		<description>You liberals really are destroying this country.  I thank GOD that people like Sean Hannity have the guts to stand up and speak his mind the way he does.  Finally, someone has come along in the media to tell the truth.  Some people have labelled Sean Hannity as a liberal because if we wasn&#039;t, he&#039;d have a &quot;real job.&quot;  I don&#039;t agree with this because what Hannity does is a service to America and GOD bless him for doing it.  

Stop picking on Bush&#039;s mother.  That is tasteless and rude.  My Christian upbringing taught me to treat other people with decency, but it&#039;s quite apparent that you liberals have no moral backbone and fling hurtful, ugly words at people without any forthought.  You should be ashamed of yourself. 

And stop picking on Rush Limbaugh just because he had a drug habit.  Its very stressful doing what he does for a living because he&#039;s constantly harrassed by liberals like you, just for speaking the truth about black people and Jews and gays.  

If you can&#039;t take the heat, then don&#039;t dish it out.

		<description>It is long past time to impeach chickenhawks Bush and Cheney.  Bush is stupid and Cheney is evil.

High crimes:  Lying about WMD, preemptive war, biggest national debt ever, tax cuts to wealthy, torture of prisoners, thievery with Enron, no-bid conracts Halliburton, outing Valerie Plame, warrantless wiretapping, Arab nation running our ports, incompetence Katrina, stifling stem cell research on faith based notion cells are people, violation of church and state, promoting creationism in science classes, bigotry against gays, disregard of environment because the rapture is coming.

What does it take?</description>

		<description>If I remember correctly, during that same interview Bush senior said of the impending Iraq situation something like...
&quot;We&#039;ve gone to war before, like Vietnam, and everything has turned out alright.&quot;
I am paraphrasing but the jist of his comment was unmistakable. 
At some level, you have to think that these are deeply ambivalent and somewhat evil people. Evil becuase of the inhumanity exhibited towards the everyday folks who have to make sacrifices at their whim.</description>

		<description>Did you all ever notice that when W is talking about death and dying he has a smirk on his face.  I have watched it for years.  As for BB, she even says W is her spawn and gets his vacant mind from her. I don&#039;t think we&#039;ll ever get to impeachment but I have to say that I am ashamed that he is President of the US and I don&#039;t think history will be kind to him.</description>

		<description>Barbara Bush is a ninny and a half.  Tonight, 6 September 2005, she has just said about those suffering from the Hurricaine Katrina disaster and who now living in stadiums and shelters that &quot;they were underprivileged anyway, so this is working out really well for them.&quot;

I have nothing but contempt for that old woman and nothing but pity for her husband.  Now you see where her son&#039;s idiocy comes from.</description>

		<description>I feel the loss of all the soldiers and how families are having to deal with that.  Me lossing a father to war has been tough.  Here are the issues that we must confront first.

1.  The middle east and how dictatorships/fundelmentislm effect the world today and 20 years from now.  If you do alot of research on the middle east, the present form was created by the colonial powers of France, Britian, the Dutch, and Italy.  This was due to the breaking of the Ottoman Empire ( a European dominated Muslim Empire) after WWI.  By getting the breakouts each country setup a seperate group to be in charge.  Alot of these were Monarchies ie Kings and Sultans.  These countries were forced and I mean forced to include tribes and sects that don&#039;t even have ethnic workings.  The Ottoman Empire was controlled by fear and that has been the way the mideast has been controlled since.  Anyway we all know that Isreal was created by the UK at the end of WWII and many of the other countries were set free to there present governments.
Then came Nassar- and Pan Arabism- this was influenced mainly by the Soviet Union but Egypt, Syria, (Jordan to a certain extent), and Iraq.  What they believed was a big country of sorts that would be all Arab.  Again Arab doesn&#039;t mean Muslim.  Baathism is an outgrowth of that movement.  The major defeats of the Isreali Wars were big blows to this and fractionalism has been big because of that.  Baathism is a Stalinistic society very similar to old Red China and present day NK.  Terrorism was being funded by Iraq and Syria as it is done today.  With the advent of a new fundamentalism that was produced by Iran and even sponsored by the US in places like Afganistan this has been very interesting.  Once people get to talk to individuals who live over in places like Iran and such they start to understand that power that the top of governments have and the people don&#039;t is really becoming difficult to deal with.

