Bush To Address NAACP

[gr8fuldaniel]

Wouldnt it be funny if a large Black man snuck up behind bush and put both hands around his neck at this convention?


Like bush just did to the German Chancellor Merkel.........

It would have been even funnier if German Secret Service had shot junior for this act of agression.

you take Bush anywhere but OUT

Quote by: underbear1 Two days before Katrina hit Bush through FEMA declared it a NATIONAL emergency, that pretty much put Katrina relief in the hands of the federal government

You can declare the area what ever you like, but the whole place became a big state swamp with criminals and looters making it even more impossible to rescue people.

You can't expect the government to save you that well in a disaster of such a large scale very fast.
Hundreds of miles were destroyed at once and the government is not like Christ in being able to be everywhere at once.

Any improvements in government to respond better is going to be good, but all government rescues probably tend to get worse as the disaster gets bigger.

If (GOD FORBID) a nuclear bomb goes off in NY, people who can walk out on their own on the perimeter will be the people to survive, the rest who wait there for the government will die of radiation poisoning.

Look how long it takes government to repair roads.
Look how bad education has been for how long with little change.
Look at all the fraud in the welfare state that happens.

I see nothing regarding the past performance of government that suggest they can guarantee you they can save you from anything.

If you leave yourself in a bad position and are going to wait for the government to save you, you very likely could die, no matter who is in power in Washington. That is the nature of the government IMO.

Wow, she looks as frigid as Hillary doesn't she.

Bush has no problem with any people, he governed every kind before he was President.
He's just not going to be well received by those whose lives are dependent on governemt and government jobs. Those types are dependents and would have problems with self reliance IMO.

You are something else, GBA. First this ignorant clown acts like an uncouth slob with the Prime Minister of the UK (and I thought "Yo, Blair!" was a nice touch) and then decides to give the Prime Minister of Germany a neck rub. I guess he thought chicks dig neck rubs whether they want one or not. The stupid rube still thinks he's in a dorm, I suppose.

And this classless clown represents the United States? I wouldn't even want him to go with me to a party for fear he'd embarrass me.

Why do I get the feeling if his last name wasn't Bush I'd be seeing him in an episode of "COPS"?

I guess you don't like the friendly style that the people of Texas have.

He's no clown act, if not for him, we'd be in worse shape because of the biggest clown act ever.

He has been living on the government dole for almost 6 years federally, and for his Governor job too.
So I guess he doesn't get along well with himself.

He was paid his Governor's salary while Governor of Texas, but at least he was voted in and did something. That is more than we can say for most all government employees who are not voted in and are vastly overpaid using our tax dollars.

Regular government jobs should not pay more than the average wage or benefits in the private sector.
Last time I read an article about the matter, it was printed that government employees (the unelected ones) were overpaid 50% compared to the private sector.

He also lived in government housing, and has a golden parachute when he's done being president, including lifetime Secret Service protection. He is one I can see would need lifetime of armed guards, because I can think of thousands of people who'd like to see his early demise, better have a lifetime food taster too.

He lived as Gov and lives now as President where he is expected to so he can both be protected and not a burden to some private community if he did something else.
Clinton stopped lifetime protection (excluding himself of course because he is such a bastard) and Bush and all future Presidents get 10 years.
Being a war President, I think some executive order in the future will have to protect President Bush for life.
Presidential salaries and retirement is small compared to executives at even modestly big companies. The pay day for them is after they retire doing speeches and books.

I like the idea of Bush making his living on his books, that buffoon can't even read, he sure as hell can't write.

Quote by: GodBlessAmerica I guess you don't like the friendly style that the people of Texas have.

What? You mean ALL the people from Texas would sneak up behind strange women and put their hands around their throats with no warning? The Texas board of tourism doesn't mention that for some reason.

Respect of a woman's person is something civilized adult men exercise. I'm not surprised Bush thinks it's okay. And he wasn't offering a handshake, he put his hands around her NECK without warning! Perhaps Merkel was assaulted when she was younger and has a bad reaction to being touched by surprise. The look on her face was certainly NOT easy acceptance of a "friendly" neck rub (which strangers don't give anyway). The asshole in chief didn't consider that possibility I'm sure, but just charged right in being "friendly".

Try practicing that "friendly style" on strange women sometime and see how far YOU get. Try a NYC subway.

Maybe Bush could blow on Putin's belly too. THAT would be pretty friendly.

Bush is not running for re-election, so should you say he is gunning for votes? Ridiculous. Take it at face value.

However, I have found it amusing some blame the federal government for the results of a natural disaster. Again, ridiculous. Common sense would tell you noit to stand on the tracks when the train comes through. The more reason to push for higher test scores, as I see stupidity in these such actions. Maybe some should pay more attention to Bush policy. The chances of seeing the light of the next day somewhat increases.

Being a war President

I doubt undeclared wars count.

Approved by Congress no doubt.

He is pulling for those who ARE running. The votes he is "gunning for" are for THEM, not him.
There IS a mid-term election coming up and the president customarily lends his name and influence to those in his party who are running. This is hardly news.

However, I have found it amusing some blame the federal government for the results of a natural disaster. Again, ridiculous.

The government is mostly being blamed for their incompetence and bungling of what they promised they could and WOULD do in the event a natural disaster DID occur. If they hadn't been touting FEMA as the saviour of those stricken by natural disaster not nearly as many people would have faulted them.
Just don't promise the world and people can't hold you to it.

Perhaps you could list those policies so we can discuss them.

Which I think calls into question what good all this "homeland security" we're paying for is going to do when the terrorists strike again in the U.S. Is it going to be as effective as FEMA was after Katrina? Let's hope not.

Quote by: underbear1 I can tell you in ONE word why Bush is addressing the NAACP this year, and he declined all the previous years...............KATRINA. etched FOREVER in the hearts of every American who witnessed this atrocious lack of response by Bush adminstration.

How long do we have to listen to this crap? There was no "lack of response." The infrastructure of the NO area was destroyed. To make things worse, the Black Police Chief of NO was telling the world that there were roving armed gangs in the streets of NO (there actually were). No group is going to send unarmed relief workers into an area that is not secure. Only after the area was secured could relief be brought in. In the best of circumstances, it would have taken days to get relief into the area. The (largely white) areas also hit by the hurricane banded together without the violence and looting and pulled each other through until help arrive. These urban thugs were responsible for the delay and heartache of their neighbors... as always.

the Black Police Chief of NO

How is his race relevant to the rest of your comments?

Quote by: Isherwood the Black Police Chief of NO How is his race relevant to the rest of your comments?

I'll let you think about it for a while. You know the answer, but have a knee-jerk reaction anytime a person's race is mentioned.

Did you break through your dogma?

The race-baiters are saying it was racism by Bush and others that led to the crisis. I point out that it was a black leader that helped create the hysteria.

Why won't you shut off your dogma and admit who the racists are? It would be easier talking to the Spanish Inquistion than debating you. PC is the opposite of thinking. You replace dogma with thought. It's dangerous. And it makes you boring and gives you knee-jerk reactions to everything. I can't think of a single post from you that wasn't some slogan you learned from your masters...
