He thought it was just a fart. It turned out to be the motherload.

The motherload? It looks more like he just shat his brain out. All two cells of it.

Re; sick of idiots--------This article is so stupid, Bush shitting his pants is all there is to say. May not be classy, but on the other hand, I'm not a Bush follower. Bush followers are clueless and have no scruples.

...put my foot in your ass.

Yeah, boys, knock yourselves out. You can't get a war defunding resolution, passed a 230 billion dollar farm bill without any revenue to back it up, and another 50 billion on cake and ice cream earmarks.

Congress is like a relative who brings something to yuo as a present, you don't want to begin with, then borrows it and expects you to pay for it, when he breaks it.

God, compared to these wankers, I'd take a carload of Bush's.

I guess the question that comes to my mind is, WHY? Everyone that is familiar with that part of history knows it was what we call today a genocide. To what possible purpose would passing a bill 92 years later declaring it to be what we already know it was, be of any use to the US or to Turkey? And who in our American society is still alive and remembers this event from 1915 so vividly that they still have issues with it?
I have to side with the Bush administration on this. This is a stupid move on the part of the Democrats. The only possible profit I could see the Democrats getting out of this is they can put the US and Bush Administration at odds with one more country in the world, as if we needed any more help in that area.

Both Republicans and Democrats signed onto this ...

We've seen your criticism of the Dems (rightly so) ... But what do you have to say about the Republicans who favored this?

Or, does your criticism only go in one direction?

For the sake of historical precision ;the armenian genocide was carried out during the ottoman empire .Befor Turkey became a republic .I still wonder why any turkish government not only acknowledged the event .No sensible soul would ever blame contemporary Turks for the genocide .There is no such thing as inherited guilt .So why denying the event ?

I like the threats by the Turks - very classy. That's nice - wipe out over a million people and then threaten anyone who attempts to accurately portray this historical horror. Seems like acknowledging historical genocide is only appropriate when it suits your own selfish interests. How pathetic.

This is just a ploy by traitors in our government, democrat and republican, to drive a wedge between US and our allies. I see no other reason for our government to waste time labeling historical events. Come on, these guys are a bunch of morons who know nothing about the issues that they vote on anyway.
