The letters thread is now closed.
  • It's nice but

    Kicking ass isn't the objective. A stable Iraq is.

  • Uncouth moron

    Inarticulate incoherent dilettante crass idiot slob who thinks he's Savior of Humanity. Depressing.

  • A Plausible Explanation

    One of the advisors to the Sock Puppet-in-Chief showed him a video of a Halo 3 battle instead of actual Iraq War footage. Which might also explain the enigmatic quotations about lasers and giant space insects.

  • GW needs a reality check

    I guess he hasn't seen "Iraq in Pieces" or "No end in sight."

    Will this President EVER pay a price for being utterly deluded? Ever?

    Or, if he's merely a cynic, will he ever pay a price for lying almost continously about the Iraq war, and about nearly everything else he's been involved with since he gained office in 2000 by cheating?

    This Administration is going to provide a nice living for historians for the next century and beyond. What a fucking mess.

  • What a relief!

    And here I though we were sucking balls.

  • Very true

    If he meant we're kicking our own ass.

  • They hate our freedom

    They also don't like that we think kicking their ass is somehow helping them.

  • "we're kicking ass"

    What's he got a mouse in his pocket? Our "fearless " leader. His chance to actually kick ass was punted during the Viet Nam conflict where he chose to "turn ass" and run rather than "kick ass" and fight. He's a chicken ass chicken hawk prima classe who plays cynical games with people's lives. He has been shown to be what he is: A vile human. Nauseating. Pure unaltered nausea.

  • The "kicking ass" is only part of it

    Read the full story. What a fucking buffoon.

  • Ass-Kicking

    Bringing honor and dignity back to the Oval Office.

  • Believing is seeing.

    TupeloN8, that was quite vulgar. And quite hilarious.

    Of course Bush thinks "we're kicking ass." He sees progress because he really, really wants it.

    At the national level there is reconciliation, but not nearly as fast as some would like. By the way, people who don't believe we should be in Iraq in the first place, there's no political reconciliation that can take place to justify your opinion. If you don't think Iraq is important, if you don't think it matters what the society looks like there, then there's not enough amount of reconciliation that will cause people to say, great, it's working. If you believe like I believe, that the security of the United States and the peace of the world depend upon a democracy in the Middle East and Iraq, then you can see progress. And I'm seeing it.

  • "Kicking Ass In Iraq?"

    Whatever happened to "Bin Laden, dead or alive."

    "You will adore me. That's an order."

  • Let's Be Fair Guys

    Bush isn't at fault here. He heard the surge is working on the Limbaugh show.

  • That Funny Whirring Sound In the Distance?

    It's the deceased presidents spinning in their graves for the loss of dignity brought to the office.

  • Bring it on!

    Yet some how knocking out one's teeth while inserting one's Bruno Maglis in one's oral orifice counts as kicking ass, sir.

  • George W. Bush is a frakking idiot! An embarrassment to the nation!

    Did Bush really say that? Does this idiot have any idea what happens in a war? People are getting shot to pieces, blown to pieces, cut to pieces, suffering and dying, and this putz, this idiot who somehow landed in the Oval Office, brags about it like he's a 14 year-old boy? Is stupidity an impeachable offense?

    Maybe if Bush had spent some time in Vietnam instead of the Texas Guard (when he was actually there, that is), he might understand something about war and the reality of death. But then, what do you want from a brain-addled ex-drunk who blew up frogs as a spoiled rich kid and then grew up to send more people to death row (and laugh about it) than any other Governor?

    January 2009 cannot arrive fast enough!

  • I have always wondered...

    why Bush, a devout Christian, is so willing to use profanity. Profanity is not common in the general Christian community, (at least in mine).

  • Bush Team Studying "Rambo III" -- Plan To Announce New Strategy

    Sources close to the President say he has consulted the tape (which he refers to as "a historical record of a previous military engagement in Afghanistan") dozens of times and will announce a new strategy for stabalizing the Afghanistan region.

    Sylvestor Stallone has met with the President several times in what aides refer to as "frank discussions."

    "Having weighed all the evidence," the President said earlier today. "I've asked the commanders on the ground to send in John Rambo. Clearly this man has the experience necessary to....what? Of course he's real! I done seen him on the tube myself! You're a traitor! You're all traitors! Whaa! Whaa!"

    The President was medicated shortly after that address and dragged off the stage.

    The Press (as always) described the briefing as "powerful" and "intelligent."

  • We elected him TWICE...

    ...and it was crystal clear during the 2000 election that he had absolutely no business occupying that office. Yes, he's a buffoon, and he makes the entire nation look like baffoons.

    "Bring it on", "We're kicking ass", it doesn't take a genius to realize that kind of inflamatory nonsence will do nothing but infuriate and incite the very people who wish to harm us.

    I go back to money whenever I comment on Iraq. As long as that situation festers and simmers just like it is with no end in sight and nothing trully being accomplished, the cash facet is turned on, and all of the Bush/Cheney cronies are making fortunes. I'm beginning to wonder if his "Bring it on/We're kicking ass" comments aren't just stupid.

  • Is today too early to begin impeachment of this ignorant assclown?

    Excuse me, Mr. Former-cheerleader-draft-dodger-drunk-driver-coke-snorter-insider-trader-AWOL-punk, but you never kicked ass in your life. Or is that going to be your big story to tell after you're out of office and on the lecture circuit replenishing the old coffers?

    Are you gonna be telling everyone how you kicked ass in Iraq and too fucking bad about the 650,000+ dead Iraqis and the 4,000 dead GI's . . . but you sure kicked ass? Is that your schtick, Mr. President??

  • Bush Orders Troops To Fire @ Broken Water Pipes -- Urges Patience For His Plan

    "The Iraqi water system is engaging in hostile actions against the Iraqi people.....by not working," the President announced earlier today.

    "I've ordered our troops to fire their weapons at the water pipes until the pipes surrender and agree to start delivering clean water to the decent people of Iraq!"

    (appluase)

    "There are some Democrats in Congress who want to admit defeat before this strategy has even had a chance to work! Right now less than one percent of our troops in Iraq are currently firing their weapons at these water pipes. I urge the Demcorats in Congress to set aside partisan politics and give the troops an additional six months of firing their weapons at the water pipes in order to see if THAT works! I also ask Congress to pass legislation giving me 1 trillion dollars for, uh, for, um, for additional war related stuff. If they could just deposit that money directly into the accounts Dick Cheney has emailed y'all that'd be super.

    Let's kick ass! Team America!"

    The press described the President's remarks as thoughtful, sober and Wilsonian.
