More rumblings of an idiot (A.K.A. George Bush)

Here are some choice ramblings of G.W. in his recent interview with Katie Couric. (in part can be seen here: http://movies.crooksandliars.com/CBS-Couric-Bush.mov)

One of the hardest parts of my job is to connect Iraq to the war on terror.

Uhhh.. I believe it, as I told you Osama Bin Laden believes it, but the American people have got to understand that a defeat in Iraq, in otherwords, if this government there fails, the terrorists will be emboldened, the radicals will topple moderate governments, I'm worried Katie, strongly worried about a world if we, i-i-i-if we lose , you know, our confidence and don’t help, uh, defeat this ideology, I’m worried that fifty years from now they’ll look back and say, “well how come Bush and everybody else didn’t see the fact that these that these group of people would use oil to effect our economy?”

I am not sure what point he was trying to make, I am however sure that he has been shown to be wrong regarding Iraq's connection to the terrorism (Osama specifically), the rest just does not make any sense.

In regards to Osama:

He’s always been dangerous, he’s always been dangerous.
And yeah we disrupted their safe have in Afghanistan and they want it back. Just like they want to have a safe haven in Iraq. That’s the struggle.

What struggle are we talking about here? It seems the struggle to capture bin Laden and put down the Taliban and Al Qaeda has been left for others.

And I thought the struggle in Iraq was about:

-First their involvement with 9/11 (proved not true)
-then, that Sadam was a threat to the U.S. because of his possession of WMD's (once again prov-en not true)
-and then it was finally about instilling a democracy in Iraq and securing the middle east while actually all that has happened is that

*the struggle in Iraq has recruited more individuals to Al Qaeda's cause
* it redirected the emphasis from Afghanistan to Iraq (allowing for the Taliban to make a resurgence)
*the worldwide perception of the US has been harmed

When asked, "why hasn't he been caught fiver years later" (in reference to Osama)

Yeah, no, that’s a good question, he’s hiding and we’re on the hunt…obviously.

One thing is for certain though, he’s not moving like he used to. Another thing is is he’s, you know, not communicating like he used to. And, and we’ll get him. It’s just a matter of time.

I'd be interested to see him explain the concerted effort that is going into this endeavour. If they are aware that he's not moving like he used to, does that not imply that they know where he might be?

The good news for the American people is that we’re, we made a lot of progress in dismantling Al Queda, the Al Queda structure that ordered the attacks not only on the U.S.S Cole and our embassies, but o-o-on 9/11.

Does anyone believe this?

We have huge oil reserves there genius. Way to do your research. And an american invasion of Canada would never happen.

Now can someone without verbal diarrhea respond?

someday pointless toughguy rhetoric will finally capture bin laden. until then, we need to focus on iraq....because we were attacked on 9/11....yes, i know its been admitted that saddam and al qaeda were never linked in any way, but we had to take him out of power because....see....we were attacked on 9/11....

It is pretty weird, that someone that so obviously lacks any logic (probably) or at least any language skills, can become so powerful to decide whichever country has to be attacked. Just sad.

dogma

Agree with everything but this

The US knew where Osama was for a very long time, and could probably follow him without to much trouble, now those sources and channels are probably gone/blocked/destroyed so it's logical that things have changed and it's harder to find him.

For the rest I agree, but what are you going to do? Nothing has really changed in the last years...

I think that 9/11 was a happy day for the government, they finally had an excuse to wage war. We have to understand that these days the government cannot simply declare war, first they must forge an excuse to justify the war. 9/11 was a good one, as was Pearl harbor a good excuse for the government to test their new weapon, the "atomic bomb" on our friends, the Japanese.

There was much more civilians murdered in Iraq invasion than in 9/11, but ironically and hypocritically only 9/11 is remembered in the news every year.

Now what calls my attention is this strong involvement that Bush family had with Bin Laden family. I recall from that Farenheit documentary from Michael Moore, and some other things I saw the news that there where strong relations beetween the two families. One time when the Bin Laden family was sued by something it was the Bush family specifically who helped them with lawyers and everything. There is other strong factors that connects both families but I don´t remember, perhaps someone knows. But I remember they were strong factors that suggested a close relation between them.

Deano's inconsistencies escape him.

And I don't want this thread to turn into a conspiracy thread that belongs in s eparate dumpster alltogether.

I'm more interested in what people have to say in regards to the above statements.

Again, your opinons on this are covered in the conspiracy forum. Say something on topic or please leave.

"-then, that Sadam was a threat to the U.S. because of his possession of WMD's (once again prov-en not true)"

So we didnt find over 1,500 gallons of chemicals that are easily capable of being put into warheads?

Yeah..no WMD's indeed.

There are so many fun drinking games with Bush's speeches.
