‘The Decider’ speaks.

By Faiz Shakir on Apr 20th, 2007 at 11:55 am

‘The Decider’ speaks.

Yesterday at an event in Ohio, President Bush, aka “The Decider,” explained to the audience, “My job is a job to make decisions. I’m a decision — if the job description were, what do you do — it’s decision-maker. And I make a lot of big ones, and I make a lot of little ones.” Watch it:

[flv http://video.thinkprogress.org/2007/04/bushdecision.320.240.flv]

To illustrate the decision-making pressures of his job, Bush said he had to make his “first decision” right before he got sworn in. Bush: “And the phone rang, and the head usher at the White House said, ‘President-elect Bush.’ I said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘What color rug do you want in the Oval Office?’”

Digg It!

    The decider has given another job description for himself and managed to bring the Oval Office rug into it again… He must be really proud of that rug…

  2. Raven says:

    And every one of your decisions is exactly what the script handed to you read…..

    “I make a lot of big ones and I make a lot of little ones.”

    Too bad he doesn’t make a lot of right ones.


  4. Raven says:

    Oh, and the story goes (according to Dubious himself) that he fielded the question of “what color rug” to LaLa……….
    Can’t wait to hear what he spews forth today…………..

    He’s just so funny that I don’t even know where to begin to laugh.

    Gosh, aparently there are no black people in Ohio. Or Asians. Or Hispanics. Or Middle-Easterners.


  8. werenotgonnatakeit says:

    That rug really tied the room together!

    Seriously, anybody who needs congratulation on deciding on a rug is a moron at best. Does he proudly show Dick Cheney his poo? We may be lucky he hasn’t screwed up this country more….


  9. GSD says:

    We are all praying for the day when the rug gets pulled out from under The Decider’s clown-shoe wearing deet.

    -GSD


  10. Republicans are the Fear and Smear Party says:

    Perhaps the “head usher” wanted to know if Bush would like his rug the color of snow.


  11. Some Guy says:

    Please decide to leave office. Please. Before it’s too late. You can do it!

    Is it true he actually considered using Blunt & Lott’s toupee’s for the WH rug?


  14. Rebel in CA says:

    “…I’m a Decision…”

  17. kelso says:

    He’s been talking about that damn rug since day one of his presidency. WTF is so special about a stupid rug?

    You can get 5 rugs for 5 bucks at a street market in Baghdad!! Just ask Lindsey Graham!!


  18. j.j. says:

    another none story, how about putting up quotes from drunk and murder Ted Kennedy were he slurs his Rs, can barely put up sentences together, or from John Kerry or any other politician.

    sad, sad, but Bush Derangement Syndrome at full speed.

    there is a reason why Lenin called his left wing follower useful idiots just read at the ridiculous posts on this thread. True useful idiots of the left, Lenin is laughing at all of you from his grave and still calling you all, useful idiots.


  19. Bob says:

    Yes, he’s made a lot of big decisions and a lot of small decisions and a lot of wrong decisions and a lot of idiotic decisions. If he ever decides to resign, it will be his only correct decision and the only one I would fully support.


  20. rfinca says:

    There is a lady in the audience laughing.


  21. hellinabucket says:

    Bush has forgotten who the real decision makers are. Let’s all remind him with an impeachment.

    It will need to be a public outcry because the current congress has yet to grasp this. They have woken up from their 6 year slumber and are dusting off the oversight responsibility that was dormant but I have yet to hear the roar that should come from responsible people looking at the failures Bush has been the “Decider” on.


  22. RSA says:

    “I make a lot of big ones, and I make a lot of little ones.”

    I expect to see a line like this in a book about toilet-training for toddlers, not in a speech by the President.


  23. Zooey says:

    There wasn’t a rug in the Oval Office?

    And, BTW, what the hell does that have to do with ACTUAL decisions?

    For that matter, what does the Chimp have to do with actual decisions?

    Nevermind……..


  24. TerrytheTurtle says:

    Chimpy – hand over the keys to the country before anyone else gets hurt, please.


  25. VerbalKint says:

    What an idiot. Bush doesn’t seem to realize that a big part of his job is to gather quality information upon which to base those decisions. Instead he bases his decisions on what his frat boy gut instincts tell him.


  26. VerbalKint says:

    #18 HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA….

    See you in 2008, idiot.


  27. Raging Gurrl says:

    Oh lawdy, lawdy. Is he really talking about rugs now?
    He’s gone bat sh*t crazy or he’s drinking again.