2.  How do we move them on-  Interesting delimas will start to spring up for many of the Arab non-democratic nations.  They know they have been fostering negative societies and putting much of the blame on there economies (Egypt), social plight(Iran), and lack of democracy (SA) on the US.  The US has dealt with each nation as a chip rather than as partner.  China is doing that right now in what is described as Oilnomics.  If we push for more freedom or equality the countries throw out that wouldn&#039;t work or you don&#039;t want Iran.  So we just did business as usual. Then sept 11th came.  We had to take a look.  We can destroy any country and kill every inhabitant in that country without one Nuke.  We don&#039;t do that because we believe that people are descent and freedom loving and if we give them a chance it will turn out all right.  What we don&#039;t have hear is the domination and subjigation of different groups over time.  If we can help these people in Iraq power share, develope true systems of law, and give them equality and hope you will see things start to change.  

That is the goal and it is a very important one.  Oil and natural gas are going to be more and more important in the future.  The only way you can: A) make people share that wealth is a free society and B) make sure that money is not used for terrorism (like it is in SA right now by some of the shieks and princes) is to get these countries moveing the right way.

So how do you knock a guy off the top if he doesn&#039;t want too and he has the power to stay there.

You go to WAR.

That is it.

Good night.</description>

		<description>Bush told his biographer in 1999&quot; If I ever get the opportunity to invade, I will use the political capital I gain from it to accomplish everything I ever wanted to accomplish&quot; Well, he got his invasion, he and Condi orchestrated it. He got his power, and he got his way. The Bush minds have never been troubled by reality, insulated as they are by all their wealth and privilege.Barb&#039;s grandchildren will not suffer from this war[and even if they did, Im not convinced the cow would care]Bush&#039;s twins will not die for his&quot;honorable cause&quot;. And he wont talk to Cindy because he is a coward.</description>

		<description>&quot;I also acknowledge that Casey re-enlisted, knowing what terrible dangers he faced and for THAT I rebuke his dear mother for not honoring the choices of her son.&quot;

Fvck you, you monstrously disgusting ignoramus.  If Casey were still here and it was some other mother&#039;s son, he would have been on the line with her, right next to Cindy.

&quot;I bring no dishonor to my childâ€™s memory by blaming everyone BUT the killer of my child.&quot;

Saddam didn&#039;t kill Casey, Bush and Rumsfeld did by creating this war and sending Casey into a fire zone.  More immediately, he was killed by the followers of Muqtada Sadr, who were unleashed after privatizer-in-chief Paul Bremer called for Sadr&#039;s arrest because he wasn&#039;t toeing the invaders&#039; line.  Sadr is a Shiâ€™ite cleric; Saddam was a Ba&#039;athist.  I know that means nothing to you, because like most of Bush&#039;s drooling felchsuckers, you&#039;re an ignorant cretin.</description>

<p>Fvck you, you monstrously disgusting ignoramus.  If Casey were still here and it was some other mother&#8217;s son, he would have been on the line with her, right next to Cindy.</p>
<p>&#8220;I bring no dishonor to my childâ€™s memory by blaming everyone BUT the killer of my child.&#8221;</p>
<p>Saddam didn&#8217;t kill Casey, Bush and Rumsfeld did by creating this war and sending Casey into a fire zone.  More immediately, he was killed by the followers of Muqtada Sadr, who were unleashed after privatizer-in-chief Paul Bremer called for Sadr&#8217;s arrest because he wasn&#8217;t toeing the invaders&#8217; line.  Sadr is a Shiâ€™ite cleric; Saddam was a Ba&#8217;athist.  I know that means nothing to you, because like most of Bush&#8217;s drooling felchsuckers, you&#8217;re an ignorant cretin.<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=109189', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>&quot;waste my beautiful mind? is that verbatim?&quot;

What cave do people live in?

&quot;Thatâ€™s outrageous. What was Barbara thinking?&quot;

What were Marie Antoinette or Hitler thinking?  What can you expect of a woman who kicks dogs and raised scumballs like George, Jeb, and Neil?

&quot;I wish the left would at least admit the truth â€” that they donâ€™t really want President Bush to meet with Sheehan. Theyâ€™d rather be able to criticize him for being â€œheartlessâ€ than have him actually talk to her. After all, that would show him for what he is, a reasonable person (who has met with several families of war dead).&quot;

Well, moron, then since he DIDN&#039;T meet with her, it shows that he isn&#039;t reasonable.  And he DID meet with Sheehan and her family, and called her &quot;mom&quot; and generally acted like the asshole he is.

