He had lied so much he is getting sloppy. Now they have video tape proving he is a liar.

This is disgusting.

You've accidently put "when" at the beginning of your question.

Bush is a politician. Regardless of whether or not one agrees with his agenda, acumen, or ability, his falling into the human substrata 'politician' guarantees that he will, in fact, not cease lying. Politicians have to lie, otherwise they melt, much the same as when one pours a bucket of water on them.

Bush just needs his handlers to provide him with a Lie Czar. Someone who writes this stuff down on 3X5 index cards so his handlers can properly keep his lies organized. :D

I'm sorry, but what most fail to realize is that Bush is not a God. He is not all-knowing. I guess what I'm getting at is he, more than likely, had advisors telling him of the situation and what to say. I'm only guessing on this but to me it makes sense. How else could he possibly know how prepared they were? He is only as informed as the intel he receives. I'm sure Clinton or any other president were liars too. Ooops didn't mean Clinton, he was a god. :eek: Any way, stop bitching about everything and start working on ways to fix things. Still haven't heard any solutions...just complaints. "We can do better" than do it.

Um, Spinner, did you read the story? There's a load of video of people directly saying to him "this is going to be bad" "they're not prepared" "not enough medical teams" "need to get support there" and so on and so on.

Well first this thread is about Bush lying and that is what I responded to. As far as your comments, I didn't say that he didn't screw up, but so did the Mayor and the Govenor, who have know about the problem for many, many years, yet it still always comes out to be Bush's fault. Everyone points at Bush. FEMA responds after the damage is done. What about before? Why didn't the State and Locals do a better job getting the people out of there, but I guess that's Bushs fault too. Anyway, with respect, I'm not going to get in anymore discussions on shoulda coulda woulda on Katrina. That would be a different thread if you want to start a new one on that.

All politicians lie, at least the ones that I've noticed. Theres no way around it. I know most of you hate the current administration. That's fine. I just wish you'd spend that energy you have hating it and turn it into doing something positive. But then I guess it's easier to bash everyone you don't like. It makes it easier to avoid actually thinking about ways to make things right.

I wish I could frame this as the moment an apologist ran out of excuses

Read: You still didn't RTFA. Ron Brown of FEMA was briefing the Pres about the impending disaster, as was some guy from NOAA. Shortly thereafter Bush took some time off from some very important vacation to assure the Louisiana officials that they had nothing to worry about and that the federal cavalry was all ready to help out in the event that anything bad (e.g. a Category 5 Hurricane) should hit.

Did Bush cause the storm? Maybe Pat Robertson might think so. Did fail to apprise the local officials of what his advisors had told him? Yep. Did he do so intentionally or just because he was sleeping through the advisories? We'll likely never know. Does it matter what party Bush belongs to? Nope. It was his DHS that he failed to disseminate the information from to the parties that needed it. Whatever the motivations or lack thereof, it was a the exact opposite of what he should have done. And this is without the benefit of hindsight.

If you want to espouse an opinion, do yourself the favor of making it one informed by the evidence available.

His handler was in the hospital with a kidney stone that day, which is how things got so screwed up and out of hand. There was no back up handler and the monkey really showed his ass - no hiding that big ole red ugly thang this time. :D

When Will Neehai Stop Lying...

...about being gay?

Neehai, it's clear to everyone that your whole "homosexuality" is just a rouse that grew out of your hatred for America and Christianity and your overwhelming need for attention. You looked around for the best way to throw it in everyone's face while demanding their pity and sympathy. Admit it. Come clean. You're just a well dressed straight guy.

How else do you explain your lack of any interest whatsoever in Reitsuki?

Then why do Federal government organizations such as FEMA exist?

To funnel enormous amounts of tax money to republican contractors, of course.

Spinner puts up some reasonable comments, and all it recieves is more bitching that completely ignores the points made?

Oh yea, by the way, if you want to see some apologists stretching for excuses, you could also look for threads where people launch defense campaigns for Hamas, or Saddam, or North Korea, or any other bunch of collective assholes. If you think it's just the conservatives stretching to defend people who don't deserve it because it fits their agenda, you're half blind.

Why don't you take off your jingo-istic supremacist corporate death machine glasses and look at what is really happening.

You are allowing and encouraging great pain and evil in the world for the sake of the dollar

honestly, I don't know how you death mongers can sleep at night
