His Katrina comment was a fucking disgrace to hear. What an arrogant dick.

[boretalyn]

He never gave a damn about us. He was too busy flying over the state and going to McBushs birthday party to care or give a damn about louisiana. There is a saying " YOu get out of life what you put into it." So he wont leave this earth until he has paid for his crimes and his bigotry and hatred of other races especially the brown race, all over this country and all over the world. Karma and God will make him pay and that is just for starters.

THIS CREATURE IS THE MOST DISGRACEFUL EXCUSE FOR A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES CONCEIVABLE, THE PSYCHOPATHIC RAMBLINGS OF A LUNATIC WHO IS CLEARLY DRUNK. WHEN THIS FREAK FINALLY IS BROUGHT TO JUSTICE, AND HE WILL BE, HE WILL SING SING SING RIGHT BEFORE HE SWINGS SWINGS SWINGS. HE KNOWS HE IS GOING TO GO DOWN FOR THIS AND THAT IT IS JUST A MATTER TIME UNTIL THE PEOPLE GET HIM AND HAVE THEIR WAY WITH HIM.

..and how many years were we safe beforehand?

And if Obama gets reelected, and there isn't a terrorist attack for his full 8 years? Does that make him 1 year better of a leader than Bush?

Or what if whoever gets elected next becomes a de facto dictator, proceeds to invade foreign countries at will while gutting the economy and stripping civil liberties at home, all in the name of your benevolent protection?

Are these actions than justified if no foreign terrorist attacks?

"I built a very capable team... who were there to serve the country."

Oh no sir, some very capable people built your very capable team who very capably served their own interests.

[TheFadedfool]

"Not having weapons of mass destruction was a significant disappointment."

Haha... it's like a cop who shoots a man in the back, THEN pats him down to discover he's unarmed, calling it a disappointment.

And this man, like that cop, is gonna go uncharged for his crime.

[benens]

funny, i'd almost already forgotton what kind of a joke this guy was or is.

[femalefootkisser]

I love your thought process. I think like and agree with you!! Best of luck always!!

[Speedfreely]

I wonder how many of you Bush haters HATE your job or your current boss. You do? why is that? Because the boss has the best interest of the company in mind and not you? Well then....how about that. Its what keeps him employed, keeps him motivated to grow the company, strive for being better, bigger, stronger. Ever hear the saying "Only the strong survive?" Well, how about this saying. "You don't know what you have until its gone." But have no fear, if Obama fails, just put it on Bush!!
