Yeah, you are.
____For the last two weeks Bush lovers have been upset with non Bush lovers for blaming Bush,
And now Bush say's he is to blame, and the Bush lovers are happy?
am I missing something here?
Yeah, you are.
...now you know better than to point fingers....
well thank you for sharing with me what that could be. I can see your overflowing with information, This forum should be lucky to have a person as yourself.
All that talk the Bush lovers did and for what? They must feel like right now
They are.
But, since you've obviously relied on second-hand accounts of the President's statement, I'll help you out.
The President didn't take the blame, he merely said, "To the extent" mistakes were made in the federal response, he accepted responsibility. That's nowhere near accepting blame for anything.
I also like how the press glossed over his statement that there were problems at "all levels of government," in the response to Hurrican Katrina.
Dubyad40"Katrina exposed serious problems in our response capability at all levels of government, and to the extent that the federal government didn't fully do it's job right, I take responsibility."
Sure, he takes responsibility, but that is one holy mother of a "qualifying statement" attached to that responsibility. "to the extent that the federal government" (not me, the other parts of the federal government - THOSE guys over there) "didn't fully do it's job right" (define "Fully" doing it's job right - he's leaving himself miles of wiggle room here). The first part of the statement is also rather telling: "problems in our response capability" (not in our execution of the response, but in the capability) "at all levels of government" (the state and local guys didn't have the capability, and that caused the feds to not be able to execute their part fully).
He's not taking responsibility at all. He gave himself a half dozen outs in the way he worded that statement. Yet, he used the word responsibility. He said "I take responsibility" so that all the freepers and dittomonkeys can now rave about what a great leader he is and how accountable and heroic he is, how he is taking responsibility for other people's failings. How many hours or days will it be until we hear him being compared favorably to Harry "The Buck Stops Here" Truman on the radio and TV? How long until his poll numbers climb back into the 40's? That's what this is all about. It's not about responsibility, it's about P.R. It's about covering his sorry ass. It's about pretending to be large and in charge in order to try to regain the trust of the right wing christo-fascist nazi brigade.
His speech on Thursday night will be more of the same. "I take responsibility - sort of. Just like I did after 9/11. Remember 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, freedom, democracy, terror, sacrifice, spreading freedom, compassion, 9/11, freedom, democracy 9/11" and by the end of the speech the brainwashed freepers will be crying in their kool-aid over what a great leader he is. The rest of us, who have the intestinal for ude to watch it at all, will be busy mopping up our own vomit.
The boy-king is once again being manipulated by his puppet masters. Soon (if it hasn't started already) the right wing freakshow (rush, oreally, hannity, etc) will be singing his praises to the adoring masses. They will in turn blindly follow along like good little nazi's in the belief that, although it appears at first glance that the emperor has no clothes, that tiny little tassel dangling below his navel is really an adornment on a new outfit. I'm sure they'll think it looks "fabulous."
this guy is missing something too
people who love bush around here rrrrreallllllyyyyyyyy love bush
There are people here who show respect for the person currently holding the le Commander in Chief, President George Bush. That does not equate to being "Bush lovers". When it comes to placing blame for inadequate response to Katrina, I can't think of any one in particular that has unequivocally exonerated or totally absolved the President of all responsibility. They are merely correctly pointing out (and I might add, to no avail) that the initial and most critical failings were at the local and state levels.
There are many who take exception to those who tirelessly and ignorantly insist that the shortcomings of disaster aid and response time rest solely with FEMA and the federal government. They take exception to the endless harping and unceasing plundering of our President and his every action. Again, that does not equate to being a Bush lover.
Bush lovers= Respectful of our President. What he essentially said and what all except the most ignorant realize is that when a national disaster of this magnitude occurs it is not possible to avert tragedies, some of which would have been lessened with a more coordinated effort by all branches of government. However we have those that are blinded by hate posting here who confuse hindsight with foresight and shamelessly apply the former as the basis for castigating the actions of those who they dislike (hate) instead of intelligently applying it as a means of correcting and exposing weaknesses in an effort to better serve those that may be affected by catastrophic disasters in the future.gollum: And now Bush say's he is to blame, and the Bush lovers are happy?
Happy? I would say they may be showing an appreciation for someone who has enough character to admit that there were situations that could have been handled in a more efficient manner. Gov Blanco should take notice and do the same.
the greatest part of my day is when 'Bush-lovers" argue against the Cons ution, and for Haliburton
over and over again...I only speak in rants
Do you respect Kori? if so. then how come if someone says something they don't like about the website your not in thier face?
many folks in here eat, sleep, and breath Bush, and they get fired up if anyone says anything that is makes him look bad, They are so quick to defend him , To me , that is a Love that is very rare, almost like you are talking abouth thier Mothers. I respect my pastor at church but I don't get all bent out of shape if someone thinks he screwed up on something.
But leave it to a Bush lover to somehow wiggle out of the truth,
say something bad about Bush and I might believe you.that does not equate to being a Bush lover.

[QUOTE]Enough to refer to her as Mrs. Ellis. I've never heard anyone say anything bad about this website. And dissent doesn't have to be viewed so seriously as to label it as being "in their face", it's no more or no less than an exchange of opposing views.
Poor parallel Newmee
Perhaps they take exception to the fact that their attempts to make him look bad are often without merit.Newman: many folks in here eat, sleep, and breath Bush, and they get fired up if anyone says anything that is makes him look bad, They are so quick to defend him , To me , that is a Love that is very rare, almost like you are talking abouth thier Mothers. I respect my pastor at church but I don't get all bent out of shape if someone thinks he screwed up on something,
I defend based on what I perceive to be attacks on truth and not based on who the attack is directed at, more often than not the President is the target of the attack. As I stated in my previous post, some people tire of the incessant haranguing and usually baseless attacks on every move made and every word spoken by the President.
I don't believe you would...Newman: say something bad about Bush and I might believe you.
This thread sucks...
