Bush Declares That Free Iraq Is Within Reach
Don't forget that this is the man who declared "Mission accomplished" a few years ago. He's also the guy who made Donald Rumsfeld the Secretary of Defense and picked Alberto Gonzalez to be Attorney General. He's the guy who fell asleep through Hurricane Katrina, froze up reading My Pet Goat on September 11, declared we would send people to Mars, refers to something called "The Internets", and claims his favorite movie of all time is Black Hawk Down.
With all due respect to the Office of the President, if a free Iraq is, in fact, within reach, and I doubt that it is, I'm gonna need to hear it from someone with a lot more credibility than President George W. Bush.
But you gotta hand it to him for those huge balls he must have, pulling the Vietnam card. Here's a guy who most people deep down inside believe did whatever he could to dodge the Vietnam War. I'll tell you what, the president is a lot of things, but he's also a man with huge balls. Nice guy, dumb as a stump, huge balls.
He said “a free Iraq” is within reach and warned that if Americans succumbed to “the allure of retreat,” they would witness death and suffering of the sort not seen since the Vietnam War.
OK, fair enough. Why did we go to war in Iraq, Mr. President? Remember those WMDs? Why should we listen to or trust the judgment of this man?
I don't think we can. I don't think it's prudent to turn to President George W. Bush for insight into or leadership on the Iraq War anymore. I think we should completely skip him and look toward other people for leadership on the war. Seriously, I think we have to face facts. The future of Iraq is too important to trust to someone as incompetent as this president, and I'm not just playing around here. I'm being completely serious.
Forget the political grandstanding, the hyperbole, the playing off of people's emotions over Vietnam and bullsh*t terms like cutting and running and look at the facts. We don't have a real president right now. What we have is a doofus in the White House, and each day we entrust this country's security to this guy is yet another day we're tempting fate.
He can't even make up his mind either. He's the least decisive person I've ever seen. It took him four years to build up the courage to fire Donald Rumsfeld, and how many generals has he gone through already? How many different people have been in charge in Iraq? Why would any intelligent human being trust a word that comes out of George Bush's mouth? Wait -- I should rephrase that. Why should any intelligent human being believe that George Bush has any clue what he's talking about? I don't know if he lies or if it's just stupidity or arrogance, but does it matter which one it is?
But oh well, right? This Congress obviously isn't going to do anything about it. Yup... gotta love it!
