Bush Claims to Know What the American People Want

After spending a couple of hours at the Pentagon and deciding he wants $196 billion this time, Bush had the nerve to say, "The American people expect us to work together to support our troops. That's what they want," He continued blathering on, "They do not want the government to create needless uncertainty for those defending our country and uncertainty for their families. They do not want disputes in Washington to undermine our troops in Iraq just as they're seeing clear signs of success."

I haven't seen any clear signs of success. Have you? I never saw a reason to go over there in the first place as it was never proven to me or anyone I know that Iraq was responsible for 9/11. Did you see a connection there? Nope...me neither. I thought he used the revenge platform to invade. I know Bush wanted to kill Hussein before people took him seriously in his rantings, so I saw the fastest trial and execution I ever did see. Hell, it was even speedier than Timothy McVeigh. I have seen clear signs of gas prices higher than I've ever seen them and groceries too expensive to buy to feed my family, so I don't know exactly what Bush means when he touts the sound economy or spouts off about what the American people want. He does not know what we want anymore than he cares what we want. The man couldn't find his ass with both hands, so why doesn't he just shut up?

Maybe he just needs to be told to shut up, kinda like my mother-in-law. That woman tends to prattle on about nothing whether anyone is listening or not. When my father-in-law was alive, he would let her go on so long, but when he got sick of listening to her or saw people start looking at their watches, he would very loudly tell her to shut up and she would cease talking immediately, I don't care if she was mid-syllable. My father-in-law died two years ago and while I didn't appreciate him when he was alive, I sure miss him now. My mother-in-law hasn't stopped talking since he died and like Bush, she really needs to be told to shut up.
