@dmh091 I understand Ron Paul's opposition to the US Civil Rights Act of 1964, but he has not explain any alternatives to it. Also I dislike the facts that he associates with an white supremacist organization, Stormfront, that whose website site have given impressions that they support the KKK and neoNazis.
I am aware that minorities have supremacists groups, but we need to ensure that the US President not support them even if he protects the rights of hate organizations.
Matt Lauer fawns all over the daughter of George Bush at every opportunity on national television; Jenna Bush is a coworker of Matt Lauer on The Today Show. Then Matt would have us believe that he is a tough-ass interviewer of Jenna Bush's dad, the worst president in history. Stop insulting the intelligence of the viewing public, Matt. Journalism, Today Show-style, is a joke; look for Al Qaeda in the skies over Rockefeller Center any day now. See David Letterman, also a target of "terrorists".
are democrats that come on here just going to insult him? or just say something and not support their reasoning. bush did better job than anyone here im sure not anyone. he had his flaws but he can a better job than anyone who wants to insult him
@milt5658 yeah bush backed off cuz he knew we would find him, bush knew that there was a compound being built for osama bin laden and would take 2 or more years for it to be done and for him to move in and thats when we would get him and we did, bush had alot of guts and was a stand up man, he was strong and didnt care what you all thought and thats the man i want leading a ship
@milt5658 Please dont be one of them... Bush was horrible but .. Obama did NOT kill Osama.. there is matching evidence that he's been dead for years.. and isnt it a coincidence he is killed at Obama's LOWEST POINT OF RATINGS... not to mention no proof of his death at all, AND most of the members who supposedly 'killed" bin laden , died in a chinook helicopter by an RPG!!! a chinook travelling at about 145 mph shot at by a free fire missle launcher??? . ok
@Julian24151 That's just silly. First of all, I believe he was killed when Obama said, because the evidence points to it. But even if I'm wrong -- and neither one of us was there, so we'll never know absolutely either way, which makes your conspiracy theory especially silly -- Obama effectively killed bin Laden that day. Either way, bin Laden is dead, and the idea of al Qaeda's lost a lot of steam.
@Julian24151 You cannot kill the killers of Jews, kosher-cruel, greed-is-good, Tay-Sachs-spreading mad cows. See the movie Contact in which Jew-Holocauster Adolph Hitler is the Supreme Ruler of the Universe.
@FSUNole05 the information obama got was from bush's team and the so called torture, they told bush's admin that they was building that compound for osama but in the mean time they didnt know where he was, but bush knew that atfter that place was built osama would be there, in fact this info came out from the last republican debate in iowa, wait until the big debate you'll see the truth, cuz you think oboma would say yeah it was cuz of bush why i got him, no he wants a realection, but youll see
@TheMattd546 Matt you got bad information. Sounds like your a victim of fox new brainwash. That intelligence we got was from that Courier that gave info to OBL. It wasnt till last summer we discovered it and our President OBama took it seriously and told our CIA Director that it was his top prority to find OBL and look what happened. 9/11 happened on Bush presidency and didnt go atter OBL enough. I bet you blame the Clinton administration for 9/11. Typical Republican response.
@FSUNole05 naw i dont blame clinton either, and its kinda hard to blame anyone except the terrorist for this, like bush just sat in office and this happend so fast, im not a republican and not a democrat, they both have bad flaws, democrats think 250,000 is rich which is small business, im glad that obama pulled the trigger and got him, but i dont think he should get a realection for it
@FSUNole05 How do you know hes even dead... Bush backed off OBL because he was DEAD... why are you so stupid... they kill one of the biggest criminals in the world and they just dump him in the water with no trace or proof?
see people cant you all see, waterboarding and torture is what gave OBAMA information on where osama bin ladan was, Obaba got bin laden cuz of what bush did, and becouse bush got inportant words from the scum bags trying to kill us, but it worked, osama is dead, its true that the only way they found him was from the information bush's administration got from watterbaording and what ever other torture, , i cant beleive people thought bush was wrong, obama got osama becouse of bush's work
@waterproofcat1 Bush period.. He's the shit. I would give my right nut to get drunk with him and Ms Rice one time and let them tell this worthless nobody how they see the world. He was amazing. So was she. God bless them both.
