  • @syedjameel99 i ment 9/11

  • i think we all fucking know that 1/11 was a inside job done by bush him self!.. and there is proof baecause the day it happend alot of people didnt turn up now ask your self the question if this wasent planed to happen then why didnt they came?

  • It is the responsibility of the President to protect the United States from enemies both foreign and domestic. Bush successfully did that here and you can see that the more strident interrogations happen on his authority, and they're rare. ALL OF THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD BE.

    Nobody likes to see anyone suffer, but one has to consider the suffering of near future victims, and numbers of suffering should factor in.

    Bush was the compassionate one in this particular situation.

  • people call bush a war criminal who the hell is going to arrest a american president, no one has the balls to ever try, your country would be wipped off the map

  • Bush is a war criminal. If Obama doesn't charge him then he should be put on trial in The Hague.

  • I would love to take this lier mother fucker and put a big dick in his ass until he confess sep11...

  • God bless Bush? God bless Jesus. He loved torture too. In fact, when Jesus felt he had to protect his followers, he asked for some legal advice and when these legal advisers deemed the proposed torture techniques legal, he went ahead and ordered the application of said techniques. To protect his followers from more attacks. It's in the Bible.

    .

    You fucking morons. Do you ever look in the mirror and tell yourself: it's amazing how fucking crazy I really am?

  • bush sucks i was laughing so hard when he got a shoe thrown at him but the guy that threw it missed so that was a bumer and all the poeple that think that bush was a good president then they must be crazy and i know that obama isnt any good either
