Bush: Iraq violence is a 'very positive moment'
Raw Story

Speaking to the Times of London in an interview published Thursday, President George W. Bush declared that the latest wave of violence in Iraq yielded "a very positive moment in the development of a sovereign nation that is willing to take on elements that believe they are beyond the law." (snip)

The Bush Administration has a history of turning violence into "positives."

During the 2006 war in Lebanon, for example, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice declared the Israeli attack as "birth pangs."

"What we're seeing here, in a sense, is the growing -- the birth pangs of a new Middle East and whatever we do we have to be certain that we're pushing forward to the new Middle East not going back to the old one," Rice said.

During his interview with the Times, Bush disparaged those who want US troops to come home, and reinforced his power, saying as he has before, "I'm commander in chief." (More at Raw Story link)

Why does this vapid, paranoid little man keep reminding the world that he is Commander-in-Chief? The world knows! The whole world waits his departure with bated breath in mortal fear of the potentially massive wreckage yet to be wrought by the Bu$h cabal.

1. It if is all positive or normal or a sign of success then it's OK

then people can accept it easier as being "just the way it is"...just a normal part of spreading democracy...

it's a message for the American people, of course

2. The Idiot in Chief wants to sign an agreement with Iraq that we will not be leaving!

-- even after he leaves office.

This was what I got from that irrational speech this a.m.. No doubt he will have a Signing Statement that allows him to make these kinds of deal with foreign countries without the approval of Congress.

Obama needs Biden as an adviser when it comes to foreign policy, Iraq in particular at this critical time. Obama needs Edwards to help him deal with the crooks on Wall Street.

Edited to hopefully claify....

3. There are more "very positive moments" being reported today. n/t

4. I am betting the violence is also "fabulous" in his mind. nt