  28. themann1086 says:

    I thought his job was to do his job…


  29. Robert says:

    JJ, Go suck eggs. If you can’t see we have an incompetent, corrupt, out of touch, arrogant BUFFOON as President of the United States you are just as incompetent, out of touch, and arrogant as the President you have such childlike, unquestioning adoration for.


  30. raynman says:

    and then yesterday, Karl let me use the big boy’s potty for the first time.


  31. VerbalKint says:

    I just thought to myself that my likely answer to the head usher about the rug would have been a question that Bush has never, nor will ever, ask himself: “What if I decide later that I made a bad choice? Will I be able to change it then?”


  32. j.j. says:

    hellinabucket,

    let’s remind him with an impeachment? idiot you can’t impeach the President you moron, only Congress can. wow, poor fools.


  33. VerbalKint says:

    By the way, don’t those proposed War Czar duties sound an awful lot like Bush”s job?


  34. Ben Dover says:

    How can anyone support this marble-mouthed moron? JH Christ. He’s more than an embarassment to this country he’s a detriment. I just wish someone could get video of Jeff Gannon giving him a blowjob so the Reichwing would come together and agree on his impeachment. We have 640 more days of this lunatic to endure otherwise.

    How Bush chose stupidity.

    Bush was not born stupid. He chose stupidity. Bush may look like a well-meaning dolt. On consideration, he’s something far more dangerous: a dedicated fool.


  36. Kate Henry says:

    What rug color do you want in your office was probably the only decision this “decider” has made that isn’t likely to contribute to destroying the United States of America. Too bad he couldn’t have stopped there.


  37. j.j. says:

    Robert,

    If you can’t see that you are wrong and that you have Bush Derangement Syndrome and that you need immedite psychological help you are in huge trouble.

    VerbalKint,

    I can guarantee you that your party will lose in 2008, you will not control both the Executive and the Legislative Branch, I can guarantee you that.

    besides, aren’t you liberals the ones that say that is terrible for government when one party controls both the Executive and the Legislative Branch? oh you only care when this happens when Republicans control two branches of government, if Democrats control it you don’t care, right?

    see you in 2008 and I will laugh when you guys lose control of Congress.


  38. TerrytheTurtle says:

    That paliamentary system of government looks better every day, eh?

  41. buzzbomb says:

    Kennedy and Kerry are ten thousand times more articulate than “decider”. The man is a mental midget. Bush is the president, not John Kerry, not Ted Kennedy. Do you revel in the fact that we have a President that can’t put a coherent sentence together, jj? It’s a joke. A sad little man in a position so beyond his capabilities.

    j.j. – you should change your boxers after that rant – they’ll be all starchy when it dries.


  44. dumbstruck says:

    I’d guess after he made that decision, that was about it for the day…?


  45. j.j. says:

    here is an “educated” Democrat who doesn’t know the difference between the Sunis and the Shiites…..careful Liberals, I will find more and more quotes and instances where your party shows that they are idiots….

    and let us not forget that this PResident which you consider an idiot was supposedly able to lie to the super, duper intelligent members of the Democratic Party into voting for the Iraq War. So if Bush is an idiot as you liberal wackos claim, what does that make the Democrats that believed the lies of this supposed idiot? much bigger idiots!!! :)

    anyway, read the level of stupidity of Democrat politicians.

    Now lets go to a Democrat, Representative Sylvestre Reyes right of Texas, Nancy Pelosis pick as head of the House Intelligence Committee. The freshly anointed Reyes told Newsweek: “Were not going to have stability in Iraq until we eliminate those militias, those private armies. We have to consider the need for additional troops to be in Iraq, to take out the militias and stabilize Iraq… I would say 20,000 to 30,000 – for the specific purpose of making sure those militias are dismantled, working in concert with the Iraqi military.”

    Reyes comes to his important post with an open mind, meaning an empty one. He knows nothing of the region. This became clear in his brief parley with a reporter from the Congressional Quarterly who had the impudence to question him at the end of a tiring day, when men of mature judgment head for the bar.

    CQs man asked Reyes if al-Qaeda was Sunni or Shiite. Reyes tossed a mental coin. “Predominantly – probably Shiite.” Wrong, of course, since al-Qaeda is Sunni – of a notoriously intolerant strain. Its as if Reyes had called the Pope a Presbyterian.

    Then the pesky newshound probed him on the matter of Hezbollah. “Hezbollah. Uh, Hezbollah…” Reyes answered irritably. “Why do you ask me these questions at five o’clock?”

    It brings back memories. Uh J.J. it wasn’t just the Pres. who convinced Congress it was the Veep, the SecDef, Condi, Wolfie, et al and the media who were totally cheerleading for this war.


