Bring It On, Mr. President!

One Democrat presidential candidate even said that it sounded more like a comment from a gang leader than the President of the United States.

In defense of the Democrats, it was only Al Sharpton.

[finnman69]

DITTO.

Screw the lily livered pu**ies who scream, oh the President can't talk like that. It's because of President's who did not talk like that as the reason forthe current state of tension and terrorism.

[Maria S]

"Bring 'em on!"

Sure beats "Ah did not have..." etc.

[Night Hides Not]

Was this really an appropriate remark for the leader of the free world?

For the lurkers from DU who are licking their chops over this, allow me to offer a comparison:

Current president to the evil-doers of the world: "Bring it on!"

Previous president: "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky."

As Fox News would say...We report, YOU decide.

[Night Hides Not]

Nice job, you beat me by two minutes!

[jriemer]

Let's "Bring 'em on!"

[Digger]

It's a good thing for GW that 9-11 happened because w/o it he would be gone next yr. With it, the louder he yells the more Americans like. The downer here is that America will not be taken down externally but we will/are being destroyed internally & this president is another willing accomplice in the arena.

[cubreporter]

No kidding. "Bring it on" shows GUTS. It's about time we stand up again and speak that way. President Bush is a real man who is up for the fight if need be. He doesn't worry about polls and he isn't driven by others. He does what is right and thank God for that. We had enough of the other guy for 8 years. "Bring it On."

[justshe]

Hopefully you are not equating an 'external' terrorist...to President GW Bush as a 'domestic' terrorist.

[onyx]

You go girl!

Poll from that page:

Sen. Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) said that he supported an amendment to the Constitution that would ban any marriage in the United States except a union of a man and a woman. Would you support such an amendment?

Currently 60% say "NO". Get FReeping.

[1Old Pro]

Bush has these liberals' panties in a twist and I'm just sitting back and enjoying it.

[cwb]

I was kinda hoping for: "can't we all just get along." It's certainly nice to finally know what Democratic standard is for "unpresidential" behaviour. I was beginning to wonder just what it took to offend a Democrat. After all, getting a quicky with an intern while discussing troop movements in Bosnia with a senator certainly wasn't described as unpresidential behaviour...nor was letting a foreign dignatary (Arafat) wait around so Clinton could be serviced. But by golly, "bring it on" has the Democrats in a rage. It's just nice to know what their standard is for outrage.

[Wild Irish Rogue]

Bill Clinton's motto-" Bring a Thong ".George Bush has more manliness and gravitas in his thumbnail,than could be found in the entire Clinton administration.Bring It On!

"It's a good thing for GW that 9-11 happened because w/o it he would be gone next yr."

That's an assinine thing to say. Bush has cut more taxes than Reagan, armed pilots, killed the Kyoto Treaty, pulled out of the U.S. - CCCP Treaty, and has restored dignity and honor and respect to the White House.

No matter how much you whined and no matter what external events happened, Bush was always going to be re-elected. Also, see the post above for more Bush accomplishments.

NICE LIST! Worth hanging on to!

Really, really nice list. The ORIGINAL is good too.

The list with updates and corrections is here.

Although the list is being used for its intended purpose, it would probably be nice to give credit where credit is due....

[Old Sarge]

THANK YOU, FRiend, for this even-partial list.

What a resume'...