&quot;He is our president. Do you think he wanted this on his shoulders upon election?&quot;

Yes, Stephen, Bush wanted to invade Iraq since BEFORE he was Resident; 9/11 just gave him the opportunity -- that&#039;s the word Condi Rice used at the first NSA meeting after 9/11: &quot;opportunity&quot;.</description>

		<description>Stephen,

To carry out his own neocon-influenced agenda US President George W. Bush deliberately set our own house on fire, assuming that we would have no choice but to help him put out the flames.  He did this in order to destroy the current American way of life and to build a new house - a conservative, commercial, WASP one dominated by the love of money, power, and self-promotion - and the more profit he and his friends can make along the way the better he likes it.  They are laughing all the way to the bank.  He would also not hesitate to set the entire world on fire for the very same reasons; he smirks at the rest of the world. This delusional, bible-reading, church-going demagogue is no less the enemy than the criminals who attacked the World Trade Center - only your fellow citizens  elected this one to do what he&#039;s doing.  Bush got the US into this mess, and I&#039;m content to let him dangle slowly in the wind even if he tries to get us out of it.  If he wants help and pity let him turn to his mother.  As you sow, so shall you reap.  And goofy, supercilious, condescending Bush is the Grim Reaper.  Stephen, did he want this burden on his shoulders?  You bet he did.  Unless I&#039;m mistaken he bit, clawed, and scratched for years to achieve just that.  Now let him enjoy every horrible morsel of this bitter meal he&#039;s concocted.  According to his doctors his health is fantastic, so he appears actually to thrive on what he&#039;s done.</description>

		<description>Hello!
I hate war, I hate peace.  I hate yelling, I hate crying.  I hate sitting, I hate watching.
He is our president.  Do you think he wanted this on his shoulders upon election? I know we all loved 9/11, right?  Stand behind someone - take your place.</description>

		<description>Funny, Mother Bush should add insult to injury in such a painful context - no, tragic.
This kind of attitude and statement clearly show how scum the rest of the Americans are to the Bush monarchy. We, the people.......

Never has the word democracy has been used so much in vain by this administration, never are the poor and helpless citizen of this country have felt left-out, never have the neo con made so much money on an illegal war that has killed over 2000 US servicemen and women, never have I seen such arrogance in pursuing such a criminal act.

Al-Quaida is no match for Bush. Bush shall however be punished in due time by the American citizens who will use American laws.  

This administration has been a disgrace to the human race. Hell cannot burn long enough for the damned.</description>

		<description>Wake Up Americans:

1. We went to war with a country for a reason that did no exist.  Even the after the fact reasons were corrected when challenged.

2. We paid xxx Billion dollars to support the war.

3. How much is gasoline today in your neighborhood?  Mine is up about $1.25 - $2.50  (per gallon)

Now count what the war costs in dollars...

Yep, that is just a daily cost.

And now add that up for the length of this excursion into Vietnam-Baghdad-Pakistan soon to be IRAN WAR on Terror a.k.a. The Bush Wars...

What we got left...

Oh yes, those young people who die every day on Televison (the ones we whould be seeing every day so that we can rembenmber as a country what this war actually DOES COST us).

Now - How many Americans who supported the war to &quot;Free&quot; the Iraqi people from terrorism have kept up with the number of Iraqi&#039;s that have died so far since this war was begun...

How many give a damn?  

Now, I tend to think that we are at war because most of the honest god-fearing people in the great country of ours honestly don&#039;t know a thing about the world outside their immediate neighborhood, but they do feel informed when they read an article or adopt a child in a foreign land who they will never see.

But again, how many of these people have thought about the number of souls they have collectively sent to meet their maker?

Think about it...</description>

		<description>Barbara Bush has always been a sarcastic, snarling windbag who doesn&#039;t give a rat&#039;s rump about anyone or anyting outside her sychophantic circle.  Her children are losers, and even her grandchildren share the family&#039;s substance abuse genes.  If you want to understand the personality defects and intellectual shortcomings of her son, the president, you have to look no further than the bitter matriarch herself.  Geoge senior must rue the day he decided to sell out his life for marriage to that woman.</description>
