For me he's just a modern day Hitler without the madness - which still is an extremely dangerous package.

especially as all he did was replace the madness with stupidity. Or perhaps that's giving him too much credit. If he is stupid, it's not really his fault. However, if he isn't stupid...

Well, yeah. That's the way it's done overseas. How many evil dictators has the United States been under, hmm? Hmm?

Other than the present one you mean?

I've no idea, as we don't know how often oil executives change.

Bush got a laugh at the latest debate when he scoffed at Kerry's contention that he had received $84 from "a timber company." Said Bush, "I own a timber company? That's news to me."

In fact, according to his 2003 financial disclosure form, Bush does own part interest in "LSTF, LLC", a limited-liability company organized "for the purpose of the production of trees for commercial sales."
So Bush was wrong to suggest that he doesn't have ownership of a timber company. And Kerry was correct in saying that Bush's definition of "small business" is so broad that Bush himself would have qualified as a "small business" in 2001 by virtue of the $84 in business income.

yeah, that's all well and good Fods, but..

he wouldn't have had the attention span to have finished reading your post there, thus you would have been in the wrong :)

[fodders]

I sit corrected. :P

[Goat]

[Scuba Steve]

I think that part of the debate showed how much of a jackass Bush was. That and the part when he attacked the moderator.

[Piezo]

I read this which is a pretty good read about how Bush isn't a conservative in any respect I found from none other than http://www.johnkerryisadouchebagbutimvotingforhimanyway.com/

If that's about Grover Cleveland and the Federal Reserve bank, I read an article somewhere about that but I don't remember where it was.

But 100 years ago, were they capable of doing the damage being done now?

I think it showed he had a sense of humor? He's human just like the rest of us.

Yes, but not quite to the extent we have reached.

Ralphis: the president is not supposed to be a human, he is supposed to be a puppet.

I think 'walking turd' describes him better.

I didn't find that, or anythign else he laughed at in the last two debates to be amusing at all. In fact, I find it very creepy that he was chuckling at such important issues.

[Scuba Steve]

In debates George has a significant disadvantage. He's used to making a little joke while pandering to an audience of supporters and getting a roar of laughter. In a debate, you'll notice when he says something that he tries to make into a joke, he'll pause as if waiting for laughter and then recieves none because it's a debate and not a pep rally. A good example was Wed night when he made a joke about not trusting Popular News media sources, trying to play on the Dan Rather bumble knowing that the moderator also worked for CBS. The crowd was dead silent and his attempt at humor fell flat on it's face.

what? you din't find that? wouldn't the fact he *does* find something funny show that he has a sense of humor. Doesn't mean you and him have to laugh at the same jokes. Alhough his type of humor may be, well, inappropriate for debates or other public appearances.

me? i have a sense of humor. i was lolin' during the entire debate.

Oh damn. I'm sorry. I misquoted Bush there. What he really said is:

"There oughta be limits there oughta be limits to there oughta be limits to uh... to freedom...."
