Proof that Bush is an ........interesting person.

[PackerBlues]

Anyone have any good Bush videos they want to share?

Here is a video of famous presidential speeches......It makes me proud to say that I did not vote for this guy.

This one is my all time favorite:

To be honest, I think theres a little bit of truth in there.

Propaganda.

While Bush is a pretty poor public speaker (which is by no means a correlation to intelligence), plenty of other presidents have made stupid mistakes in speeches, too. The thing is the internet and recording were not as prevalent 20, 30, 40, etc years ago to make these speeches so readily available to the public.

Bush is smarter than you'll ever be and has accomplished more as well. What makes you think he is an idiot and you are not?

Of course its just propaganda Partial. Its just meant to be funny. Bush did his undergrad at Yale and earned his MBA from Harvard. Thats pretty impressive. Most people in the know think his "average joe" act is an attempt to earn votes.

You're hardly one to call anybody an idiot though.

Do you feel a need to put everybody on this forum down?

No, I don't feel the need to put anyone down. I think calling our president an idiot is an absolutely moronic thing to do. He is a very smart and accomplished man. Unless Packer Blues name is Jesus H Packerblues, I don't think he has accomplished more than Bush and thus has no reason to put him down.

But of course you've accomplished far more than PackerBlues, and therefore have the right to put him down? And its okay for you to call someone moronic because they called someone else an idiot?

You have no idea what anyone else here has accomplished. Just because not everyone needs to brag about their guaranteed admission to a top ten grad school doesn't mean people here haven't accomplished things. It just means they aren't a braggart and a pompous ass like you.

I wouldn't call Bush an idiot. I might call him an incompetent President, a warmonger, or an authoritarian corporatist, but not an idiot.

[BallHawk]

The term idiot is used loosely. If you call somebody retarded does that make automatically make them retarded?

How many threads do we have that involve some people in particular unleashing personal attacks on people? It's not only boring, but utterly pointless. Insulting somebody over the internet isn't going to keep them up at night. But hell, if you need to insult people to stroke your ego and feel better about yourself, do it so it doesn't mess up the discussion for everybody else.

[HarveyWallbangers]

It's all idiotic. The thread. The same responses from the same people. The name-calling. The people that respond to the guy calling names--acting like they don't do the same. It's all idiotic.

Ah thats right. Lets not forget the self-righteous poster who's above political debate, but can't restrain from dropping in to let you know just how above it he is.

[HarveyWallbangers]

If there was debate, it would be cool. There isn't. It's boring. Hey, let's start another Bush thread. That's fine. I think it's a dumb thread whether it was a Bush or Clinton thread. I couldn't care less. I think it's idiotic when people start piling on the lone dissenting viewpoint with self-righteous pomposity. Re-read Partial's post, and tell me when he called somebody an idiot. Apparently, you can call somebody an idiot. When somebody responds saying that maybe you are the idiot. Your response is that the person shouldn't be calling somebody an idiot.

Harvey, I won't get in a debate over you with rhetoric. Partial said its moronic to call the president an idiot. My response was that its contradictory to say someone is moronic because they called someone an idiot.

My complaint with you is that you feel its a dumb thread, but have no problem dropping in to let everyone know how far this thread is below your standards.

[PackerBlues]

Its kind of funny, but if you go back and look at the original post in this thread, I simply asked if anyone had any Bush videos they wanted to share, and stated that I was proud that I did not vote for him. Falco posted a really funny video, and immediatly thereafter, Partial starts accusing people of calling Bush an idiot. Show me where anyone said the word "idiot" in this thread before Partial took the high road with his patriotic act. Not only did Partial bring up the whole "idiot" bs, but he followed it up by ranting about Bush being smarter than (whomever he was ranting at) will ever be. There were no attacks of any kind here until Partial started his rant.

Getting back to sharing videos of Bush, here is an Irish interview of Bush. I dont know if this one really would make anyone think that Bush is an idiot, but it sure does make him look like a dick.

I agree with Falco, if you don't like the thread, don't post in it.

I found this thread started by you HW pretty bizarre but I didn't feel the need to let you know it.
