- Sauwan, on 10/12/2007, -12/+136Rest of the world to 11 GOP members: Welcome to 2004.
- Cerialthriller, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4272% of Americans to Bush "You have no creditbility for 5 years"
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+38It doesn't end with Bush, over 90% of congress, needs to go as well.
They story "we where lied to" just doesn't cut it.
The so called USA PATRIOT ACT is unforgivable and in my mind an act of treason or just plain stupidity.
Both of which disqualify anyone that supported it, from service to this nation. - GoneSouth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+30" ... hammered the President on Iraq and the impact the war is having on the future of the Republican Party "
This sentence sums up what's wrong with this country today. 3,500+ of our loved ones are dead (not to mention 60K - 600K Iraqis), 450+ billion dollars drained from the treasury, and these partisan clowns are worried about how they're polling for the next election? - dgh1973, on 10/12/2007, -3/+32Wait, this implies that at some point in time he HAD credibility.
- mdfrake, on 10/12/2007, -2/+28A year from now Bush will claim than he never met with 11 GOP congressmen, and that no one ever told him he had lost credibility.
- purdueAl, on 10/12/2007, -2/+20Lost credibility? When did Bush ever have credibility
- m3t00, on 10/12/2007, -3/+20Click on "GOP's support of Bush, Iraq war waning": http://video.msn.com/v/us/fv/msnbc/fv.htm for Russert's report about Bush/GOP meeting.
YMMV, stupid msnbc video contraption...
Cheney is in Iraq telling them "Do not go on vacation!". while our troops are dying for your country.
Or the Congress may pull the plug and bring our troops home. I hope they do. I predict they will be home before Bush leaves office if not sooner. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1370%+ of Americans to GOP Congressmen: You've lost credibility. It's a little too late try and spin your way out of George's illegal war now.
- fefferid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12You hit the nail on the head!
- Nocturnalis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10Credibility means nothing now since his terms is almost up and he has already executed his agenda.
It should read 11 GOP congressman to Republican Americans We've lost Credibility - oreally, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11It was only a matter of time before at least a few Republicans did something. I mean for congressman, they're up every two years, they gotta make some room between Bush and themselves. Political opportunists even though they're right about the big issues.
- Lasthorseman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12No I think Bush has plenty of credibility. He has credibility with the parasitic, Satanic bent on fascistic world domination Illuminati. In that respect he is not "incompetent".
- YixilTesiphon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10There's an easy solution to that....don't digg them.
- Dadelus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9FTA...
"In this private meeting, the group, led by Reps. Mark Kirk (R-IL) and Charlie Dent (R-PA), hammered the President on Iraq and the impact the war is having on the future of the Republican Party."
Assuming the line above is accurate, there is something about it that bothers me.
Is anyone else bothered that they are complaining about the effect all of this is having on their political party rather than being concerned about the effect it is having on the country as a whole? If that is the case, then it would seem to me that their priorities are screwed up. - davesbrain, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Politicians make themselves so easy to despise.
- asaturn, on 10/12/2007, -10/+19so he is the most incompetent president ever, yet he is secretly planning a new world order behind everyone's back? yeah that makes a lot of sense. I bet he is actually a lizard person and is running an underground society of lizard people that will eventually take over.
- TheTorontonian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9DID something? Come on, all they have done is speak their minds. Which is part of the constitution. Doing something would be to start some sort of "spring cleaning." Sure they can't completely screw him over without committing political suicide. Both for themselves and the party as a whole.
But come on, 11 GOPs? That is hardly political in-fighting or standing up for the country. It sounds more like politically spinning themselves from under Bush. - dracflamloc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9I think they ought to be impeached, kicked out, and all bills that have passed since they were in office should be revoked. Any few good ones can always be added back in. At this point theres more bad ***** they've done than good/decent
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Damn, dude, he's only saying that if enough GOP Congresspeople vote against Bush, he will lose the 1/3 required to sustain a veto.
Don't go all drama queen about it. It's only a fact. - ricree, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Agreed. There needs to be some serious housecleaning in pretty much all branches of the government, but if I had to pick one it would be the legislature. Personally, I'd start with all of the people that have been hanging on to their posts for decades. Heck, my parents were barely born when some of these people started in congress. Is the country really so devoid of leadership that we need to keep putting in the same old people every time? I, for one, don't think so.
- phike, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Bravo to these 11 congressmen. It cannot be easy defying your party, even if it is to say the painfully obvious. Unfortunately, they are about 2 years late on the anti-war bandwagon, I cannot see what changed their mind in the last couple years unless thay just lifted their heads out of the sand.
- UnFriendlyFire, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10It's interesting that none of the MSM stories included the stunning quotes that were in the DrudgeReport story.
"My district is prepared for defeat. We need candor, we need honesty, Mr. President."
"I don't want to pass this off to another president. I don't want to pass this off, particularly, to a democratic president,"
"The word about the war and its progress cannot come from the White House or even you, Mr. President. There's no longer any credibility. It has to come from General Petraeus."
"How can our daughters and sons spill their blood while the Iraqi parliament goes on vacation? The president responded, "The Vice President is over there to tell them, 'Do not go on vacation.'"
More watering down of the truth by the MSM
http://www.digg.com/politics/Is_the_Replbican_party_feed_up_with_the_war_and_Bush - freesia, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Really--stop the presses! GOP members of Congress speak honestly to Bush!
- EntropyMan, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10shotline = banned. End of story. I'm sick of people claiming things they don't like are spam.
- djpinger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Yup, he missed the point.
