Who are these 28-percenters, and where are they?
"Bush Embraces Pause in Troop Cutbacks"
Just the wording of the headline bothers me, as if the mass-murdering monster is somehow human.
It's a deceptive headline, anyway!
There are MORE TROOPS now than BEFORE the "SURGE!!!"
"WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush on Thursday ordered an indefinite halt in U.S. troop withdrawals from Iraq after July, embracing the key recommendations of his top war commander. Bush said Gen. David Petraeus will ''have all the time he needs'' to consider when more American forces could return home....
Translation: We are NEVER LEAVING -- EVER!!!!
The president announced he will seek to relieve the heavy strain on the Army by reducing the length of combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan to 12 months, down from the current level of 15 months. He said the change would take effect on Aug. 1, and would not affect U.S. forces already deployed on the front lines....
Translation: "Fuck you, troops!
And HILLARY JUST PRAISED HIM FOR IT!
Iraq and the sagging economy have taken a heavy toll on the public's view of Bush. His job approval rating has fallen to just 28 percent, a new low in the Associated Press-Ipsos poll....
"'I've told him (Petraeus) he'll have all the time he needs,'' Bush said. ''Some have suggested that this period of evaluation will be a pause. That's misleading, because none of our operations in Iraq will be on hold. Instead we will use the months ahead to take advantage of the opportunities created by the surge and continue operations across the board.''
Translation: The DEATH and MASS-MURDERING SLAUGHTER will CONTINUE!
While acknowledging that ''serious and complex problems remain in Iraq,'' Bush said that ''a major strategic shift'' has occurred since the buildup.
''Today we have the initiative,'' the president said.
Are you tired of his LIES, yet, readers?
At a Capitol Hill news conference, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Bush's announcement on reducing combat tours was long overdue but that keeping troops committed to Iraq was unacceptable....
Yeah, I saw that and gave it all their complaints all consideration that was due.
Next!
Bush also called on Congress to send him a spending bill for Iraq that does not include any timetables for troop withdrawals or exceed the $108 billion he has requested....
Democrats are eyeing using this year's war funding bill to stimulate the economy with road-building funds, additional unemployment benefits, a summer jobs program and additional food stamp benefits. The measure is slated to advance later this spring.
Bush said he would veto the spending measure if Congress fails to meet his conditions....
Translation: "Fuck You, America!"
Bush used his speech to challenge Iran anew. He said the regime in Tehran has a choice to make: live in peace with its neighbor, or continue to fund and train militant groups that terrorize Iraqi people -- charges that the Tehran government denies.
Oh, NOW we see the point of it all! GET IRAN!
Never mind this fucking liar! Iran has a working relationship with the IRAQI GOVERNMENT, shitter, and THEIR LEADER doesn't have to SNEAK INTO the country!
''If Iran makes the right choice, America will encourage a peaceful relationship between Iran and Iraq,'' Bush said. ''Iran makes the wrong choice, America will act to protect our interests, and our troops, and our Iraqi partners.''
Expect some sort of MASSIVE FALSE-FLAG EVENT in iraq that kills many U.S. troops soon, readers!
Then AWAY WE GO!
After his remarks, Bush boarded a helicopter on the South Lawn to begin a journey to Texas for a weekend at his ranch....
Oh, I'm so happy the mass-murdering war criminal will be enjoying his weekend!
Any chance a sheriff or something can go arrest him?
Wanna see the asshole really go over the top with his lies?
"President Bush warned Iran today that if it did not stop arming and training Shia militia in Iraq then "America will act to protect our interests and our troops".
Mr Bush, during a speech in which he ordered an indefinite halt in US troop withdrawals from Iraq this summer, called Iran one of the two "greatest threats to America in this century" - together with al-Qaeda."
What, he can see FIFTY YEARS into the FUTURE now?
