The Emperor, I Mean the Idiot, Strikes Back...

So, Bush decided to give Congress a "What-Fer" today. Let's go through the article. It's just chock full of interesting stuff!!

Bush derided calls from Congress for troop withdrawals or deadlines so that the military could focus more on the anti-terror battle elsewhere. "This argument makes no sense," he said.

Do I even NEED to say anything here? This guy just wants to warmonger as much as possible in all the wrong places. Yes, I DO understand that the situation in Iraq is bad, but it's bad BECAUSE Bush went in when he shouldn't have. And he's put us in an untenable position where he's caused far more damage than good.

Bush suggested that Iraqi officials were able to make more progress than the U.S. Congress.

"They got their budget passed," the president said. "Sometimes it takes our Congress awhile to get its budget passed.

Um. That's because you keep VETOING ANY budget you don't like and that doesn't give you what you want, Idiot!!

"Nevertheless some members of Congress decided the best way to encourage progress in Baghdad was to criticize and threaten Iraq's leaders while they're trying to work out their differences," Bush said.

There's been criticism because it's been YEARS! More than enough time to work it all out and get the government going. Perhaps at this point threatening is the ONLY way to get the Iraqis off their collective asses and start taking responsibility for themselves!

"But hectoring was not what the Iraqi leaders needed," he said. "What they needed was security. And that is what the surge has provided."

If this weren't so sad, I'd be rolling on the floor laughing my head off. The surge provided SECURITY?! Sure, there was a lull, but the last few weeks seem to negate whatever supposed "gains" the US surge made.

"They're trying to build a modern democracy on the rubble of three decades of tyranny, in a region of the world that has been hostile to freedom. And they're doing it while under assault from one of history's most brutal terrorist networks," Bush said. "When it takes time for Iraqis to reach agreement, it is not foot-dragging, as one senator described it during Congress' two-week Easter recess. It is a revolutionary undertaking that requires great courage."

B.S. It's foot-dragging. They've had help, supervision, oversight, funds, and a military at their disposal. And they've pretty much done nothing. Know why? Because it's a lot easier to have someone do everything for you than to do it yourself.

"No matter what shortcomings these critics diagnose, their prescription is always the same: retreat," Bush said. "They claim that our strategic interest is elsewhere and if we would just get out of Iraq, we could focus on the battles that really matter."

Why, yes. We COULD focus on more important battles, like in Afghanistan and Pakistan, where Al Qaeda is stronger now than it's EVER been.

But, he countered, "If America's strategic interests are not in Iraq, the convergence point for the twin threats of al-Qaida and Iran, the nation Osama bin Laden's deputy has called the place for the greatest battle, the country at the heart of the most volatile region on earth, then where are they?"

Iraq is the CONVERGENCE?! Iraq had NOTHING to do with Al Qaeda until the Idiot bumbled in, ILLEGALLY, and spiraled Iraq into complete chaos. And since when is Iraq a "convergence point" for Iran?! That's ridiculous! Iran has NEVER expressed an interest in Iraq. If anything, Iran has expressed interest in nuking Israel and other Western interests.

Well, wasn't THAT a fun article? This guy is such a huge IDIOT, anything he says just gets his foot so deep in his mouth it ends up coming out his rear-end.
