President Bush's Resignation speech
E-Mail | UNK | UNK

Posted on 06/24/2008 9:26:23 AM PDT by jmpmstr4u2

Any one who votes or even talks about the election should read this. THIS IS FANTASTIC, MAKE SURE YOU READ EVERY WORD AND REGARDLESS WHAT YOU THINK OF BUSH, WHOEVER WROTE THIS IS 100% ON THE MONEY.

BUSH'S RESIGNATION SPEECH

The following 'speech' was written recently by an ordinary Maineiac [a resident of the People's Republic of Maine ]. While satirical in nature, all satire must have a basis in fact to be effective. This is an excellent piece by a person who does not write for a living.

The speech George W. Bush might give:

Normally, I start these things out by saying 'My Fellow Americans.' Not doing it this time. If the polls are any indication, I don't know who more than half of you are anymore. I do know something terrible has happened, and that you're really not fellow Americans any longer.

I'll cut right to the chase here: I quit. Now before anyone gets all in a lather about me quitting to avoid impeachment, or to avoid prosecution or something, let me assure you: There's been no breaking of laws or impeachable offenses in this office.

The reason I'm quitting is simple. I'm fed up with you people. I'm fed up because you have no understanding of what's really going on in the world. Or of what's going on in this once-great nation of ours. And the majority of you are too damned lazy to do your homework and figure it out.

Let's start local. You've been sold a bill of goods by politicians and the news media. Polls show that the majority of you think the economy is in the tank. And that's despite record numbers of homeowners, including record numbers of MINORITY homeowners. And while we're mentioning minorities, I'll point out that minority business ownership is at an all-time high. Our unemployment rate is as low as it ever was during the Clinton administration. I've mentioned all those things before, but it doesn't seem to have sunk in.

Despite the shock to our economy of 9/11, the stock market has rebounded to record levels and more Americans than ever are participating in these markets. Meanwhile, all you can do is whine about gas prices, and most of you are too damn stupid to realize that gas prices are high because there's increased demand in other parts of the world, and because a small handful of noisy idiots are more worried about polar bears and beachfront property than your economic security.

We face real threats in the world. Don't give me this 'blood for oil' thing. If I were trading blood for oil I would've already seized Iraq 's oil fields and let the rest of the country go to hell. And don't give me this 'Bush Lied; People Died' crap either. If I were the liar you morons take me for, I could've easily had chemical weapons planted in Iraq so they could be 'discovered.' Instead, I owned up to the fact that the intelligence was faulty.

Let me remind you that the rest of the world thought Saddam had the goods, same as me. Let me also remind you that regime change in Iraq was official US policy before I came into office. Some guy named ' Clinton ' established that policy. Bet you didn't know that, did you? Now some of you morons are considering another and more evil Clinton for president !!!! Go figure that one!! She wants to take your kids away and let the ' Whole Village ' raise them! i.e. governmental indoctrination .. Look this one up you dumb asses!

The rest of you morons want to be led by a junior senator with no understanding of foreign policy or economics, and this nitwit says we should attack Pakistan , a nucular ally. And then he wants to go to Iran and make peace with a terrorist who says he's going to destroy us. While he's doing that, he wants to give Iraq to al Qaeda, Afghanistan to the Taliban, Israel to the Palestinians, and your money to the IRS so the government can give welfare to illegal aliens, who he will make into citizens, so they can vote to reelect him. He also thinks it's okay for Iran to have nucular weapons, and we should stop our foreign aid to Israel. Did you sleep through high school?

You idiots need to understand that we face a unique enemy. Back during the cold war, there were two major competing political and economic models squaring off. We won that war, but we did so because fundamentally, the Communists wanted to survive, just as we do. We were simply able to out spend and out-tech them.

That's not the case this time. The soldiers of our new enemy don't care if they survive. In fact, they want to die. That'd be fine, as long as they weren't also committed to taking as many of you with them as they can. But they are. They want to kill you, and the bastards are all over the globe.

You should be grateful that they haven't gotten any more of us here in the United States since September 11. But you're not. That's because you've got no idea how hard a small number of intelligence, military, law enforcement, and homeland security people have worked to make sure of that. When this whole mess started, I warned you that this would be a long and difficult fight. I'm disappointed how many of you people think a long and difficult fight amounts to a single season of 'Survivor.'

