Stay on the offense

By Jessica Clark
A few choice Bush quotes:

  • "The best way to defeat them is to never waver...constantly stay on the offensive and at the same time spread liberty."



  • "A free Iraq will be major defeat in their ideology of hatred." [Because they hate us for our freedom]



  • Not pursuing a pre-emptive strategy demonstrates a ???pre-September 10th mentality???



  • ???You better have a president who chases these terrorists down and brings them to justice before they hurt us again.???



  • "A free Iraq will secure Israel" [whaaa?]



  • Petulantly: ???That???s not what a commander-in-chief does???



  • ???I know how these people think; I deal with them all the time??I talk to them on the phone frequently.??? [Just check my cellular bill!]



  • ???Our coalition will remain strong as long as I???m the president??? [translation: and weak if you don't vote for me]



  • Why is the post-Iraq cleanup so difficult? ???Because we achieved such a rapid victory" [Mission accomplished?]



  • And don't forget, "it's hard work" [What, isn't this guy getting paid?]



  • ???Osama bin Laden doesn???t determine how we defend ourselves...I do.???



  • [What's this about loving that war widow? That was a bit creepy.]



  • ???Every life is precious???that???s what distinguishes us from the enemy.???



  • Bush: a broken record--"a grand diversion"



  • No, wait, did I mention that it's "hard work"?



  • Someone called Allawi ???a puppet?????????that???s no way to treat someone who???s courageous and brave.???



  • ???They???re fighting us because they???re fighting freedom???



  • ???By speaking clearly and sending messages that we mean what we say, we???ve affected the world in a positive way.???


  • Exasperated: ???Of course I know Osama bin Laden attacked us???I know that.???
    [well, we were wondering]


  • Those damned "Eye-ranian moolahs" [OK, Eliza Doolittle]


  • Kerry sends "mexed missages" [are you as think as I drunk you are?]


  • ???What I won???t do is change my core values because of politics or pressure.??? [or evidence]


  • ???Disrupting the trans-shipment??? [huh?]


  • ???The military will be an all-volunteer army???


  • ???I believe in the transformational power of liberty??? [as long as I'm in charge]


  • ???We???ve climbed the mighty mountain, and seen the valley below, and it???s a valley of peace.???




Note from a friend:
"On the split screen they are making Kerry and Bush look the same height when they aren't."

Isn't that what they're doing every day in the news?
