This is a poster for a new film Oliver Stone is making about Bush. I thought it was very funny, and remember Laura remarking how she'd even get mad at him for these. So all of you Bushies have to admit, even if you love him:
They. Are. Oh. So. True!

What are so true? That he said these things? I guess that's correct. That mockery and scorn is worthy of a quick chuckle? I suppose we do laugh when we mock, but whether that's worthy of us or not is another thing.

I compare stuff like this against similar stuff the right puts out. I remember those collections of Al Gore's sayings. Big difference: They were all lies (remember, he invented the internet, right?). I guess the best folks can do against W is just point a mocking finger of scorn and remind everyone of the times he misspoke.

Count me unimpressed of the latest Oliver Stone mockfest.

I think those are hilarious! Sometimes I just shake my head at what's been said.

Jay Leno and David Letterman always had President Bush's utterances to fall back upon during the writer's strike. They did not need touching up.

Keep your shirt on, Loudmouth. Right-wing, pro-Republican Rush Limbaugh is all about mockery that makes a point. It's not just us libs. I do find it distressing that our President is so ineloquent.

And please, let's not discuss lies in this thread...both sides are guilty of lies. Big lies, little lies, lies that cost lives.
