I Feel Sorry For George W. Bush

Byrnzie

As much as I regard him as a giddy buffoon, with the look of a frat boy on acid, I feel it necessary to say that I never really felt any animosity towards him. I actually feel a bit sorry for him. He was merely nothing more then a patsy anyway, and probably had very little idea what he was saying when reading the speeches given to him by those people in the background pulling his strings.
I expect that when all the big decisions were being made he was upstairs innocently stroking himself off or trying to get to the next level of 'medal of Honour' on his Playstation.

I think all the hatred towards this fool is somewhat misdirected, and I actually feel a certain degree of sympathy for him.

I've always felt sympathy for anyone that is that dumb, including those that voted for him for 2 terms. Being upstairs innocently stroking himself off paints a terrible picture.

Bash Bush: OMG! Never thought of that before.

Better get back to jihad Byrnzie, I don't think intellectualism is for you.

I actually don't think he was that dumb. Probably smarter than the rest of us. He wasn't a good speaker, though.

I feel more sorry for all the idiots too dumb to realize that hating one person that much in our large, bloated, corrupt government is foolish.

Imagine if Bush were President now with the oil disaster. People would be burning him in effigy. Obama gets a pass, though. It says a lot.

Says the guy who started a thread entitled "Obama is the Anti-Christ"? Really?

The way I feel about George W. Bush is probably the same as how I'd feel if Lenny from 'Of Mice & Men' was given the job of President - I feel a lot of anger towards him for all the suffering and destruction he oversaw, but at the same time I kind of pity him for the fact that he was placed in a position that was out of his depth, and where he didn't belong in the first place.
He was corrupted by power and by those around him. If he hadn't been born into a powerful and privileged family then there's no way he'd have become Commander in Chief. He always struck me as someone who would have been better suited hosting a wacky childrens t.v show, or maybe working as an ice-cream man.

I always thought he was just trying to do things to allow for funny impression on Saturday night Live-- and watch it with his drinking pals.

I feel sorry for those that have to make themselves feel better by degrading the intelligence of others based on how they vote or what they believe on different issues.

I wonder why it is that people can't see that there is more than 1 point of view on all topics and at least multiple points of view on every topic that has some validity.

I also feel sorry for the girl that was in Ted Kennedy's car...and chelsea clinton...and the aborted babies...and Elizabeth Edwards...and the parents of all military men & women...and the whole city of Cleveland if Lebron leaves...and anyone involved in the Israel-Palestinian conflict...and all hardworking individuals that have lost their jobs due to companies moving operations overseas or due fiscal irresponsible behavior by business leaders...and every effected by the BP oil spill (I can't believe it's still flowing)....and a lot more.

But honestly, I don't think I feel sorry for GW at all, except for the cheapshots, but that is to be expected.

Not every view point has validity. Evolution comes about by moving beyond falsehoods and delusions, not by entertaining and tolerating falsehoods and delusions.

What's to be expected? The cheap shots?
Do you not think George W. Bush deserved to be ridiculed? Personally I think leaders of any nation should be held to a high standard, and highlighting their faults is one way of trying to maintain these standards. Or maybe you think it's acceptable for any jackass to assume the role of President of the U.S?

Hence "at least multiple viewpoints on all topics have SOME validity"...not all. I agree.

No, again, I said I don't feel sorry for him being ridiculed. Some very valid reasons. By cheapshots I mean stuff like he is so dumb all he does is play games and masterbate. And other stuff like that.

By the way, why are you always looking to start a fight?

And why are you always putting words in other people's mouth? I never said GW shouldn't be criticized...in fact I said the opposite. I just get tired of the stupid stuff.

So please stop making stuff up.

You go to bed after making an assumption of my opinion?

have you ever spoken in front of the world? maybe he gets nervous...I don't know, I have come around on him, policy wise I wasn't a fan at all, but I don't think he is the bumbling idiot he was made out to be. He had a lot of moments that would point to the contrary, but he just isn't stupid. And the idea that he was just some little puppet is stupid, but it is so much easier to believe in some sort of conspiracy.

I would like to see anyone on this forum give a speech everyday and have every word they say in public recorded by the media, that would be fantastic.

now watch this drive

very well done.
it would kill 99.3% of the ppl on here to give a global speech, let alone a daily global speech.
however, he is a corrupt bullshit artist.
and he is far from stupid.

whats speech got to do with it? ask his teachers in school. look at his record. look at his complete failure to be a leader with 9/11 and Katrina. i'm not saying he was a complete idiot, but he definitely no higher than slightly above average intelligence.

but you would think after a few years in office the man would learn how to give a speech without fucking something up.

strategery.
