I completely agree with commenter number one.

yeah he saw a lot with his own two eyes?? it looked like it was dark out the dumb f@#k doesn't even seem to know night from day...

Who will be the last man to die for a lie? - John Kerry at the Congressional hearings on Vietnam

I doubt there were many of the people who lived there out in the middle of the night just strolling around outside the airbase. Our prez wouldn't must make up shit to say would he?

Come on, this is a guy who can barely manage to muddle through a speech in front of a pre-screened audience.

He thinks going away for six months and swinging by for a photo-op constitutes progress, and somehow, he's not trudging through the mud and debris left in the wake of ... of that ... of ... of ... that really big storm.

Funny, but are you missing the big picture (or more correctly, the extremely small picture)? Experiencing the seemingly separateness of things, say John Stewart,(or even Bush himself) and yourself, the viewer, as two different entities is deceptive, when in fact we and everything in the universe are all a bunch of swirling tornados of molecules and atoms, and, if you really want to get down, quarks and their various attracting/repelling strong/weak forces, running into each other and giving the false reading of separate “things”, keeping in mind that none of this would be possible if it weren’t for the uncertainty principle which forced the relative ordered and unified Big Bang to fly apart and then coalesce into the objects we see today, you know, galaxies, stars, planets, people, and pints of lager. It’s the third law of thermodynamics and you just can’t drive around it, nor does it respond to “WTF!”! Instead of everything everywhere flying apart at faster and faster rates of speed, just like you would assume when a uniform singularity like the universe before the big bang would be like, as it would result in a “uniform” explosion, the assumption is that there would be no anomalies to slow down enough that their gravity would instead cause random sections to collapse within themselves and form “things”. But I’m getting way ahead of myself here. We’re all illusory parts off the same thing. And some of those parts have a fake Texas accent and are criminally stupid. And so can babble on (Babylon?) incessantly and confuse at even greater levels.

C and L, another video you gotta get is the one of Feingold today questioning Petraeus and Crocker. You can find it at Kos. Damn, Feingold is like good wine, he just keeps getting better and better. God, we need him as our president!

pissed off patricia @ 4:

I completely agree with commenter number one.

In the clip, Stewart is being ridiculously facetious. He said it dreamily, at that - as though he admires a man who can envision such broad, beautiful, harmonious futures. (Just in case that wasn't clear!)

This is what passes for "news" at CNN:

Breaking News: President Bush will announce this week plans to cut U.S. troop numbers in Iraq by about 30,000 by next summer, The Associated Press reports quoting unnamed officials.

Fantastic -- that will leave "only" 142,000 troopers left fighting Busholini's war of choice.

Love Jon Stewart but doesn't it seem like his 'correspondents' all have pretty much the same shtick lately?

Dr Acula, I just got that email from cnn too. I just started laughing because even Petraeus wouldn't say that for certain that could happen. I thought cowboy prez was going to listen to the generals report, not preempt him.

...more like a wet dreamer.

boosh just went there to get some really primo hash.

This photo-op is very similiar to his phot-op in New Orleans, post Hurricane Katrina.

we're way overdue for burger king cuba mugs too.

Maybe it wasn't really Bush who visited Iraq. Maybe it was one of his doubles. Like Sadam did.

You know,, I think it is funny as hell how when Hussein was in power he would go out among his people, and be surrounded by thousands of Iraqis which had machine guns and supposedly hated him without fear, yet bush when he visits the US troops, the ones chosen for the photo ops aren't allowed to carry weapons around him,, not even the officers. Thats funny.

arroyo @ 37:

Again, why did 52% of American voters vote for this president in 2004?

With electronic voting one is never sure 52% of amerikans ever did.

I saw the Stewart clip of our preznit. As he described "progress" in Anbar, he looked in pain, like his shorts were too tight, or Rove was giving him the joy buzzer. Pathetic.

Very well said, Carl - but "Bush is a dumb shit" is more concise.
