But Back to Our Mendacious Leader


"See, the irony is that what they need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this shit, and it's over." [That's what the Mouse likes, straight talk from a straight thinking man. Forget it that it took 20 years to get Syria out of Lebanon and that our hero is inviting them back in.]

"I was not pleased that Hamas has refused to announce its desire to destroy Israel." [Yeah, that does sort of make you wonder what those guys are up to.]

"Those who enter the country illegally violate the law." [And ought to be persecuted to the full excrement of the law, too.]

"Americans should be prudent in their use of energy during the course of the next few weeks. Don't buy gas if you don't need it." [After this is over, buy gas whether you need it or not.]

"See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda." [Say again...?]

"It's in our country's interests to find those who would do harm to us and get them out of harm's way." [Keep this in mind on election day.]

"I'm going to spend a lot of time on Social Security. I enjoy it. I enjoy taking on the issue. I guess, it's the Mother in me." ["Mother" being only half a word.]

[And this one for those who -- by deciphering the Mouse's sometimes involuted prose -- have become masters of the art.] "Because the -- all which is on the table begins to address the big cost drivers. For example, how benefits are calculate, for example, is on the table; whether or not benefits rise based upon wage increases or price increases. There's a series of parts of the formula that are being considered. And when you couple that, those different cost drivers, affecting those -- changing those with personal accounts, the idea is to get what has been promised more likely to be -- or closer delivered to what has been promised. Does that make any sense to you? It's kind of muddled. Look, there's a series of things that cause the -- like, for example, benefits are calculated based upon the increase of wages, as opposed to the increase of prices. Some have suggested that we calculate -- the benefits will rise based upon inflation, as opposed to wage increases. There is a reform that would help solve the red if that were put into effect. In other words, how fast benefits grow, how fast the promised benefits grow, if those -- if that growth is affected, it will help on the red."

Here is a chance for WWIII to break out, like in WWI. This isn't
something to blame Bush completely on. Bush may of not helped here, but this has been brewing for awhile, independent of Bush. With this going on, what do I see? Well, chances for individuals to score points one way or another, to bash America, or come out with these Zionist rule the world conspiracies (aka, it is all Israel's fault). Hezbollah and Hamas are thug organizations that put civilians at risk all the time, even in their attempt to defend themselves. Israel isn't innocent,that's for sure.



Time to call this what it is, a war between Israel and Hezbollah which
could grow to be a regional conflict. Currently Lebanon is once more a battlefield, and many are dying. Fault both sides in this,Bush is an idiot regardless.

How are you mouse?

Hi John A.How's it going man? I see the mouse has written about my favorite subject,the undaunting Bush!


Bush is like a loose cannon on a Man-o'-War, rolling from one side
of the ship to the other as the waves move the ship about. Sooner
or later he will go through the side and sink the ship. It's just
a matter of time. In other words, it's only a matter of time
before Bush's lack of direction screws things up royally for the
whole world.

The battle against Hezbollah also provides a means to heat up tensions with Iran and Syria. It won\t be long before we,Americans will invade Iran or Syria,just commen sense and Bush's record.Watch him on tv,his body language speaks for itself,he's digging in deeper and deeper.

Robin: Actually, I came within an inch of deleting this blog. While mildly entertaining, it is nonetheless an ad hoinem attack on a man who is essentially defenseless. I will henceforth make every attempt to stick to the issues and forget the man. In any case, I doubt seriously that he is calling the shots.

John (A): I trust that a white knight -- of unknown nationality -- will ride up to settle this matter, but have no illusions that the settlement will be anything but temporary. When religious fanaticism supervenes upon a land war, the prognosticators who augur peace are wishing and dreaming.
