Is this from ScrappleFace or The Onion? He can't be growing a backbone now.

[PatriotGirl827]

I'm so glad he stood up for himself. Very refreshing!

Bush said. 'The terrorists concluded that we lacked the courage and character to defend ourselves and so they attacked us.'

Tough to argue with that.

But I'm sure the 'toon will, and with gusto.

[popdonnelly]

Thanks to President Bush for stating what should be obvious, and evidently isn't.

[cubreporter]

I was sitting in my kitchen drinking a cup of hot coffee when President Bush made that statment and I CHEERED! I said out loud and LOUD: "Good for YOU George.!!!!" He's right. clintin stood by and diddled all those times we were attacked. Bush was right to call him on it. I LOVED it. Take that clintin...you jerk!

'The terrorists saw our response to the hostage crisis in Iran, the bombings in the Marine barracks in Lebanon, the first World Trade Center attack, the killing of American soldiers in Somalia, the destruction of two U.S. embassies in Africa and the attack on the USS Cole,' Bush said. 'The terrorists concluded that we lacked the courage and character to defend ourselves and so they attacked us.'

Bold equals what happened on Clinton's watch...

[Lucky2]

Finally, he spoke up and defended himself! I didn't think we'd ever see it!

'The terrorists saw our response to the hostage crisis in Iran, the bombings in the Marine barracks in Lebanon, the first World Trade Center attack, the killing of American soldiers in Somalia, the destruction of two U.S. embassies in Africa and the attack on the USS Cole,' Bush said. 'The terrorists concluded that we lacked the courage and character to defend ourselves and so they attacked us.'

YES !!

[TomGuy]

'bout time!

Could have been a tad stronger -- tell ole BJ to get off the stage and stay in retirement.

'The terrorists concluded that we lacked the courage and character to defend ourselves and so they attacked us.'

He's starting to sound like the man we voted for again.

[Jim Robinson]

Peace through superior firepower!

Or another way of saying it:

George W. Bush... Saving your ass whether you like it or not!

This encompasses Carter, Reagan and Clinton but if you look at it the majority were under Clinton. I'd say a dash of Truth from intended by him to be introduced to the fiction of media accounts, but clearly detailing the extent to which this happened under Clinton is a shot back.

[SunnyD1182]

Wow. He actually struck back against Clinton. Hell has frozen over.

[doug from upland]

IT IS ABOUT FREAKING TIME!

[Solamente]

Next, I want to see him stand up for himself and FEMA, and set the record straight!

I love Dubya, but he's turned the other cheek too many times.

Screw the New Tone!

[kimosabe31]

[OldFriend]

GO W GO

[SquirrelKing]

Way to go, Dubya.

The MSM will be "reeling" from the mean-spiritedness and shameless pettiness of this comment against such a hard-working and beloved former president.

[TravisBickle]

Direct Hit!

[jbwbubba]

Now he needs to bitch slap some elitist republicans.
