I recall Bush being demonized by Michael Moore in Fahrenheit 9/11 for playing golf after the attacks by al-Qaeda. So which is it?

Christopher Hitchens:

The president is also captured in a well-worn TV news clip, on a golf course, making a boilerplate response to a question on terrorism and then asking the reporters to watch his drive. Well, that’s what you get if you catch the president on a golf course. If Eisenhower had done this, as he often did, it would have been presented as calm statesmanship. If Clinton had done it, as he often did, it would have shown his charm.

And Moore’s deception:

The TV ads for Michael Moore’s “documentary” Fahrenheit 9/11 feature a mocking clip of President Bush on a golf course. Bush declares, “I call upon all nations to do everything they can to stop these terrorists killers,” and then Moore jumps to Bush adding, as he prepares to swing at a golf ball, “now watch this drive.” Tuesday night on FNC’s Special Report with Brit Hume, Brian Wilson noted how “the viewer is left with the misleading impression Mr. Bush is talking about al-Qaeda terrorists.” But Wilson disclosed that “a check of the raw tape reveals the President is talking about an attack against Israel, carried out by a Palestinian suicide bomber.”

Have you ever tried to talk to a liberal. It is impossible and like talking to a brick wall. There is no truth only opinions.
and if they can’t convince you of their take of any issue they get snarky and start calling you names and use profanity. There is no way in hell to unite this country unless conservatives give up all ideals and opinions and let the liberal truth stand. They are right and we are wrong. And witness they still have this asinine idea Bush is on the ballot in November. BDS is alive and well. They have BDS so bad they are willing to take a chance on the survival of this country in order to feed their disease.

From the “Meticulously Created/Fabricated (When Convenient) Records Department” of cBS.

These are the same folks who brought us the quickly debunked National Guard memos which were, by their own admission, “fake, but accurate”.

Sorry, I don’t buy into anything that cBS has to say.

Nothing.

The US president traced his decision to the August 19, 2003 bombing of UN headquarters in Baghdad, which killed the world body’s top official in Iraq, Sergio Vieira de Mello.

“I remember when de Mello, who was at the UN, got killed in Baghdad as a result of these murderers taking this good man’s life. And I was playing golf — I think I was in central Texas — and they pulled me off the golf course and I said, it’s just not worth it anymore to do,” said Bush.

Bush’s last round of golf as president dates back to October 13, 2003, according to meticulous records kept by CBS news.

So he misremembered, and golfed one time after? Ok.

When Aye Chihuahua asked you:

Do you have sources and/or other info to support your claims?

I think he was referring to all of your other assertions, which you accept as given facts that made you say

And you’re still worked up about “the left.”

But not President Bush. The golf part, anyways. At least not during a time of war. Tis better than playing through with a callous ‘armadillo Ike’ impression for the BDS crowd to excoriate him. Right? Wrong! Flopping Aces has more….

If you’re going to make claims that “Bush lied” then you need to be prepared to show some proof.

Do you have sources and/or other info to support your claims?

President Bush is unpopular for doing the right thing, even when it is difficult.

Congress is unpopular for doing nothing, because that’s easier.

Reminds me of a scene I once saw in a fantastic HBO film about how the holocaust was ordered. At the end of the movie, the NAZI generals are sitting around and discussing their meeting with the other people who authorized and formed the genocide. They talk about one of the Germans who was opposed to it, and they tell a story. The story is that there was a man who was beaten by his father for years and years. When the young man became an adult, his mother died, but the young man-hardened by years of abuse-didn’t shed a tear. He felt the terrible loss, but had learned the hard way how to hold back his tears. Later in his life, his father passed away. At the funeral, the son wept uncontrollably. “Why did he cry for his abusive father and not his loving mother?” asked the other generals.

Because with the man’s father gone, the son now had no one to hate.

George Bush has been a lame duck President for almost 2 years, and he’s still hated even more and more by the left. Soon, he’ll be gone, and the mantra will of course be the same as that which many people (myself included) still claim about cleaning up the previous President’s mess. But only so much responsibility can go to earlier Presidents.

We can point out that Clinton let UBL get away for years and years, but GWB has failed to get him too.
We can point out that Clinton bred the reformation of AQ and UBL’s decision to kill Americans by continuing to let Saddam stay in power, but to do so ignores the fact that AQ is still in power, and Iraq is still a work in progress
We can point out that Clinton left office with an economy in collapse, a recession starting on innauguration day, and a dot-com bubble that busted more than burst, but it ignores the reality of 2009.
We can point out that Clinton did nothing to bring the USS Cole plotters to justice, but so too has the Bush Admin
We can point out that Clinton left the nation’s political wings deeply divided and spiteful towards each other, but it ignores that Bush will have failed to unite the nation as well by 2009

There’s plenty of blame for America’s problems. This President or that, this party or that, but the fact is that acidic morons who see only good from the red or the blue are the people who cause these problems. You don’t unite a nation filled with people who have different opinions by picking fights and arguments with “the other side.” No, you have to be a bit liberal; open-minded. You have to try and understand what people are saying, and then you have to try and convince them to work together. Clinton failed. Bush failed (utterly in this matter above all others). Hillary Clinton is far too polarizing to ever make such unity happen. Barack Obama sings a nice song, but that’s it. He still polarizes the nation, and he does nothing to quell division in what is supposed to be the United States. John McCain…well, his policies have the benefit of ticking off people from both sides of the aisle, and his charisma is as exciting as Jimmy Carter or Gerald Ford’s. American history is packed with hero Presidents and boring Presidents. Maybe he’s the guy, but will a nation that votes more for American Idol vote for substance or sizzle? Will the left continue with their BDS, or will they weep when they have no one left to hate as the NAZI generals did in that movie?
