Bush speaking live NOW (3:30 PM ET)
I'm watching on CNN. I don't know what other channels are coving him.

It makes for interesting viewing after seeing Nader and Dean talk about real issues.

"See? The sun comes up in the east . . . " ( waits for us to be astonished )


I hate it when he talks to US like we're stupider than HE is.

Yeah Bush, you're going to know soon enough what it is like to lose a job.

It's bad for my health. I cannot stand the sight or sound of that cretin. I cannot stand the thought that he is in 'charge'. I want to projectile vomit, I want to throw anything handy at his smug ignorant mug, I want to cry so hard for something so important lost.

How did it Get to Be like this? o man....

as missiles?!? :wtf:

And if he will "Do everything it takes to defend America" then that's a good thing, cause what it takes is for him to be GONE.

45. He's a complete fool
And this speech is showing the world what a complete idiot this guys is.

He's stammering like a guilty child and he's running off script and it's getting worse and worse.

Are they pointing weapons at these people to get them to applaud?

He's is so clearly on the brink of a major free fall.

And how can CNN not comment on his "rambling, stuttering, non-sensical" rant?

40. Now he's engaging in more revisionist history
This time about Iraq and the UN resolutions. Oh, and he's also rewriting the history about the 9/11 investigations. He now "welcomes" the investigations. :puke:

He's repeating the bit about meaning what you say again. I don't know why his brain doesn't explode from the hypocrisy.

Well, why don't you just put your camera on them for 30 minutes and listen to their campaign speech, just like with Mr Bush? Now that would be fair and balanced, wouldn't it? And you like "fair and balanced", don't you??

48. I watched the little poop head. Tax, taxes, taxed, taxation
taxing, tax man tax tax tax. The habitual Rethug mantra. ChimpNuts says if you put money in your health savings account you can then have it for that medical service you need. And, it's all TAX FREE.
Let's say you put $50 a month in your TAX FREE health savings account for 12 months you've got a massive total of $600 to apply to your medical bills of $100,000 of which none is covered by health insurance. But it's TAX FREE. He blamed the rising cost of medical services in this country on TRIAL LAWYERS.

49. Bush says the US needs foreign markets
for US goods, working as of now on China to buy US goods. Free trade is beneficial to Americans,in effect we benefit from cheaper goods, yes (slave labor of course). One little problem, George, what jobless person is able to take advantage of those cheap goods? Someone must have told him that our manufacturing base has gone to hell. His solution, an example, textile workers can get an education and enter the medical nursing field. Sure that's the answer for a 50 year old, get a new education. All you people who have worked in industry, go out and reeducate yourself in a new field (what new field?, he doesn't say). Go back to community college. The dolt doesn't realize that our farming industry is sinking and most produce that we buy is produced in foreign countries. Oh hell, we are no longer self-sufficient. Corporate greed and deregulation have done us in. Our power used to lie in the ability to be self-sufficient. We had and still have the best that nature has to offer, water power, vast arable land, access to essential minerals and people willing to be on the production end. This was once put into effect to make the US the most productive industrial power on earth. It is being thrown away in the name of corporate greed and the political power hunger. We are going the way of the USSR, too big for our britches, arrogant, mean, greedy and ignorant.
