What an utter idiot.

Thought bubble above the Idiot Bush's head: "Can't wait to tee off this afternoon!"

@bapyou I think that's actually Obama's line.

Aung San Suu Kyi, a force and symbol for and of democracy and hope.

George W. Bush, a force and symbol for and of fascism and despair.

@bapyou I should have known better, have way more important things going on here. Fascism and despair. Pure empty rhetoric, conventional progg wisdom, nothing will persuade a reconsideration when it's based on that. And the Unocal cabal on top. Priceless. Hate him all you want, he doesn't care. Neither do I.

I am a Burmese. I lived in Burma, Yangon(Rangoon) until 3 years ago when i moved here to U.S. and guess what? I have no idea what was happening in my country while i was living in it. Until i arrived here to U.S. i was shocked by the truth. Burma is one of the country with the most censorship. I was ignorant . But please support Aung San Su Kyi and the citizens in Burma. The soldiers i can't understand. What are they trying to protect by becoming a soldier?

This guy has so much trouble with his speech. Can't pronounce "nuclear" till this day let alone getting "Aung San Suu Kyi" right.

@bapyou Your one note tune is getting monotonous here, your figure is bullshit, and my patience has ended.

[gundamWWW]

Let's just be happy, that this one of the FEW things Bush manged to do correctly.

@agam4 "And the Unocal cabal on top" Not a cabal or a conspiracy theory in the least. Anyone who is educated on the topic of Burma knows the interests of Unocal, and what they do to defend those intests ... and, what the United States does in looking the other way to the abuses in which Unocal engages. If George Bush was truly concerned about getting rid of "evil regimes," Burma would have been top on his list. It wasn't. What a fake idiot.
