He talks like a really deranged old geezer...

"Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns -- the ones we don't know we don't know."

"I believe what I said yesterday. I don't know what I said, but I know what I think, and, well, I assume it's what I said."

WHAT???

Bush poised to set vacationing record

WACO, Texas -- President Bush is getting the kind of break most Americans can only dream of -- 33 days away from the office, loaded with vacation time.

The president departed yesterday for his longest stretch away from the White House, arriving at his Crawford ranch in the evening for five weeks of clearing brush, visiting with family & friends. By historical standards, it is the longest presidential retreat in at least 36 years.

The August getaway is Bush's 49th trip to his cherished ranch since taking office and the 319th day that Bush has spent, entirely or partially, in Crawford -- nearly 20 percent of his presidency to date, according to Mark Knoller, a CBS Radio reporter known for keeping better records of the president's travel than the White House itself. Weekends at Camp David or at his parents' compound in Maine, bump up the proportion of Bush's time away from Washington even further.

It's pretty obvious that nuclear weapons are incredibly powerful. Also, it is a fairly well known fact that during the Cold War, Russia and America had enough nuclear warheads to destroy the world a number of times over. China is coming up, and countries like Pakistan, Iran, and North Korea are all up and coming members of the nuclear club. Where do you see this going? Will it finally sink in that we are standing on a razor's edge? Or will people (governments) hold on to their nuclear weapons until somebody sets one off? and what then?

From AP News: Two of the Pentagon's most senior generals conceded to Congress on Thursday that the surge in sectarian violence in Baghdad in recent weeks means Iraq may be descending into civil war.

"Iraq could move toward civil war" if the violence is not contained, Gen. John Abizaid, the top U.S. commander in the Middle East, told the Senate Armed Services Committee.

"I believe that the sectarian violence is probably as bad as I have seen it," he said.

A confidential report from Britain's outgoing ambassador to Iraq warned the country is sliding toward civil war and is likely to divide eventually along ethnic lines.

William Patey, who left his diplomatic post in Baghdad last week, predicted in the document that the situation in Iraq could remain volatile for the next decade. "Even the lowered expectation of President Bush for Iraq - a government that can sustain itself, defend itself and govern itself and is an ally in the war on terror - must remain in doubt."

Isn't this concept, especially in the media, being taken to ridiculous extremes? And whites are especially targeted. These days we are becoming afraid of openly being proud of who we are, and what we are. It seems we cannot say we are heterosexual, conservative, liberal or Christian without some crazy group accusing us of being anti-gay,
anti-semite, anti-black or anti-something. We don't scream blue bloody murder if blacks, gays and non-Christian religious groups have their clubs or organisations, but all hell breaks loose if we want to do it ourselves.
I think our right to state our opinions and being what we are, is being taken away from us, and we are allowing it to happen.
I am white, male, Christian and moderate, and the rest of you can go suck eggs!

Has anyone ever heard a Bush supporter that made sense?

Have you ever met an intelligent Bush supporter? Y'know, someone who doesn't link Sadaam to fake WMD's or yell Git'r'done!

I haven't. Their logic is extremely childish.

I find this disturbing because Bush is the traitor and I'm far from being a liberal. There's conservative, then there's neo-con. I'm a conservative and a Christian.

The sad part is, Bush is hardly a conservative, much less a Christian.

Look at Pat Robertson (the evangelical leader), he just pulled his head out of the sand! There have been signs all over the world for more than two years now, not to mention that most of the worlds major scientists are letting the cat out of the bag after being quieted by the Bush administration. If most of the general population can understand the environmental crisis, then why can't some of these people? Is it politics, economics, or just plain biased ignorance?

I'm turing 18 in March and I'm scared because therre's a war going on in Iraq and I'm afraid I'll get drafted, since I'll be old enough.
I don't want to go to Iraq. I know I won't come home alive if I do. Please give me info. God, I hope the war ends soon. George Bush really isn't making things get better. Instead, he's making things worse.

Arnold Schwartzenegger is a clown. This guy shouldn't be our Governor. He should be acting in movies.

We've got weak politicians. It makes our country look weak.