  59. j.j. says:

    Buzzbomb,

    yeah, especially when Kennedy speaks on the Senate floor drunk and can’t say Barrack Obama’s name and called Obama Osama….hahaha!!

    or maybe when he was slurring his speech and telling his friend he let drown that he was too much of a coward to help her…..maybe then he was very articulate.

    I’ll give you that one, but include diebold in the mix. Both gore and kerry should have had leads that couldn’t be stolen, but they ran terrible campaigns. but, things will be different in 08, assuming bush doesn’t declare martial law.


  67. Bluedog49 says:

    jj’s angry. His position is that if we can allow a House committee chairman to maintain his position after demonstrating lack of knowledge about Muslims, then we should have no problem with an incompetent president. Very strong argument, JJ. Congratulations!


  68. Robert says:

    JJ What predictions did you make for November 2006? Chirp Chirp Creek Creek.

    You Bush Republicans will be the destructions of the GOP in 2008. A once great political party laid waste by Bush, Cheney, Karl Rove, and a sycophantic GOP congress 2000-2006.


  69. j.j. says:

    buzzbomb,

    if Kerry is so much smarter than Bush, how is it that he believed Bush and voted for the Iraq War?

    I mean you consider Bush and idiot, right? you claim that Bush lied, right? so what does that make Kerry who believed the supposed lies of a supposed idiot? that makes Kerry a much bigger idiot because how can super and duper intelligent being like Kerry be fooled by a supposed mental midget like Bush, right?

    and how about Hillary Clinton, she also believe Bush’s supposed lie, right? and she voted for the Iraq War, so what does that make Hillary, the supposed genius who believed the lies of what you called a mental midget? hmmmmmm……

    you people are making this way too easy for me…. :)

Our foreign policy is so f%cked up that we are now throwing money at groups who want to kill americans. Talk about aidding and abeiting the enemy.

    so you are admitting that Nancy Pelosi put as a chairman and incompetent fool and you have zero problem with it because he is a Democrat, right?

    and no idiot, that is what you are claiming I said, I am just showing you that while you retards make fun of our President there are Democrats that are actually making idiots out of themselves and being put in positionf of power when they have zero clue to what is going on in the world. It is you, not I who claims Bush is incompetent, it is YOU the one that is saying that it is ok to keep and incompetent Democrat in power, not I.

    Is this boy trying to say that Robert is just as crazy as Bush?

    Bush Derangement syndrome would imply that Bush is bat sh!t crazy.

    Too bad our resident child troll isn’t smart enough to realize that what he perceives to be an attack is really a slam against his master.


  84. Bluedog49 says:

    jj, I can see that critical thinking isn’t your strong suit. Your latest lame argument is only valid if you agree with us that Bush lied about things. You’re actually chiding Kerry and Clinton for believing Bush’s lies and arguing that Bush isn’t as stupid as we think because he was able to pull one over on Kerry and Clinton.

    Dude, get your head on straight. You’re pissing all over yourself.

Remember, thinkprogress.org calls each and everyone of you liberals, useful idiots. they are laughing at all of you while they go to the bank.

    Bush didn’t steal the election. Rove did, with help from plants in Florida and Ohio. You know, the people that have now lost their jobs and been convicted.


  96. buzzbomb says:

    I think jj has mistaken TP for the democratic party fan club. Kerry is a spineless twit, but the point you keep avoiding is BUsh is hands down dumber and less articulate than any other pres. in history. Bush is the figure head, he himself is not concocting diabolical schemes, he’s too dumb. The PNAC, CHeney, and the Saudi’s are his true masters. Do you like your pres. walking hand in hand with the ruler of a country that gave us most of the 911 hijackers and OBL? What a true American.

    son, little one, you won one election in how many years? and you think you will win twice in a row? son, kid, I hear the same grap in 1994 and you lost, in 1996 and you lost, in 2000 and you lost, in 2002 and you lost in 2004 and you lost. NOw you win one election and you barely have control of both houses of Congress and you are claiming that you will win in 2008? you aren’t much of a historian or political scientist are you, eh?

    i will laugh at you when you are crying and full of hate when you are not controlling both the executive and the legislative branch in 2009, just wait and see son.

    jj, you seem enamored to the term “useful idiots.” You seem to think Lenin said these words. Can you give us a citation? Because I don’t think Lenin ever used the words, “useful idiots.” I think that’s an American right-wing myth. All you’re doing by using it is demonstrating that you are a mindless victim of right wing propaganda.

    Juanito,

    how are you my amigo? how are Los Tres Amigos?

