Once again Bush treats us to reasoning that would shock a 5th grader with its falaciousness and immaturity.
A common corn nodule in the verbal feces of the Cunt in Chief is his treating the war as though it were something imposed on him from without. Hence, his attitude is,
Um, no, Mr. Presicunt. YOU are the cause of this shitty war, not Al Quaeda, not Sadaam, muthafuckin’ YOU!
To Frank thanks for the intervention on my behalf. I’m cool. To Liberal, the backpedal was pretty funny. One of my best friends backpedals rather than apologizing.
Since everybody thought I was a boy I think everybody needs to apologize for that. 
Cite, please.
Wow, I like busting Liberal for being the world’s biggest shrieking drama queen and attention whore, but I thought he was actually being good this time.
So much for that.

Is W a Monty Python fan? Maybe he’s got the idea that the story of the King of Swamp Castle is an actual life lesson.
“. . . but the fourth one stayed up!”
We’ve heard this before. Don’t criticize the plan before it’s had a chance to fail, then don’t criticize it while it’s failing, then don’t criticize it a few years after it’s failed because it’s important that we don’t admit failure - and if we don’t admit failure, then we’ve succeeded. It’s called Supporting the Twits.

Look, all I’m asking is for your traitorous hippies to give me till January 2009. After that, I’ll pull them out if it’s not working.
Is that too much to ask?

Well, now I know how Kerry felt. It really was meant as a joke. If the right people had read it before the wrong people, it would have been responded to that way.
In any case, just to make it perfectly clear to you personally, I’m very sorry for a couple of reasons: (1) the responses to my post effectively derailed your thread at least momentarily — maybe people will let it go now; (2) I wrote things that made you appreciate intervention. I regret those things because I like you. I like your user name. I like your posts when I read them. And I liked your responses to my Poll in IMHO. You were one of the few who selected package, which I thought was a ballsy choice […pun alert…]. And you said that 1,000,000 was more aesthetically pleasing than 1. I love aesthetic interpretations.
I’m sorry. I apologize. Sincerely. From this, I’ll take the lesson that I’m to be allowed only minimal ambiguity. And that’s only fair. A reputation doesn’t arise out of whole cloth, and people are right to demand that a good one be earned.
Is OK. I laughed. And thanks 'n stuff.
In retrospect, I can kind of see how it was meant as a joke. Ambiguity is fine in speech, but without any nonverbal communication it becomes very dangerous online. I think a smiley would have helped.
“OK, here’s the plan: we tie a bowling ball to your dick with barb wire, throw you into the La Brea Tar Pit, you snag a mammoth skeleton and swim up to the surface…”
“But, sir, that won’t work, there’s no way…”
“What!? Aren’t you going to at least give it a chance to work?”
“Well, if its going to be you doing the diving, I guess, maybe…”
“Can’t. Not allowed. I’m the decider. Gotta stay here, decide stuff…”
Does anyone actually even know what “the plan” is? Has Bush described it to anyone? Maybe he doesn’t know what it is himself.
The plan is,….uh sorry, but you don’t have high enough clearance.
Come on, we all know The President used to play Risk. If he starts moving troops through Australia we know he’s trying to consolidate power. *
I thought “the plan” was the same thing as “the surge.”
Maybe he means “serge”. Let’s at least wait to see if it’s a sewing plan.
You shouldn’t criticize the Plan without giving it a chance to work.
I’m beginning to think that “the Plan,” ultimately, is to keep the nation in a continual state of warfare in order to redirect all real power to the Executive Branch.
But that’s just the traitorous hippie in me talking.
The plan is roughly as follows:
Add 21,500 troops to Iraq
???
Declare Victory!
Maliki supposedly has said that the real problem is that Iraqi forces just don’t have enough equipment to do the job, and if they had it, they could take care of everything without any help from us Americans. Obviously, the thing we need to do, then is simply give the Iraqis a bunch of guns and ammo and head home.
