IMHO, that has to be the most glaring political gaffe since Clinton said
Dubya and Co. obviously can NOT believe the torch and pitchfork reaction this blunder has caused within the GOP.
You know -- you just may be right about the Clinton "I-did-not-have-sex..." analogy. I was stunned then by Bubba's stupidity, and I am just as stunned now by Dubya's.
Yep old dumb dubya has spent his entire political career beating and in the case of war, killing or dethroning those that were "stunned" at his stupidity. You should be so stupid.
I don't get it. Bush is driven by a puppetmaster, he's in bed with every company in the world, he's driven by polls. Which is it? The man KNEW the response. He KNEW it in 1999, he KNEW it in 2001 when he withdrew it after 9/11 and he KNEW it days before his speech because it was leaked and talked about endlessly by every serious conservative in the country.
He KNEW it would not be liked by people in his party. Maybe -- just MAYBE the man sticks to what he believes in and actually has his OWN principles.
