  • "WAR ON TERROR" was the most ridiculous phrase ever, how can you declare war on an intangible concept? It FAILED before it even started because it was a breathtakingly insane notion from the beginning. Obama knows this, and that's why he never uses that phrase in public, ever.

  • anyone who thinks the war in iraq was on terror get your head out of your ass and wake up stupid. that war was about oil investments lol

  • totally taken out of context.

  • @TheInternetSurfer Please provide a "context" in which, after four years of fighting and 2200 dead American troops later, a report of ZERO progress is not failure.

  • he never said it was a complete failure he simply said that the enemy hasn't lost the desire or capability to attack us.

  • Thank you for reciting his words verbatim. Now think about what they mean.

  • i'd rather be repetitive, than to be putting words into other people's mouth. if you can think of a way that he implied or admitted that the War on Terror was a Total Failure, then we'll talk.

  • besides, this was in 2006 when he said this. we are currently in the year 2010. to say, now, that we have not weakened Al-Qaeda is absolutely absurd.

  • in conclusion, i will admit to you that bush might have been a little perturbed with the war on terror but i see no reason for him to perturbed now with the progress that the United States has made.

  • Not sure why you needed three replies.

    First, I didn't "put words in his mouth", I read between the lines. If you bothered to read the video description, this comment was made four years and 2200 dead soldiers later. If after all that, "the enemy has not lost the desire or capability to attack us", then truly, their strategy for four years has been a total failure.

    "Weakened al Qaeda"? Did invading Iraq "weaken al Qaeda" in Afghanistan, Pakistan or Yemen?

  • @HistoryBoy23 bush should be executed. blair too. maybe even clinton.

    i don't think I even need to say why.

    They've been committing war crimes for over a decade and no one's doing anything about it because after all USA is brainwashed and controlled by fox news.

  • Time will judge George W. Bush. The more of Obama we see the more people are starting to like Bush better. Remember the country has been run by the dems since Nov of 06'

  • Nearly a year after leaving office, Bush apologists continue to tell us that "history will be the judge", but a mere 200 days into the Obama Administration, they declare his Presidency a failure.

    Except for a brief 18 month period under Clinton, Republicans controlled at least 50% of the government since 1981 up until Obama's inauguration this year. So naturally... "blame the Democrats" for everything.

  • I wasnt talking about way back I'm talking about 07' Country has been run by Dems since late 06' That is a fact. No tip toing around it. We might not have to wait for history to judge Obama, just 2012 when he doesn't get re-elected..

  • You need to redo the math. 50% is not "control". And since no one elected on "late '06" took office until January of '07, they weren't "in charge" then either. "That is a fact."

  • Bottom line is interest rates were over 18% on a house under Carter and unemployment was at 5% with W Bush. We were promised if we passed the last bill unemployment would not go over 8% its almost 10%. If he dosnt get re-elected then we see about history. The erea around our mall in my small city grew and grew under Bush. Stock market had all new highs. We see friend. We will see.

  • Interst rates under Carter were due to 10-15 year Vietnam War Bonds maturing and had to be paid off.

    Interest rates under Bush were dropped because the economy was collapsing and they needed to discourage saving and promote spending.

    DOW quadrupled under Clinton. Under Bush, the DOW closed lower than when he entered (1st time since Hoover.)

    Reagan took "the long term unemployed" (9+ months) off the rolls to artificially deflate the number. Clinton created 22million new jobs. Bush, a net loss.

  • You make that sound so good for your man. So good it's funny. You wouldnt give Bush credit if unemployment was at 1% We will see in 2012.

  • I'm not a fan of George Bush, but I think you over-examined this clip. You have to look at it in context, not just a short phrase.

  • The title is *slightly* tongue-in-cheek, but after two years and 2,000+ dead soldiers "the enemy has not lost the desire nor capability to attack us", then one MUST ask, "What is the measure of success?"

  • I love how if you search "complete and total failure" on google and hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button, it brings you here!

  • TOTAL FAILURE.

  • Lets face it, until the middle-east is dry of oil, the US won't pull out. The war on terror is failing, because you can't defeat people who are driven by religion, religion is the greatest problem the world has ever faced

  • This is a typical video by dumbshit liberals. No where in the video does he say the war is a total failure. You fools are incredibly stupid.

  • If, after two years, he is reporting ZERO progress towards diminishing neither the "desire" nor "capability" of the enemy, how can that be seen as anything other than a "total failure"?