Losing veto power = enough people in congress are going to vote for it so that it cannot be vetoed.
QUICK, EVERYBODY PANIC! - freesia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Did you watch the story? It's on MSNBC and included every one of those quotations you just listed.
- mike65134, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8@nixonrichard: You got it wrong: This is a comment on a digg story about a blog entry about a video of a video of a discussion about a meeting.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8In a story about "credibility," using the Drudge Report as a source doesn't help. Even when reporting about bad news for George, Drudge is not credible. He's lied or been wrong too many times.
- darny, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10The men running our country right now represent pure evil, the exploitation of millions just to fatten wallets. Impeachment is mild compared to what really needs to be done, Bush, Rumsfeld and Cheney are criminals, war criminals, on the order of Hitler and the African warlords committing genocide. Crimes against humanity for the betterment of the United States warrant impeachment and prison, crimes against humanity for personal advancement should be punishable by death (and I don't even support the death penalty). These men should be indicted, tried, and executed, end of story, just like Hussein was.
- syder, on 10/12/2007, -12/+18digg me down
- Oksoyep, on 10/12/2007, -12/+17The only way to protect the U.S. is to remove this treasonous president from office. Yes i said treason.. He is secretly forming a North American Union behind our backs. We will all be spending AMERO'S pretty soon if we dont wake up. Google "North American Union".
- jer2eydevil88, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6How can you lose something you never had?
- nirvanix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Didn't his old man do exactly the same thing - shucks, he was a 2 time cowboy boot wearing congressman from Texas . Well if it plays well in sticksville once, why not do it again? Amazing how the knuckle-draggers eat this ***** up. I think the twist that Dubya added was the hotline to Jesus thang. Nice touch though - appealed to the 'miracles occur in trailer parks' crowd.
- darny, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7I used to think that many Iraqis were being murdered to support our American lifestyle, but I've long since woken up from that and realized that many Iraqis (and US Servicemen) are being murdered to support the lifestyle of but a handful of Americans. It was like waking up from one nightmare into another, much much worse nightmare.
All things must pass, but this crap can't pass fast enough.
Fellow Americans, our reputation is spoiled, we are citizens of the evil empire. - naz37, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Speaking as someone from the European Union, a North American Union would be the best thing that could happen to the US. The US, Canada and Mexico could learn a lot from each other. it would also allow a major increase in trade. Considering the EU country's have gone from being in the most bloody war in history to forming the most successful international organization in history, in the space of a generation. I don't think it would be that difficult for u to accomplish. All you have to do is renounce this antiquated idea that the US is better then everyone else.
- mccrusc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Did you know a guy named "Ding Dong" wrote the Patriot Act? No lie. He has actually been considered as a republican choice for the supreme court before, I think he may actually be the devil. Did you know that only one senator even admits that they read the thing, he's the same guy who voted against it, alone, Russ Feingold.
- kurtwinter, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was to convince everyone he didn't exist - in the same way the greatest trick dubya pulls is to convince the world he's stupid.
Does anyone actually think he talks like that? He's a Connecticut Yankee, just like the rest of the family. Grew up in Kennebunkport, educated at Harvard and Yale. The Texas thing is just for show. He didn't even buy his ranch until at least 1999 or 2000. - Drexus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Sham! This is a setup. GWB knows he's going. But his gang can stay behind. Everyone knows the GOP grip works best behind the scenes. To have all the GOP members turn their back on GWB is a plan. The plan shows that all his buddies will blame GWB "We had to do what he said"... you see where this is going? It's like a killer being caught with the knife in his hand. "I'm mentally unstable, it's not the fault of my followers - they were only following orders... it's all my fault, leave them alone." ... Ya, leave them alone, they are all nice people who had no choice but to listen to GWB. The whole thing is so transparent.
- ichbinladen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5"Drag $100 bill through a trailer park, you never know what will turn up."
Oh wait, yes you do. Republicans. - jazh, on 10/12/2007, -5/+911 GOP Congressmen: Too worried about their own jobs.
- nexah3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I'm still mystified how he got re-elected.
Edit: Or even elected in the first place. - THE4IRON, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4@caponumen
Good point. Once again, "It wasn't my fault....so please keep putting me in office k thx." - swordedge, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8it's more then 11. All the republican candidates quote Reagan, not either of the Bushes.
- jlhoben, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Message to the GOP: you've lost credibility!
- t1m0j5, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5When Clinton lied, no one died
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7I'm not a Democrat, either. They are only marginally better than the GOP. ***** Bill Clinton, he is a right wing a-hole and so is his wife.
Millions of Americans were NEVER fooled into thinking Iraq was some sort of threat. It was always an absurd claim, regardless of who made it. It has always been as absurd as claiming Grenada was a threat. - m3t00, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3 Majority of politicians have only one priority. Get (re)elected. They will usually say and do whatever that requires. If they need millions of dollars for ad campaigns to win an election, they will take care of anyone who can hand them money or get them the votes.
Most major corporations give to both sides at all levels of government depending on which party seems to be doing what they like. When major contributors start switching sides, politicians start changing their tunes.
If millions of registered voters say they are not ***** happy with the president who happens to be Republican this year, money shifts to the Democrats.
If a billion dirt poor, non-voting citizens get pissed, ehh, not so much. - asaturn, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5I just noticed. those are weird glasses mostly because they look too small for his head.
- migbike, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's always easier to attack the messenger than deal with the facts. That's the only way these weak-minded people can justify their blind alliance to a letter next to someone's name.