@avengerspeel How was he awesome? What has he done besides have our troops killed for an unnecessary war? Its easy to see the world how they see it.......they dont give a shit about you......they dont care about your families security.....if they really did then why would they bankrupt the country with bullshit wars making us a demonic symbol of imperialism around the world, do the same thing to "terrorists" that they do to us, and beat everyone around us with a big stick. have fun with 1 nut
So based on your comments, you're telling me to "grow a pair of balls" and to "join islamic fundamentalists?" C'mon, dude. Seriously? Those comments had nothing to do with what I said and was in fact, totally opposite from my point of view. You just threw it in there for show.
@mghoang I think the problem is, you don't understand English. I told you to grow a set, but I never told you to "join islamic fundamentalists." If you condone torture, and torture them based on the childish premise, "well, they did it, too," then you don't believe in American/civilized values. If you love the torture so much, go join them; they seem to love it.
American values are: innocent until proven guilty, due process and basic fairness. We're not like "them," whoever "they" are.
there are fundamentalists beheading western reporters on national tv in the middle east. i could care less if the Bush and the CIA were submerging terrorist masterminds in water to get vital information. sometimes you gotta break the "rules!" And I don't think a lot of people understand the torture techniques that our friends in Saudi Arabia use to get vital information for the American CIA, either. This is just how this shit works.
@mghoang I see. So what you're saying is, "Screw America and what it stands for." I kind of like the fact that we're better than the assholes who commit terrorist acts and bastardize a major religion in order to scare people.
Do you even have a clue that the rarefied assholes who beheaded a western reporter used the same justification you cite above?
Grow a pair. We're better than they are. If you want to be like them, go join them.
@mghoang No, I just reread it, and based on what you wrote, you think it's ok that we torture them because they torture us. You're suggesting that it's "just how this shit works." It's not. We shouldn't commit or condone torture. Period. No matter what anyone else does.
@mghoang finally someone who gets it. Who's right now Matt? the ONLY reason UBL is sleeping with the fishes is b/c waterboarding & GW. I'm sure Matt Lauer is preparing his speach now to apologize for how idiotic he is & how wrong he was to grill Bush on this...... Matt, you have egg all over your face, but of course you will conveniently avoid the issue. Let's thank Obama for not being a man of his word, otherwise he would not have continued what Bush started. Hooyah Devgru!
"...and Mat, after September 11, my government re-difined "troture" to make it "within the Law" , so when I say the head of Amnesty international is wrong, I say it because I know the new definition of 'troture' mat, and he doesn't. So you see Mat, we went to great measures to ensure everything we did was to protect you "within the LAw".
Just say it George...."Uhhhh Mat, these are not real people, these are arabs. Laws about torture only apply to real people and my job is to protect real people like americans."
Water boarding terrorists, or groping innocent americans at the airport? I mean fucks sake why are liberals so damn concerned about terroists civil rights?!!!
@enjoyitbro Because, based on our system, they're not actually terrorists until they've been convicted.
I'll give you an example. What if your next door neighbor decided he wanted you out of the neighborhood and reported you to DHS as a terrorist. How would you feel if the gov't picked you up and put you in jail forever, and waterboarded you forever, without a trial?
Why are right wingers harbor such hatred of the Constitution?
When I first saw that "my" government was torturing people, all I could think of was mafia. Of course, bush, himmler, hoover, many others are knights of malta. Remember the article on the cover of the wall street journal, army attorney recused himself from the case because his client was tortured to lie to protect himself.
how is waterboarding illegal or against the Geneva convention, when half the time we put our troops through gas response training, waterboarding, bio and germ warfare drills and other "torture" while training?... If that is not illegal then why the hell would non-uniformed terrorists, fighting for no ordained/sovereign/recognized country and not US citixzens or other military personnel be held to the US constitution or the Geneva convention?