    BTW: It's "Nowhere", not "No where". You fools are incredibly stupid.

  • You need to calm down.

  • screw up on a word and that makes someone stupid? That sounds stupid doesn't it.

  • Which word would that be? "Desire" or "capability"?

  • Lol. I got this video when I did a "feeling lucky" search on Google. Brilliant.

  • BUSH is a TOTAL FAILURE.........he should commit suicide

  • Our congress approval rating is...9%! President Bush's approval rating is 3 times higher!

  • Take the GOP's approval rating out of the equation and you get a much higher figure.

  • wow, I typed in total failure on google address bar and clicked I"m feeling lucky. and there he wuz george bush...total failure :D

  • #1 Google result is *this* video. :)

  • LMAO

  • well duh, the enemy will always hate us, which is why they are called the ENEMY. the point is to to fight them and stop their attacks before innocent people are killed.

  • That's where "capability" comes in, chief.

  • Yeah we get him out of office sure, but way to late... checked the economy lately? We are all screwed big time. My kids are learning to speak other languages.

  • he is the worst president of modern times. good thing we can take out the trash this year.

  • I know this is controversial, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find a worse president of the United States, period. I think he's crippled the foreign influence of the USA in a time when it was crucial to oppose China. Maybe it seems pessimistic, but I think in 20 years, the extent to which Bush contributed to the decline of the USA will be fully and awfully apparent.

  • Boy oh boy, did you really reveal the truth with that diatribe. lol President Bush, Jr. will definitely go down as the worst President in the history of the United States. You are right, too. In my opinion, we have less than twenty years before our country is no more. America is finished.

  • Fuck you. he killed over one million Kurds. go fuck yourself. how dare you disgrace this good president. show the whole speache cunt. this was a disrespect to everyone over there. let me tell you a little story. do you know anything aobut the politics of the civil war. if you do you would relize that after the first year everyone wanted the civil war to stop. what if it did what if it fucking did. you little peace of shit if we pull out we will regret it.

  • (LOL) Okay, first off, this was from his 2006 State of the Union speech... about 55 minutes long. You want the full speech, Google it. As for the "context", I've responded to that numerous times already and it's getting old. "One million Kurds"? Not even close. Google that too while you're at it. Bush's invasion has killed fives times more Iraqi's is 1/10 as many years. And if you need to so many drop F-bombs to make your point, you've already lost the argument.

  • Bush,& his lying henchman do much more than just disrespect America-lying re: invading Iraq; lying re: Iraq occupation; not protecting U.S. Constitution; outing CIA agent & sbsequent coverup; lying re: how long U.S. is 2 B in Iraq; Continued icompetence in Katrina handling, etc. Wher have U been? We're talking treason & High Crimes & Misdemeanors.

  • And guess who supported, funded and supplied him with the weapons of mass destruction, the Good Old USA.

    It appears Iran made the mistake of standing up for its Oil against USA and British interests, and look what happened.

  • i dont care is saddam had anything to do with the 911 attacks or not its about damn time somebody stood up to terriost and this war is not a failure you need to talk to people whos been there like my dad and my brother we will win but if people stop supporting the troops yea then we will lose fuckin retards!

  • Define "win".

  • what i think a "win" is may be different to you...but a stable and democratic iraq with our troops home and my dad is serving in iraq right now

  • While I hope your dad and brother return safely, Iraq was stable and (arguably) Democratic before we went in. Saddam was not a terrorist (no ties to 9/11 or al-Qaeda. Check my other videos.) Removing Saddam removed the only check we had on Iran. Meanwhile, SIX MONTHS after 9/11, Bush was "no longer concerned" about OBL, who is still out there, plotting his next attack. Who's "standing up" to him?

  • Thanks for what you said about my dad and my bro is no longer in iraq..but iraq was never really democratic they could not hold free elections like we can it was a dictatorship and alot of ppl dont realize that. in a sense saddam was not a terriost he didnt not go around blowing up other nations but he did kill his own people. and i really dont care if saddam had anything to do with 9-11

  • i'm aware of what bush said yeah it was wrong for him to give up on looking for OBL and the UN is the one standing up to him which is very sad to say because they cant grab their ass with both hands.

  • Nothing in this video supports the original idiot poster title of failure. How come all these Bush haters post videos that are only half of the story, sound bites at best?

