You Gotta Hand It To Bush On This One…..

The man has guts. Chutzpah. Cojones.
When I got up this morning and turned on the news he was in Iraq. And not in the safety of the Green Zone in Baghdad. Anbar Province. He bypassed Baghdad altogether and flew straight into Anbar with his Secretary of Defense and his Secretary of State in tow.
You have to hand it to him. Despite his many other faults, the pathetic and feeble immigration enforcement of his administration, his pandering to the left that borders on exchanging wet, sloppy kisses, and the fact that his staff is quitting faster than a Muslim meat cutter on a hog farm, this is a ballsy guy.
To land in a place where every psycho homicidal lunatic who can pull a trigger wants to kill you – and you specifically – is an in-your-face act of bravado.
I’ve been and remain very critical of him of late and he deserves it. But I tip my hat to him on this one. He’s not hiding in some backwards borderland, sending videotaped messages of hate and exhorting his followers to kill, well, anyone they can like bin Laden and company. Nor is he hiding in Syria like the leaders of Hamas who, despite all their bravado, are peeing in their pants at the thought of giving Israel a crack at them.
He’s right there on their front doorstep. They gotta hate that. And that makes me like it even more.

    sparkless,

    We don’t see you in Anbar… And from what we’ve seen of you here, you deserve to live in “The City of Brotherly Love.”

    I’d say Bush is doing damage control on the General report. It must be safer than New Orleans.

    Sparkie!

    Where ya been? I’ve missed you. Come give daddy a hug!

    Also, can you tell me what that above idiotic comment has to do with anything I wrote?

    At least you’re consistent.

    How is that different from landing in DC? If you want homicidal maniacs…just go to DK, DU or HuffPo, not to mention the NYT. Big deal. The President has endured this savagery from the Dems/MSM since he was elected, except for about two weeks after 9/11.

    “mission accomplished…again”!

    I don’t hate him. I feel sorry for him. He is barely capable and proves it on a regular basis.

    Yawn, I am sure Lurch would have done so much better.

    “his staff is quitting faster than a Muslim meat cutter on a hog farm, this is a ballsy guy.”

    That’s a great line, congratulations on your creativity.

    Most of the comments above are so incredibly immature and ignorant that I cannot believe these people are capabale or walking upright. The trouble is, Bush haters are so blinded by their hate that they could not force themselves to say something good about him, even if he came up with the cure for cancer.

    Bush irritates the crap out of me, but: 1. He is light years ahead of any damn Democrat! 2. He has demonstrated a great deal of courage during his presidency and considering that his life is always in jeopardy, I think it took guts to go to Anbar.

    How’d the move go, Spark?

    Yikes, Sparkie,

    I see you can still twist, deflect, and discolor a fact with the best of them.

    I don’t see Rush’s fat ass in Anbar to meet the troops. ‘Nuff said.

    Can we make this into a trophy?

  • WOOFX

    Congress critters came under rocket fire at Baghdad airport last week.

    5 years on Bush sneaks into what the Marines call “Camp Cupcake” in the middle of nowhere.

    Yea. I live in Philly. BFD. That’s all it takes to get your ass wetnapped by Pil’s tongue? Darn!
    According to Rush, you’re at greater risk on vacation in Jamaica! Risk my ass!

  • http://sayanythingblog.com/readers/author/sparkiearbuckle sayanything-81

    Pil
    You say Bush has balls to go to Anbar providence with his yacht club buddies… er i Mean cabinet members, but Rush has already debunked the charge that Iraq is dangerous. According to Rush, its the safest place in the entire world!

    Ergo, Bush does not have ‘cohones’ merely in virtue of going to anbar. If Rush hadn’t debunked it, he still would be, but we all know that Rush always tells the truth and never twists it or bullshits, right?
