I actually disagree with the man most times, but I thought the exercise thing was pretty cool. Wouldn’t you know, not everyone thought so:

Ooooh, now I get it. The war in Iraq was just an exercise, a good excuse to get the troops out of the house. To keep the cash flow running and the morale for war up. Tough luck, Dubya, too much exercise can kill ya.

Read between the lines, folks. What Bush is REALLY saying is, I want everyone to be fit when they are drafted, that way, they will be ready for war in Iran.

At least who ever posted this didn’t add in the traditional satrical tone that accompanies these types of posts.

however, they’re certainly aware of the TP faithful coming in and telling bush to fuckoff for riding a bike around 30 mins of the day rather than mourning the death of a soldier.

the fact is, america has a horrible perspective on health and physical fitness. i want our leadership to take more of a stand on these types of issues.

what will become of the TP faithful when they no longer have the venerable GW to beat up on?

Re: Stephan’s list and “hating” Bush:

Every evil leader in history has probably had some redeeming feature: Hitler was a dog lover (that’s supposedly true), Stalin loved his mother (I made that up), Idi Amin saved a million trees in Ethiopia (also made up), Saddam preserved and protected Iraqi antiquities (true—though, thanks to Bremer and company, now all but undone), and Bush loves (and encourages others) to exercise. BFD!

Does that make these people any less evil? Of course not.

People don’t hate Bush because he’s intellectually challenged (and that’s being kind), vapid, disconnected from reality or even easily led by the nose (just ask any neocon). They hate him because he’s EVIL! What’s more, they not only hate him, they fear him (one follows the other). You never know what this idiot is going to come up with next, but you can always assume the worst.

Can’t TP find some evil stuff the President is doing. I mean, he is evil, right? He is advocating American’s to stay fit. I believe the posters here would find some way to object if President Bush advocated for everyone to vote.

Bush is Right. With his Energy and Middle East Policies in effect, Americans need to learn how to walk, jog, pedal and swim.

Heh. Itâ€™s funny how you liberals get upset even when he makes a neutral comment like this. You really hate this guy, donâ€™t you?
Comment by BottomBoy

I do yoga everyday and also usually take the stairs rather than elevator or escalator up to five and sometimes nine floort, so I have no problem with his message this time. However, hasn’t this administration been behind the deregulations that have allowed tainted food, including the poisonous pet food from China, on the markets?
As for hatred, aren’t you here to express your disdain for liberals?

If we weren’t working two jobs to afford to stay afloat, we’d have more time to “stay fit.”
It’s so sweet of the silver-spoon-born boy-king to admonish everyone to stay fit. The one who never had to work a day in his life.

Didn’t you know that the liberals are laying off Kissinger right now? He has said some things lately that are useful to you all. He’s not currently considered a target. Try and keep up. ;)

What, just because he started a war for made-up reasons, and he ended up killing more Americans than Osama bin Laden, and more Iraqis than Saddam Hussein, there’s no reason to hate this guy, is there?

But for some Reason, when it comes out of the mouth of
George W. Bush, i want to start drinking booze, smoke cigs, and hang out with Keith Richards.

Comment by kevkev â€” May 5, 2007 @ 1:46 pm

“Liberals … simply hate George W.Bush… In fact, I’m pretty sure that if, in his inauguration speech, President Bush had said, “We must unite to combat global warming,” liberals would have, from that moment on, referred to it as “so-called global warming.”

This is an important message. The obesity epidemic is creating a boom in type II diabetes in this country. Eat healthy and exercise. Right on, Mr. President.

Tell that to Cheney, Rove, Kissinger and all the other health conscious rethuglicans…
