KING GEORGE'S 9/11 TOUR – 2006 EDITION

In this speech the terror word and its derivatives surfaced 71 times; there were 13 references to Sept. 11; plus overuse, of course, of "extremists," "attacks" and "enemy."

"President Bush Discusses Progress in the Global War on Terror" was the misnomer attached to King George XLIII's appearance before the Georgia Public Policy Foundation on Thursday, Sept. 7.

This was a speech with absolutely nothing new.

He did quote LtGen Russ Honore', US Army, who was in attendance. You might remember the general as the man who took control of New Orleans when Homeland Security stepped all over FEMA's attempts to do anything positive. Well, the quote went, "Don't get stuck on stupid."

Wow! Wouldn't it be great if the entire RoveBushCheney Fascist Cabal took that to heart?

Again, he questioned the legal expertise of a Federal Court that struck down the warrantless wiretap program as illegal. It's absolutely amazing how knowledgeable George W. Bush is about Constitutional Law. How did America make it through the latter part of the 20th Century while he was down in Texas?

Throughout the talk, His Excellency kept reminding us how much safer the United States is since he's made these changes in our lives the past five years.

Somebody please call the bunko squad, because I'm not buying that "we're safer" garbage.

Like everything else that emanates from King George's mouth, the more he says it, the bigger the lie.

The biggest whopper of all: --If America pulls out of Iraq before the Iraqis can defend themselves, the terrorists will follow us here, home."

This day, George invoked Sept. 11 on 39 instances, and terror 64 times.

George W. Bush did not set out to talk to the people of the United States as a leader, as one of us. He, for the third straight election period, used the Rovian tactic of ripping out stitches of the wounds of Sept. 11 and pouring the salt of fear directly into those openings which have yet to heal.

It's the politics of fear, fear, fear.

The Republicans have nothing left. And if the Democratic Party gets the majority it should come November, those thugs in the White House are in for some very big surprises.

These four speeches, delivered with callous disregard by a phony president who would be king, showed exactly how little he and his staff care about this Nation and the people who comprise it.

Let me see a show of hands from everyone who thinks George W. Bush is a sincere person...
