The Word is 'Dissemble' , Mr. President.

"It seemed like to me they based some of their decisions on the word of and the allegations by people who were held in detention, people who hate America, people that had been trained in some instances to disassemble that means not tell the truth."
George W. Bush, on an Amnesty International's report on prisoner abuse at Guantanamo Bay, Washington, D.C., May 31, 2005

"[P]eople who hate America, people that had been trained . . . to not tell the truth."
Sounds like he's describing himself, here.

And, 'disassemble?'
It'd be funny if this wasn't a man who graduated from both Yale and Harvard and is, ostensibly, President of our country.
Trust G. W. not to know a synonym for 'lie.'

Bush has lost his mind and just did another veto. Just what this country need for torture.

January will not come soon enough for America.

hi, AAP--
I fear for America. even for myself -- tho I'm such small potatoes I'm not likely to be noticed by the steamroller we've let loose on the land.

hey Larry--
I can't believe he lost his mind. that would suggest he had one in the first place.

I have the feeling that even after Bush is out of office (praise the Lord!), we'll be hearing plenty more "Bushisms". That guys isn't smart enough to go into hiding...er, I mean retirement and STFU.

he'd be a sight more entertaining if he wasn't the most powerful man in the world.