    Lenin did call his left wing followers useful idiots, right? so what did he know that you don’t son?

    and I see that all of you Liberals are paranoid, always trying to claim that people that disagree with you are one and the same person.

    bunch of left wing nutjobs.

    you are funny, hijito.


  109. Bluedog49 says:

    jj: “you aren’t much of a historian or political scientist are you, eh?”

    Wow, this guy’s a hoot! JJ, Dems went from 32 seats down to 33 seats up in the House. This was the biggest turnaround in the House since 1933. Since you are such a history buff, maybe you can tell us all how many years after 1933 that the Dems controlled congress. (Hint: it’s longer than 2 years.)


  110. Knappy Headed Ho says:

    Ok J.j., Dems put thier dumb mexicans at the heads of commitees and you guys make yours the most powerful law enforcement officer in the country, who can’t even remember what color the toilet paper he wiped his as3 with yesterday was…whose the bigger fool?

    c’mon Pudgy_Boy, you need to give me a challenge.

    and the “world” didn’t believe it….So France, Germany and Russia who all had secret deals with Saddam Hussein didn’t believe bush? go figure, the corrupt french, germans and russians putting their own interests with Hussein over saving the lives of millions of Iraqis.

    Bush is such a mental midget that he won two Presidential elections against the supposed super, duper intelligent Democratic Party. he won election after election in Texas against the supposed super duper intelligent Democratic Party.

    he runs rings around the Democratic Party, being one of the only Presidents to keep his party majority in a mid-year election 2002 and in a new term election, 2004.

    Yeah, so much for Bush being an idiot.

    he is such an idiot that he ran political circles around the Dems when it came to appointing Supreme Court Justices, when it comes to pretty much anything.

    poor liberals, so full of hate and can’t stand the fact that they just can’t win.

  132. Bluedog49 says:

    Let’s do the math: Repubs have 21 Senators up for reelection in ‘08 and Dems have 9. At this point in his presidency, Bush has the lowest average poll ratings in history. By huge margins, Americans say they prefer where Dems stand on the various issues. And on top of that, every week brings a new indictment of a Republican lawmaker by a Republican-run Justice Department.

    To JJ, this all adds up to an arrogant certainty that Repubs will win big in the next election.


  133. Not Canadian says:

    GOPers are obviously even stupider than Shrub.

    As dispensing meds for psychiatric patients, I’ve grown quite knowledgeable in that area.
    His delusions of grandeur, and paranoia, are classic symptoms of schizophrenia. His typing skills and incomprehensible sentence structure indicates mania, definetly not obsessive/compulsive.
    (oh, because of his anger, he probably has had either poor or no relationships with women)
    I’d suggest a bi monthly dose of Risperdal const 37.5mg for the voices, Lithium 600mg for mania, Ativan 1mg for anxiety, Paxil for depression, and Viagra for his alone time


  141. Bluedog49 says:

    Michael, I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make regarding Debolt machines in Ohio. I think the recent AP story on the 2004 election says what we need to know:

    “By M.R. KROPKO
    Associated Press Writer

    CLEVELAND (AP) – Two election workers were convicted Wednesday of rigging a recount of the 2004 presidential election to avoid a more thorough review in Ohio’s most populous county.”


  142. Zwack says:

    Bludeog49… As JJ seems to be incapable of backing up his “useful idiots” quote you might be interested in the following…

    1) The Wikipedia entry for “useful idiot” states that he probably didn’t say it.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_idiot

    2) The following Google Answers post opn the very same subject…

    “I searched the Lenin and the Stalin archives on
    http://www.marx2mao.org, using useful and idiots as separate search
    terms, but was unable to find anything relevant. If either Lenin or
    Stalin did express this sentiment, it was probably in other words.”

    Why does Bush give these types of speeches?? He’s at a point now finally where the “cute dumb act” isn’t endearing anymore. It’s annoying. I’m not saying Bush is any kind of intellectual here, but he IS smarter (in his own corrupt little way) than he lets on. It’s like he’s not trying anymore.

    Zwack: “If either Lenin or

    Exactly. Kruschev did not say “We will bury you,” either. Our corporate media has a long history of making up quotes by communists and lazy-minded conservative pundits are not concerned with historical accuracy.

    Wow Old Bushies is a total embarrassment to our Country. I did not vote for this Idiot and he is not my President. The Supreme Court gave him the Presidency This guy has losted it.

  150. Bluedog49 says:

    Mary: “They need to be prosecuted for war crimes and put in prison.”

    What do you think that new 98,000 acre “ranch” in Paraquay is for? Hint: after meeting with Bush reps, the government of Paraquay passed a law saying people living within its borders would not be subject to World Court jurisdiction.

