Besides being guilty of a sham turkey, GW is really guilty of using a dangling participle in his 2003 state of the union speech re Iraq! It is time to impeach him for leaving a dangling participle in his Sotus 2003 Speech!

This is the biggest non-story since the media's feeding-frenzy (no pun intended) over the alleged "RATS" subliminal message in the 2000 campaign ad.

Then again, I could be hallucinating

And how about the non-starter from a couple of days ago, "Seven-Year old corrects President". They are pathetic.

HA!!!! I wondered right on this forum what kind of nitpicking would go on about that Baghdad trip. I knew that the DemocRATS were working sleepless nights to come up with something. Talk about grasping at straws. I'm LMAO.

But is this ALL they can come up with? A "fake" turkey...or no was it a "dressed" turkey? I wasn't for eating, huh. I bet somebody ate it later. It was a good looking fake though, I have to admit.

A photo Op? OF COURSE IT WAS A PHOTO OP!! So What. You think the DemocRATS are not doing photo ops? (not you Grim) What was Hellery doing over there. You want Bush to declare that he won't do photo ops??? That would put him at a disadvantage for re-election. I wouldn't do that just because some bunch of DemocRATS might call it a photo op. To heck with 'em.

You have to love the idiot title of this spew. Since when did a Turkey put out as decoration become the personal property of our President? It implies that our President decorated the table himself. The next thing they will think about complaining about is that the President choice in house color lacks imagination because it's just plain white.

The Democratic Party has nine of them running for President.

TEN, with Lyndon La Rouche!

Okay, so the turkey wasn't really for eating, giving our leftist media a nit to pick. Factoring this in, the final score of the president's visit to Iraq is as follows:

President Bush, the troops, the nation: 3,687

The Left: 1

Nevertheless, the foray has opened new credibility questions for a White House

Oh, it has, has it? You mean other than from pathetic whiners like this author?

2000 election campaign. Connecticut River. ...During a drought, where they wouldn't release water for the river fish.