I would like Matt Lauer to Corner Obama the way he did Bush and see how defensive Obama gets...Just read Bob Woodwards Book like I did on 'Obama's War. and see how politicized that conflict has become since he has been POTUS.
You can bet they (I'm assuming anyone who is Muslim or has any resemblance to the stereotypical image of a Middle Easterner) will fly all the way here to the US, break into my house and kill my family!
Why be so defensive if you are "within the law". It is clear that the Bush administration's actions violated the Geneva Convention. He is an idiot to conduct an interview discussing his opinions on torture of terrorist suspects or war prisoners. If there was not enought evidence to find that he committed a war crime in the past, there is now.
I mean just think about it, if you had the choice of waterboarding some terroist to save hundreds upon thousands of lives wouldn't you fucking do it? I mean you would do whatever it took to protect your loved ones. I mean can you imagine if some hundreds were killed because you didn't want to abuse a terroists civil rights? What the hell would you say to the familes of the deceased? Hey on the bright side we are a more noble nation for letting your family die?
@1971Goldtop What kind of a creep roots for the President of the United States beating up a citizen for asking questions? You may wish you lived in the old Soviet Union, but I like living in a country where THEY work for US.
@milt5658 He's not a citizen in this instance, he's a corporate paid reporter, asking questions which benefit the company by pleasing its viewer base. Don't agree? Try to explain why MSNBC refuses to use the same questioning on Barack Obama.
@TheGeekyNinjaStudios: he's a citizen. His job doesn't preclude his status as a citizen. As for explaining MSNBC, is there evidence that President Obama is approving torture?
@trueconservatie33 All of what you just said is pure bullshit. We're pretty much out of Iraq AND we stopped building the permanent bases. The Afghanistan policy has changed drastically in the last two years, and has an end game. Rendition continued for the first few months, but it's all but stopped now, and waterboarding is once again ILLEGAL, and against government policy.
In actuality, nothing you just said was true. Not even a little.
@milt5658 we still have 50,000 men in iraq!! we are going to be Afghanistan for a while trust me. Rendition has not stopped now, and as for water-boarding, all we did was hired foreigners to do it for us. keep trust your messiah. this administration is continuing the wall street bailout policy, and is in bed with wall street just like the last one.
@trueconservatie33 There are more troops in Germany than Iraq. We might be in Afghanistan for a while, but we are no longer conducting an active war against Afghans, and we're training Afghan troops; something we didn't do while Bush was in charge. No waterboarding is being ordered by the US government.
@trueconservatie33 As for the Wall Street bailout policy, you dipshit; Obama put conditions on the money that made them all pay us back. The bailouts are going to end up costing us nothing, and may even bring us a small profit. And if Obama was in bed with Wall Street to the extent you seem to imply, why did they work so hard to elect Republicans?
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.John 8:44
Now this is how a US president should act. Firm and strong, not a weakling like Obama. The US President shouldnt have to take shit from anyone, especially from scum like this Matt Lauer bitch
@crazybread1337 exactly right brother! I wasn't happy with Bush's spending policies, (never met a bill he wouldn't pass), but on the war and terrorism the man was right and history will bear it out. When asked why he didn't defend himself, speak out against the lib media, the ignorant fucking lib protesters, every single Dem except for Lieberman, and all the other haters calling him Hitler, stupid, baby killer blah blah he said he wouldn't allow the office of the Presidency sink to that level
@1971Goldtop What kind of a creep roots for the President of the United States beating up a citizen for asking questions? You may wish you lived in the old Soviet Union, but I like living in a country where THEY work for US.