    Paraquay is Bush’s worst-case end-game.


  151. Robert says:

    Just to counter JJ “but but Bush beat Gore/Kerry” meme:

    1. He didn’t beat Gore in 2000.
    2. He BARELY beat Kerry in 2004. For a “wartime” President this was a pathetic – wartime President’s typically win landslide victories.

    To them, it is only important that they are the ones standing with their feet on the neck of America; they don’t care that their boy has ruined everything; they don’t care about the terrible state of the country; they don’t care that we are in a war we can’t escape; they don’t care about anything except that their boy “won.”

There’s a series of parts of the formula that are being considered. And when you couple that, those different cost drivers, affecting those — changing those with personal accounts, the idea is to get what has been promised more likely to be — or closer delivered to what has been promised. Does that make any sense to you? It’s kind of muddled. Look, there’s a series of things that cause the — like, for example, benefits are calculated based upon the increase of wages, as opposed to the increase of prices. Some have suggested that we calculate — the benefits will rise based upon inflation, as opposed to wage increases. There is a reform that would help solve the red if that were put into effect. In other words, how fast benefits grow, how fast the promised benefits grow, if those — if that growth is affected, it will help on the red.”

    do you think I care whether you believe me or not. I take it Lenin, a monster, is one of your gods, eh? that is why you are so worried that he called the left ignorant masses useful idiot, eh? child, son, I don’t have to prove anything to you. :) I take it Stalin, another monster, worst than Hitler is another one of your gods. How about Castro, and El Che, both your heros too? they loved killing women and children. No wonder liberals hold these monsters as heros.

    hey by the way, seen the approval rating of our current congress, not much higher than that of the President, oh, oh!

  174. OutSourced says:

    Missing from Mr. Bush’s poorly phrased self-description – that he’s the Decider – is that he needn’t do anything else.

    He needn’t understand what he’s deciding: What’s at issue, what will it cost, who will it benefit or harm and why, what would change or stay the same. In short, he ignores the costs, benefits and risks. The things that any good CEO would want to know before exercising his or her authority as Decision Maker in Chief.

    To paper over his inadequacies, Mr. Bush doesn’t just use a ruler that labels six centimeters as six inches. He redefines the role of CEO as Button Pusher in Chief. It’s only the hired help that needs to know how things work. For Mr. Gonzales, imitation is truly the sincerest form of flattery.


  175. michael says:

    Spudge_Boy, Bluedog49, and now Marie:

    You have yet to point to any fact that would have prevented Diebold from “stealing” the 2006 election — you think an investigation or a couple minor convictions were enough to make the GOP “lay low”? Wouldn’t a more rational explanation be two words: “Mark Foley”?


  176. Bluedog49 says:

    jj: “do you think I care whether you believe me or not”

    The issue is not whether or not I believe you. The issue is whether or not you know what you’re talking about. You claim Lenin used the term “useful idiots.” It seems to be a central thesis in your thoughtful posts today. My claim is that you don’t know what you’re talking about and that Lenin never said that. Whether or not I like Lenin or Stalin or any other boogieman you can dream up is irrelevant.

  185. Bluedog49 says:

    jj: “Communism is left wing ideology, Liberal ideology, taken to the extreme.”

    The Father of our Country:

    “As mankind becomes more liberal they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protection of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations in examples of justice and liberality.”

    – George Washington, Letter to the Roman Catholics, March 15, 1790

    Communism is an economic system. Liberalism is a political and social philosophy. I know that to some this is a tough distinction, but there it is.


  186. Bluedog49 says:

    OK, JJ, I’m going to take your post as an admission that you cannot find a citation to prove that Lenin used the term “useful idiots.”

    When you used to post under the moniker MoonBatPatrol, I confronted you on your homophobia.
    It was the thread regarding a christian who felt that homosexuality could be prevented by showering with your father at a young age.
    I asked if you showered and compared with your daddy. You took total offense, and started numerous moronic posts that eventually led to you wishing you could tie up and pistol whip all gays.
    I called you on that, and you disappeared!
    but now you’re back, and I will continue to call you on this!
    So j.j., does your delusions still include pistol whipping tied up homosexuals?


  189. j.j. says:

    Bluedog49,

    sorry, Washington was speaking about liberal with a small “l”, I am talking Liberal with a capital L, if you don’t know the difference please do yourself a favor and go play with the children in the sandbox, ok?

