Bush: War On Terror Like U.S. Revolution
President Bush honored the 275th birthday of the nation's first president on Monday, likening George Washington's long struggle that gave birth to a nation to the war on global terrorism.

“Today, we're fighting a new war to defend our liberty and our people and our way of life,” said Bush, standing in front of Washington's home and above a mostly frozen Potomac River.

I guess that means if we pull out of Iraq, we'll all start to have to make pilgrimages to Mecca

2. That rustling sound you hear is Washington spinning in his grave.
He felt at home at Monticello because it was the home of the "first George W."? What a smarmy little self-aggrandizing prick he is.

6. Shit, you're right.
It was Mount Vernon. Hard to pick on the idiot-in-chief when I can't remember where he made that lousy speech. :crazy:

8. you are 100% right, 0% wrong
We are running around in uniforms while the locals blow us away.

History lesson: The Brits' lost and so will we if we attempt to keep this up and/or start some shit in Iran. (Kinda like when Hitler attacked Russia)
