What are your opinions on the chimps best ever Bushisms - I honestly wish a communist would kill him and then burn his body - but hey thats my opinion. Here's a few:

"I think war is a dangerous place." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., May 7, 2003

"See, one of the interesting things in the Oval Office — I love to bring people into the Oval Office — right around the corner from here — and say, this is where I office, but I want you to know the office is always bigger than the person." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Jan. 29, 2004

"One year ago today, the time for excuse-making has come to an end." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Jan. 8, 2003

"When Iraq is liberated, you will be treated, tried and persecuted as a war criminal." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Jan. 22, 2003


lol, anyone know where I can see how this line was used?

oh nevermind... this isnt actually a bushism, it's taken out of context big time:

To any Iraqi soldier who chooses to follow orders to use weapons of mass destruction: "My advice is that you don't follow that order because if you choose to do so, when Iraq is liberated, you will be treated, tried and persecuted as a war criminal."

I don't think thats right. We really don't need to make stuff up because there is plenty of real material we can use. Although I am not blaming you, I'm sure you got it from a Bushism site. - I just wanted to keep it real yo.

Correct, I'm a rightist. However, I don't think Bush is. He's an enormous spending, pro-big government, internationalistic, anti-states' rights, anti-constitution moron. However, I'll say one thing about Bush: he's occasionally good for a laugh or two. :D

You know there is some Military General in the US Army who thinks George Bush was put into office by God (because he didn't get a majority vote) and that we need a Crusade against Islam.
Please tell me that this man is currently safely ensconced in a padded cell somewhere with an adequate supply of anti-psychotic drugs. :eek:

Last I heard he was still working for the US Military. But that was 3 months or so ago.

Oh,wonderful. Glad to see that the US military is in such capable hands. Carry on.

Incidentally, does anyone know how that space-elevator is coming along?

I really, really can't remember what happened to him though.

I just remember an interview where he goes:

"Look, this man (George Bush) didn't get the majority vote - so how did he get in? It was an act of God, God put him there."

According to Terry Pratchett, if we don't develop one within the next few centuries, we will all be wiped out by a giant meteorite. Of course, I always take what Mr Pratchett says as the gospel truth, including the bit about the Earth being some sort of bizarre magical experiment created by a group of bored wizards.

Huh?

What do you mean it's only a story? :confused:

Just as strongly, Bush and Boykin believe that they are absolutely good. Bush has suggested that he believes he was appointed by God to become the President of the United States, and Boykin has agreed with this statement. Boykin also believes that God made him a top general in the United States military in order to enable him to wage a holy war against Islam, stating, "We in the Army of God, in the House of God, the Kingdom of God have been raised for such a time as this."

I'm a high school Jr. and I don't think Bush even showed up for English class. As Vice-President of my class, I run the school better than Bush running the country. At least I can balance a budget. Oh, here's my favorite:

I might've skimmed over it in this link, my apologies, but
I read in a sports brief that Bush has publicly commented that his gross ineptitude regarding English language and grammar is a "strategy".
His environment, for context, had something to do with sports ...
Dunno how long after the "strategy" he had concerning the Rangers sellout and subsequent high-billing campaign contributor title this came along ....
For thought and apprehension, i guess.

On His Tax Break Plan Bush said that
"if most of the breaks go to wealthy people it's because
'most of the people who pay taxes are wealthy."

"I wish I could turn to the soldiers on that ship,"
Mr. Bush said, erroneously referring to the sailors
on an aircraft carrier in the backdrop, "and I wish
they could hear me: stay in the military, there's a
new commander in chief coming."

I had a book with Bushism, tra,slated from English, published in 2001. a friend is loughing with it for the moment. i saw a lot of Bushisms here that were in it.

I remember this when he was campaigning:

"Prisoners at Abou Gleef...."

"Crimes in Ado Ghiif....."

"Soldiers at Abou Jissif....."


"Hussein was a madman, and now all the crimes, bad-tings, and his whole family of rappers...."
