Citizen,
"If we decide things based on political association we don't have to think for ourselves, which hurts and is no fun at all."
I'm still giggling over this. THANKS! That was a wonderful jolt of humour in an otherwise busy, but at the same time strangely boring, day.

Why is no one reacting to George Bush calling our soldiers cowards?
A direct quote from his speech yesterday:
"It's hard to plan and plot attacks against America if you're on the run, and that's exactly what our brave professionals are doing."
OUR BRAVE PROFESSIONALS ARE ON THE RUN?!
Doesn't sound very presidential to me.

You'll find it about halfway down... a little more than that.

"Enter Steve Schmidt, Matt Dowd and several other veterans of the Bush-Cheney reelection race. Focused on winning each news cycle, that campaign team rebuilt Schwarzenegger's image day by day."
Now this is an interesting tactic. Kerry should take a lesson. It's not enough to apologize, no matter how sincerely meant or well spoken. B/c that's the last thing people will remember. "At the end of the day" - literally - you have to do something else. And if you have nothing postive then go negative - lie, attack, whatever it takes. THAT'S what you want to be remembered for.

He means they have the enemy on the run. He's just doing it in Bush speak. You must know what he is saying.

AURaptor, you're actually citing Hillary Clinton approvingly?
Somewhere, a Republican angel just lost its wings.

Come on, what's the point in looking at a situation based on merit rather than political association? If we decide things based on political association we don't have to think for ourselves, which hurts and is no fun at all.
Hah!

Oh yes I do know what Bush is saying. I'm taking him word for word from what his statement said, and he's calling the troops cowards. Bush is clearly saying here that our brave professionals are on the run.
I wonder how the troops in Iraq would feel knowing THAT? The Commander-in-Chief that sent them over there thinks that they're on the run... WOW! That's respect for ya!

Quote:Wait- how can he say that? That's ridiculous, the reports I hear have some of our troops getting picked off here and there individually, but they're by no means 'on the run' from anybody!

Is Bush intentionally trying to make America feel bad (or worse) for our troops to gain some sort of political support?
What a cad!
