I find his comments about making money deplorable while our brave men and women are fighting.

Really pathetic. Really.

What’s pathetic is this meaningless post.  Virtually all politicians, especially presidents have speaking engagements to make money for their party.  Certainly Bill Clinton went that route following his presidency and of course you have nothing negative to say about that.  However, there is one thing that is certain.  Unlike Carter, Gore and other Democrats, he will not make anti-American speechs like they have done.

One of the most important talents for success in politics is the ability to make utter nonsense sound not only plausible but inspiring. Barack Obama has that talent. We will be lucky if we escape the catastrophes into which other countries have been led by leaders with that same charismatic talent.

YES! We should ALL stop making money while our brave men and women are fighting! /sarcasm
You first, Davinski!

No guys, what’s pathetic, is that the guy is talking about it before he even leaves office and while he is at war, a war he started, that he said wouldn’t last this long.

What’s pathetic, is that you guys defend what he is saying while expecting our men and women to defend his policies while he is out fillin his ol coffers and planning it while he is expecting our men and women to continue fighting his war.

That takes maturity indeed. Life goes on, Lik, that’s really pathetic that you would say this as our men and women are being killed.  Oh yeah, I want you to say that to a mother or father or husband or wife who has lost a loved one.  go ahead, I dare you!

What’s pathetic, oh Puzzled One, is the missing context.

President Bush sat for the interviews on two separate occasions.

And perhaps, he was asked what he would do when he left office?
Take your mock outrage and save it for some illegal campaign contribution scandal. At least Bush is talking about making honest money “while our brave men and women are fighting” how about the scumbags (Dollar Bill Jefferson, Three Dollar Bill Hillary, etc. who are making DIS-honest money during the same time. This is more honorable in your eyes?

Proof, he was asked the question and he should have said: “I’m concentrating on my duties as president and we are at war.  There will be plenty of time when I leave office to decide my future, but the futures of our military men and women are at stake and we should concentrate on that.”

See how easy that is Proof?

P: As usual, you try to make a connection where none exists, simply out of your BDS.  Sad.

If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Thanks to Obama, America remains the only country where it is illegal to drill our own oil!

What’s pathetic is your BDS which apparently doesn’t allow you to see beyond your Bush hatred.  Our men and women in the military know fully well what they are doing and and that is defending and protecting our nation and its citizens which unfortunately includes undeserving leftists like you.

Right, DD, they’re defending the President’s right to plan his $75,000 speech tour while they are fighting his war.  You, my dear DD are suffering from, as many do here, BAS, Bush Apologist Syndrome.

P: You have the right to spread your hate exactly because this President stood up to terrorism and started to fight against it, unlike the coward who preceded him.  You owe him a debt you can never repay.

If govt control of the economy were the way to go, the Soviet Union would be the richest, most powerful nation in the history of the world.

Every dollar the Clintons have today they got from the public trough.

Sorry!  I forgot the millions they got illegally from foreign enemies.  Excuse me.

R108, if that’s the best you have, you should stick to your defense of Craig, you will have ample time now that he is reconsidering.

No guys, what’s pathetic, is that the guy is talking about it before he even leaves office and while he is at war, a war he started, that he said wouldn’t last this long.

He was talking about it because he was asked about it.  Once he’s no longer President there isn’t much he can do about Iraq, nor would I expect him to try and do something.  For better or worse, Democrat or Republican, we will have a new President after Bush…and it will be entirely appropriate for Bush to take trips down to his ranch or speak for money.

Honestly, this is about as petty as it gets.

The purpose of government shouldn’t be to do good, but simply to refrain from doing evil.

See how easy that is

Substitute the word “shallow” and it fits your analysis well!

Where did he say he was planning his tour?There’s a big difference, even to a demented leftie between “I’m planned a tour” and “I’m going to give some speeches”!
Sheesh!

Proof, you’re right, “shallow” is exactly the right word to describe what Bush is doing.

Nice one! Ignore all the arguments given to you and stick to your original character assassination!
Puzzle: How shallow of you to quibble over such things while our brave men and women are fighting overseas!Nice one size fits all argument! Relieves you of the need to actually think !

Speaking about other peoples money and your money is crass.
Raised to the position of President,
still demonstrating an absence of class and character.
Gonna go get paid.

At least he didn’t mention the servant problem.

Speaking about other peoples money and your money is crass.

So when you and Puzzle talk about the President making money, you’re being…crass?

P: Please give us a logical connection between our war against the terrorists and the President giving speeches after his term is over.  Not your “logic”, but real logic.

Dude. Who cares? All this has done for me is let me know not to buy the book, which will probably be overpriced anyway. I have been buying other books though, and will continue to, but not that book. That’s all I can glean here.

spark, two words, secondhand bookstore. Never pay retail for books!

puzz, the best part is that he has already outlined a speaking tour. During the run up in 2004. The main topic he is keen to speak on? Green technology. You know? Like he had used in the “ranch” in Crawford. Several years before running for President. I believe it was covered in a WashPo article. Or perhaps the Vanity Fair piece. And why are you so ignorant of your hero’s lucrative speaking gigs? Algore grosses more than Willie Jeff ever has.

You seem a bit in disarray, sweety, you should try to take it easy. Perhaps a little reading to relax?  There is a rather broad selection of tomes written by soldiers about their experiences protecting your freedoms and way of life, many from the last 6 years. Oh! Thats right. It is improper for people to make money writing, or speaking, about past events and their opinions/thoughts on said past events.

How considerate of you to figure all this out and explain it for us.

Guttermouth, neither of those started a war that will last a generation.

R108 Oh,I dunno, maybe that he is in the midst of a “war on terror” and is speaking publicly about garnering 50-75 grand a speech and if he gets bored he’ll run on down to Crawford at the same time our young men and women are being killed. so much for keeping his eye on the war on terror.  It sounds as if he is already bored.

Oh and I don’t live by your definition of logic.

Yes they did, stupid ass. We are fighting it right now. Your boy, willie jeff had ample opportunity to hammer Islamic terror cells and did nothing. Other than stain that dress and lie to his wife on TV.
