Let us all bow our heads and pray for President Bush...

[Catherine Vincent]

So say a strong Bush backing cspan caller from Tennessee:

“It don’t matter to me what color the president is… male or female, it don’t matter. The US needs to stand behind our president. He is doing everything that I feel is right. I don’t think he is doing no wrong. They’ve got like John F. Kennedy, they got him like on a high pedestal, he was nothing but a whore…and he is just the greatest thing here. The US needs to stand and pray for our president and quit letting these other countries know that we are fighting him against everything that he does. We need to stand beside him and pray for him…and pray for the country.”

I love those cspan callers. They make me smile....especially the republicans. But do you notice since Bush took the office, republicans always say "our president" instead of "the president"? When Clinton and others before him were the president, you didn't hear people always say "our president". I don't get that.

1. If I went by calls on C-Span, I'd think his support was way higher

than 30-odd percent.

I can hardly stand to watch, but still I do. So many crackpots...

[SaveOurDemocracy]

2. 'odd' being the operative word .

:silly:

[annabanana]

3. I think they're beginning to dread taking calls on the Republican Line.

The callers are so damned loopy that it, ahem, doesn't reflect well on the base.

[Horse with no Name]

18. Doesn't reflect well on the base?

Hell that is ALL they got left.:rofl:

[LiberalFighter]

22. They should only take the loopiest calls on the Repug side

[BOSSHOG]

4. "I don't think he is doing no wrong." Thats at least a double negative huh?

So what the caller meant was that they believe he is doing wrong? Its that magic education stuff that continues to elude conservatives. Hell they don't have to know anything, all ya gotta do is believe and pray.

[tularetom]

11. As a product of the Tennessee edjamacashunal system, I can only say

that's what they taughten us.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

31. should have stopped at "I don't think"

that sums it up about right.

[BOSSHOG]

36. I recall

our Instructor in High School Debate, Sophomore Year (1970) gave a lesson on never saying "I don't think." Always phrase your position in the positive. Excellent advice. However with conservatives, saying I don't think would be the honest approach.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

37. LOL nt

[Bluzmann57]

5. Right.

If Obama becomes President, that same person will undoubtedly curse that a person of color is our leader. If Hillary becomes President, that person will claim that she isn't capable of being the leader.

[opihimoimoi]

6. Prayers??? How bout impeachment? I suppose those Germans prayed for Hitler too

In this case.....Prayers don't work, ....Impeachment does....

His track record sucks....no NFL team owner keeps a losing coach for very long...not 7 years w/o a win....

[DCKit]

7. I prefer the tack of my Catholic friends

No revenge, no hatred, just "commend him to God's care."

[LiberalFighter]

24. I've only heard the words "commend him to God's care" or something like it

when sending a dead person off at a funeral.

[DCKit]

30. Same thing, ain't it?

[AnnInLa]

8. Is the C-Span WJ like the National Inquirer of

political talk nowadays?

Oh, I'll pray about bush, all right.

[hobbit709]

9. As long as shrub is in the WH

I pray for my country too-I just don't pray for him and his cohorts.

[Mad_Dem_X]

12. I'm always praying for my country

But pray for *? No frickin' WAY.

[HamdenRice]

10. Here's how to start a proper prayer for bush: O! Prince of Darkness! O evil one!

Lord of the flies, destroyer of worlds! Look after your annointed one on the surface, as opposed to in the bowels, of the earth.

And may his familiar, tumor of evil Cheney, guide your son in his work in the great work of their evil doing.

Just sayin. Not that I would actually pray that way, but to whom else, and how else could anyone pray for these two?

[DCKit]

13. And that little ditty

just rolled right off your fingers into the internet, playground of the Devil himself.

[Mad_Dem_X]

14. LOL!

[HamdenRice]

15. Idle hands .... nt

[Catherine Vincent]

33. Snicker!

[dkofos]

16. I pray something falls from the sky and lands on his head.

Is that the type of prayer he is talking about??

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

17. These are the same people who cheered as heretics were burned in the 17th century

They smugly attended an auto da fe and prayed for crown and church without giving a second through to the barbarism they were helping to foster.

[patrice]

27. That's exactly what they are praying for NOW for Muslims.

That's why they love the pResident so much.

Sick.

[H2O Man]

19. There are some

very disturbed people in our society. The caller in question is one of them.

[Catherine Vincent]

34. And how. This one is right up there with a caller that calls in all the

time from Arkansas that claims that she knows the Clinton's because they are from her back yard. :eyes: Then this guy from Texas that calls monthly whining about the Democrats and fussing at the moderators. And let's not forget about the guy that is supposedly blind that whines all the time in general and had the nerve to argue with Brian Lamb (Mr. CSPAN himself) on how he was pronouncing Bush's name. Lamb hung up on him. It was great!

[deepthought42]

20. If I ever start praying, it's not going to be for *

Unless it's to pray for his impeachment. :evilgrin:

[HughBeaumont]

21. Ever notice the very evident commonality of Bewsh supporters?

That top one . . . talk about pictures that smell bad!

[DCKit]

25. I expected to see crosses on fire there.

[sinkingfeeling]

23. Do they have schools in Tennessee? That particular caller appears never to have been in one.

"it don't"?? "he is doing no wrong"?? "they got him like on a high pedestal'??

[ChairmanAgnostic]

32. I know of at least two b-ball teams attached to perfectly good colleges.

Rumors are they have football teams also attached to some schools.

Seriously, so many parts of Tennessee are simply gorgeous, and I have always enjoyed meeting people from that state. They are even polite to a yankee like mois. Unless I slip in a french word or three.

[LiberalFighter]

26. Bowing my head...

Praying for Bush that his head remains functional and engaged while inserted into his rectum.

[CrazyOrangeCat]

28. Bwahahahaha!!!!

indeed.

[Richard D]

29. Prayer is good, even for one's enemies.

As many years as he’s walked on his feet, let him walk on his hands, and for the rest of the time he should crawl along on his ass.

God should bestow him with everything his heart desires, but he should be a quadriplegic and not be able to use his tongue.

[La_Fourmi_Rouge]

35. I do not pray flippantly or lightly.

I would pray this man come to an awakening:

Take up and read!

Romans 13:13, which reads: "Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying"

[mrreowwr_kittty]

38. They seem to be the only ones left on the pro-Bush line

Bottom of the evolutionary barrel. I've noticed a big defection of the more...I guess you could call them articulate...types to the Independent line. They're pretty easily ID'd because they'll grudgingly criticize the Bush admin but always follow up with some jab at Clinton. :eyes:
