Bush on Faux: "War's hard."
Edited on Wed Jan-31-07 07:32 PM by cynatnite
Bush told Cavuto, "We've got a war that we're fighting against extremists, radicals who would do us harm. We're in a major battle in that war in Iraq. And it's -- it's unsettling times when you're at war. War's -- war's hard. War's difficult. It's negative."

4. Bush on FOX? Now, that's a surprise!
If there was a God he'd make Bush dig every grave.

6. Dig every grave? Be careful, he might enjoy that -
good cardio and strength-training at the same time, get outdoors, better than brush-clearing even!

5. Another big lie. War's not hard. Diplomacy is hard.
War is easy. You just send the generals out to do it.

Diplomacy requires thinking and reflection and forgiveness and risk.

What an idiot. What a loser.

9. That's his psychopathic attempt at expressing what a normal person might---except
it fails miserably.

10. War's hard but profitable! The Bush family tradition.
Samuel Bush "served on the War Industries Board, where he was in charge of the forgings, guns, small arms, and ammunition section and later the facilities division." Later he became the first president of the National Association of Manufacturers and a director of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland.

George H. Walker, another bush progenitor, marketed British bonds, and assisted the JP Morgan and company, as British Commercial agent for purchasing war supplies in the United States. "Allied wartime purchases through Morgan ultimately came to $3.2 billion, a staggering sum more than four times the entire U.S. federal budget in 1914."

After the war, Walker was viewed as the man responsible for assembling Harriman's overseas empire, which included the infamous Silesian-American Corporation, later involved in Nazi crimes against humanity. Walker's daughter married Prescott Bush, who emerged as Walker's heir and a managing partner in Brown Brothers Harriman.

Distilled from Kevin Phillips' American Dynasty, Aristocracy, Fortune, and the Politics of Deceit in the House of Bush. Quotes are from Phillips pages 21-25. The Bushes rode steadily higher with "US global hegemony and a domestic military-national security complex."
