If you want to continue you Bush-ranting or GW Worshipin' threads, then fine

but show a little respect for those who have died

May they rest in peace

That's some real pretty words, NervousPete, but the thread is titled What next..Bush to blame for S.E. Asian quake/Tsunami ?

Man shoves me, I shove him back.
Now why should I give the neocons a free pass? Isn't that the press's job?

Actually I was wondering when the big lightbulb was going to flicker to life over Dubya's head and he was going to blame it all on Al Quaida.

Yeah, well, the sad part is, so many of the absurd things said about Bush are true. He's his own best lampoon.

I'm stuggling to find a reason as to why you took the time to post this. It would suggest that W has a history of making such claims, placing blame on a.Q. where it clearly does not apply.

Whining because Dubya is attracting criticisms for failed leadership is just pathetic.

We know that at these resorts which unfortunately exist in Islamic and other countries in South Asia, especially at Christmas, fornication and sexual perversion of all kinds are rampant. The fact that it happened at this particular time is a sign from Allah. It happened at Christmas when the fornicators and corrupt people from all over the world come to comit fornication and sexual oerversion

I heard a caller say this on a radio show, so I don't knowthe source but it certainly is makingthe rounds.
. Which just goes to show that there's no statement so insanely absurd that it won't find a receptive audience eventually.

We've got to invade Iraq because Al Quaida is working in cooperation with Saddamn Hussein. Iraq is supporting Al Quaida.

Doesn't this sound familiar? That's what Dubya's administration harped about in an attempt to drum up grass roots support for the invasion.

OBL + Iraq was NEVER the reason for invading Iraq. You ask if it sounded familiar, and I reply - Nope. Never heard it, sorry.

n_the_record_rep.pdf
And for your perusal, a lengthy report on the misleading statements in the public record made by the Bush admin about Iraq. Below is a brief exerpt:

"They (President Bush, Vice President Cheney, Secretary Rumsfeld, Secretary Powell, and National Security Advisor Rice) made 61 misleading statements about the strength of the Iraq-al Qaeda alliance in 52 public appearances.
For example:
• In a November 7, 2002, speech, President Bush stated: Saddam Hussein is “a threat because he is dealing with Al Qaida. . . . [A] true threat facing our country is that an Al Qaida-type network trained and armed by Saddam could attack America and not leave one fingerprint.”
• In his January 28, 2003, State of the Union address, President Bush stated: “Evidence from intelligence sources, secret communications, and statements by people now in custody reveal that Saddam Hussein aids and protects terrorists, including members of al Qaeda. Secretly, and without fingerprints, he could provide one of his hidden weapons to terrorists, or help them develop their own.”"

Whereas members of al Qaida, an organization bearing responsibility for attacks on the United States, its citizens, and interests, including the attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, are known to be in Iraq;
Whereas Iraq continues to aid and harbor other international terrorist organizations, including organizations that threaten the lives and safety of American citizens;
Whereas the attacks on the United States of September 11, 2001 underscored the gravity of the threat posed by the acquisition of weapons of mass destruction by international terrorist organizations;
Whereas Iraq's demonstrated capability and willingness to use weapons of mass destruction, the risk that the current Iraqi regime will either employ those weapons to launch a surprise attack against the United States or its Armed Forces or provide them to international terrorists who would do so, and the extreme magnitude of harm that would result to the United States and its citizens from such an attack, combine to justify action by the United States to defend itself;

Today, the gravest danger in the war on terror, the gravest danger facing America and the world, is outlaw regimes that seek and possess nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons. These regimes could use such weapons for blackmail, terror, and mass murder. They could also give or sell those weapons to terrorist allies, who would use them without the least hesitation

...

With nuclear arms or a full arsenal of chemical and biological weapons, Saddam Hussein could resume his ambitions of conquest in the Middle East and create deadly havoc in that region. And this Congress and the America people must recognize another threat. Evidence from intelligence sources, secret communications, and statements by people now in custody reveal that Saddam Hussein aids and protects terrorists, including members of al Qaeda. Secretly, and without fingerprints, he could provide one of his hidden weapons to terrorists, or help them develop their own.

Before September the 11th, many in the world believed that Saddam Hussein could be contained. But chemical agents, lethal viruses and shadowy terrorist networks are not easily contained. Imagine those 19 hijackers with other weapons and other plans -- this time armed by Saddam Hussein. It would take one vial, one canister, one crate slipped into this country to bring a day of horror like none we have ever known. We will do everything in our power to make sure that that day never comes. (Applause.)

Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised. This regime has already used weapons of mass destruction against Iraq's neighbors and against Iraq's people.

The regime has a history of reckless aggression in the Middle East. It has a deep hatred of America and our friends. And it has aided, trained and harbored terrorists, including operatives of al Qaeda.

The danger is clear: using chemical, biological or, one day, nuclear weapons, obtained with the help of Iraq, the terrorists could fulfill their stated ambitions and kill thousands or hundreds of thousands of innocent people in our country, or any other.
