It does offend me. Call me crazy, but I don't like the idea of having a a president who tosses the term "mother-fucker" around and uses racist language so casually. If Bush ever used this kind of language, please provide me with a clip of it. I'd like to hear it. Until then, I will assume that he never spoke this way.
Sure. I also understand when someone is using gutter language, no matter whether he's reading it or repeating what someone else said. A lot of people wouldn't have put that kind of language in their book to begin with, but Obama did. That says a lot about him.
Not really. But you're entitled to your opinion! Who's the chick in your avatar? I have to google her.
"The Constitution is just a goddamn piece of paper" "Tell them to stop doing this shit" “[Dick Cheney is a] lying, do-nothing sack of shit" "[Chief of Staff Josh Bolten is] a cock-sucker son-of-a-bitch" "There's Adam Clymer, major-league asshole from The New York Times." "You fucking son of a bitch. I saw what you wrote. We’re not going to forget this." - Bush to then Wall Street Journal Washington bureau chief Al Hunt in a Dallas restaurant in front of other diners, including Hunt’s wife, Judy Woodruff, and 4-year-old son In interviews with a number of White House staffers who were willing to talk off the record, a picture of an administration under siege has emerged, led by [Bush] who declares his decisions to be ‘God’s will’ and then tells aides to ‘fuck over’ anyone they consider to be an opponent of the administration….

"He uses the 'F' word as an adjective, a verb, and a noun," says one adviser. Ditto for the "S" word. But not often in anger. "It's more conversational," adds the insider, "like how guys talk." Bush has been known to use salty language. At the Republican National Convention in 1988, he was asked by a Hartford Courant reporter about what he and his father talked about when they weren't talking about politics. "Pussy," Bush replied. “That’s who this president is,” said Press Secretary Tony Snow. “A little randy at times. But a tough customer, and he speaks his mind." <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SeJmmQ5y9eQ&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SeJmmQ5y9eQ&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
It would seem you are right, Karl Malone's Elbows. I had no idea Bush talked like that. Makes me think less of him, for sure. Both he and Obama claim to be Christians, and yet they speak like foul-mouthed punks. Pretty sad.
Bush spent his 20's and 30's unemployed, was arrested multiple times, and reportedly abused (not dabbled in) alcohol and cocaine. How can you stand up for that guy and now criticize BO for a book he wrote confessing the comparatively minor sins of his youth? CME's links aren't some new revelation. Where have you been? STOMP
Gee, I guess you're right. Obama is a saint, compared to Bush. He only did dope and coke, hung out with terrorists, racists, and hate-mongers, got favors from the mob in Chicago, and threw his friends under the bus when it became politically necessary. Crawl back in your hole, STOMP.
Oh TH you're so funny (and confused) when you get mad. Where did I say Barack was a saint? Please show me the quote. Bush was a well know waste of space as a young adult. He was a drunk, a drunk driver, and a coke head. He went AWOL from his sweet gig with the National Guard that allowed him to dodge the draft, and he enjoyed his 20's and 30's without a job. None of that garnered any criticism from you. But Obama writing a book about bad things he did in his late teens/early 20's to show where he's come from "says a lot about him"... seems like a double standard you've got going. I'm the one who lives in a hole when you claim ignorance on common knowledge facts about the guy you've been trumpeting for the last 8 years TH you do good irony! STOMP
Colbert got caught in his lie! BTW...Welcome to the forums Karl Malones Elbows...quality posts so far (and a few crazy ones ) I guess "Karl Malone's knee to the nut sack" was too long for a screen name
It says he made a well written, honest book. As mook said, it will go down as the greatest presidential autobiography of all time, and the reason for that was his honesty. It's a ridiculously well written book. Although I guess Obama could have classsed it up a bit. "I'm not your chambermaid, you have the financial means to purchase your own delicious fries!" But then it wouldn't have been honest, and thus wouldn't have been so great.
Does it say anything in the Bible about saying "fuck" or "******" as a sin. I'm pretty certain the Bible says usinbg those in a hurtful manner towards other is a sin, not using specific words.
I think this is how Shooter wishes it was said (only playing Shooter) : "My dear friend. This situation strikes me odd. While it is true that you and I are friends, I do not believe it is my responsibility to purchase those fries for you. While it's true that I have in the past purchased fries and other various fast food items for my girlfriend (who is now my wife), that does not mean that I will do the same for you. Even if you are my brother in law. I do hope that you can see the difference between the our relationship, as friends, as that of the relationship that I have with my wife, as she is my lover. I am not your boyfriend, and you sir, are not my girlfriend. Please accept my humblest apologize if there has been any confusion between the two of us, as it was not my intent. If it would please you, I can loan you the money that it takes to buy the fries, and you can pay me back in a timely manner, and an agreed upon interest rate."
or Dick Cheney who in 2005 famously told Sen. Patrick Leahy on the Senate floor to "go fuck yourself" is that how you class up the white house? STOMP