@crazybread1337 That niggard bush knows "NOTHING" about the law. He is one of many antichrists (1 John 2:18). Christ came to fulfill the law (Matthew 5:17) which is spiritual (Romans 7:14). He otherwise abolished the law of commandments contained in ordinances (Ephesians 2:15) blotting out the handwriting of ordinances against us (Colossians 2:14).
When the system comes down and george and friends lose their paid thug protectors they get tortured (like they tortured). Paybacks are a bitch.
I hate it when someone like this hides behind patriotism to justify crimes. Make no mistake, they are crimes. We prosecuted people for the same thing. But the insult to us is his claim that he felt it was legal because his legal officers said it was legal. That means he had to ask. What did you think his lap dog, Alberto Gonzalez, was going to say?? Remember one thing. Ignorance of the law is NO EXCUSE!!
He was the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES - he should've already known the law and should've known that torture was not only illegal, but immoral, inhumane, & only puts our country at greater risk for other countries to hate/attack us! (That now gives the bad guys an excuse, to use against us in the end!)
How stupid & uneducated does it make him look - when he actually had to go ask another person about a law that he should've known about in the first place?!
Who cares about Bush, the worst president EVER. I certainly don't, but it's funny that Bush appears out of blue AFTER a two year hibernation, is politically calculated after the republican win on 11/2. It's also funny how gas prices jumped 25 cents in two weeks since the republicans winning on 11/2. Right Now as we speak the Republican Think Tank is doing everything to find ways to get JEB BUSH to become president., NO WAY. The Bush family is a Fucking Disaster, the Kennedy Family was a Dynasty!
Waterboarding is only psycological anyway. I know what we should have done to these guys, sit down over dinner and ask nicely with a glass of red wine, can you pleeeese give us some information?
Ya know there are somethings we as americans dont need to know . if waterboarding is a way to get to people who want to kill americans solely becasue we have a certain way of life i say do it . we water board they cut people's heads off I would say we are the humane ones here .I am so sick of people making my america into a bunch of pussies which is why other countries treat us the way they do .when Japan attacked us we delt with them and noone dared to mess with us for many yrs
So steelcurtain, allow me to ask you this - just because they cut off people's heads there, means that we Americans are *soooo* much better because we stoop down to their stinking level, & do the same unjust & cruel things to other people!...Tell me, how are we better because we do this?...How has this kind of stuff, this kind of action, made our country more safe in the long-run? (And you call this more HUMANE?!?).....
In addition to this - you said, "I am so sick of people making my america into a bunch of pussies which is why other countries treat us the way they do."
Let's get one thing straight here: America has *NEVER* been a pussy! You, in your whacked way of thinking - have it all turned BACKWARDS!..America has been a bully of other countries for YEARS - namely because we have the most money & the most power to be able to do so! (There's a lot of stuff that has gone on that we haven't even heard about)
In addition to this, you said, "I am so sick of people making my america into a bunch of pussies which is why other countries treat us the way they do."
First thing's first, let's get one thing straight: America never has been & *NEVER* will be a pussy! You, in your whacked way of thinking - have it all BACKWARDS!!
Because we have the most money & the most power, we/America has usually been the BULLY. (Especially when you get a dumb-sh*t, power-hungry, war-eager President like Bush in office!)
So, after many years of America pushing other countries around & doing things they weren't suppose to - (& most likely, you won't hear about these things on American media) - these countries and their people have finally gotten tired of the mistreatment, and have come back with a vengeance. (That's not to say that we've done wrong to EVERYONE - there are religious lunatics out there who will use any excuse to harm another person. But I think, for the most part, we've pushed our weight around.)
george bush shouldnt have to defend himself to a media man like matt lauer...i wonder if he would have been more popluar if he went on the view, and howard stern.. i hope george and laura know how grateful we are for the service they did for this country
Sunshin5033 - You're right. George Bush shouldn't have to defend himself to a media man like Matt Lauer. He should have to defend himself against the people of American, and the rest of the world, whom he lied to, deceived, financially/economically raped, & left for dead when he left office. (And he didn't even turn back to look at the destruction he had left behind, nor did he attempt to do anything to remedy that destruction.)
