"Gasp ! The president lied? ... another try ... per #19"
 
   LAST EDITED ON 19-May-08 AT 06:50 PM (PST) by (moderator)
 
President Bush said with a straight face this week that he gave up golf in honor of the fallen soldiers in Iraq, claiming that he quit after the bombing of the UN headquarters in Baghdad in August 2003:
"I don't want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander in chief playing golf," he said. "I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best as I can with them. And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong signal."


Bush said he made that decision after the August 2003 bombing of the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad, which killed Sergio Vieira de Mello, the top U.N. official in Iraq and the organization's high commissioner for human rights.

"I remember when de Mello, who was at the U.N., got killed in Baghdad as a result of these murderers taking this good man's life," he said. "I was playing golf -- I think I was in central Texas -- and they pulled me off the golf course and I said, 'It's just not worth it anymore to do.'"

In fact, Bush went golfing two months after the bombing the UN headquarters, and Keith Olbermann found the video:

LD, it's not whether Bush lied but that he's incapable of knowing what the truth is. He says things as he's told to say it or makes it up on the spot. And when caught out in his errors he ignores it as he doesn't care enough to admit it.

Maybe he was tired, just like Hillary? You were silent then, so it her lies must be okay with you.....

Interesting how and when you choose to hold people to your high standards.

You should have stopped at "stupid" as Bush isn't smart enough to rise to the level of liar. And that was a cheap shot and flame at Atticus. C'mon dude.

The facts are Bush lied (or was tired, made a comment in error) and when served with the truth he doesn't have balls to admit it ... based on these facts you should not make any "personal opinions" on 'extraordinary capabilities' ... subterranean or not!

You obviously do not understand the basic definition of "capabilities" LOL LOL - Hillary retracted her erroneous comments and miss quotes. What excuse does Bush or you have for not having a fucking clue for you’re saying.

Hillary tried to cover up for them by saying she was tired. When that dog didn't hunt she "retracted".

Nice of you to forget the first part and remember only the second.

Typical.........

I don't know about you, but I'd remember being shot at before I'd remember my last round of golf.

Of course, that makes perfect sense, so you won't understand.

The only problem is we aren't talking about Hillary, are we? We are talking about Bush, who you voted for twice. He lied. He's a liar. That's the topic of this thread.

Do you honestly think Cheney can remember through the drunken stupor the details of his shooting? He couldn't seem to remember to report it in a timely manner.

Cheney is not dumb (like Bush) ... I'm sure he knew he was under a legal obligation to report the shooting ASAP. But he also knew if he did the authorities would have been required to order a blood alcohol test that I suspect Cheney knew he could not pass. Just keeping it real

In other words, the difference is Cheney knows better than to get into a situation where he has to explain his lies ... Bush is too stupid to know the difference (ex. I quit golfing becasue ...) LOL LOL

You guys are a bunch of tools. Every President who has held office has lied, both Repubilican and Democrat, even "Honest" Abe Lincoln. And every future President from here to eternity will lie.
Most of you guys are liars and/or hypocrites. What do you do when you get home in the evening... " Hi honey, I fucked a whore today. How was your day?". People that live in glass house's....

I know Bush has lied about things but the toppic you brought up is a lie about when and why he stoped golfing?

Do you really tink that 150 years after the death of Lincoln a minor lie like that would be known? Do yu really think 150 years from now when and why Bush quit golfing will be known?

Anyhow I can tell you one lie told abou Lincoln, "Lincoln freed the slaves" that is a lie, he did not.

No, I am agreeing with lifestoshort in that I do not doubt that every president, in fact every person that has ever lived has told a lie.

24. "You sure do love picking nits"
In response to message #23
 
Q] From Tim Nagle: “What is the origin of the expression nit-picking?”

[A] The phrase comes from the task of removing the tiny eggs of lice (nits) from someone’s hair and clothing, a tedious activity that required close attention and care. The word nit, which could also refer to the eggs of other insect parasites such as fleas, has been around in the language for as long as we have records (it appears in Old English around 825 as hnitu, but it has relatives in most European languages and has been traced back to an Indo-European root, so ancient has been the association of such pests with human beings).

But what seems a little odd is that the figurative sense of nit-picking, of petty criticism or fault finding, is modern. The Oxford English Dictionary records it first only in 1951, in the form nit-picker, in this helpful explanation from Collier’s: “Two long-time Pentagon stand-bys are fly-speckers and nit-pickers. The first of these nouns refers to people whose sole occupation seems to be studying papers in the hope of finding flaws in the writing, rather than making any effort to improve the thought or meaning; nit-pickers are those who quarrel with trivialities of expression and meaning, but who usually end up without making concrete or justified suggestions for improvement”. The first of these two slang terms has died out, with the second taking on much of its meaning.

Why it took so long for this expressive figurative sense to appear is a small mystery. Perhaps we had to wait for a time when the memory of the finicky nature of the task was still current, but when the need for it in industrialised countries had been greatly reduced through better hygiene and insecticides. Or perhaps the image came not from humans, but from some natural-history programme about our simian relatives, who spend much of their time literally nit-picking as part of grooming.

Take more time in thinking about what you are about to post, before you post.

What is at issue here ... Bush lied (and has done so much more than most presidents), he was CAUGHT in this lie, and hasn't a freakin' clue how to respond. And the real rub is his lying is a weakass attempt to show compassion to the families and friends of the fallen (what a dumd ass).

I have no issue with the lie itself (come to expect it with Bush in office), it's just that he's such a dumb shit on top of his lying.

I unlocked this thread, so that some folks could take another shot at “BEING ON TOPIC FOR ONCE”, i.e. it could have been a great discussion, but once again it slipped into about (7) posts devoted to personal comments and attacks. I was off Friday through Sunday, so I didn’t get a chance to exercise my Samaria sword. Now I’m back into the SWING of things. FYI, the following got killed;
