from George Bush's new book

"By the time Dick came to the ranch to deliver his final report, I had decided to make another run at him. As he finished his briefing, I said, "Dick, you are the perfect running mate." While I had dropped hints before, he could tell I was serious this time. Finally, he said, "I need to talk to Lynne." I took that as a promising sign. He told me ( Read more... )

Cheney actually supported gay marriage.

NGL, I didn't like the guy, but he was personally pro-gay marriage. He said it was a state issue versus a federal one.

Regardless, Bush was completely anti-gay marriage and his wording in that statement only emphasizes it. He's just using it as a drama clincher in his book, which by the sounds of it, probably wasn't mostly written by him. good ol dubya.

i hate them both

they are spineless in all the wrong places and incredibly petty, childish and power hungy in also all the wrong places

i forgot how much i just HATED seeing him on tv, all the time

his constant lying, the fucking atrocities he gives the go-ahead on, the bullshit morality he tried to spread across the united states, the endless fucking of the poor and the blowjobs for the rich, the shittiest disaster response job ever

and we gave him two fucking terms because he didn't ruin the economy fast enough/9-11 9-11 9-11 9-11

People kept using the logic that he was the only candidate suitable during his run for reelection because 'he was the only one who knew how to handle the situation in iraq and afghanistan.' Like, huh? I get the rhetoric that we needed to elect somebody who knew what was going on so they could properly set up the process of pulling troops BUT BUSH WASN'T GOING TO DO THAT SO? LOL. There was no logic there.

people wanna kill somebody because our people were killed

bush was the person who was gonna be a-okay with more killing till we 'won'

that was the big thing, we wanted to WIN, we didn't want the war to just end, we wanted it to end when we WON

fucking god, america's response to 9-11 is infuriating

the people who feel the greatest need to nuke the middle east because of 9-11 are from those areas that also fucking HATE the kind of people who live in big cities, or more specifically, GAYTOWN BROWN PERSON LIBERALVILLE USA, NEW YORK CITY

i personally support war on terrorism, specifically in afghanistan. however, i don't support the tactical methods that were used, especially initially. i don't support how we started the war.

also, i wouldn't say that this was america's response to 9/11, as much as it was the bush administration's.

no i get it, and i am very tempted to read this book. BUT i am afraid of the rage too.

as my dad said the one thing bush has done right has been hiding away and staying the fuck out of politics and the public since he stepped down from the presidency.

WELL once the rage is bled out, i can get back to being LASER FOCUSED with my rage sources

little pinpoints of disagreement and indignant, rebellious attitude

instead of with this guy, where i just explode into a goddamn volcano

i used to get that way, especially during the reelection campaign and the start of his second term. the guy always pissed me off but i was fuming at that point. then i slowly began to realize that change in his administration was futile and that he was a humongous nincompoop.

i think that was the biggest thing

how much he sucked himself into this bubble where only his viewpoint reigned

anger was pointless, because it did absolutely nothing, because as far as he knew or cared, it didn't exist

oh, also, 'nother little excerpt

he said he would've endorsed obama if obama's people came to him and never would've endorsed mccain

i do not even know what this guy's game is anymore