You're right sunshin5033, you're absolutely right!
The basic premise is this: Matt Lauer and everyone else who lives in their cushy home with their cushy job and cushy protected life think things can get done by following some protocol that other countries could care less about. Do people really think the terrorists were following procedure when they sawed off some journalist's head with a steak knife and then posted the video up on the internet? People wanna gripe about water boarding?! Get fvcking real.
@TexasRho83,clearly the Iraq war was a mistake. do you think that this war would fix any problems? I think things are just getting much worse. tell me how americans are safer now than before? If protect you as an american, means to go to another country and destroy it, then something must be wrong pal. when I see Bush,I just think of a cheap uncle Sam.
Haha, the incidents he declassified to show our methods are working actually turned out to be a faux. I'm sorry, but America has and is continuing to act shamefully.
I was in the military and everyone excepts the fact that no other country, or terrorist organization follows the geneva convention or any other rule of war and unfortunately bad things are going to happen. So the gloves are off and protect the United States of America at all costs.
Just look at the way this reporter acts in front of the president! No class at all. If it was Obama he was interviewing he would be kissing his feet!
But hey..when was the last news we have heard out of Iraq? What about the daily body count the mainstream media did everyday when Bush was in Office? And talk about rights for KSM? Is this guy kidding? KSM is an ADMITTED mass murderer!
But hey, Obama is in India probably in India right now outsourcing more jobs from America!
@Love4SK I think your a sack of shit!! I tell you what...Call Obama and see what he has done since being president. Was not his main campaign goal Afghanistan? How about closing Gitmo? Yeah right? I try and respect views from persons such as you but really..get a grip...this is war. I guess Obama got a reality check after he became president..hence..why has he not caught Bin Laden since he became POTUS?" Peace Out!
leave it to simple minded left wing jackarsses to look at things as the media tries to portray them. seriously, how do you expect one man to be informed of every single act happening in a country of millions of people and a military of hundreds of thousands. you people make me sick that love bashing this man because its "hollywood", have you seen what has happened to numerous contractors and journalists that have gone to that area? these are animals that we are dealing with.
This interview with Matt Lauer and Bush is far more honest than the one this evening on NBC Monday November 8/2010. The fact is that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed is and was NOT the mastermind of 911. The guy in the white T-shirt has not been indicted lawfully in a court of law on US soil because it is a huge hoax fraud. Midland Walwyn Merrill Lynch money. Secret prisons. Bre-X Gold Stock Fraud. @MattLauer CAN YOU HEAR ME?The real mastermind is seen on my favorited video from the back. Insurance motive
I miss Mr Bush!! Bless his heart, he was fighting Al Qaeda & most of the American people!! Who cares how they got info from the terrorists, the main thing is they got the info to keep us safe!!! Thanks milt5658 for sharing this video!!
@wlfrnfdjf he spent money, built up the government, didnt shut down the boarders, took us to a war that most people say was a mistake, gave billions of dollars to pakistan, called saudi arabia an ally, went soul searching with the russian leader, and had allowed the leader of Iran to come to Columbia university.....
@jeff7pt62 so what you're saying is psychological torture isn't really torture.....you're an idiot and you should be water boarded just to see what its like
@jeff7pt62 You say water boarding is not torture? Those who get water boarded through POW training have done so for a short period unlike actual POWs who have been water boarded for a longer time. Water boarding IS torture and you can actually die by swallowing your own tongue if the water is left running for an excess amount of time.
Truth is no one knows whats really going on cause thats impossible! But we are made to care about things we shouldn't and become blind to our incredible existance.
