From The Official Blog of the Democratic Party, on President Bush's surprise visit to Iraq to meet with the troops for Thanksgiving:
I really like the bumper sticker that says "Frank Burns is our President!"
Apparently the Bush visit to Iraq was a test of this administrations "Deception skills". I thought those skills were already well honed; he should be working on his honesty skills!
And then there's this:
BTW - Bush's Big Iraq visit - included ONE dinner for 600 soldiers, which he spent a total of 2 hours in Iraq for, and then left Iraq again.
Big whoopdy - doo. You can bet there will be lots and lots of pictures of this spread around by the good ole boys.
And this:
The other thing was that Hillary was in general area, and intended to visit Iraq tomorrow; this was meant to one-up the former First Lady and Senator.
And this:
President Bush has been airlifted into Baghdad to give an uplifting speech to 600 servicemen, telling them that the U.S. will not be pushed out of Iraq by thugs.
An interesting use of U.S. airpower (and another interesting made-for-TV/re-election spot).
And this:
Bush is such a brave man. He had to sneak into Iraq. Very impressive. Never left the airport. Then he high-tailed it out of there. Mission accomplished.
Let's get this coward, unelected fraud, faux cowboy out of office.
And this:
Bubble boy bush is so insulated that there is absolutely no chance of him being shot down or anything else. No! No! No! I would never want any President shot down or killed by anyone, first whether I like him or not he has the title President, second I would hate for him to become a martyr and that is exactly what would happen by the gopers and far right, third I want to see him defeated period.
His photo op in Iraq is nothing more than that a photo op, he is slipping in the polls and the repugs watch that closer than the Holy Bible, and he needs some sort of good news as his trip to the UK was a grand flop those Brits are more savy than the average American sad to say, they see through to the small minded little cowardly weasel he is.
And this:
As for the President visiting Iraq, it was grant standing pure and simple. He found out the vets were finding out about him deserting and up in arms.
And no we wouldn't want him announcing that he was visiting, don't think we're stupid because we're liberal.
And this:
I heard part of Bush's speech to the troops, all 600 of them, last night. I sweat to God it sounded like he said "…we are still killing Iraqi Civilians. We are not going home until the job is done." I swear it sounded like he said that killing Iraqi Civilians was the job. I know he didn't say that (even if he thought it), but that is what it sounded like.
I applaud Hillary for going to Afghanistan, since the misAdministration seems to have forgotten about it. THAT is where 9-11 came from, and the job isn't done. Nice to know that he can get the good press, then bail out.