Instead, you've grown impatient. You're incapable of seeing things through the long lens of history, the way our enemies do. You think that wars should last a few months, a few years, tops.

Making matters worse, you actively support those who help the enemy. Every time you buy the New York Times, every time you send a donation to a cut-and-run Democrat's political campaign, well, dang it, you might just as well FedEx a grenade launcher to a Jihadist. It amounts to the same thing.

In this day and age, it's easy enough to find the truth. It's all over the Internet. It just isn't on the pages of the New York Times, USA Today, or on NBC News. But even if it were, I doubt you'd be any smarter. Most of you would rather watch American Idol or Dancing with Stars.

I could say more about your expectations that the government will always be there to bail you out, even if you're too stupid to leave a city that's below sea level and has a hurricane approaching.

I could say more about your insane belief that government, not your own wallet, is where the money comes from. But I've come to the conclusion that were I to do so, it would sail right over your heads.

So I quit. I'm going back to Crawford. I've got an energy-efficient house down there (Al Gore could only dream) and the capability to be fully self-sufficient for years. No one ever heard of Crawford before I got elected, and as soon as I'm done here pretty much no one will ever hear of it again. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to die of old age before the last pillars of America fall.

Oh, and by the way, Cheney's quitting too. That means Pelosi is your new President. You asked for it. Watch what she does carefully, because I still have a glimmer of hope that there are just enough of you remaining who are smart enough to turn this thing around in 2008.

So that's it. God bless what's left of America .

Some of you know what I mean. The rest of you, kiss off.

PS - You might want to start learning Farsi, and buy a Koran.

“You should be grateful that they haven’t gotten any more of us here in the United States since September 11.”

Considering the borders should have been effectively secured on 9/12, I’d say he’s the one who should be grateful we haven’t lost the WOT in our own backyards. Yet.

Yeah, well, check the election polling at Rasmussen and Real Clear Politics.

America is teetering on the brink of an anti-American, pro-Islamic socialist as President.

Two main reasons:

George Bush II
John McCain

It's like some of you people have been fast asleep for years.

Bush will go down as probably the worst president in history based on our lawless, chaotic, borders alone, which have become a national security nightmare, and an utter national disgrace.

You seen all threads lately from the few supporters he has left? The only thing they seem concerned about is this guys legacy?

Everyday now we're seeing them.

I got news for ya, none of them will help this guys legacy.

The true verdict of history will happen in 50-100 years, and will be written by the Chinese. If Bush is succeeded by Obama, he will be book-ended by Clinton and the disaster of Obama. The chaotic and open borders will only be one facet of this. The economic destruction wrought by Obama will be the most salient factor.

first I voted for him twice..and got what i deserve
open borders
massive government programs
massive government debt
illegals stealing government services
loss of private property rights
loss of millions of manufacturing jobs
gutting of our manufacturing base
billions spent for Foreign aid (aids in africa)

on the plus,,no new 9/11’s, Iraq Saddam's government gone,
libya disarmed, lower taxes..and 2 new supreme court justices who might just be better than average.time will tell.

I do not know what history will show, but I do know I will not vote the lesser of two evils again,never again.

On the contrary history will not be kind to George W. Bush. The imaginary Bush painted in this fantasy 'resignation speech' doesn't exist and never existed.
This Administration began with great promise but was sabotaged from the beginning by the Clintonistas and Gorebots who challenged and delayed the transition long enough so that larger than average numbers of liberals, leftists and common variety 'Rats were able to remain in their entrenched positions within the federal bureaucracy, and our new President actually encouraged it, do the names 'Norman Mineta' and 'George Tenet' ring a bell?

Oh there have been some positive improvements due to this Administration, the first of which was the restoration of dignity and integrity to the Executive Branch. I have never once wondered in all of these past eight years if George W. Bush had some fat azz slut of an intern whiffing on his woofer in the Oval Office like his depraved predecessor did, and I never once saw that President laughing and joking one moment and suddenly 'turning on the tears' to fit the occasion as one William Jefferson Blythe Clinton did (and was captured on video, it's on Google and most people have seen it). George W. Bush is a sincere man, sometimes (especially in this second term) sincerely WRONG, but he's sincere in what he thinks.

