Does this monster look like his heart breaks on a regular basis?
Edited on Fri Dec-22-06 06:54 AM by Philosoraptor
Q Thank you, Mr. President. Mr. President, Lyndon Johnson famously didn't sleep during the Vietnam War, questioning his own decisions. You have always seemed very confident of your decisions, but I can't help but wonder if this has been a time of painful realization for you as you, yourself, have acknowledged that some of the policies you hoped would succeed have not. And I wonder if you can talk to us about that. Has it been a painful time?

THE PRESIDENT: Yes, thanks. The most painful aspect of my presidency has been knowing that good men and women have died in combat. I read about it every night. My heart breaks for a mother or father, or husband or wife, or son and daughter; it just does. And so when you ask about pain, that's pain. I reach out to a lot of the families, I spend time with them. I am always inspired by their spirit. Most people have asked me to do one thing, and that is to make sure that their child didn't die in vain -- and I agree with that -- that the sacrifice has been worth it.

We'll accomplish our objective; we've got to constantly adjust our tactics to do so. We've got to insist that the Iraqis take more responsibility more quickly in order to do so.

But I -- look, my heart breaks for them, it just does, on a regular basis.



-------------------------

I watched the monster speak these words the other day, and then I re-read this paragraph this morning. This paragraph enrages me. This paragraph says it all.

Do you think that his black lump of coal of a heart has ever broken, even once, over all the misery he's overseen? Do you think there is even one hint of truth to the above paragraph?

Only seconds later he was giggling and grinning like the grinch again as he spoke of how we were not winning, yet not losing in Iraq. Will his heart break on a regular basis at the 25 Christmas parties he will soon attend?

Fuck your poor broken heart mr. bush, our hatred for you grows more and more each day, it just does.

1. He never gives a second thought to a dead GI
They mean nothing to him...they are just numbers/
But he has learned like all sociopaths that you have to give lip service to compassion and that is all that will be required of you.
Especially with a press that is afraid to ask many questions.

3. Something is not right with this person.
He seems disconnected with reality. I am convinced that he is a true Sociopath.

6. He has to fucking read about their deaths for his heart to break!?!
Does this mean he forgets they are dying if no one reads the news to him?

Fuck him.

He's a Lying Sociopathic Bastard. But this is old news to all of us.

8. Look, my heart breaks for them, on a regular basis.
Now if that isn't the sincerest gut wrenching emotional statement I've ever heard out of another human being.

Not. :puke:

You know what it instantly reminded me of? Remember the movie, Groundhog Day? When Bill Murray is trying to impress the girl by building the snowman and throwing snowballs at the kids, all calculated to win her love...about the tenth day of doing this, all of his lovely words come out sounding like blah blah blah...
