		<description>&quot;This is what inbreeding brings us, folks. When your â€œleadershipâ€ derives in its entirety from less than one percent of the gene pool &quot; 

From comment 94 by Iain

I believe that Iain is seriously right.  The very rich and old money rich breed only within their class.  This small group is too limited to produce anything but rubbish.  Weaknesses are magnified and strengths distorted.

Think of the gene pool that produced Richard Mellon-Scaife, the drunken half-wit who actually thought that Goldwater would win in &#039;64 in a landslide.</description>

		<description>&quot;â€œDo they want to bring back Saddam Hussein, these critics?â€ 

That kind of asinine statement destroys any possibility for rational discussion of public policy.  This is the type of statement that Republicans have thrived upon for the last 3 decades and part of the reason why stupid, catastrphic public policy is the norm rather than the exception.</description>

		<description>Saddam was a monster, but his most monstrous deeds occurred in the late 80s. If we really think it&#039;s our job to rid the world of monsters, why wait 15 years?

It&#039;s endemic... failure to take responsibility, blame the other guy.
We Americans stood there and watch GWB destroy the principles on which America stands.  I have seen the enemy and he is us.</description>

		<description>41 has, it seems, a wonderful reputation here amongst the powerful and the media. The all knowing father. Hero of WWII. President who &quot;did it right&quot; in Iraq, and who was threatened with death (and who we &quot;rightly&quot; must avenge). Yet the dirty side of his ledger is huge. CIA chief to pardoner of the Iran Contra criminals and a lot in between.

Should we believe, or even pay attention to, anything this terrible man says? And what would we expect his children to be? After all, he set their (personal) example and groomed them after his image. All with the help of that paragon of &quot;goodness,&quot; his wife. (And as it is generally understood, mother sets the childs course in life, while father shows him how to do it.)

From &quot;Bush on the Couch&quot; by psychiatrist Justin Frank:

&lt;em&gt;&quot;Referred to by her children as &quot;The Enforcer,&quot; Barbara Bush has by her own admission always been the family disciplinarian. She was, from most accounts, a cold taskmaster, and she spanked the children readily. &lt;strong&gt;Called &quot;the one who instills fear&quot; by a close family friend,&lt;/strong&gt; she would boldly break up fights between her sons, &quot;bust them up and slap them around,&quot; according to a brother-in-law.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

&quot;the one who instills fear&quot;! And &quot;W&quot; learned his lesson well. Instilling fear and punishing any one who doesn&#039;t agree with his &quot;god driven mission&quot; in life. Yup, par for the course.

Keep flappin&#039; your gums, 41, you useless failure of a father. It won&#039;t help.</description>

&lt;em&gt;All the people want is an apology from the left for undermining the efforts of the United States. We are a forgiving people.&lt;/em&gt;

What fantasy world are you living in? You, of the 24%ers. This post of yours is so far outside the bounds of reality it boggles the mind! An apology??? You are as insane as your megalomaniac leader, &quot;W&quot;.

&lt;em&gt;Donâ€™t confuse kindness with weakness, however.&lt;/em&gt;

What ever are you babbling about? Kindness??? First you have to be sane to know what kindness means. Weakness??? You aren&#039;t weak! You are crazy. Go back to LG Footfungus and cavort with your kind.</description>

		<description>Y&#039;all know old 41 is getting an aircraft carrier named after him right?  I had been racking my brain trying to figure out how the hell he deserved it.  Then I remembered whose administration was doing the naming.  Oh yeah!!! Had to put myself in the &quot;DUH!&quot; column for the duration.

This is what inbreeding brings us, folks.  When your &quot;leadership&quot; derives in its entirety from less than one percent of the gene pool (&lt;strong&gt;the richest but probably the  most worthless one percent in terms of anything but bucks&lt;/strong&gt;), GW is a perfect example of what you&#039;re gonna get in place of leaders.</description>

		<description>Tender: &quot;Theyâ€™d be smart to run to South America and go into hiding like the Nazi-cowards did after World War II.&quot;

Well, he did recently purchase a 100,000 acre ranch in northwest Paraguay and the government of Paraguay did recently enact a law saying people within its borders were not subject to rulings by the World Court - just a coincidence I&#039;m sure, but that ranch may represent Bush&#039;s worst-case end-game.</description>

		<description>&gt;Saddam has another 10 years of violating U.N. decrees and ignoring &gt;world opinion under his belt. 

So did Israel. So what? Lets face it, all that changed it saddam decided to invade one tiny country we didnt tell him to. Thats it. The only WMD he had was the stuff we gave him to use on other people. THe irony of that escapes bufoons like you. The fact dick cheney very accuratelly predicted what would happen if you invaded iraq over 10 years ago, then seemed to forget everything he said also escapes you to. Let me guess, 9-11 changed everything, including the laws of physics and human psychology?

		<description>#84-RCJR:  And we&#039;ve only seen the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the damage Bush has done to the country.  I don&#039;t believe there&#039;s Secret Service enough to protect the Bush clan when it all comes out.  They&#039;d be smart to run to South America and go into hiding like the Nazi-cowards did after World War II.</description>

		<description>Tender chicken: &quot;This is the Bush-clanâ€™s Waterloo. And itâ€™s about time.&quot;

W has not only ruined a family political dynasty, but an entire political movement. He&#039;s failed at everything he has ever done except for getting elected to public office. He couldn&#039;t even get into prep school without a legacy. He couldn&#039;t even get into U of Texas Law School despite a Senator for a Grand Dad and a Congressman for a father. He ran several businesses into the ground despite incredible funding. He distinguished himself as a baseball owner by making one of the worst player trades in the last 20 years. He couldn&#039;t even hold on to a plum position on the Carlile Group&#039;s corporate board. Reagan couldn&#039;t stand him. He&#039;s broken everything he&#039;s ever touched.</description>
