It's sad how many lies Bush can weave into one press event
by John Aravosis (DC) · 11/01/2007
Here's what our incompetent commander in chief, the guy lost the war in Iraq and let Osama go, had to say today:
"Unfortunately, on too many issues, some in Congress are behaving as if America is not at war," Bush said during a speech at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank. "This is no time for Congress to weaken the Department of Justice by denying it a strong and effective leader. ... It's no time for Congress to weaken our ability to intercept information from terrorists about potential attacks on the United States of America. And this is no time for Congress to hold back vital funding for our troops as they fight al-Qaida terrorists and radicals in Afghanistan and Iraq."http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071101/ap_on_go_pr_wh/bush_5
Hmm, let's see:
1. America doesn't have an attorney general because Bush let his old guy resign after he broke too many laws for even the corrupt Bush administration. So tell us again why we don't have an attorney general.
2. Weaken our ability to intercept communications? Congress sent Bush a new domestic spying law and he vetoed it because it didn't grant Verizon and AT&T immunity for illegally spying on innocent Americans' phone records. Had nothing to do with his ability to intercept Al Qaeda - Congress gave him that, and he vetoed it. So again, it's Bush's fault we don't have a new domestic spying law.
3. Funding the troops? Huh? Congress fully funded the troops. They're fully funded until after New Years. It's only November 1. What is he even talking about?
Our president is a liar. That's because he comes from a party of liars. All the extremists leading the Republican party know how to do nowadays is lie. They look in a mirror, pick out the worst things they're doing, and then blame the Democrats for it. Bush let Osama go? Blame the Democrats! Bush bankrupted the country while Clinton left us with hundreds of billions of dollars of surplus? Call the Democrats fiscally irresponsible because they want to add a few billion to a program to insure millions of children.
