- tehbored, on 11/15/2007, -9/+202"The advancement of liberty" is his greatest success? Wtf?
- dillyhoo, on 11/15/2007, -5/+179He didn't. He's just being an arrogant narcissistic ***** about his presidency, while the submitter's just being an ***** using fake quotes to lure blog traffic. I'm being an ***** for complaining about a digg post when I took the time to read the article and comment. It's just a big long chain of *****, really.
- PiGuy, on 11/15/2007, -10/+162Where does he say "I never didn't made any error"?
- fredjoe, on 11/15/2007, -7/+97Can one person be any more brain dead? Does anyone remember seeing that video of GW being interview when he was running in Texas? How semi-intelligent he sounded. He has to have a brain condition.
- eaterofpies, on 11/15/2007, -6/+94he read three books on washington? someone should remind him picture books don't count.
- Roger, on 11/15/2007, -9/+79Good job electing him. Twice.
- Mast3rDigg3r, on 11/15/2007, -4/+60He probably had trouble with it because he couldn't decide which error was his greatest. It's kind of a trick question.
- Dumbledorito, on 11/15/2007, -2/+51I've never seen Liberty advance so much before. It's advancing towards a pit full of snakes and poison spikes, but damn if she isn't running faster than ever.
- Berkana, on 11/15/2007, -1/+47Poor public speaking is one thing, but a consistent pattern of horribly embarrassing your nation every time you open your mouth in front of a camera is another thing entirely.
Forget about his public speaking for a second; his idiotic policies and disastrous record of decisions are enough to show him an idiot. - inactive, on 11/15/2007, -3/+38to his credit he meant to do all of the bad ***** that he has done - it wasn't an accident
- thailand1972, on 11/15/2007, -2/+34Why did the submitter make up a quote that Bush DIDN'T say when there's hundreds of funnier quotes he actually said?
- pistonhonda, on 11/15/2007, -5/+33The advancement of whose liberty, George? The government's?
- RollFizzlebeef, on 11/15/2007, -11/+38I can't stand Bush either, but I'm burying this for the fake quote in the headline.
- Iriel, on 11/15/2007, -10/+33That has got to be the 9th stupidest justification I've ever heard. Let me see if I get this right: "As a president, it is his job to install military bases in foreign nations to secure their resources for our own selfish gain", right?
...oh, I get it. You're his speech writer! I see what you did there (^_-) - DJetson, on 11/15/2007, -1/+24I'm going to give notque the benefit of the doubt on this one, and assume that his comments were not intended to imply his support of US foreign policy, but merely to point out that even though our foreign policy, to most, borders on being criminal in nature, the yardstick by which success is measured depends on who you are. Our administration has made it abundantly clear that their goal is to stay in Iraq, and to allow American Defense companies to reap the rewards of that occupation. Since, after six years, we are still there, despite popular opinion, if that was their goal, then they have been successful. Since my idea of a success involves the government working to benefit its citizenry it is pretty obvious that this administration has been a colossal failure.
- MetalliTooL, on 11/15/2007, -3/+25I'm burying this ***** because of the wrong use of quotes.
- jaskerzada, on 11/15/2007, -1/+20He's saying it was a success from the military industrial complex' perspective. Billions of your tax dollars were given in the way of weaponry and equipment during Vietnam just as it is today with Iraq.
- Hayaemsay, on 11/15/2007, -2/+21We do, we just don't like it.
- brickbat, on 11/15/2007, -0/+18Liberty is "The President of The United States of America being able to do whatever he wants."
- notque, on 11/15/2007, -0/+17I do not support US foreign policy at all. Far from it, I believe rightly that it's the supreme war crime of aggression as stated clearly by the Nuremberg trials.
That is exactly what I'm saying. I am talking about Success from the aspect of Policy planners. Not us, the general population. If you want to understand how policy planners operate, you have to know what their goals are.
Vietnam and Iraq are both successes as far as it concerns policy planners. - inactive, on 11/15/2007, -5/+22LOLOLOLOL
he read 3 books on Washington, good job! u get a cookie! - jaskerzada, on 11/15/2007, -0/+17It was a success for the military industrial complex which was awarded huge contracts. Boeing was going bankrupt in '63. But many helicopters were sold as a result of the conflict. A success from their perspective.
- walt100, on 11/15/2007, -4/+21Buried for inaccurate headline. With all the complaints about Bush, Fox News, et al, how does making up quotes help make your point?
- GuZ2k7, on 11/15/2007, -4/+20America - ***** YEAH!!
