President Bush, from an interview with Sean Hannity:
"Whether or not we can be ever fully safe is up -- you know, is up in the air. I would hope we could make it a lot more safe by staying on the offensive."Up in the air? What happened to Bush's legendary certainty? His resolute nature? Boy, you add this comment to some of his other recent whoppers and it's hard to understand how anyone could reward this guy with four more years. Remember, these are recent, so it's not like he's getting any smarter:
And just to spread the did-he-really-just-say-that? juice around, the interview with Hannity also contained the following exchange:October 24: "I wouldn't discount Michigan. I wouldn't discount the influence of Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota and New Mexico. I think this race is a nonpredictable race."
The president, prior to the Iraq invasion, as revealed by Pat Robertson on October 21: "Oh, no, we're not going to have any casualties."October 16: “After standing on the stage, after the debates, I made it very plain we will not have an all-volunteer army.” Listen to it here.
Debate #3: "Gosh, I just don't think I ever said I'm not worried about Osama Bin Laden. That's kind of one of those - exaggerations." Proven false here.
Debate #2: "Need some wood?" and "I hear there's rumors on the, uh, Internets."
October 6: "America saw two very different visions of our country and two different hairdos. I didn't pick my vice president for his hairdo." Yes, he did say that.
Debate #1: "You forgot Poland."
September 23: "I saw a poll that said the 'right track-wrong track' in Iraq was better than here in America." TDS: Escape From Mess-o-potamia.
September 17: "Free societies are hopeful societies. And free societies will be allies against these hateful few who have no conscience, who kill at the whim of a hat."
September 13: "Saddam Hussein paid the families of suiciders."
September 7: "Too many good docs are getting out of business. Too many OB/GYNs aren't able to practice their love with women all across this country."
September 4: "That's why I went to the Congress last September and proposed fundamental -- supplemental funding, which is money for armor and body parts and ammunition and fuel."
August 5: "Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we." Listen here.
Hannity: "Is it a reality that we could turn on our television sets one day, Fox News Channel I hope, and find out that America is ... that a nuclear weapon has gone off here?"Good to see Hannity has his priorities in mind: Ratings. It almost sounds as though he's rooting for the apocalypse. What a dick. It's also good to see Bush staying on message. That message? Scare the shit out of everyone.
Bush: "Yes it is."
