Running, Hiding and Video Taping!

(Bush "truly not that concerned" about him.)

Share article:

Story here. Video here (sorry, CBS-haters, the Fox version wouldn’t download).

Don’t let this worry you though, since our “President”, as you may recall, was “truly not that concerned about him”. So why should you be?

(Video tape of that statement available here, despite the White House’s version of same having been scrubbed from their website).

UPDATE: Whaddaya know? Since our report on the scrubbing of that audio/video, and since The Washington Post’s coverage of it, the White House has restored the Audio and Video from that March 2002 press conference that they’d previously removed!

    We all thought, maybe, maybe he was dead. I had chills reading his words.

    Brad, you were right. Kerry in a landslide. I’m calling %53-55 minimum for Kerry. The American people, regardless of whatever spinning happens this weekend, have had their wakeup call.

    Bush has to go.

    Bryan, I like your enthusiasm for our candidate to win, but all this spinning will make it much, much closer. Kerry, by a hair, in the popular vote…. not president-elect until the courts in two states decide.

    Brad, that gave me a chuckle. 🙂 But that’s such an oversimplification… not only is there fear, but also:
    anger, hate, confusion,delusion, and of course, paranoia.

    Vance: fearing another four years of missed opportunities and mismanagement (regardless of the election outcome).

    Vance,m

    i hear you. Here is what i think is necessary after the new Administration is sworn in. First we need to look at diplomacy. Forcing our "allies" to make serious structural political and economic changes in their societies. Notice that the American government was compared to the despots of the region. It is the unwavering support of these last that root the political movementof terrorism is these communities. It is, as Tariq Ali has called it, an anti-imperialism of fools" but it is effective nonetheless. The maintainance of this vile ideology is directly related to foreign policy support for tyrants. Democratization undermines terrorism as long as this last does not come from the barrel of a gun.