  • There is no need to post more, for all I see, Bush says the same thing over and over again. No point in uploading an entire speache when this is the most important messenge.

  • By admitting the enemy hasn't lost desire or ability - he's admitting that his efforts have been ineffective. That means he has "failed".

    But actually busy hasn't failed in other areas:

    Bush has succeeded at helping enemies recruit more enemies.

    Bush has succeeded at alienating most of the Western World.

    Bush has succeeded at profiting companies like Exxon/Mobil, Halliburton, Blackwater, & KBR.

    So you see - Bush is a winner.

    MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!

  • In short: the US can not win the war in iraq . The only ones capable of winning the war are the iraqi's themselves. It was foolish to believe that the US could step in, take care of Saddam and leave.

  • well ofcourse, bush will never declare a victory over terrorism. the neo-con globalist movement calls for a never ending, "war," against a fake enemy, the only way to win is to remove the neo-con globalists from power. there is no fucking war on terrorism idiots.

  • This is the stupidest video I have ever seen on the internet.

  • Considering who is speaking in the video, it's no wonder.

  • I concur

  • War on Terror a FAILURE!? It's doing exactly what it is supposed to do. To keep the population scared shitless and conform.

  • i agree wit u all..its a failure..us attacked on irag,afg are just a scene to earned oil from those countries..bcaz,US now has lots of debt from world bank..and the booming of wtc and all bomming in the us are done by the US...that is the fact..its all just alies from bush killing US citizen to booming Iraq and Afg..HE IS A DEVIL in this modern world..

  • Look no offence yazzie but no one relaly takes someone seriously when it comes to global politics when theyre making simple spelling errors like repeatedly spelling bombing "booming" and "bomming". Get an education?

  • Our president... a devil... really? Great comparison. You really are an incredible genius among mankind. Hey! I have an idea. Look up BOMBING next time before you try to type it so you dont make yourself look like more of an idiot.

  • i cant believe how stupid ppl are... is it so hard to see and to accept the fact that "Bush" is the President of Terrorists and the major Terrorist in the world. Did it ever occur to anyone how impossible it could have been for osama bin laden to attack wtc. and how very possible it is to bribe some1 that looks like him to create those videos of osama confessing!... DO U KNOW HOW MANY INNOCENT PPL HAVE DIED IN PALESTINE, LEBANON, IRAQ, FROM UNDER THE ORDER OF "BUSH"?.. i call that terroism!..

  • While I can agree Bush engages in the very terrorism he denounces, conspiracy theories like "bin laden lookalikes" are nonsense. He has admitted to the bombing, and had tried once before in 1993. If they were going to frame someone, it would have been Saddam, not OBL.

  • That was the most retarded video "Headline" I have ever seen!!

  • Look at the material I had to work with: the most retarded President ever.

  • When you take a bunch of "material" out of it's context, you can create anything you want out of it..including a slanted story/ video! Grow a brain!

  • I know the Republican defense is "Out of context!" to ANYTHING that exposes their lies, deceit, blundering and stupidity, and I've already responded to accusations of "Out of context" twice before on this very clip, so I'll tell you what I told them: THERE IS NO CONTEXT THAT CAN MAKES THOSE WORDS MEAN ANYTHING BUT FAILURE. Give me a context that *would* change their meaning (I should also note I have the full video and can tell you the clip is very much "in context").

  • Now you're just attacking republicans in general and that's stupid.  I may not be 100 percent pro bush, but he's our president. Get over it. He was elected being that we have an electoral system and I'm pretty tired of people just taking apart everything he says and putting it on the internet for people to argue about. This should be the last response to this bs.

  • no that is not even close to saying that iraq was a failure dumbass

  • I have no sympathy for those who belittle the number of deaths, who are so ready and willing to expend the lives of others while refusing to serve themselves. If the death of even ONE soldier means so little to them, then I make no apologies for my reaction to them.

  • The Bush doctrine amounts to looting, shooting and polluting.

  • Bush is only creating more terrorists by his wars.

    He's a warcriminal and should be charged.

  • Pull the troops out. Then carpet bomb the entire region. Then carpet bomb the rest of the world. Bush - you sissy. Let's get a real dictator in there. Show the meatheads what true terror is.

  • I m afraid he is already doin that. Ever thought of how 'terrorising' his words in his second term election campaign were. American voted for him out of fear or rather terror.

  • Hes good to some point... But invading Iraq was bad...