You know, the division within this country has come from the combination of politics and media. The canidates that lose are willing to say anything to sway peoples views of the winners, regardless of validity just to maybe make you dislike the other and hopefully pick up a vote next election. Different media outlets twist it further, sensationalize it and broadcasts it everywhere, and then during breaks they get FATPAID while endorsers get their adds ran to try and sell you stuff.. At what cost?
@MDethfan People then respond to this depending on which way of thinking attracts them most, and then walk around like that really have a deep and clear understanding in what's "really going on" in the entire world. This has caused so much hardheadness and destructive hatred between our own countryman that only something world alteringly drastic would have a chance of that coming to and end. The media has been broadcasting this far and wide so much, over so long that it's everywhere!
@antmlova1 Actually we hate every president, its simple really, two sides, one always hates the one in power. Bush had his turn now its Obamas. Heres something no ones saying, we still are. Are what? Torturing terrorists.
all bush did was repeat himself over and over..."it's all about protecting your family" "my job is to protect you" i can't tell you about my torturing techniques because that's feeding info to the enemy.. OKAY WE GET IT. STOP REPEATING. just because he was in power he felt that he had the right to do whatever the eff he wanted. he was behind the 9/11 attacks. bush and bin laden are best friends.
I'm glad that someone tried to show Bush's blatant disregard for the importance of the Constitution and the sanctity of law - without it we have nothing.
@ua7flyer What, according to you, is the best way to treat a terrorist that has been proved to plot and attempted to harm Americas. ... What would you do to them? Slap their wrist or give them a time out you dumb ass donkey ... Matt lauer would invite a terrorist over and try to coach him into better behavior ... get some brains please
matt lauer what a such melldown at the today show..... Bush talking like real cowboy in that interview is true matt corners bush in the oval office he do not responde all the question." only say four time My Job Is To Protect This Country, Man!" and his family....
I was in iraq and we went to war based on lies in the first place. You bomb a country thats done nothing make millions of ppl flee there homes and occupy it...Well DUHH of course there gonna hate Americans and want to kill us. At least he admitted torture was alive and well.
Matt Lauer is the most self-serving son of a bitch...he doesn't do or say anything unless he is on camera selling the Today show to viewers. Just once I would like for matt lauer to be natural and give an honest viewpoint instead of being a puppet on strings
Anybody who could belive that this boob could 'protect' you is a braindead moron. Especially after the brilliantly concieved and wonderfully executed war in Iraq...
@znarf541 The neocons and the bushies made France look damn good after wrongfully bashing them for not joining his bull shit war. Can't have french fries, but freedom fries, and, can't vote for John Kerry, he looks French.
I hope Bush writes a book call " Matt Lauer Can Suck It!"- Land of the Lost.

@mghoang I think the problem is, you don't understand English. I told you to grow a set, but I never told you to "join islamic fundamentalists." If you condone torture, and torture them based on the childish premise, "well, they did it, too," then you don't believe in American/civilized values. If you love the torture so much, go join them; they seem to love it.
American values are: innocent until proven guilty, due process and basic fairness. We're not like "them," whoever "they" are.

there are fundamentalists beheading western reporters on national tv in the middle east. i could care less if the Bush and the CIA were submerging terrorist masterminds in water to get vital information. sometimes you gotta break the "rules!" And I don't think a lot of people understand the torture techniques that our friends in Saudi Arabia use to get vital information for the American CIA, either. This is just how this shit works.

Matt Lauer is the most self-serving son of a bitch...he doesn't do or say anything unless he is on camera selling the Today show to viewers. Just once I would like for matt lauer to be natural and give an honest viewpoint instead of being a puppet on strings

the free pass is almost over. and the dems are losing power in november.

"Amnesty international says secret cites are illegal under international law."
"We disagree with them."
That's a dictator speaking.

@znarf541 The neocons and the bushies made France look damn good after wrongfully bashing them for not joining his bull shit war. Can't have french fries, but freedom fries, and, can't vote for John Kerry, he looks French.
