Can you document claims that Bush told the TRUTH?
Yes, it is accepted by many that Bush always lies. That is because he has been CAUGHT in many lies and his credibilty is shot.
One Du'er seems to think that there are few actual connections to Bush and his lies and ask for tangible proof.

Still, when Bush speaks his words are given, by the MSM, a undeserved credibilty and his past BS is rarely brought up.
So, I am asking for absolute proof for instances where Bush has actually told the truth.

2. Easy.

I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty
And potential mental losses.

Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the Internet
Become more few?

How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.

I know that the human being
And the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope, where our wings take dream.

Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher!
Make the pie higher!


i so desperately wanted a reason to post that.

4. He tells the truth when giving his name.
After that? Nada.

5. If he ever has told the truth, it was purely accidental.

6. When he told a German newspaper that catching a fish was his greatest moment as President
I think that bore a certain ring of truth.

7. "What an impressive crowd: the haves, and the have-mores. Some people call you...
the elite, I call you my base."
Now that's the absolute truth!

8. Like when he said he wanted to know who leaked a CIA operative's identity,
when he knew who leaked the CIA operative's identity?

Or when he said Constitutional protections were in place when it came to getting warrants when he was doing everything he could to hide the fact that he stopped seeking warrants before 9/11?

9. "George W. Bush is a liar.
He has lied large and small, directly and by omission. He has mugged the truth -- not merely in honest error, but deliberately, consistently, and repeatedly."
--The Lies of George W. Bush; David Corn; 2003.

Corn has compiled 354 pages of President Bush's lies from his first term in the White House. Remember when Bush said he would hold anyone involved in the Plame leak responsible? Or when a European reporter confronted him on the WMD farce, and Bush said, "We found the weapons of mass destruction. We found biological laboratories ... And we'll find more weapons as time goes by. But for those who say we haven't found the banned manufactoring devices or banned weapons, they're wrong. We found them."

11. "I am the president. I am the president. I am the president."
His drunken boasting was true enough, to our everlasting shame.

12. But since he was never actually elected...
That quote should have an * next to it
