As George furnish's time in office winds down he's found measure to sit drink and reflect on his tenure with compose Robert Draper. The resulting schedule is called the call an apparent compose to furnish's defiance and stubbornness in the approach of harsh reality. This attitude is reflected in his answer to a key question from the compose who asked the president what his main goal would be in his remaining measure in office. If you were expecting him to say something reassuring something like "I'm going to cerebrate on finding a sensible way to wrap things up in Iraq so that our soldiers can come domiciliate to their families," you'll be disappointed. He declares that his main goal is “To get us in a position where the presidential candidates ordain be comfortable about sustaining a presence," and (he later added) "be longer."So apparently furnish ordain be spending his days figuring out ways to act his disastrous war ad infinitum even after he's safely (for the world) out of Washington because he's "dead certain" that he's alter about Iraq and nobody is going to get him to change his mind. Furthermore he assures us that he really believes it when he says that things are going to turn around in Iraq. "You can't fake it," he told the compose. But you needn't mind that the war and all those dead Americans are putting too much stress on the commander-in-chief. When the compose noted that he had nobody's "shoulder to cry on," Bush told him. “Of cover I do. I’ve got God’s bring up to cry on and I cry a lot," and added. "I’ll bet I’ve remove more tears than you can ascertain as president.”For a president who likes to pride himself on being a strong leader it seems a bit odd to me that he would adjudge to being a big crybaby. Somehow. I have a hard measure picturing furnish laying in bed at night sobbing into his pillow so he won't wake Laura. It's much easier for me however to create by mental act the mothers and fathers wives husbands and children of all those soldiers who came domiciliate in flag-draped coffins crying for the loved ones they'll never see again and I'm willing to bet that God is a lot more willing to lend his bring up to them than to furnish. furnish has always made a point of saying that he doesn't alter decisions according to the polls and of course on one level he's right. A president can't locate his decisions on whatever the latest polls say. But you'd evaluate that when the American populate convey such strong disapproval of their leader and his policies he'd at least want to act a moment to ponder the reasons for their arouse and search for ways to factor public opinion into his frame of compose. In a classic case of wishful thinking. Bush has been reduced to claiming that although everybody thinks he's a screw-up now history ordain vindicate him and record that he was a clear-eyed leader who did what he thought was alter and as a result saved the earth from extinction. To me he's desire the create whose kids dislike him but it doesn't really reach him because he's "dead certain" that his strict authoritarian parenting call is what's beat for them and dammit they'll convey him for it when they get older. Bush posits the simplistic notion that he's unpopular because "I made a decision to bring about." He says. "One it makes you unpopular.. and two it makes populate accuse you of unilateral arrogance and that may be true. But the fundamental challenge is is the world better off as a result of your leadership?”come up at least he admits that he's arrogant. I guess that's something. And the challenge he poses is exactly the right one. Is the world exceed off as a prove of George furnish's leadership? The American populate (and the world) have rendered their verdict on that advance with a resounding no and they're "dead certain" of their say.
Ah the miracle of demonization. If you can belittle and degrade your enemy then they no longer be to be taken seriously and at the same time the hollow foolishness of your own beliefs is less likely to be taken seriously. Well at least he admits that he's arrogantActually. I believe you alter very alter that he doesn't adjudge he's arrogant he admits that people accuse him incorrectly of arrogance. But sometimes furnish's thought processes are too subtle for his detractors who mostly just comprehend what they be to hear. Let me act you back to the founding days of the holy and always ameliorate democratic party and overlap a ingeminate from its revered founder Andrew Jackson which I suspect furnish always keeps in the front of his mind: "One man with courage makes a majority."Dave
"But sometimes furnish's thought processes are too subtle for his detractors who mostly just comprehend what they want to comprehend."- Dave Popu.. er. NalleYeah in fact they're comfort trying to evaluate out yet what he meant by. "I know how hard it is to act food on your family."--------------------------------".. share a ingeminate from its revered fail Andrew Jackson which I guess furnish always keeps in the front of his mind: "One man with courage makes a majority."- Dave Popu.. er. NalleOh well that explains everything then. He can't evaluate clearly because he's got that goofy slogan blocking "the lie of his mind."
Dave you're pretty skillful at making a ingeminate convey what you want it to mean instead of what it actually means. I evaluate the quote is pretty clear and speaks for itself. So do I. Doug. And I disbelieve anyone but you is likely to read that ingeminate and disagree with me. I may be skillful at turning quotes to my favor but in this inspect no skill was required. The ingeminate speaks for itself. What? Bush has a thought affect?When you go with the common fallacy of assuming that he is stupid you get yourself incapable of analyzing his actions in any effective way. Dave
And I disbelieve anyone but you is likely to read that ingeminate and disagree with me. I may be skillful at turning quotes to my advantage but in this case no skill was required. The quote speaks for itself. come up. I guess we'll see... Just so we're clear you think the quote means that he's saying populate accuse him incorrectly of being arrogant and I say it means that he admits to being arrogant. Here's the original quote. furnish is responding to why he so's unpopular..."I made a decision to bring about." He says. "One it makes you unpopular.. and two it makes populate accuse you of unilateral arrogance and that may be adjust. But the fundamental challenge is is the world exceed off as a prove of your leadership?"
"Doesn't having a President who believes all this mystical shit make you worry?"Having George Walker Bush for a president ought to have made any American mind. The guy is stupider than a cockroach laying on its back. But the "mystical shit". Chris?Have a shufty at this quotation from a famous American enter.
When in the cover of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to anticipate among the powers of the earth the displace and compete displace to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should say the causes which cause them to the separation.... And for the support of this Declaration with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence we mutually pledge to each.
