Nice one, Bush. Dumb ass!

"President Bush offered up a new entry for his catalog of "Bushisms" on Thursday, declaring that his administration will "never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people."

Bush misspoke as he delivered a speech at the signing ceremony for a $417 billion defense spending bill.

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we," Bush said. "They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

No one in Bush's audience of military brass or Pentagon chiefs reacted.

The president was working his way toward a larger point. "We must never stop thinking about how best to defend our country. We must always be forward-thinking," he said.

White House spokesman Scott McClellan said Bush's misstatement "just shows even the most straightforward and plain-spoken people misspeak."

"But the American people know this president speaks with clarity and conviction, and the terrorists know by his actions he means it," McClellan said."

"Gott kann dich nicht vor mir beschuetzen, weil ich nicht boese bin."

Are you sure he mis-spoke and didn't just have a brief moment of honesty?

Maybe he watched "Liar Liar" and was inspired by Jim Carey's antics!

And then there was the time he vowed to foster Iraq's economic dependence....

Personally, I think calling Bush a dumb-ass is an insult to the dumbass community.

Moronic, murdering, war mongering, butt sucking puppet is more accurate.

A friend of mine is a journalist and had the chance to ride on George's bus back when he was running for President (my friend's a total way out liberal). He would observe on a daily basis, how in person, Bush was very sharp and clever and even funny a lot of the time, but when he was asked to make an official statement he'd immediately plunge into malapropisms and error. My friend's theory was that Bush was perfectly lucid and intelligent except when he was asked to lie. When he had to lie, it would never stick in his mind or hang together as a whole idea, so it just came out all garbled because it wasn't real to him. It was garbled in his head, so it came out garbled in his mouth. Some people just aren't very skillful liars. I can totally see his latest remark about harming the U.S. as a Freudian slip.

Bush's speaking is one of the most uncanny phenomena of the past four years. Even before 9/11 most people I knew could NOT bring themselves to listen to him for five minutes. There was something about the mere sound of his voice that was so disquieting that nearly everyone I knew at the time tried to tune him out. No one I knew was listening to his speeches. He creeped them out. His simple presence was appalling. Even after 9/11 when people had a vested interest in hearing what he was saying, people still "couldn't" listen to him. And it wasn't an intellectual thing either, "Oh, he lies all the time." No, it was a GUT thing, an aversion, a shudder. Anybody else have that experience?

Hey, hey, hey, don't be mean. We don't have to be mean, because, remember, no matter where you go, there you are.

What I can't Get is why do people think that Kerry is going to be different..or is he just the only other choice for a dumbass president.

Some people just aren't good public speakers. Put them in front of a large group of people, and they fold like a card table. Which is not to say he's not lying. I think maybe he just doesn't understand what the he's saying, be it half-truth or no-truth.

I don't, like, think Kerry is the greatest candidate in the world or anything, but at least he's done something with his life.

During the debates, Kerry should just do what Al Gore shoulda done: look over at Bush, and calmly say, "Look, you were an alcoholic until you were 40, and then your dad bought you a baseball team. Go away."

We4ll time for another rant. Well I'll try noto to. First off what has the man done right in his first term to even give anyone an understanding that he should get a second term. Second recently on the campain trail I thought I heard sound bites of him saying that if reelected he would do his best to create 100,000 new jobs.What?? Wasn't he suppose to do that last time. What is wrong with this country? If he did this good in a fast food industry he would be out of a job, hell in most bussiness' he would be out of a job. He has wholeheartedly been about making the rich richer, why is he 50/50 with Kerry? If only @ 9% of the country are rich where is all the other support coming from?
I have a few acquaintences that will vote for Bush because he is openly anti gay. One of them just isn't a smart guy the other is a pretty regular Jo. I understand that a lot of the religious folks vote republican for the anti-abortion thing. I have often wondered if they also want to get rid of all the firearms in the US and hell why not get rid of those pesky nukelear weapons. The bad things are out of the box quit trying to put them back in. Lets try something like educating people give them choices. There is a revolution coming. My grandfather saw it coming. I see it clear as day.
There are pretty much three types of people in this country. The rich that beleive they are the countries leaders born and bred above the comon rabble that want us to do their bidding. The willnots that won't work because its well to much work they think they need to get "whats theres" even if someone else bought and paid for it. social security and unemployment are their way to get by.
Then there's most of us. we work hard play hard and try to do whats right we defend this country with our lives. We were taught right and wrong as kids.
someday... maybe soon if Bush keeps up his way most of us are going to get real tired of the other two.

until he was 40? I didn't know it was that long.

Plus my .02 on Kerry. The flip-flopping thing has me a little worried. I really can't stand the republicans slamming him for being a Vietnam vet who is so outspoken against war. Give me a break I would much rather have someone who's been through it be against war, than say someone who's never been starting as many as he can. Hell they can't even prove Bush was a competent national guardsman. There will probably never be someone who can come along and fix all the messes. But I'm confident that Kerry unlike Bush will fix more than he breaks.

OK, I found this and thought it was just way too amusing

it's a great version of "This land is my land"...

and it fits with the topic title.

Just a bit of humor to brighten everyone's day until we can get this dumbass out of office.