    Communism is both a political and economic system. Now you are really showing your lack of education, please just do yourself a favor and shut up and learn from me.

    hey if it helps you to sleep better and night to believe that I can’t prove Lenin’s quote, son, by all means believe it. I am not here to proof anything, I am here to educated the communist and liberal ignorant masses like you. :)

    jj

    I don’t need to ask anyone. The only one that is stupid is you. You have alot of hate. You have your opinion and I have mine. What makes you right just becuse you want to college. That does not make you smarter than anyone else. The only one that is a child is you. GROW-UP!!!!!

    GOOD-BY


  192. j.j. says:

    DRxJ,

    here we go, left wing wacked out paranoia.

    sorry kid, you must have mee confused with your mirror image.

    try again paranoid fool.


  193. Larry from C says:

    I guess when you get to post #187 the conversation is bound to deteriorate to “pistol whipping tied up homosexuals?”.

    And I thought my quotes from George Bush were funny!


  194. hellinabucket says:

    Damn, I asked this little fungi jj a question back on 130. I see that he’s had time to attack but couldn’t answer if the Decider made the decision to increase the troops tour of duty a day after he said he wouldn’t.

    So easy for jj to throw digital crap out but can’t explain the President’s flip and flop. Talk tough but stretch our military passed the breaking point.

    Answer it jj.


  195. Gregor Samsa says:

    ‘President-elect Bush.’ I said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘What color rug do you want in the Oval Office?’

    Ah… the stress, the pressure, the constant ebb and flow of the many important decisions that the president of the most militarily powerful nation on the planet has to face on a daily basis.

    Now let’s review a George Bush presidential highlight:

    “I would say the best moment of all [since becoming president] was when I caught a 7.5 pound perch in my lake.”

    I am so fortunate I don’t have such a high-pressure job….

    Somebody ask Jeff Gannon if he believes this story. But please have a video camera to record his response.

    HEY Justa Jerkoff – We know the aversion you Republicans have to blowjobs so what homosexual act do you think Bush engages in?


  198. j.j. says:

    kickthebucket fool,

    I’ll answer question the day that Liberal fools like you answer questions from conservative fools like me. Until then….well you know.

    answer these questions and I’ll answer yours, deal little one?

    why are you so stupid, why? why are liberals so uneducated, so insignificant, so hateful, so ill-informed? why? why do Liberals hate Iraqis, but love peole from Darfur?

    why do you love the Democratic Party when it is full of corrupt, hate America, only care about themselves politicians?

    answer these and all other questions I ask you and I will answer you question.

    deal my youngen?

    who cares if he did this or not….incredible that you attack Bush by using something that you claim to embrace.

    Who cares!!!!!

    you can’t be tis dumb my communist friend who wishes to kill more people than Stalin and Castro did.


  200. Not Canadian says:

    I prefer he call himself the “dumbinator“.

    It’s what he is.

    It’s what he does.

    It represents us as a nation, and for that we should all be very, very ashamed.

    BAHAHA, what st*pid b*llsh*t from the little nazi t*rd!!!

    If it were any Democrat, you’d call for a national investigation on this! You whiny cowardly little professional victim wingnuts are just so precious! St*pid, dangerous, murderous and hateful – but precious to someone – probably your mom if you haven’t killed her yet…


  202. hellinabucket says:

    That’s about what I expected from someone who supports Bush. Can’t defend him but if jj’s always attacking then he could try to change the subject. Too bad Bush’s record will stick to him. The Decider didn’t know that the troop tours of duty were going to be changed. Or did he? Either way he flipped and flopped.

    jj’s questions remind me of the old “when did you stop beating your wife” question.

    Put down a real question jj and it will be answered.

    BAHAHAHAHAAHAHA, wow, more self criticism… When you learn proper grammar and spelling michael/nully, you won’t look so funny, calling other st*pid!

    why do you love the Democratic Party when it is full of corrupt, hate America, only care about themselves politicians? Comment by j.j. — April 20, 2007 @ 2:44 pm

    BAHAHAHA, more self criticism! Devoid of all reality on the number of convictions and investigations into the GOP corruption and as for hatred of America, you don’t need a party j.j, you clearly have enough hate on your own for the *liberal* values of the US – just like Osama does.

    answer these and all other questions I ask you and I will answer you question. deal my youngen? Comment by j.j. — April 20, 2007 @ 2:44 pm

    You’re too st*pid to either ask or answer a question of relevance nully – like most of your ignorant, uneducated jake*ss republican friends… The party of st*pid, ignorant and ret*rded – is definitely your GOP!

    Comment by ValiantVenusGrewFromUranus

    ROFLMAO! I really love your posts, but they’re even better when humor is injected!!!


  205. hellinabucket says:

    Another question. Did the decider decide to have over 100,000 hired mercenaries currently active in Iraq along with our 145,000? Some of those hired guns are from Death squads in Chile.

