In an astoundingly ignorant interview with The Politico's Mike Allen
Tuesday, President Bush insinuated that electing a Democrat in November
would lead to another attack on America, and revealed that he made the
ultimate sacrifice by giving up golf shortly after the start of the Iraq
War - the timing of which he lied about. Naturally, Keith ripped into him
tonight - with all the anger and passion you've come to expect from a
Special Comment - for continuing this despicable fear-mongering, and for
failing to understand what true sacrifice is.
Do your part in telling President Bush to "shut the hell up": Digg It!
"Mr. President," he was asked, "you haven't been golfing in recent
years.
Is that related to Iraq?
"Yes," began perhaps the most startling reply of this nightmarish blight
on our lives as Americans - on our history.
"It really is. I don't want some mom whose son may have recently died to
see the Commander-in-Chief playing golf. I feel I owe it to the families
to
be as - to be in solidarity as best as I can with them. And I think
playing
golf during a war just sends the wrong signal."
Golf, Sir?
Golf sends the wrong signal to the grieving families of our men and
women
butchered in Iraq?
Do you think these families, Mr. Bush - their lives blighted forever -
care about you playing golf?
Do you think, Sir, they care about you?
You, Mr. Bush, let their sons and daughters be killed.
Sir, to show your solidarity with them - you gave up golf?
Sir, to show your solidarity with them - you didn't give up your pursuit
of this insurance-scam, profiteering, morally and financially bankrupting
war.
Sir, to show your solidarity with them - you didn't even give up talking
about Iraq - a subject about which you have incessantly proved without
pause
or backwards glance, that you may literally be the least informed person
in
the world?
Sir, to show your solidarity with them, you didn't give up. your
4,000 dead Americans and your response. was to stop playing golf!
Golf.
Not "gulf" - golf.

hear shrub is giving up lobster too.
Well, not "giving up" giving up, but he's definitely not eating as much of
it.
Well, maybe just about as much really.
Ok OK. He's eating MORE lobster..but only because he feels so sad about
all
the needless death and destruction he's caused that he can't help thinking
about giving up lobster and he ended up kinda' obsessing on it. Could
happen
to anybody.
Who was it who said, "Shouldn't Bush be giving up the war for golf,
instead?" Great line!
