“There’s what they call “actionable intelligence,” to which our military has responded on a quick basis is improving.” — George orWell Bush, Washington, D.C., December 15th, 2003
The stupid stuff Dumbya says simply cannot be made up. Fortunately, in 36 days it will be January 20th, 2009 – The End Of An Error.
“This (credit market) thaw — took a while to thaw, it’s going to take a while to unthaw.”
“I have heard that people’s attitudes are beginning to change, from a period of intense concerns — and I would call it near panic — to being more relaxed.” –George orWell Bush, Alexandria, Louisiana, October 20th, 2008
People are going to be a lot more relaxed in 49 days, on January 20th, 2009 – The End Of An Error.

Q Thank you, Mr. President. Do you think that Russia is applying undue pressure and threats to accomplish its goals at NATO on missile defense and stopping the Membership Action Plans of Ukraine and Georgia? And President Yushchenko, what do you think of Moscow’s tactics?
President Dumbya: Just because there was a bunch of, you know, Soviet-era flags in the street yesterday doesn’t — you shouldn’t read anything into that. I — look, this is an interesting debate that’s taking place, and it’s — you know, as every nation has told me, Russia will not have a veto over what happens in Bucharest, and I take their word for it. And that’s the right policy to have. – Kyiv, Ukraine, April 1st, 2008(White House)
Lately, it’s not “Soviet-era flags in the street” — it’s RUSSIAN TANKS. And it’s fitting that Boy Blunder uttered this tripe on April Fools Day — no greater of a fool has entered the White House than The Texas Fence Post Turtle. Fortunately there’s only 153 days until Dumbya exits literally and figurtively for good, as January 20th, 2009 will be The End Of An Error.

Ladies and Gentlemen, you have to read the whole thing, to get the point:
“My only point to you is, is that we’re in constant contact with people on the ground to help make sure that we save lives. Now that the water is beginning to recede, the question is, how do we help with the recovery? And Secretary Chertoff briefed me on plans, particularly when it comes to housing. A lot of people are going to be wondering, is there short-term help for housing? And there is, and we’ll provide that help.
Secondly, what’s going to happen in the long term to the homes? And so Michael is going to set up a housing task force similar to the kind we set up in California for the wildfires, to work with state and local authorities to have an orderly strategy to help people get back in their homes.
I fully understand people are upset when they lose their home. A person’s home is their most valued possession. And we want to work with state and local folks to have a clear strategy to help people find — get back into a place that — where they can live.
Secondly, we’re worried about farmers and ranchers. The country that’s being affected by these floods has got a lot of farm country, a lot of people raising livestock. And the Secretary of Agriculture has briefed me on the conditions — and we’re still assessing how widespread the damage is on the farmlands — and assures me that his team is in place to help farmers and ranchers with the federal aid available.
And finally, Director Nussle is here from the Budget Office. We’ve got what we called a Disaster Relief Fund. There’s enough money in that fund to take care of this disaster. But what we’re concerned about is future disasters this year. And therefore, we’re going to work with the Congress. Jim Nussle is going to go up to work with Congress to get enough money in the upcoming supplemental to make sure that fund is — has got enough money to deal with a potential disaster, another disaster this year.” – George orWell Bush, Oval Office, June 17th, 2008
WOW!!! “only one point”, with a “secondly”, and another “secondly”, and a “finally” to boot?
Well, the point is, Dumbya shoulda been booted long ago. He wasn’t, but in 156 days he’ll be gone, and January 20th, 2009 will be The End Of An Error.

“But I also made it clear to (Vladimir Putin) that it’s important to think beyond the old days of when we had the concept that if we blew each other up, the world would be safe.” – George orWell Bush, May 1, 2001
“Russia is no longer our enemy and therefore we shouldn’t be locked into a Cold War mentality that says we keep the peace by blowing each other up. In my attitude, that’s old, that’s tired, that’s stale.” – George orWell Bush, Des Moines, Iowa, June 8, 2001
Now, why are the above two “Bushisms – Adventures In BushSpeak” notable?
Because, speaking on the Russia-Georgia conflict, Boy Blunder just said this:
“Bullying and intimindation are not acceptable ways to conduct foreign policy in the 21st century.” – George orWell Bush, August 15th, 2008
Which, of course, brings us to this Bushism, uttered two years ago, to the day:
“The United States of America is engaged in a war against an extremist group of folks.” — George orWell Bush, McLean, Va., Aug. 15, 2006
Say, Dumbya? That “extremist group of folks”?
That group is also known as “Boy Blunder And The Plunderers”, and January 20th, 2009 will be The End Of An Error.

Today’s a Triple Dose Of Dumbya Day!
“The trial lawyers are very politically powerful. But here in Texas we took them on and got some good medical malpractice.”
“There may be some tough times here in America. But this country has gone through tough times before, and we’re going to do it again.”
“I promise you I will listen to what has been said here, even though I wasn’t here.”
– George aWol Bush, speaking at the President’s Economic Forum in Waco, Texas, Aug. 13, 2002
Well, let’s toss in another one – Dumbya was on a roll….
“Tommy (Thompson) is a good listener, and he’s a pretty good actor, too.” -George aWol Bush, apparently confusing his Health and Human Services secretary with Sen. Fred Thompson, Waco, Texas, Aug. 13, 2002
Yes, Boy Blunder was on a roll, that day in Waco. He was on a roll before, and since, too. But in 159 days, this misAdministration will be in the history books – as will the Adventures In BushSpeak, and January 20th, 2009 will be The End Of An Error.

“The legislature’s job is to write law. It’s the executive branch’s job to interpret law.” — George aWol Bush, Austin, Texas, Nov. 22, 2000
Hard to believe that the Supreme Court appointed Dumbya, when Dumbya obviously didn’t (and, for that matter, still doesn’t) have a clue about how government is actually supposed to function. The misAdministration Of Bush The Lesser is the epitome of “Republicans run on the platform “Government doesn’t work”; then they get elected and prove it.”
Another example of Boy Blunder demonstrating his disdain for the Rule Of Law was the nomination of Harriet Miers to the Supreme court; an appointment that managed to offend usually unoffendable Republican Senators.
Boy Blunder also demonstrated his disdain for the Rule Of Law with his reliance on Alberto Gonzales’s legal insanity guidance. Gonzo’s gonzo approach to law also caused some Republican Senators – especially Senator Arlen Specter – to become offended. For one example, watch and listen here:
Unfortunately, these Republicans couldn’t manage to become anything more than offended. It’s a shame they couldn’t manage to actually “do something” to prevent Boy Blunder And The Plunderers from running roughshod over The Rule Of Law and our Constitution.
Some Law Schools were offended enough, that they cancelled ‘Berto Gonzo’s scheduled addresses, and scheduled someone else. Here’s once such instance, that’s worth the read.
Slowly, the clock ticks. In five months and 13 days it will be January 20th, 2009 – The End Of An Error.
