“Despite $100B Iraq War, Bush Still Mispronouncing (2003-04-14) -- Despite spending $100 billion to knock down a statue of Saddam Hussein, U.S. President George Bush is still mispronouncing words and looks like a monkey, according to an unnamed leader in the Democrat party. "We're convinced that Bush is intentionally mispronouncing words to distract attention from his disastrous handling of the economy," the source said. "Just the other day he said 'misfeasance' instead of 'malfeasance'. In the past, we Democrats let him get away with stuff like that, but now that the war is nearly over, it's time to play hardball." The Democrat insider said his remarks were the first salvo in a campaign to "elevate the debate in Washington" to focus on the President's appearance and verbal skills. "Wait until you see the photos where Bush looks like a chimp, or Moe from the Three Stooges," he added. ScrappleFace” 1:37:07 PM 4/14/03 “Splendidiferous!

You could get sued by a chimp.” 4:11:31 PM 4/14/03 “This is a poem constructed by Dubya's mastery of the language. MAKE THE PIE HIGHER by George W. Bush I think we all agree, the past is over. This is still a dangerous world. It's a world of madmen and uncertainty and potential mental losses. Rarely is the question asked Is our children learning? Will the highways of the Internet become more few? How many hands have I shaked? They misunderestimate me. I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity. I know that the human being and the fish can coexist. Families is where our nation finds hope, where our wings take dream. Put food on your family! Knock down the tollbooth! Vulcanize society! Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher!” 4:17:29 PM 4/14/03 “gawd.” 5:38:40 PM 4/14/03 “I do not like Bush, but Misfeasance is a word. it means when one does something on accident or out of stupidity to hurt someone. what Bush really really said was "misfeance". he's an idiot!” 7:02:30 PM 4/14/03 “Is a Democrat defined as ; Half of a snake with a head at each end which spends all its time in a circular coil fighting with it's other(Repulican) head?” 7:15:58 PM 4/14/03 “Increase in War Funding Sought Bush to Request $70 Billion More By Jonathan Weisman and Thomas E. Ricks The Bush administration intends to seek about $70 billion in emergency funding for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan early next year, pushing total war costs close to $225 billion since the invasion of Iraq early last year, Pentagon and congressional officials said yesterday. [...] The new numbers underscore that the war is going to be far more costly and intense, and last longer, than the administration first suggested. [...] Bush has said for months that he would make an additional request for the war next year, but the new estimates are the first glimpse of its magnitude. A $70 billion request would be considerably larger than lawmakers had anticipated earlier this year. After the president unexpectedly submitted an $87 billion request for the Iraq and Afghanistan efforts last year, many Republicans angrily expressed sticker shock and implored the administration not to surprise them again. [...] The latest request comes on top of three earlier emergency spending bills approved by Congress in support of the war. In August, Congress approved $25 billion for the war as a bridge to the larger request the president promised for early 2005. Last October, lawmakers passed an $87.5 billion emergency spending measure that included $65 billion for combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. An additional $18.6 billion of that money went to Iraqi reconstruction. Congress approved the first war spending measure in April 2003, a $78.5 billion measure that included $62.4 billion for combat and $7.5 billion for foreign assistance.
