Crazy Bush Compares Democrats To Nazi Appeasers

digg Share this on Facebook Huffpost - stumble reddit del.ico.us RSS

Congressman Kucinich was absolutely correct on both counts: the UFO thing and the president's mental stability thing. Here's why. The UFO which Kucinich claims to have seen was, in fact, President Bush successfully landing his crazy jet on the flight deck of the USS Batshit. Your president at the Heritage Foundation Thursday:

"History teaches that underestimating the words of evil, ambitious men is a terrible mistake. [...]

In the 1920s, the world ignored the words of Hitler, as he explained his intention to build an Aryan super-state in Germany, take revenge on Europe, and eradicate the Jews -- and the world paid a terrible price. His Nazi regime killed millions in the gas chambers, and set the world aflame in war, before it was finally defeated at a terrible cost in lives and treasure. [...]

Bin Laden and his terrorist allies have made their intentions as clear as Lenin and Hitler before them. And the question is: Will we listen?"

These were just a few choice remarks pulled from a mostly horrible speech by the president in which he scolded the Democrats for being terrorist appeasers, simply because they're not giving him everything he wants. I don't even know where to begin to evaluate the insanity, but I had to review the video in order to make sure he didn't end the speech by mounting Bancini's shoulders and challenging Charlie Cheswick to a pick-up game of black jack in the tub room.

Let's start with bin Laden and work up to the Nazi part.

President Bush has clearly forgotten that it wasn't the Democrats who failed to capture Osama bin Laden. The sole responsibility for the failure to capture bin Laden, in fact, rests directly on the slumped little-man shoulders of George W. Bush, the 43rd President of the United States, due to his well-documented incompetence, hubris and myopia. He also went so far as to inexplicably shut down the CIA's bin Laden unit. This has nothing to do with the Democrats. It was The Decider who decided to allow bin Laden to escape and to go on to bigger and better things, like an Evildoer Disney in northern Pakistan.

This demands restating.

The only reason bin Laden is any sort of threat here and now -- a full six years after September 11-- is strictly and in no uncertain terms the fault of George W. Bush.

The Democrats had nothing to do with this historically massive blunder. It wasn't the Democrats who looked you and me in the eye and declared bin Laden "wanted dead or alive," only to, a few months later, publicly confess to not spending much time on him.

Yet the president is shamelessly projecting his unforgivable failures onto Congress during this, his third public hissy in less than a week.

Not all of us, as George Carlin sublimely described to Keith Olbermann, have been bought off with toys and gadgets. We haven't forgotten that Congress, including the Democrats, made "the terrible mistake" of giving the president everything he asked for, over and above the bounds of reason and constitutionality. Everything. Through the first half of this decade, they allowed him to get away with the no-bid contracts, the Patriot Act, the illegal preemptive invasion of Iraq, the outsourcing of the military, the wiretapping and all of the flagrantly unconstitutional shit which has defined his presidency.

And he still failed to get the bad guy.

With a record of acquiescence as precedent, the Democrats appear to be turning a corner and are attempting to ignore his pedomorphic attempts at intimidation. Slowly but surely. So how does the president react? He spazzes out and blames the Democrats for the on-going bin Laden threat.

Additionally, in finally resisting the president, the Democrats are also accused of being appeasers -- similar to men who conducted business with Nazi Germany. Men including, say, I don't know, Prescott Bush for example.

This isn't a new tactic for this regime. I think Rumsfeld was the first to offer up this Nazi appeaser argument. Crazy ass Rumsfeld! The president should know better than to go around repeating all the backwards shit he overhears Rumsfeld saying.

Because now our Chief Executive has shrunken so small and beneath contempt as to blame the Democratic Party for potentially allowing an all new Holocaust -- in the same way the appeasers allowed Hitler to run amok and murder 6 million Jews. Now the (straw man Democratic) appeasers want to let the evildoers run free, and... what then, hmm? Hitler is to Holocaust, as bin Laden is to... what? Hint: another Holocaust-like genocide and the Democrats will surely be to blame.

In the president's withered, oxygen-deprived skull, anyone who disagrees with this analogy is, as he said today, "being disingenuous or naive." Not the neocons who repeat such nonsense. The Democrats.

That's right. The Democrats.

By not giving the president everything he wants, these unhinged so-accused appeasers, in addition to allowing bin Laden to remain a threat, could now be shoving the world down a familiar slippery slope toward horrors not unlike "gas chambers" and racial "eradication," and only George W. Bush's illegal wiretaps and torturing and failed wars can stop this from happening. You know, because his ideas have always been so awesome. Naturally, then, the Democrats had better let him have Mukasey and waterboarding. They'd better let him bomb Iran. They'd better let him continue to fund mercenary shadow armies. Because if they don't... Boom! New Holocaust!

This could very well be the most outrageous thing the president has ever said, and that includes "major combat operations have ended" and his recent World War III remark. Bloggers and talk radio hosts can get away with uttering such categorically demented horseshit, but this is the President of the United States for God's sake. This speech was miles below the high ground dignity we expect from the holder of our most cherished public office.

As such, and in this order, there ought to be a motion to censure the president brought to the floor of both chambers, and, following the censure vote, the president should publicly apologize to Congress and the American people for these statements. Seriously. He should then apologize to the survivors of the Holocaust for reducing their horrifying struggle to the level of a hackish political stunt.

Contact your senators and congressman right now and get this thing moving. Congress seems to be demanding apologies from everyone who says something offensive these days, so, by God, the president should apologize, too.