    Does the decider know the actual size of the forces in Iraq is over 240,000 and not the 145,000 that is touted?

    Do try and answer the question. Or continue to spittle on yourself


  206. catherineD says:

    You know what would be brilliant?

    Taking clips of Bush and mashing them with that Peter Sellars movie about the idiot….


  207. Shane says:

    Who cares!!!!!

    Comment by j.j. — April 20, 2007 @ 2:45 pm

    Wow – how much money did you Republicans waste on that show trial about Clinton’s blow job from a woman and you you don’t care about Bush’s homosexual acts?

    You neocons are so complex – or is it that you have so many complexes.


  208. hellinabucket says:

    jj cares very much about that homosexual act. Was it an act or was it something much, much more.

    Fox would be all over this if it were a Democratic president

    When are you going to answer a real question jj? Stand up for your party and write something that shows a spine instead of fangs.

    You forgot the villain of He-Man. This post is beyond delusional.

    all you need to know, Bluedgo49, is that I know a lot more about what i am talking about than 99.9% of the liberal wackos that post here and yes, this includes you.

    I don’t need to prove it to you. all you need to do is shut up and learn from me. hahahahahahaha!!!!!

    OWNED


  210. Innocent Bystander says:

    jj is cutting edge Republican intelligence. He’s the future of their Party. He may think he’s performing some kind of service for Dimson here, but what he’s really doing is embarrasing anyone who might be inclined to support Republicans.

    Keep sharing your thoughts with us jj…..you are having an impact. Just not the way you think.


  211. buzzbomb says:

    jj cannnot defend the horrid conduct of his boy king so he lashes out in different directions to attempt to change the subject. Lenin, communism, john kerry, michael moore, what does any of that have to do with Bush? You know, the topic of the thread. Bush is the worst president in the history of our country, support for him equals treason.


  212. Kane says:

    In recent speeches, Bush has made of habit of reminding people that he and Laura put a new rug in the Oval Office. It’s a minor detail, but a subtle reminder to the base as to why the rug needed to be replaced. My guess is that Bush is laying the groundwork for republicans just in case Hillary wins the democratic nomination.


  213. hellinabucket says:

    211. And Raymond (Rain Man) reminded everybody on how much he liked Kmart. Is Bush mentally disturbed or just dumb? You decide.

    I like using those Fox style questions.


  214. Bluedog49 says:

    jj also “knows” Lenin referred to American liberals as “useful idiots,” but for the life of him, he can’t find the citation.


  215. katy says:

    just getting here…

    randi is talking about a town hall speech he gave at tip city ohio – this event? – that showed dubya to be so whacked out, she said it would scare you… she said the part about a chicken (i think?) must have been scrubbed because she couldn’t find it any more…

    it should be on cnn so that we could see how drugged up he is…
    i’ve seen it for weeks now, worse than ever…


  216. BucketsofBloodforBucketsofOil says:

    I make a lot of big ones and I make a lot of little ones…

    Why does Bush feel the need to share his scatological life with his audience?

    Is fecal matter really all that important? Inquiring minds want to know.

    Now that he’s made the decision to not be the Decider anymore, who will be deciding what he decides next?


  219. Ozymandias says:

    The president totally loses his shit, evolves into a babbling idiot ranting about chicken-plucking factories and rugs, and The Dick takes over. That’s next. Or before?


  220. Ozymandias says:

    randi just mentioned that the WH pulled the video but it is on abcnews or somewhere else- YouTube? Anyone here can find it?

    really… looking at that picture is kinda spooky…

    but better than i expected when i heard he would be speaking
    at a high school… at least those folks are “of age”…
    their excuses are way behind them…


  223. buzzbomb says:

    Heres the CNN version, not sure if its any different than the abc, its really painful to watch.

    Thanks s for the disturbing video


  224. Devil's Advocate says:

    I am relieved that he made the right decision about the rug!

    Bush is clearly one sandwich short of a picnic. And he really is a sociopath. No feelings, no compassion, no understanding.

    At a time when violence is surging in Baghdad, and an unprecedented number of US soldiers have died in April, Bush is talking about his rug?

    The guy belongs in a mental institution for the criminally insane.


  225. big papa says:

    …That’s got to be the LARGEST DAMNED Family portrait in American history…


  226. big papa says:

    Isn’t it telling that…

    …Bushiva is now having his propaganda sessions…

    …in high school gyms…

    …vs arenas and stadiums?