  • Wow totally taken out of context o.o; you can't pin down failure on just one sentence. Of course no one has lost the desire/capability, anyone can be up to it, americans, iranians, or iraqis...are you kidding? :P Casualties come with war, I don't mean to sound callous but war is war. Bush succeeded in getting' Saddam out, but there's still a war going on, don't count the casualties until it's over.

    I'm done.

    Bless and Pray for the Troops.

    Flame me I don't care. :)

  • One day, a Neo-Con will be able to give a better response than, "Out of context!". THERE IS NO CONTEXT to that statement that can nullify ZERO progress after two years, $250 Billion dollars in spent treasure and 2100 dead soldiers.

    Please provide a context that does. WE'RE WAITING.

  • We have made progress though, we just haven't reached our ultimate goal yet.

  • Duhhhhh.

    Would the real Amerikan stand up.

    THANKS

  • even if you think he is an idiot, he is a good president

  • By WHAT measure has Bush been a good President?

  • Uhhh why the fuck aren't the troops pulling out of Iraq?

  • More people died in some BATTLES in the Civil War.

    All that quote is saying is that we must continue to go after these people until the battle's done.

    And we will.

  • exactly!

  • You're both too stupid to live.

    See you in line at your local recruiting office.

  • he is the looser himself ,try to put failure in google and click on am feeling luck and see what will you get??haha you will get the link to the President of the United States - George W. Bush

  • this war is worth it!! were saving many innocent lives. if u know what saddam was doing over there 2 his ppl u would know. yes we hav lost over 3,000 troops but they hav NOT died in vain!!! god bless our troops!!

  • man, no offense, but that makes no sense. if the issue was that black & white, nobody would object. If it was about saddam hussein, we would have left once we caught him. bush is just trying to get a stable flow of oil from the Iraqis, instead of exploring environment-friendly alternative fuels. U have to read a newspaper every now and then

  • I know we've lost 4,000 troops in Iraq or so, and 50% of Americans are bitching about it, is 4k troops such a big lost? WWII = 250k troops, vietnamn war = 75k troops, and who entered us into all those wars? I tell you who, the Democrats..

    Bush is handling the war better than a democrat would..

  • WWII was won in less time and fought on a MUCH larger front than Shrub's war of CHOICE. The Vietnam causulty rate exploded under Nixon. More troops have died in the first three years of Iraq than did in Vietnam.

    The last Republican to win a war was Lincoln.

  • if you really want to compare body counts from vastly different time periods and methods of fighting...go ahead and waste your time...and if you truly believe that there was even an opportunity for even a 4- year old commander in chief to lose 75 k troops in Iraq your simply insane...tell the mothers of those 4000 troops that it is not a big loss...

  • hello, felow americans

    i guess your DATA is not correct

    there have been more than 3.000 losses in the self proclaimed "coalition forces"

    you are being blocked with the real news

    do you know how many people is poor in 3rd world northAmerica?

  • "Joe: Oh my God, this War On Terrorism is gonna rule! I can't wait until the war is over and there's no more terrorism!

    Sam: I Know! Remember when the U.S. had a drug problem, and then we declared a War On Drugs, and now you can't buy drugs anymore? It'll be just like that!

    Joe: Right! God, if only that War On Drugs hadn't been so effective! I could really use some fucking marijuana right now!"

    Like Nelson Munz would put it "HA HA!" :P

  • lol nice

  • i live in the US and i have to say for myself BUSH IS A FUCKING DUMBFUCK....

  • FDHFsjhfjskfgkjdlFUCKfjksdlffd­fjYou

    Whoever made this video is a fucking moron. Oh my God, I need to get off this page before I develope more rage and stab you in the face for being this idiotic.

  • Explain.

  • oops...

    as long as we don't "cut and run"

  • and wasnt't that the point of "shock and awe"...

    but now we must "stay the course"...

    and then bush said it "never was stay the course"...

    as long as we dont

  • my ass

  • the international community is made up of weaklings who are in denial of the terrorist threat. you mrdavetail have to get your facts straight. i suppose the term ignorance is bliss is a true term.

  • I *really* don't think any Republican should be lecturing people on "denial".

  • give me an example of a republican denial

  • "Last throes", "Mission Accomplished", "Rumsfeld is the best thing to happen to the Pentagon in 25 years", "I should of said, 'We know where the WMD's WERE'", "Afghanistan is a success", "The North Koreans have agreed to negotiate", "Stuff happens!", "Heckuva job, Brownie", "Rumsfeld is doing a heckuva job", giving the Medal of Freedom to Bremer, Franks & Tenet, "Cheney and Rumsfeld will remain for as long as I'm President"...

