Bush to Troops:  I Gave Up Golf for You

Gee, thanks for all you do, President Bush. Wow, you just might give up biking with all those secret service men.  Nah, golf is a pretty big sacrifice.

For the first time, Bush revealed a personal way in which he has tried to acknowledge the sacrifice of soldiers and their families: He has given up golf.

“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.”

Give us a picture of Bill Clinton jogging for equal time (and equal lack of meaning!). Those pasty white thighs could be used in lieu of landing lights in many third world airports!



A troll is someone who only wants to stir up trouble, not have an honest debate.  Some signs that a poster is a troll:
* Dodges questions from other posters * Refuses to give sources
* When one of its arguments is shown to be false, either ignores the proof or moves the goalposts.  Heh. (From the LGF faq)

Better yet, give us a list of Mr. Clinton’s nuclear non-proliferation and anti- Islamist terrorism accomplishments.  Got anything at all in that department?

Bush’s last round of golf as president dates back to October 13, 2003, according to meticulous records kept by CBS news.

The US president traced his decision to the August 19, 2003 bombing of UN headquarters in Baghdad, which killed the world body’s top official in Iraq, Sergio Vieira de Mello.

Oh B O, you so funny…

Have you found someone to vote for yet?

“If you are part of a society that votes, then do so. There may be no candidates and no measures you want to vote for ... but there are certain to be ones you want to vote against. In case of doubt, vote against. By this rule you will rarely go wrong.

Proof,

We should ask sparkless for its voters guide before springing the rest of that quote on them…

I kinda thought your prior claims to Clinton having accomplished anything were pretty funny too!

Don’t need to.  Voting against Obama and the Democrats is reason enough.