  227. Kilo says:

    And the phone rang, and the head usher at the White House said, “President-elect Bush.” I said, “Yes.” He said, “What color rug do you want in the Oval Office?” (Laughter.) I said, this is going to be a decision-making experience. (Laughter.)

    Here’s the same exchange with the context added back in that shows it’s a joke.
    225 comments analysing this. Wow.


  228. Max says:

    When is he going to come out and tell the people the Truth for once, That this job was well over His head. It takes some just a little smart then him to run the county. Maybe a chimp.

  230. alphaomega says:

    HE’S NOT THE DECIDER he takes orders from a shadowy element behind the scenes.Did you ever get a job that you thought would be great then come to find out that job is not so glorious because there are all these little things you didnt know about.This is the Equivalent of the presidency. JFK discovered this element and tried to refuse them seeking to cut the country off from this abomiNATION.We have all heard what happened to him! UP WITH GOD, DOWN WITH ALL WHO OPPOSE.


  231. D. Cheney says:

    Come on now – he’s doing the best he can. And really, when you think about it, for a former alcoholic and coke addict, he’s done pretty good. We were going to put Kieth Richards in this job, but his schedule didn’t allow it, plus he sometimes walks right up to potted ferns and starts a conversation.


  232. Allan Smith McKensey says:

    Fuck Bush, his administration and all his cover-up, evil bastard friends.


  233. shawntos says:

    “I’m a decision” well at least Letterman will have something to use in his Great Presidential Speeches segment. I have never in my life seen someone so powerful be so unable to express an idea. Can you imagine what that looks like to the international community? They think he is an idiot but what it worse is when he talks like that it sounds like he is trying to explain himself to a confused 7 year old. He makes us look like rubes.


  234. arse says:

    I’m sorry, (well, really I’m not), but I refuse to watch this brain-dead box of rocks. I also refuse to watch Dic*less Cheney, Mann Coulter, Rush Limpdic* Fox News or any of the mainstays of the neocon right. *UCK THEM. Honestly, I cannot stomach these sick pieces of excrement spewing their poison nonsense. That brings to mind the bit about the NRA bu$h murmured when he gave his “speech” at VA Tech. What an unbelieveable moron and puppet slave this little monkey-bi*ch is. The repubs should just yank him and be done with it for crying out loud, but they would rather cut off their own noses than admit that bu$h is the perfect example of the Peter Principle at work, the retards…


  239. nikolai says:

    I couldn’t help it, I had to watch… He looked like a chicken bobbing it’s head when he said, “decision maker.” Decison maker, bwaaaaaak- bwaak- bwaak- bwaak- bwaak!!! It would be befitting for bu$h to be reincarnated as a chicken, wouldn’t it?!


  240. Battlecruiser says:

    Hahaha, Bush doesn’t know how to count.

    From the speech.
    “I believe it’s in the interest of the United States to have a comprehensive immigration plan that meets certain objectives: one, helps us better secure our border; two, recognizes that people are doing work here that Americans are not doing; three, that recognizes that we are a nation of immigrants, and we ought to uphold that tradition in a way that honors the rule of law; four, that it’s in the interest of the country that people who are here be assimilated in a way that — with our traditions and history. In other words, those who eventually become citizens be assimilated. In other words, one of the great things about America is we’ve been able to assimilate people from different backgrounds and different countries. I suspect some of your relatives might be the kind of people I’m talking about.

    Four, that we do not grant amnesty. I am very worried about automatic citizenship being granted to people who have been here illegally. I think that undermines rule of law — (applause) — I think it undermines the rule of law, I also think it would create a condition, or send the signal that it’s okay for another X-millions of people to come.

    Five, you can’t kick people out. You may think you can kick people out, but you can’t. It’s not going to work. It’s impractical to think that you can find 10 million people who have been here for a long period of time and boot them out of the country.

    Six, if you hire somebody who is an illegal alien, you ought to be held to account. Now, those are the — (applause) — wait a minute. Those are the principles. And we’re working in Congress. The first step was to make it clear to the American people that we would change our border policy. This is a subject I’m real familiar with. As you might recall, I was the governor of the great state of Texas, and we’ve been dealing with — (applause) — there you go. Always one in every crowd. (Laughter.)

  242. Equinox says:

    The rug was the best decision he has made while in office. Everything else has turned into a disaster.


  243. E R Gabriel says:

    Bush is such an embarrassment in so many ways. The real problem is not his mangling of the English language, it is his mangling of the world political situation which has resulted in the unnecessary death of thousands, American and Iraqi, a civil war in Iraq, the strengthening of Muslim extremists’ anti-West attitudes, and the diminution of the perception of the U.S. by the rest of the world.
