It's harmful to developing brains all over the world. :puke:

[bdamomma]

38. he has lowered the bar on decency. He is just plain defiant.

[sinkingfeeling]

6. Just admitted to black ops in Iran with 'there's other fronts where we're, you know, taking covert

actions.'

[formercia]

20. You forgot to mention the US.

Lots of covert actions going on right here at home.

[Indenturedebtor]

39. Not covert anymore. They just baldfaced take a crap on the Constitution every few months n/t

[sabra]

33. I wonder how many people @ the WH and Pentagon cringed during this whole exchange

"there he goes again"

[elehhhhna]

42. Iran, plus who knows where else? What a moran.,

[marmar]

7. He's probably upset that they have no DISREGARD for human life.....

.... seing as how that's his administration's M.O.

[helderheid]

8. NOTHING.

[eagleswing963]

9. This coming from the man who invaded Iraq for no reason!

One of the many reasons

Like oh, NEW ORLEANS!! I bet he in closed doors with Rove said "F**k them Ni**as" when he heard about New Orleans.

Last night I watched Bill Maher, The Decider. Funny and scary as shit!!

His jokes about Clinton and New Oreleans were classic. Something like sure Clinton would have gotten blown while he took care of N.O. but its OK, he was a multitasker. Bush is not even a unitasker!

[MadrasT]

35. That was just plain funny...

"Bush is not even a unitasker!" :rofl:

[kestrel91316]

10. That worthless excuse of a human being has left me speechless once again.

[ailsagirl]

31. Just when you think you've heard it all... along comes more

:crazy:

[dkofos]

11. What a dumbshit

[HEyHEY]

14. If I was Yale, I'd file a file a tort to make him stop saying he went there.

[izquierdista]

23. Yale is proud of their spawn

That they have been represented in the Oval Office for the last 20 years. Me, I think they should be shuttered and their accreditation revoked.

[HCE SuiGeneris]

15. His eloquence is unmatched in any other political theater. Simply astounding.

[elehhhhna]

43. Yeltsin was drunk alla time, too. Bet he said a few doozies...

but Bush is the alltime prize-winner.

[barbtries]

16. heaven knows he has

great disregard for human life. what a waste.

[DS1]

17. How dare they!

:rofl:

[LeftinOH]

18. Jesus. What was his GPA at Yale?

[Javaman]

19. with morons* constant malapropisms, he* takes the fun out of lampooning him*.

I mean, how can one make someone* so fucking stupid sound even more stupid?

[wtmusic]

21. "in order to affect behavior"

:rofl: oh George. Thanks for that one.

[elehhhhna]

44. yeah. but he's right, for a change: killing people totally affects their behavior.

[Contrary1]

22. Now there's a guy I'd like to have a drink with!

Obviously, it's the only thing he can do well.

[uppityperson]

24. Once again he speaks truth, and others discount it.

k&r

[mentalsolstice]

25. And I had to pick today of all days to give up drinking!? nt

[melody]

26. the phrase "as a bag of hammers" comes to mind

To paraphrase the movie Lex Luthor, how can that itty bitty brain power that big, gawky body?

[asjr]

27. Karl Rove and Cheney

did a piss-poor job on his training sessions.

[LeftishBrit]

28. Is that a Freudian slip, or is he just thick as two short planks?

Probably both.

[area51]

30. Don't look now, GW Hoover,

but we have no regard for human life, since we have no right to healthcare in the U.S. unlike in civilized, 1st world countries.

[Joe Stirling]

32. As John Lennon used to say.........

"We are being controlled by nutters"

[G_j]

34. take it from someone who knows complete disregard for human life n/t

[Initech]

40. The Bush administration has no regard for human life.

Unless its a fetus or a terminally brain-dead woman, however.

[elehhhhna]

41. "...there's other fronts where we're, you know, taking covert actions, for example"

omg did he really say that?

[WritersBlock]

50. He really said that. And THAT is the REAL story here, not his verbal mistake!!

This is a paste from the White House site; the bold formatting is mine:

Secondly, there is a tough enemy, and they're brutal, and they kill at the drop of a hat in order to affect behavior. It's a little bit reminiscent of what was taking place in Iraq a couple of years ago, where the enemy knows that they can affect the mentality of the American people if they just continue to kill innocent folks. And they have no disregard for human life. And it's really important we succeed there, as well as in Iraq. We do not want the enemy to have safe haven. Of course -- unless, of course, your attitude is, this isn't a war. So if that's the case, it wouldn't matter whether we succeed or not.

But it is a two-front war. And I say there's other fronts, but there's other fronts where we're taking covert actions, for example.

[bdamomma]

46. he has no regard for human life.

if he did there would have been no 9/11 which was MIHOP, or LIHOP, no invasion into Iraq, and would of instructed New Orleans to make the appropriate plans for the people there. This POS does not care about anything or anyone except that 1%.

[Submariner]

47. Bush is more than a few fries short of a Happy Meal

What an embarrassment.

[lonestarnot]

48. Sofa King we todd it!

[carlyhippy]

49. Doesn't this man have staff for public speaking engagements, or a press secretary?

Whoever they are, why are they on the payroll....his stuff should be on teleprompters and in print in front of him, he should never be put in front of people with material that is completely grammatically incorrect, unless he is doing this without the use of the above, then his English professors at Yale need to be put on leave.

[elehhhhna]

53. IMO the Admissions office staff at Yale needs to be put on leave.

Imagine how stupid he was BEFORE he went to Yale.

LOL i'm making that a thread title.

About the gaffes -- maybe his earpiece is busted again. No transmissions from the mothership

[Crabby Appleton]

51. Yes, we got no ... bananas

[malaise]

54. Seriously

he is bat shit crazy.

[Olney Blue]

55. Homo sapiens. Not.

[rug]

56. Unlike himself.