Meanwhile, per the 25th Amendment, the president needs to resign from office due to being mentally incapacitated. I know that won't happen, but it's worth suggesting anyway.

Unfortunately, many of the Dems seem to be Bush Appeasers. Feel free to make any of your own analogies...

Serious Dems realize that many of these terrible tools merely bring us into the computer and make us competitive with the enemy. Serious Dems know we need this stuff but realize that their crazy "core" oppose it(all of whom romantically suppose the FBI is spying on them personally -- what a snooze shift that would be. So to placate their loonies they have to pretend to be against the law enforcement tools that they know the US needs.

Reference: Forty-four Democrats joined 207 Republicans in voting to renew key provisions of the act, with some modifications, for four years. Eighteen Republicans, 155 Democrats and one independent voted against it.

Democrats voting yes included party Whip Steny H. Hoyer (Md.) and Rep. Jane Harman (Calif.), the top Democrat on the House intelligence committee. Harman said the bill is needed "to track communications by e-mail and Internet, including the use of Internet sites in libraries, and to prevent and disrupt plots against us."

Compare Michael Scheurer's account with Richard Clark's (Against all Enemies) and one finds that the facts are not so pat as Cesca cartoons them.

Bin Laden's being a threat has nothing to do with Bin Laden himself? Bin Laden has been extremely influential in his culture where he is a hero. His actions have inspired others. To lay everything upon Bush in the highly exaggerated way ignores what Bin Laden accomplished long before Bush entered the White House.

I would refer interested persons to Michael Scheurer's books -- recommended reading by Bin Laden himself. (For folks who get all their news here, Scheurer was the chief of the Bin Laden unit of the CIA.)

I wonder if this means that Mr. Cesca wishes that the attack on Afghanistan had occurred earlier than it did.

I clicked on the link to the Guardian story about the disbanding of the CIA's Bin Laden unit. '"The reorganisation just reflects the understanding that the Islamic jihadist movement continues to diversify," an intelligence official said.' Is Cesca disputing this?? If so, upon what basis? I seriously doubt that the reorganization has anything to do with President Bush. That kind of realignment of assets would be a CIA decision.

Excellent post as always but I'm surprised you didn't come out and say the obvious.

If anyone is the dangerous aggressor here, it's President Bush. He has turned America into a premptive attacker. He is responsible for more deaths, both Iraqi and American, than Osama Bin Laden and he is determined to use force to spread his peculiar, corporate/religious version of what he calls freedom and democracy.

It's his words that we ignore at our peril.

Great post and comments here.

It feels like we live in parallel universes in this country. We have the true believers, a dwindling but impactful group of people living in total denial and still believing this president. And we have those who feel pain, shame and disdain and want this to end.

And we have a president who never had to grow up, who never took responsibility for any mistakes he made, and never met a fact he couldn't twist.

The finger pointing and name calling are stock of this man. Why he gets airtime and people still buy the BS is beyond me.

I used to read here everyday but it's so depressing most of the time to see the sheer volume of issues that have come from the administration and are so negative to our best interests at home and with the rest of the world.

It is comforting to hear voices of reason and I thank you Bob for leading the charge on this one.

It is good to remember that just because one has power it is not a measure of worth. Bush may wreak havoc with fascistic policies but he WILL be gone soon enough. What has been done can be undone.

We will rise above and hopefully history will find us a better people, more resolved and united than the divider had ever had time to destroy.

As for comparisons to Hitler, I've only heard that raised by the Bush administration and the misbegotten followers so where this became a leftist thing is beyond me. But again, those who follow the pinhead in chief start out being deluded and it only gets worse for them...

Save yourselves, Bushies,...read more and stop believing contrived facts and redacted news. Your bubble is about to burst all over you!

Please! Would someone arrange a neuropsych exam for the president before blows up the world?!?!

Read the new, revised version of "Bush on the
Couch." It's so obvious that Bush is suffering from intellectual, emotional and mental deficits.

So we are not going to appease the evildoers, Bush and Cheney and neocons any more, that is why they should asap be arrested and sent to Hague and face trial for war crimes. btw, I read that Rumsfeld is running away trying not to be taken by the French police, they want him for torture, which I also think he is guilty of approving in Abu Graib and Gitmo. He is right, if we don't do this we may have WW3 here very soon

The application of a childish psychology, if that doesn't work I'll squeam and squeam and squeam! The warmonger has declared war on his own house, wise men say a house divided against itself cannot stand!

The president might have noted that not all Americans averted their eyes while Hitler and his supporters made evil plans. His grandfather, Prescott Bush, was assisting Hitler and German industrialists design and implement those plans.

It's long standing US foreign policy, unwavering
during Repo or Demo administrations, to try very
hard to prevent, discourage, inhibit the further
development of nuclear weapons.

Even the current occupant has to continue that
policy, even if he doesn't quite understand it.

The situation bears an passing similarity to the
waning days of another inept president, Carter
by name, who was flummoxed by Iran. Out of that
came Ron Reagan, leading the cavalry to the
rescue. Could be, this time around, it will
be another opportunity for yet another Repo
to save US one more time, from the same Iranians.

Because we're not exactly ready to turn over the
cavalry to HRC, are we?

"President Bush has clearly forgotten that it wasn't the Democrats who failed to capture Osama bin Laden."

Somehow Bob Cesca thinks that the U.S. wasn't looking for OBL prior to 9/11/01. Typical.