Post 9/11, I think President Bush provided the leadership necessary, the inspiration Americans needed, and I was in the front row of his cheerleaders supporting him. He liberated Afghanistan from the grip of the Taliban after they refused to turn over Osama bin Asshole, and they paid the price for miscalculating American resolve (a brief information footnote: it has been long forgotten now, but in August of 2001, there was a news story on the wires about the Russian government filing a note of protest with the Taliban for 'naming Osama bin Laden the commander-in-chief of their military forces', essentially making OBL an Afghanistan government official. I mention it only for the benefit of the chowderheads who try to claim that we had no justification for military strikes on Afghanistan).

When it came to Iraq, he had every justification to take out Saddam and his scumbag sons, based on a.) U.S. policy making regime change the official position of our Government, indeed enacted by the Clintonista misAdministration, and b.) Saddam's continued defiance of U.N. sanctions (to which the U.S. was a signatory), and Saddam's persistent firing upon U.S. planes enforcing the no-fly zones. Anyone who thinks that Iraq would be better off with Saddam in place hasn't considered the ramifications of having not one, but THREE nations in that region (Iran, Iraq AND Libya) pursuing a nuclear weapons capability, because you can be sure that Saddam would not have allowed Ahmadinnerjacket to acquire an advantage over Iraq, Saddam knew all too well what happened during the Carter-instigated Iran-Iraq War that lasted eight years, Iraq got their ass handed to them for their trouble.

Unfortunately in this second Bush term, we have seen our Commander-in-Chief lose his focus and his resolve. Instead of aggressively going after the other two legs of that 'Axis of Evil' he told us about (you all remember it was Iran and North Korea, right?), he decided to let the peace-at-any-price zombies at the State Department run the show, and that is why that phuckwit appeaser Christopher Hill is practically giving back rubs to Kim Jong Il in hopes of 'improving relations', and Condi-the-Piano-Player is talking up the idea of opening an 'American interests section' in Iran, even while America and Iran remain in a technical state of war based upon the Assahollah Khomeini and his thugs invading, violating and occupying our embassy in 1979, which was and remains: U.S. soil.

Just because Jimmy Carter spent the last year or so of his abortive Presidency with his thumb rectally inserted in himself, doesn't mean that once 9/11 took place, that George W. Bush did not have the means or the justification to take out the Islamofascist garbage in Tehran. And he should have.

I haven't even begun to touch on the fiscal irresponsibility of this Administration, and despite the fact that we are at war, there has been nothing but spending like a bunch of drunken sailors, and our President apparently was unable to find that veto pen until REALLY late in the game.

Likewise, the failure to effectively shut down our porous borders and round up the illegals running amok is something that history will not just be unkind to George W. Bush about, history is going to condemn and savage him for it.

All this Administration had to do was to put somebody like Congressman Duncan Hunter in charge of the Department of Homeland Security instead of Michael 'Skeletor' Chertoff, and people? We would have secure borders today and illegals would be getting shipped out of America and back to whatever place they call home.

Over 60 million Muslims are now breathing free air thanks to George W. Bush liberating Afghanistan and Iraq in his first term, too bad the Iranian people and the North Korean people got the short end of the stick in his second term.

There's still a few months left, but if Iran is going to be dealt with, it will have to be by our one true ally in the region, and that's Israel.

And nobody is going to deal with North Korea, Comrade Chia Pet is laughing his ass off at George W. Bush and you can bet on that.

Some legacy.

How did you like that recent Habius Corpus ruling by the Supreme Court? The next president will appoint at least 3 justices that will rule on such things for the following 10-20 years.

Who would you rather appoint those justices, McCain or Obama?

Very smart, politically. McCain's going to win in November because he's been able to pick up Hillary supporters that are bitter about Obama. McCain is far from the conservative we wanted, but he did have a reasonably conservative voting record before 2000 when he had to "rebrand" himself.

I know some lefties who are going to vote for McCain this November. They realize that Obama is not up to the presidency (mildly rational liberals - imagine that!) and they find McCain palatable.

Conservatives see a choice between middle-of-the-road and rabid Marxism. And it's not just the next four years that concern me; it's the justices and legal precedents that will last for decades.

“.... and this nitwit says we should attack Pakistan , a nucular ally. And then he wants to go to Iran and make peace with a terrorist who says he’s going to destroy us. While he’s doing that, he wants to give Iraq to al Qaeda, Afghanistan to the Taliban, Israel to the Palestinians, and your money to the IRS so the government can give welfare to illegal aliens, who he will make into citizens, so they can vote to reelect him. He also thinks it’s okay for Iran to have nucular weapons, and we should stop our foreign aid to Israel.”

