Live thread for President Bush's flight to the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln and his historic address to the nation tonight concerning Iraq.

[JusPasenThru]

Damn right. Those sailors really looked ticked off to me....

[edwin hubble]

"Thank us from Tennessee that took Gore's "homestate" away from him."

Yes, indeed.
Gore didn't lose in Florida. He lost the election in Tennesee. (and Arkansas).

[Fledermaus]

First, you are an unintelligent bloward. Try a paragraph between thoughts.

Second, you couldn't have pried those men and women on the USS Lincoln off that ship if you tried. If they had helicopter flights available straight back to their homes at the same time, they would have stayed to shake the hand of a CIC they respect and admire.

They are sick of people like you not protecting our country and are proud of the job they did. They'd follow Bush to hell and back if he asked.

How can a human living in America like you be SO CYNICAL and HATEFUL to even think of posting garbage like that?

Do yourself a favor and end your pitiful life now. You aren't going to make it with that evil eating you away.

Terilyn can't reply for a while. She's on a 'mission'. ROFL.

[El Gato]

GWB would not endanger our country for a cheap thrill.

Nothing all that dangerous about a neophyte, let alone an ex jet fighter pilot, taking the stick, as long as it's not done while low and slow. Speed is life and altitude can be traded for speed. MSNBC reported that he did indeed take the controls for a portion of the flight out. I'm sure not the takeoff and really sure not any part of the flyby or the trap.

[Miss Marple]

The carrier hasn't slowed down one iota for this visit.

The ship's store was out of film today...due to all the people who wanted to take pictures.

Your screen name indicates your general attitude...a large pocket of pus that needs to be poked!

[CIB-173RDABN]

Had a rought day did we? I am getting as much pleasure from the reaction of people like you as I am of the President being Commander in Chief.

[Lee Enfield]

Be fair, Clinton had red hands too.

[Samwise]

We gotta keep praying for this man, and for our nation.

Worth repeating.

[edwin hubble]

"...they don't need to be treated like a bunch of tools."

The sailors seemed pretty happy to me. And anyone else watching.
Is that what has you so upset?

[swheats]

Do you write for other sources other than FR?

Great job

[MEG33]

He clicked on the wrong board.DUuuuu Here he is!

[lanceboyle]

I know, DU booted me. I think I might be getting booted here as well. Such is the life of a wannabe curmudgeon. Tolerance levels seem higher here, regardless of what I read about the FREEP.

[longtermmemmory]

heck, remember the extremes the clintons had to go when making an appearance before soldiers. (he would never have gotten that "yeaha" at the begining.)

[Samwise]

Some night soon he's gonna blow and take about 4 city blocks with him.

Like the martians whose heads blew up when Gene Autry music was played. LOL

[Fracas]

You should take the advice of your screen name....you'd feel much better.

[Miss Marple]

Don't push our tolerance levels, buster.

[Grassontop]

Be fair, Clinton had red hands too.

Beating off would make anyones hands red, since clintoon was good at it in the oval office, the puke faced rat! Grasssontop

You don't know the Viking Kittens, do you?

[Anamensis]

Well, if your only goal in life is to offend everyone, you're sure to be crowned with success. That much is easy. Teenagers do it all the time.
