Bush to Democrats: do not 'test my will' on Iraq
Bush to Democrats: do not 'test my will' on Iraq
Published: Friday April 27, 2007



President George W. Bush warned Democrats Friday not to "test my will" by passing new legislation on a US troop pullout from Iraq after he vetoes a bill passed by Congress this week.

Bush invited Democrats and leaders of his Republican Party to discuss a way out of their standoff soon after he strikes down the bill, which ties 124 billion dollars in war funds to a withdrawal that would start on October 1.

"And if the Congress wants to test my will as to whether or not I'll accept the timetable for withdrawal, I won't accept one," he told a news conference at his retreat in Camp David, Maryland, alongside Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

"So if they want to try again that which I have said was unacceptable, then of course I'll veto it," Bush said.

6. 11 Bravo to Bush:
I have heard shots fired in anger, Little Boots, many of them aimed at me, some of them connecting. Am I truly supposed to be intimidated by a chickenshit pretend cowboy? Blow me, you jug-eared little prick.

Seriously, has the nickname "Chimpolini" ever seemed more appropriate?

16. I'd love to test his will
His last will and testament. I mean, I'm sure Gonzo wrote it, so it's airtight, right?

"Fredo, how's my new will comin'?"

"I don't recall."

"Fredo, c'mon. I'm hungry and I wanna open these pretzel logs!"

"I don't recall."

"That's it, I'm getting on my Segway and kicking your ass! Where are you?"

"I don't recall."

"Damn you, Fredo!" <crash> "Ow! Fredo, what's the number for nine-one-one?"

"I don't recall."
