That is one of B\/$|-| 2's most imfamous comments.
The funny thing is, theY DID BRING IT ON. And they killed A LOTof americans.
Here is fox's official list, from May 10th 2004 to Dec 31, 2004
From Mission Accomplished to Wednesday, 5 May, 2004, this is the BBC's list.
This is the Washington Post's list, showing the soldier's faces (use te scroll button to go through)
The numbers of the wounded vary wildly, but it is above ten THOUSAND since "mission accomplished"
Dont tell me Im not supporting the troops, because I AM. Im just not supporting them blindly. I support the troops, NOT the leader.
Anyway, here are some of my other favrite Bush quotes:
"You've heard Al Gore say he invented the internet.
Well, if he was so smart, why do all the addresses begin with "W"?"
"I know how hard it is for you to put food on your family"
"Rarely is the Queston asked: Is our children Learning?"
"For NASA, space is still a high priority"
"[Its] time for the Human race to enter the solar system"
"Its your money. You paid for it."
"The most important job is not to be govenor, or first lady in my case."
Well, thats it for now. Next Up: The PATRIOT ACT.

Haha, that's funny. Bush has terrible English, but that doesn't make him a bad person. The "Bring It ON!" was a GOOD statement though. What should we have said? "Go away, we won't fight you even if you attack us?"
Yeah, eric. I definitely agree. Besides, they did kill some americans. We beat the shit out of them though. They didn't bring it on. They used insurgency warfare cheaty-head cheapo tactics to kill some people. W/E. War always has people killed. Find me a war where one side had no casualties. In order for evil to be restrained, some must give their lives. Tell me, was the American Revolution worth fighting? Was it right for France to help us fight that war? If you answered yes to both, alan, you're officially a hypocrite. This war is no different from the iraq war. England was a tyrant. Saddam was a tyrant. Both countries were freed from the grasp of a tyrant. I see no difference.
Cold War
Im NOT saying that Saddam Wasn't a tyrant, He was. BUT, Bush LIED about why he was a tyrant. He DID gas ppl. 10 years ago. With OUR weapons (from your friend Reagan).
How is guerilla war unfair? Do you want peple to line up in firing lines? It is How war Will be fought FROM NOW ON. When you are under powered, have no weapons, and are outnumbered, BUT still want to fight for your cause, You do ALL you can, wether or NOT that means IEDs, Suicide, Whatever it takes. without "insurgency warfare cheaty-head cheapo tactics", we wuld be British (not that thats a BAD thing...)
Also, you do have to realize the irony of "Mission Accomplished" and then mulitple THOUSANDS dying AFTER that.
Once again, the World is NOT B&W.
Okay, let me rephrase. Find me one war where shots were actually fired where nobody died on both sides. Guerilla warfare is not unfair. However, these "insurgents" are not following the rules of war. They can take cover and hide all they want, but they aren't an army. It's similar to a gang of bandits running around downtown killing people. Or better yet, very similar to the KKK. It's not quite the same. Don't tell me Saddam only gassed people ten years ago. He did it all through this era. And, how did Bush lie? He was wrong, but he didn't intentionally mislead the American public. Kerry had the same intelligence as he did, and they both voted Yes. I agree it's ironic that after Mission Accomplished men still died. Nobody expceted that. At the very least, you can't blame it on Bush. It was not Bush alone that made the decision for war. The Congress had to vote on it, too. Bush's first term, dems controlled congress, and so obviously a lot of Democrats thought it was a good plan too. Also, when did any of us ever say the world was Black and White? You use that expression over and over instead of actually making a point. Obviously, you think saying that "oh i'm sophisticated because I see the gray area" is gonna make you win the argument. It doesn't. All that does is make you think you see something that nobody else does. I guarantee that's the case.
*I guarantee that's not the case.
Wait, Did I say that I was sophisticated because there IS a Grey area?
Not that I know of. Im just pointing out that The VAST MAJORITY of Americans DONT realze that there is Grey. That, or they ignore that.
"The Rules of war" is an OXYMORON. War with Rules? Pfffttt. And you cant honestly say that Guantanamo bay, of Abu Grahaib was 'fair' or 'followed the rules of war'
The Democrats NEVER have had control of congress. At BEST they have like, 55%. Thats NOT control. It IS a majortiy, but it Isnt control. Also, at the beggining of the Bush II term, it was just after Clinton, so the Democrats DID NOT have Anywhere NEAR control of congress Or the House.
The "Congress had to vote" crap is just that. Crap. If Bush hadn't pressed for war, we wouldn't have gone. He DID have hints from the CIA (which Kerry DIDN't Have) suggesting that the "intelligence" wasn't so intelligent.