- mwosh, on 11/15/2007, -1/+17Yeah, its called cocaine.
- notque, on 11/15/2007, -0/+16Oh, and I'm not saying it wasn't a "National Embarrassment"
It was certainly both. Just as Iraq is both now as well. - RonBurgundy76, on 11/15/2007, -3/+19All you people burying him are completely missing the whooshing sound of his post as it goes flying by over your heads.
- notque, on 11/15/2007, -0/+15I'm not alone, Noam Chomsky and John Perkins have written/said it as well.
- notque, on 11/15/2007, -0/+15Just as Noam Chomsky, and John Perkins do as well. Read confessions of an economic hitman. Read Howard Zinn. Read Noam Chomsky. It isn't difficult to understand the point of view of planners.
If you are afraid of those authors, read Kissenger. His own words. Go out and buy a work of his own papers. Really read and understand him. - Gogara, on 11/15/2007, -5/+19@Roger: I lol'd. You really, truly think we elected him? Some of us did. But not enough to put him into power. That's where Ohio comes in.
- dillyhoo, on 11/15/2007, -0/+14Touche, Mr. Swoop
- inactive, on 11/15/2007, -8/+21why is this guy still allowed to run our *****?
- notque, on 11/15/2007, -3/+16That is his job. His job is to increase the sphere of American influence, stop any threat of democracy developing, and making countries as ripe as possible for corporate control of vital and profitable resources.
What of that doesn't make sense to you? - DAaaMan64, on 11/15/2007, -0/+13ya except he doesn't even say that line.
- jaewon223, on 11/15/2007, -1/+13fool me once shame on you, fool me you can't get fooled again!!!
- doctorfungi, on 11/15/2007, -4/+16Wait, take that back. It turns out the submitter was being a deceitful ***** and misquoting the President.
- bowens44, on 11/15/2007, -2/+13"Success, there's been a lot." ?????//
I honestly can not think of a single success from this administration unless he considers the castration of the Constitution a success. - Berkana, on 11/15/2007, -1/+12People forget what "Liberty" and "Freedom" mean and only remember vaguely that it is something good. Remember: China's People's "Liberation" Army crushed the student protests at Tienanmen Square. North Korea, the world's most totalitarian regime, is officially called "The Democratic People's Republic of Korea". It is the greatest irony that oppression can cloak itself with the name of Liberty and fool so many.
- orlyfactor, on 11/15/2007, -0/+11I'm surrounded by *****!
- requiemtower, on 11/15/2007, -5/+16Didn't vote for him, so my hands are clean.
- bigronpaulfan, on 11/15/2007, -1/+12I can't believe he said that. Takes alot of audacity to site in front of a national audience and say that. People see right through it.
- rz8472, on 11/15/2007, -0/+11The amazing thing is that democracies have liberalized in Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, and Indonesia WHILE the Iraq War seems to be giving democracy such a bad name - as an established democracy has illegally invaded another country, and a fledgling 'democracy' is corrupt and totally ineffectual.
People will eventually realize what kind of political system they want without us forcing it through them at gunpoint. - SquigglyP, on 11/15/2007, -1/+11and you never didn't read the article, either.
- notque, on 11/15/2007, -0/+10You should defend the words that you despise. If you don't, you are not for free speech, and should be.
- Dumbledorito, on 11/15/2007, -0/+10What day is it?
- doctorfungi, on 11/15/2007, -9/+19There should be a grammar test that needs to be passed before you can run for President.
- notque, on 11/15/2007, -2/+12Again, the question is, Who has he failed?
He was hired by corporations to serve a job function. The corporations told you which candidate to vote for, which of them had a nicer smile, focused on certain candidates.
You followed the corporations insistence considering it your opinion and not the one they told you to have. You repeated it to others giving the corporations reasons for why what you were saying was truthful or mattered.
He's been about 90-95% successful by what he was really hired for.
Want to know some of his failures?
Not dismantling social security.
Not making health care completely privatized.
He also could use to make the deficit worse.
Well. Why would those things be valuable to corporations? Why would making the debt worse get rid of things like social security?
And how could you figure these things out on your own. Obviously I'm a crazy nut, but let's say you wanted to research what I was saying. How would you do that? What do you think you would find? - cphelps, on 11/15/2007, -4/+14As much as I dislike bush I have to digg you down and call everyone who dugg you up a moron, because he didn't say that in the video in the link and you clearly didn't read the article associated with the video or watch any of the video.
- notque, on 11/15/2007, -4/+14If you didn't understand it, I suggest you read it again and ask questions on what you don't understand.