    Shall I go on?

  • eric... you moron if Kerry were president, you'd still be respected by the international community... go choke on your freedom fries

  • Fuck the "International Community"! They'll be happy if the democrats keep kissing Kofy Annons ass and letting him steal millions we give in aid for his own pocket.

  • Kofi Annan retires in December, genius.

  • Sure am glad Bush as the balls to keep the muslim terrorists across the ocean in Europe, Asia, and Africa. If Kerry were prez we'd be required to say prayers 5 times a day while facing mecca.

  • dya no wut, i dnt get y loadsa peeps h8 bush but yet u still vote 4 im :S

  • Terrorism is an idea and a strategy.How do you go to war against a strategy? "Everybody's worried about stopping terrorism. Well, there's a really easy way: stop participating in it." N.C.

  • iraq is worse than vietnam because at least there was no rise in terrorism now with bush and the muslims punching on we have a shitty planet to live on

  • More like war on the American People. The terrorists must have been real happy when the Patriot Act and other bills were passed to take away our rights they hate us so much for. BuckFush.

  • Bush knows better than anyone, for hes engeneering this fake 'war of terror'.

    Call for Bush to face war crimes!

  • Agreed 100%

    Bush to face war crimes!

    This charade has gone on long enough.

  • This is something I wanted to see for a long time, Bush is a fucking retard and should have never been Persident, he made living in Canada suck for 5 years with all the crap he's been doing (Alberta beef, the black-out and blaming us, ect.)

  • Misleading title...

  • Only thing "misleading" is the suggestion Bush is "consciously" admitting failure. But otherwise, it's dead-on.

  • Nah, that's his way of scaring people into supporting him so he can continue this "war."

  • Not really... this speech came after the war, IF after spending that much on the wareffort, the enemy still hasnt lost the ability or will t attack... then the war was a failure... HOWEVER yes it is somewhat of a misleading title

  • HE'S A DUMB SHIT.

  • Don't bother replying to statements like MICHAELKEASLER's. He says that because he doesn't want to beleive that terrorism is benefitial for the Bush administration. Just ignore the retard unless a video like this has many views and his dumbass comments actually make people think Bush is right.

  • Bush is right. And you know it and you can't stand it. A great President is always under fire.

  • Thank you for admitting Bill Clinton was a great President.

  • bush is the the terrorist.

  • A war criminal is right? Have you read the downing street memo (wherin he talks about flying a spy drone over Iraqi airspace so it will get shot down and will give him a precdent for war) or any of the other proofs. Face it. Bush lied

  • if bush was right then how come many americans are rioting over all the lies he has made. think about it first. lets say for instance if you wore an honest person then many people will stand at your side, its common sense.

  • Your a fucking moron. This video has nothing to do with admitting we failed. You have no clue what your talking about, people like you just love to say you hate the president because its popular, just jumping on the Bandwagon . . .

  • Since this is from President Bush's *2006* State of the Union Address... 2100 dead American soldiers later... If the goal of invading Iraq was to make us "safer", what exactly had been achieved if "the enemy has not lost the desire or ability to attack us"? Wasn't that the point of invading Iraq in the first place? Doesn't sound like a particularly "moronic" question.

  • Im saying hes a fuckign moron because he said Terrorism is beneficial to the Bush Administration. Obviously it is helping him become popular. . . look at his approval rating

  • Being popular isn't necessarily part of being the president, doing what is right, and just is important. Esspecialy when more then 75% of America is idiots. All of the democrats are included in that demographic by the way.

  • lmao

  • His words were not an admittance of failure....they were a warning, a motivator if you will, for the people of the US and our elected officials to stay the course and continue our battle.

  • You're an idiot. Stay the course? What in that statement suggests "the course" has done a damn thing in five years?

    When a bus driver is driving you off a cliff, but insists that he knows what he's doing, do you "stay the course" or take hold of the steering wheel?

  • Also it doesn't matter because this "War on Terror" is so vague that you could never actually win it unless you can control everyone in the world.

  • Have you been to the middle east recently? I have had several family memebers return from Iraq and all have reported improvments during their deployment. "Stay the course" simply means don't run away, keep fighting the good fight.
