"US President George W. Bush said Wednesday that he had warned world leaders they must prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons "if you're interested in avoiding World War III."

There's a link to the video on the website. Couldn't get it to show up in post.

Scary way to start the morning.

Does he realize that the stuff he says to our media makes it around the world? That the dumb stuff he says off the cuff to our press actually matters to leaders of other countries?

Nah...probably not.

Now why didn't I bring a change of pants to work today?

    "Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that direct dialogue was a better way of easing the diplomatic crisis over Iran's nuclear ambitions than the threat of military force or sanctions."

    "“Not only should we reject the use of force, but also the mention of force as a possibility,” Mr. Putin said.

    Russia has blocked a third set of sanctions against Iran at the United Nations that were intended to persuade Tehran to stop enrichment activities, which Western nations fear could lead to the development of nuclear weapons. Mr. Putin has emphasized the need for further dialogue and working through the International Atomic Energy Agency to ensure that Iran’s nuclear programs were for peaceful purposes."

    I'm not exhaulting Putin by any means. On the contrary, I think Putin being Putin makes it more frightening that he sounds more rational sometimes than Bush.

    But thats the point isn't it? We Americans need to realize what we are letting our elected official do to our standing with the rest of the world. I for one am sick of this schmuck speaking on behalf of me and my family here at home.

    "...if you're interested in avoiding World War III."

    That is not a warning, it is a veiled threat. Furthermore, he is repeating the lie about Ahmadinejad having said that he wants to destroy Israel. Bush isn’t looking very good, either, both his face and his voice betray disguised desperation. He knows he’s a loser, so he wants to start a major war in the hope of salvaging his legacy from the bottom of the pit.

    As for Putin, he has earned both my respect and my wariness. After all, he certainly is no wasp, but he is a gent and a cagey bee... ;)

    Nope, not yet. You'll know we are in WWIV when we are fighting with sticks and stones...

    We are the most hypocritical nuclear bomb using people on the block, err.. planet. What Bush is threatening here is probably nothing less than nuclear war. Maybe that's it, Bush has figured out his solution to global warming, NUCLEAR WINTER.

    I'm wishing that there was another world power that could sanction us or do something to put us in check, as we are out of control. Someday maybe we the people will be able to control our leaders, or at least elect them democraticaly.

    Oh yeah, If they try to steal the election a third time, are we going to sit idely by again? I say we take to the streets and get arrested as many times as it takes. But maybe we should shut down Guantanimo first, what's its capacity anyway?

    Don't tase me bro!

    if those ppl who are "behind curtains" create, push, or allow another evitable catastrophe like 9-11 between now and the elections, with the intention to make everyone afraid and affect their voting.... frustration and anger is all i can think of.... i just cannot understand how he was re elected, its been a long time and i still cannot believe it.

    He's such a great guy. Trying to start another world war for the next president. What could he possibly be thinking? It's almost as if he wants us to get attacked. It's like going to a gay pride parade and wearing, "I hate gays" shirt, it's just something you don't do. He's provoking other countries to come at us, and when they do it will just be a huge mess. Who voted for this moron?

    At a press briefing this morning that touched on issues like the White House's extrajudicial wiretapping program and torture policies, the president was asked a question about Vladimir Putin's plan to hold on to power when his term as Russian president runs out.

    Reporter: Mr. President, following up on Vladimir Putin for a moment, he said recently that next year, when he has to step down according to the constitution, as the president, he may become prime minister; in effect keeping power and dashing any hopes for a genuine democratic transition there ...

    Bush: I've been planning that myself.

    ***

    I've learnt to take Bush's quips seriously - "If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator." and "Lucky me, I hit the trifecta"....

    Ask Nancy Pelosi to step down as Speaker and let someone with enough courage to impeach both Bush and Cheney take over as Speaker. I believe they "Let" 9/11 happen, and I believe some other terrible thing will happen if we don't demand they be impeached. So what if it takes all the Senate and Congresses time. It will also take all Bush and Cheney's time.

    When I heard Bush’s comments about WWIII, I just wanted to strangle the man for saying something stupid AGAIN. It’s as though the brain does not engage before his tough starts to flap. First the flapping, then the brain. Or, does it even engage to begin with.

    Hear me now believe me later Bush is right! WWIII is prophetic and whether you belive it or not will happen. It's not "IF" it's "WHEN". You want some facts? Check out "Epicenter" by Joel Rosenberg. This author connects recent headlines with biblical prophecy. Coincidence? Read and study for yourself. Sure...you can bash Bush on many subjects but...he's right about this one. It's no secret that Russian leaders for the first time in history are meeting and making alliances with Iran. It's no secret that Iran's president vowed to wipe out Isreal. It's no secret that the goings on in the middle east and around the world are movong toward a war we have never fathomed but have been forewarned of.Don't be naive. Check into it. The information is out there.

    Iran's President was misquoted he did not say that about Isreal. We are the ones that elected a Christian Freak that believes he will go to Heaven if he can bring on the Rapture. Everyone is just getting prepared for the Idiot in Chief to nuke Iran. Those silly people are living above "our" oil Just like Iraq is. The reason we won't leave Iraq is because they won't sign over 75% of their oil to Shell, Exxon, Mobil and BP for the next thirty years. God save us from the "Christians." The mess we are in is because we are stupid.
