This is more or less the verbatim transcript of a Q&A response I heard King George II give last week. Which would tend to explain why he takes questions so rarely.
See, I know a lot of you think he's the head cook and bottle washer, but in truth, he doesn't even know where they keep the spoon used to stir up these messes.
But when asked if he'd still invade Iraq knowing they had no ties to Al Queda, no WMD programs of substance, etc., he'd still invade Iraq on the basis that 9/11 'changed his thinking.'
Well, when you let fundraisers, speechwriters, and handlers change your thinking for you, I guess you have to be prepared for this. I Clinton could purjor himself on videotape and survive impeachment, I guess the mob that controls the 'Presidency' has free reign to do whatever they feel like. They can just make up any bullshit to justify it, and if they're not facing re-election, it can just be word-salad.

As usual no journalist has the balls (or knowledge, I guess) to then ask, “Well, why was there a meeting scheduled on the *morning* of September 11, 2001 (i.e. BEFORE the ‘mind altering events took place’) to discuss “Iraq”?
And now this fucker is being caught breaking the law and constitution he’s supposed to “protect”.
One day he denies it, the next day admits it, the next day he’s on the offense.
I think it’s time to offer the man a Peach; the world really doesn’t need another 3 years of this bullshit...
Throw peaches, I say unto ye citizens of the USA!
We'd love that. Rotten peaches all over his nice suit. And then jail.
'word salad' :-) funny.
I'm not defending George II, but consider a few things before offering him a piece of Impeach Pie:
-The Congressional resolution for regime change in Iraq goes back to 1998.
-W. & Co. had a boner for Iraq going back to before 2000, so it's no surprise they'd have meetings about Iraq. Which, in some respects, was one of the few examples you can show that they were paying attention to anything at all.
-Bill Clinton committed perjored himself in a sworn depostion on video as a sitting President and survived Impeachment without a party majority in the Senate. I think that effectively negated the mechanism for removing a President by such means. As of 1999, it basically ceased to matter what misconduct a President engaged in, it is just not possible to get an Impeachment done.
-Would you really rather have President Cheney? And would it make a difference, really, since the same goon-squad would be calling the shots and writing the speeches?

Over a bullshit sex scandal.
Jussssssst a bit different than illegally taping phones.
Just a lil’ bit.

Probably. A bullet from a battalion of guns would work just as well.

Gotta love the Illusion of Democracy…
-Would you really rather have President Cheney?
Well, for all intensive purposes Cheney _is_ president; the only legacy this administration will leave behind, if it ever truly goes away, will be the Iraq “war”. This was Cheney’s puppy more than anything, and he is the one that basically ‘declared’ the war. The day after the NY Times and Washington Post printed some big names hesitant toward an invasion Tricky Dick calls an unauthorised conference and reads an unauthorised report: “There is no doubt SH has weapons of mass destruction…”
Cue the bombs.
There is also “no doubt” Cheney should be in jail, but that’s another story…
And would it make a difference, really, since the same goon-squad would be calling the shots and writing the speeches?
Well, it would be a bit nice to see Americans have a small amount of balls and actually stand up for something…or maybe the answer _is_ just to ruin ones’ own neighborhoods and blow up cars…
