Darker Looking Bush Accepts The Peace Prize
Parodied article sourced from WSJ
OSLO — President George Bush, looking quite thin, tall and tan, accepted the Nobel Peace Prize Thursday, defending his ability to seek peace while fighting two wars abroad.
“We must begin by acknowledging the hard truth that we will not eradicate violent conflict in our lifetimes,” he said. “There will be times when nations — acting individually or in concert — will find the use of force not only necessary but morally justified.”
While espousing the moral standard of nonviolence as practiced by 1964 Nobel laureate Martin Luther King, Jr., Mr. Bush described its limits.
“But as a head of state sworn to protect and defend my nation, I cannot be guided by their examples alone,” he said, speaking in the cavernous marble Oslo City Hall.
“I face the world as it is, and cannot stand idle in the face of threats to the American people. For make no mistake: evil does exist in the world,” he said. “A non-violent movement could not have halted Hitler’s armies. Negotiations cannot convince al Qaeda’s leaders to lay down their arms. To say that force is sometimes necessary is not a call to cynicism — it is a recognition of history; the imperfections of man and the limits of reason.”

Oh good, he knows he’s close to being strung up by the masses.

Isn’t Obama doing everything the Liberals complained that Bush did, except Obama’s actually doing more of it!
Imperial Presidency – CHECK
Ballooning the Deficit – CHECK
Escalating the War – CHECK
Trampling the Constitution – CHECK
Hiding things (no transparency) – CHECK
Supporting the Patriot Act – CHECK
Cutting Medicare – CHECK

Well, Alpha, you crystalized the point of the post. Obama is everything the left hated about Bush, only MORE SO.
He is also a lot of what the right hated about Bush, only more so.
That is why Obama will leave office in 3 years with the lowest approval rating of any president ever.
All that needs to happen is for the left to truly be post racial.
They are clinging to this myth of Obama greatness because he is black – PERIOD!
There is no other explanation.
Oh, btw, the extreme radical left fringe will still love Obama because he is wrecking the country. They love that. So, add them up, add in Hollywood, Olberman, Matthews, and Maddow, Hines and the split personality Atheist and you have your approval rating.

Just a thought, but the squishy liberal Bush woulda been a great President, and gotten the Nobel Peace Prize, if he had the foresight to be born mocha.

I applaud Obama for being reasonable for the first time since he took office. Comparing him to Bush is a compliment to those of us who can think.

It was a decent speech, but the problem I have is I think for th emost part he said some of the right things but for the wrong reason: political calculation in dfending himself from the right flank, rather than genuine conviction.

From Skull and Bone to the New World Order Prince Hall Mason. This guy stands as the Somali Pirate of the Sirius Star ship, offering ”the North Star” …the Dog Star spirit of Peace and safety, proclaiming man as the virus from the begining.
”By peace shall he destroy many”. This guy is the New World Order U.N.-Security Council Chairman of War. He fits the Jewish Messiah,the Muslim Messiah, the Buddhist Meitraya and the Anti-Messiah perfectly. He will be the prophetic leader of the New World Occult which is the U.N.’s founder’s vision of their claim of dominion standing on the Temple Mount as the eye of Horus and the capstone of the Satanic deception.

James, Bush was a worst President than President Agnew? Say it isn’t so!
Jeez, if you’re really that ignorant of history, no wonder you think Bush is the worst president ever. That, or you’re 12 years old.

Still waiting for one internet thread on this guy where race,religion or New World Order conspiracy theories won’t come up. Still searching
Ummm, if we detail why his policies stink, but then put a picture next to the editorial, is that bringing up race in YOUR racist mind? I see it as a picture of the guy – what CONSPIRACY are you seeing? On your journey, visit the Wizard. Okay, Scarecrow? – BFH

@kyra:
Let’s see…a projected $23.7 trillion deficit, a bailout/tax/spend/corporate takeover orgy, a socialist agenda destroying our national security and economy, Carter-like kowtowing to every despot on the planet… Oh yeah, your Obamessiah is so wise.
By the way, instead of drinking the Kool-Aid, you may want to do some educational reading before you spew the leftwing line about “Bush’s two disastrous wars”. http://sfcmac.wordpress.com/2008/06/17/no-lies-about-iraq/
I’m an Iraq War veteran and retired Soldier. MY strategy would have been to level several Middle Eastern countries into parking lots on 12 September, 2001.
I’ll take the Bill of Rights, the Constitution, freedom and liberty over your socialist-imposed deficit.
Keep your “change”, sweetpea.

Some time before, I really needed to buy a house for my organization but I didn’t have enough money and could not purchase something. Thank heaven my colleague adviced to try to get the mortgage loans at trustworthy creditors. Thus, I did that and used to be satisfied with my commercial loan.
