Mother Fucker still can't pronounce "Nuclear"

[corey]

6 years and no one has bothered to coach him on that.

 :-/

[ali]

i'm guessing you're talking about your fabulous el presidente?

surely someone could sit him down & EXPLAIN? using small words of course ;D

[Specialist]

i'm sure if i had to speak for an hour straight i'd probably screw up a few times too.

[aMillionDreams]

he mispronounces it on purpose because it endears him to some of the idiots who vote for him.  He's a lot smarter than people think, it's the American public that is dumb.

[peanut butter puddin surprise]

THIS guy is the leader of the free world?  Wow.  Just....wow.

[EC]

Was he on tv last night or something?  Was it one of those state of the unions?

So they tell me.  I wouldn't know, he'd have to have Jesus Christ himself standing beside him for me to listen.

heh.  I'd probably watch that, too.  ;)

Oh man.  What're we gonna do about all the crazy shit in the world, hey?  I go back and forth from caring too much, to saying fuck it to everything and staying tight in a little bubble.

[peanut butter puddin surprise]

I go back and forth between the same two things.  Revolution, or mind numbing to keep myself from giving a shit.

I don't have any answers, except for the fact I'm old enough to run for Prez.  Somehow, I don't see myself as the Prez though... ;)

[EC]

Don't do the Conaway.

Well, you'd have to get a publicist for starters.  ;)

Now I'm trying to think of a dance move called The Conaway.  I think maybe it's just a massive, continuing head bang.  The kind that makes you feel like you have the flu the next day because your neck hurts so much.  :)

PBS had a special on George Clinton's revolution and the evolution of Parliament and Funkadelic.

Much more interesting and relevant.

Actually, I'd start with an Exploratory Committee to find out if I have enough support to warrant a campaign, then I'd make a Fundraising Committee to start raising money.

Then I'd hire you as my publicist.   ;)

Some quotes from W's State of the Union:

"Our third goal is to promote energy independence for our country, while dramatically improving the environment."

"Tonight I'm proposing $1.2 billion in research funding so that America can lead the world in developing clean, hydrogen-powered automobiles."

"With a new national commitment, our scientists and engineers will overcome obstacles to taking these cars from laboratory to showroom, so that the first car driven by a child born today could be powered by hydrogen, and pollution-free."

"Join me in this important innovation to make our air significantly cleaner, and our country much less dependent on foreign sources of energy".

Those are some very interesting statements.
If this actually would happen (I fear it won't), history might even judge positively on this president.

What's your opinion? Is he serious about his concern for the environment or is he just an opportunist ? As you might know, he didn't want to sign the kyoto treaty...

What's your opinion?

Yeah, but he NEVER pronounces this word correctly. :)
I have a shirt that says, "OK, I give up. It's Nucular".

It's one of my favorites.

Easy-his speech writers dreamt up that load of malarkey to appeal to the middle of the roaders who aren't happy with the war, but support him nonetheless.  If he weren't from an oil rich family, I might be inclined to believe that, but just like everyone else, he'll follow the money.  

It's no accident Toyota is the biggest auto maker in our country right now, and they are making huge inroads with their hybrid vehicles.  Eventually, hydrogen fuelled cars will probably be the standard, but not before another generation or two of gas powered vehicles as they still make money for the carmakers.

Of course our country is addicted to oil.  If we had made the slightest adjustments back in the 70's, as in following the CAFE standards for car manufacturing, we wouldn't be in this boat.

He could care less about the environment.  It gets in the way of cattle ranchers and oil drilling, so it has to go, right?

I'll believe any of this when I see proof of it.  Until then, it's just another politician spouting off bullshit.

I'm sorry to say I follow you completely :-/
My only hope is that the uncontrollable fires and  winds you recently had overthere might convince him of the urgency of the situation.

Here in Belgium, we are asked to postpone outside efforts because the air is to polluted. Imagine, childred are being asked not to play outside and I can't go for a run if I don't want to pollute myself.
This situation will remain the same for at least 2 more days

It might be too late within 2 generations...

why did cindy sheehan get arrested before the speech began just for wearing an anti-war shirt?  

what do the media and those in charge have to fear if this woman isnt sparking a movement and getting people to pay attention?  if she really is a crackpot, where the fuck is the harm?  

[corey]

Capitol Police Sgt. Kimberly Schneider said police warned her that such displays were not allowed in the House chamber, but Sheehan did not respond.

That's a crock of shit. So, would it be OK for her stand outside and wear it? What's the fucking difference?

You guys really think the Bush people are going to let Cindy Sheehan sit at the address wearing a shirt that protests the war?

This shouldn't be a suprise at all.

its not a surprise, the question is why.  so because its not a surprise, is this type of behaviour ok and acceptable in this country? just because things are what we expect doesnt make them right.

is this upcoming war in iran ok because i knew it was going to happen last october?  fuck no.  fuck that.
