What’s worse than a really, really stupid President…

Unread postby mark » Thu 12 Jul 2007, 13:50:58

…a really, really delusional idiot with visions of grandeur and more weapons than God.

I only caught part of the deciders press conference, wish I’d had the stomach for more but there’s only so much any one person can handle.

He actually said he preferred to handle the Iraq problem diplomatically when we’ve all seen numerous reports which confirm our suspicions that it was a done deal even before 9-11.

He actually thinks al qaeda today is weaker than they would have been if we did not invade Iraq. I guess he thinks we’re all idiots too.

I truly believe he believes everything he says. Example: Rice imploring an oval office visitor “not to make him mad.” The surgeon general quoted today as saying science was not to conflict with the president’s religious or ideological view, nor Rove’s political imperatives. How many times does this idiot have to confirm our worst thoughts about him?

Our nation has survived idiots before and I suppose we’ll survive this one too???

Oh, wait… we won’t have the energy to do so this time, will we???

Maybe we did and maybe we didn't. It wasn't just the shenanigans during the count but the games played before the election. Of course, then there's 2004 to explain...

Sometimes I rue the day I ever learned about peak oil.

Ummm... people who still think he isn't? And that he and his compatriots are honest, upstanding citizens who would never lie to us?

An electorate who doesn’t care?

No, on second though, it is a country without an electorate.

"President Bush was hired to know more than the people, to be told all the deep inside intelligence, all the facts Americans are not told, and do the right and smart thing in response.

You hire a president and tell him to take care of everything you can't take care of -- the security of the nation, its well-being, its long-term interests....You handle what you can handle within your ken, and give the big things to the president.

And if he can't do it....you get mad. And you fire him.

Americans can't fire the president right now, so they're waiting it out."

JR,

I think who the president is really matters. That's why John and Bobby Kennedy were assassinated.

Of course it did then, but real elections aren't a problem anymore with today's technology.

Observe the Supreme Court over the next 20 years and get back to us.

That is, if reality lets you.