It WAS Bush who said "Mission accomplished"
The Irony Isnt the fact that people died after Mission Accomplished, People Always die in the war AFTer the war (remeber the war of 1818, major battle AFTER the war?) It was the sheer Numbers of the wounded and dead.
Remember the lack of weapons? Saddam cant gas people if he desnt have anything to gas them with! He DIDn't have anything to gas them with. The "intelligence" on him gassing people was long since outdated. Long ago.
With "Bring it On", Lets take Pearl Harbor (Even though your knowledge of WWI is sadly lacking. UBouats==Landing craft? WTF? or russian nuclear subs. Pfft) When FDR was attacked, he didnt say bring it on, he said that it was "A day that will live in imfamy"(those were his EXACT words) He didnt Say "Come back here PUNK!" because he KNEW that men would die. THey already Had. The "Bring it on" statement is something that an 18-year-old Gangster would say, NOT the President of the USA. it is Really terrible english fo ANYONE over 20, nevertheless over 40 and at the head of a country.
Back to the Congress thing. You know what is hypocrisy? When Clinton was in Office (1st term), the Democrats Did have a majority. Then, The republicans Say "Having the same party with in the white house and Congress is bad." then they regain control.
When Bush 2 is here, Not A peep, even though the same party is in Congress and the White House. Hypocrisy at its BEST.
The "Congress had to vote" crap is just that. Crap. If Bush hadn't pressed for war, we wouldn't have gone. He DID have hints from the CIA (which Kerry DIDN't Have) suggesting that the "intelligence" wasn't so intelligent.
Are you saying that congress had no say? And, can you prove to me that Bush had hints? Last time i checked, he's innocent til proven guilty.
"The Rules of war" is an OXYMORON. War with Rules? Pfffttt. And you cant honestly say that Guantanamo bay, of Abu Grahaib was 'fair' or 'followed the rules of war'
You're right. We should be allowed to do whatever we want, kill whoever we want, and bomb whatever we want. In fact, let's take that into the real world. Let's just legalize murder.
Remember the lack of weapons? Saddam cant gas people if he desnt have anything to gas them with! He DIDn't have anything to gas them with. The "intelligence" on him gassing people was long since outdated. Long ago.
We gave him a decently long time to dispose of weapons. We passed the final resolution that said serious consequences would be administered, and over the span of 13 years of "negotiations", he could have moved them out at any time.
With "Bring it On", Lets take Pearl Harbor (Even though your knowledge of WWI is sadly lacking. UBouats==Landing craft? WTF? or russian nuclear subs.

If you think bush didn't say anything like "this day will be infamous and i regret it", then you're sadly mistaken. Even still, I would much rather have a president who is agressive in the protection of our country and others.
Then, The republicans Say "Having the same party with in the white house and Congress is bad." then they regain control.
Find me a quote. I don't remember anybody saying that it's bad. Besides, we're all guilty of hipocricy, but some definitely more than others. *hem hem*. The democrats are the ones who get up there and talk about how unfair it is that all these people have all this money and don't want to let you live off of them, when in fact Kerry had his money arranged in ways that made him pay the least tax possible. When he's telling rich people to pay more, why doesn't he follow his own advice? Also, if we're gonna talk hipocricy, look at Clinton. Flat out lies. One specific incident comes to mind. Also, Kerry told plenty of lies too. He was talking about how SUVs were bad, and when asked if he owned one he said no. However, he did own one, and later claimed that "it was his wife's car", as if legally he and his wife didn't share assets. Also, Kerry lied about getting his spray on tan. These are lies that can actually be proven. Your claim that bush lied to the country and is involved in a big conspiracy is completely BS made up just to attempt to justify your own point of view. If you're going to argue conspiracy theories all the time, then there's no point in even trying to argue. It's like the quote from star wars... "You're asking me to be rational, and taht's something i can't do!" At least be rational and practical in your thought.
Republicans earn, Democrats burn.
Oh forgot to mention. I never claimed that all wars follow the rules. Wars are all SUPPOSED to follow the rules of war. You can't claim that they are an Oxymoron... You're the guys who are always spouting off about the Geneva (spelling) Convention, which is a HUUUUGE part of the rules of war.
All is fair in love and war
Nobody died when Clinton lied (or Kerry for that matter)
Also, with the Geneva Convention and the rules of war, yes you are supposed to follow them. But nobody does. Why is it that, conveniently, the loser ALWAYS has so many war crimes? think about it, If we had lsot the Iraq war, Abu Graihb would have damaged Bush A LOT. (he still should have officially apoligized for it[to Iraq, no mater how 'evil' they are], instead of blowing it off)
