Why would a mother of 3 choose to work 3 jobs unless she had to? And then Bush commends her for doing it? (The kicker is him saying its the American thing to do...)

"See, free nations are peaceful nations. Free nations don't attack each other. Free nations don't develop weapons of mass destruction." —George W. Bush, Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 3, 2003

 

^oh the irony.

 

How so? we didnt attack a free nation...

"The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa." —George W. Bush, State of the Union Address, Jan. 28, 2003, making a claim that administration officials knew at the time to be false

True' date=' but I don't remember Clinton getting his words in such a twist!!;)[/quote']

 

 

Oh yeah?

 

"the purpose of government is to rein in the rights of the people"

during an interview on MTV in 1993

 

"African-Americans watch the same news at night that ordinary Americans do."

President Clinton on Black Entertainment Television, November 2, 1994

 

 

"You know, if I were a single man, I might ask that mummy out. That's a good-looking mummy!"---Bill Clinton

 

"I'm sure I spent more time in Texas than anybody else who had run for President recently." (Bill Clinton in Longview, Texas, U.S. Newswire, 9/27/96)

 

"Thanks for the poncho."

President Clinton said this when he was presented with the Romanian tri-color flag during his visit in July. The flag did have a head-sized hole in the middle... But flags with the centers ripped out are the norm in Romania these days. With holes where the hated communist emblem used to be, such flags symbolize the 1989 anti-Communist revolt that led to the establishment of democracy. Shouldn't our President KNOW this??

 

Wait a minute... George Bush (1988, 1992), Ross Perot (1992, 1996), and Phil Gramm (1996) - all Texans who recently ran for the presidency. (George Bush moved to TX in 1948 after graduating from Yale, founded an oil company in 1953, ran for the Senate in 1964, elected to the House in 1966, 1968 and ran for Senate in 1970. So, except for the 10 years (1970-1980), Bush was a Texan since 1948.)

 

"I am the only President in who knew something about agriculture when I got there." (Bill Clinton, Washington Post, 4/26/95)

 

Ummm...geee Mr. Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Harry Truman, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington who were all farmers before they were Presidents.

In the first debate Clinton told us:

 

"And the deficit has come down for four years in a row for the first time since before the Civl War. I meant to say since before World War II. But maybe it should be since before the Civil War."

 

The last time was actually 1944-1947 followed by a year of surplus increase.

(Historical Statistics, Bicentennial Edition by the Dept of Commerce)

 

In January 1994 Clinton made a trip to Europe. At that time there was some friction between the European leaders and the U.S. about troop deployments in Bosnia. While in Belgium, the European leaders and Clinton had a cocktail party. It was covered by CNN. On their 3:00PM (CST) broadcast, CNN with Frank Cezno showed a clip of the party. It showed Clinton talking to Helmut Kohl and saying, "I was thinking of you last night, Helmut, because I watched the sumo wrestling on television."

Is Bill Clinton saying the leader of unified Germany looks like a sumo wrestler?

 

 

The president was giving a speech in Berlin in May, 1998, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Airlift, which kept the city afloat in 1948-49 when Stalin attempted to starve it into submission. Clinton chose to give special recognition to then-Lt. Gail Halvorsen of Provo, Utah, who had dropped packages of candy for Berlin's children from his aircraft as he landed with supplies at Templehoff Airport.

 

"She is here with us today," the president declared, speaking of Halvorsen. "I'd like to ask her to stand."

 

Gail Halvorsen then stood up - Mr. Gail Halvorsen, a 77-year old grandfather.

 

"Thank you, Sir, " said Clinton.

 

Granted, Gail is also a woman's name - but wouldn't one think that our President would check this prior to making the announcement?

"[There is] no question that an admission of making false statements to government officials and interfering with the FBI and the CIA is an impeachable offense."

Arkansas Gazette 8 August 1974

haha no he didn't.. he just got Monica's knickers in a twist with a touch of cigar rolling... :lol:

 

Given a choice, I'd rather be remembered for that than being a "dumb-ass"!!:cool:

Bill's reputation doesn't appear to have suffered for it in the long run. He's still welcomed with open arms wherever he goes.

I very much doubt that will happen with Dubya once he "retires"!!:rolleyes:

see.. well Clinton is funny... there's a difference.. lol and when he spoke to the public as in State Of the Union addresses... he sounded like he knew what he was talking about.. and confident.

 

Even Bush Sr. was a better speaker than Dubble Ya...

So? that does not mean you are dumb...He's welcomed with open arms because he did what europe wanted him to do. That is the only reason.

Yeah but he's said a billion dumb things.....using YOUR own reasoning he is dumb then....

I don't really think Clinton ever made up words.. or spoke English incorrectly.... he just said dumb things like 'I did not have sexual relations with that woman' lol

mmmmm, tastes like idiocy.

I don't really think Clinton ever made up words.. or spoke English incorrectly.... he just said dumb things like 'I did not have sexual relations with that woman' lol

 

Hmmm so do you think clinton is dumb?

You see, its not because he says dumb things you think he is stupid, its because you disagree with him and dislike him. because clinton has said many dumb things, yet no one attacks him for it....proves my point.

Oh jeez, why does everything have to become some stupid conservative vs. liberal debate around here? Whoop de fuckin' do with Clinton. :snore: I'm so sick of conservatives using Clinton as their ammo. It's sooooooooo boring. There's about 10 "different" versions of this shitty debate going around this section of the forum and I'm sick of hearing about it.

 

 

 

 

Let's embrace GW Bush's inarticulateness and stupidity, I'm sure it is something that both parties can agree on :nice:

You see' date=' its not because he says dumb things you think he is stupid, its because you disagree with him and dislike him. because clinton has said many dumb things, yet no one attacks him for it....proves my point.[/quote']

 

 

 

No. It's because he says stupid things that I think they're stupid things. Even when I supported his policies I thought he talked like a dipshit.

Then do you think clinton is stupid? he has said many very dumb things too.

Hey if you are gonna attack GW for saying stupid things, dont act like he's alone. Clinton and many other presidents have said just as many dumb things.....

Yeah, sure, things he's said have been dumb. But he don't talk like diss. I'm amused by a lot of things people have said, I'm sure people could find incredibly dumb things JFK, FDR or Lincoln had said. I'm POSITIVE, in fact I'll go look for them if I have to.

 

 

 

The problem is is that Bush talks in the wrong tense half the time, it's just pathetic. I guess it says a lot about our nation as a whole, however, when our elected official not just says incredibly ironic/contradictory things, but says them with wrong grammer as well :sick: Oh well. I guess ideas are more powerful than intelligence.