Agreed. Despite the criticism leveled at Bush (much of it deserved, BTW) I think once all the dust settles Bush will be judged to have been a good president for 1) his steadfastness against terrorists and 2) his judicial picks.

If I remember correctly, at the time, the Repub’s were trying to show how much they were willing to “get along” and so confirmed a radical leftist judge. The left could be counted on to fight tooth and nail in opposition to a constructionist nominee. The right just rolls over and plays dead. And we’ve been sliding down that slippery slope ever since.

The problem with the Ginsburg vote was that Republicans played by the rules. The rules say that the President picks who he wants and only a major flaw other than ideology can cause the Senate to disqualify the candidate.

On the one hand, Dole and McCain did the right thing by approving her, one the other, Republicans should have learned from the "Bork Experience" to cheat like Democrats.

Would McCain be a useful maverick, he'd a voted against Buzzy and not been part of the gang of 14.

I'm a maverick too, just wait and see.

He’s a ghost, don’t attempt contact.

He’s dead to his country... and we don’t do dead voters.

If he doesn’t care for what’s left and can’t counter a vote for that horror on the other side, he’s worse than useless. Then to have the cojones to come and distress others... as they wonder what happened to the party. The ‘woe is me I voted for him’ doesn’t do crap with this moment and today.

I’d like to hear the wonderful outcome of if they had voted for the opponent and how great it would be now, a little imagined revisionist history, might as well.

They can’t wait to get on their knees for Obama... and tell their kids to sleep tight, they just couldn’t vote the lesser of two evils, as they go to the bread line, get a wonderful communist education and live as true slaves. If we’re lucky we’ll get a one child policy or off elders and the disabled when the socialist healthcare kicks in.

What the hell, they probably wouldn’t be around, who cares?

Let’s be clear, I know about McCain’s demons, I have the recordings, I know the hell and can’t stand him. But i’ll be damned if I hand over to my kids and grandkids a Marxist Islamist mole. I know this election was set-up from the start and most were globalists. Do I say ‘oh well, the people don’t have any say and the media’s electing them, why vote’? Hell no. People died for that vote whether I ‘feel’ like voting or not. So that I can’t tell my kid I voted for McCain with a straight face doesn’t wash (but telling them how you aided the others win and tearing apart the country is better I guess, when they asked why didn’t you do something). Doesn’t this country deserve a proper vetting, do we just let anyone stroll in this country who doesn’t know what Memorial Day and uses wrong examples on presidents meeting with tyrants (wrong and horrible examples btw), straight out of a CAIR history book, separates this country by race, class, religion? Who is this guy... we know he lies way above any pol and is from the machine. Doesn’t at least your country deserve better period? No matter who you do and don’t like. This guy wants one debate... have you ever heard of that? Coast right on in on division while everyone gives up and puts their spines on the cocktail table. People need to go to the southside and see the wreckage done to his so-called ‘own’ people, how they froze and buildings got condemned while he got big donations from the ‘broke’ contractors/managers. Imagine him with a country. And those thinking ‘oh after four years they’ll beg for us to be in’, we don’t have that luxury now... they need to open their eyes.

I love protest voters, it accounts for the wonderful state we’re in on the hill now. Those who were bulldogs are stepping down because they have no help, some we stood by and helped the dems take out. Everytime we call for one in D.C., at a MSM location, the UN, embassy, no one wants to come. Every town has representatives and press close to them, nothing stops them. Sure we work, but it’s important to make your voice heard on an issue, sadly most conservatives and republicans don’t answer the call.
This is for future generations, not all about us.

His legacy?

All he has done is replicate the LBJ Administration - even unto his personal life.

Gads - I even gave money to the Swift boat guys to help his Texan into office.

Overall, I suspect history will recognize we haven't had another 9-11, but his Amnesty policies destroyed this nation....

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Nucular is an ad hoc spelling of an incorrect pronunciation of the word nuclear, representing the IPA: /ˈnjuːkjələr/ (NEW-cue-lurr) pronunciation of that word instead of the correct /ˈnjuːkliːɚ/ (NEWK-lee-urr). This pronunciation is disapproved, although some dictionaries recognize it because of its increasing usage.[1]
