Comparing Dubya to Dr. King #1Jan 22nd, 2008 - 04:50:02

Dr. King: 'I had a dream'

Bush: 'I had the D.T's'

----------------

Dr. King: 'A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.'

---

Bush: 'My answer is bring 'em on.' —President George W. Bush, challenging militants attacking U.S. forces in Iraq, July 2, 2003

(More verbatim from our leerless feeder)

'There is no doubt in my mind when history was written, the final page will say: Victory was achieved by the United States of America for the good of the world.' --George W. Bush, addressing U.S. troops at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait, Jan. 12, 2008

'I can press when there needs to be pressed; I can hold hands when there needs to be -- hold hands.' --George W. Bush, on how he can contribute to the Middle East peace process, Washington, D.C., Jan. 4, 2008

'The decisions we make in Washington have a direct impact on the people in our country, obviously.' --George W. Bush, New Albany, Ind., Nov. 13, 2007

'If you've got somebody in harm's way, you want the president being -- making advice, not -- be given advice by the military, and not making decisions based upon the latest Gallup poll or focus group.' --George W. Bush, New Albany, Ind., Nov. 13, 2007

(and who can forget ...)

'I don't particularly like it when people put words in my mouth, either, by the way, unless I say it.' --George W. Bush, Crawford, Texas, Nov. 10, 2007

SP4: King was WrongJan 22nd, 2008 - 18:51:36

Dr. King: 'A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.'

Hardly the case if you're attacked, isn't it?

We spent FAR more in WWII on the military, year after year, than on social uplift and it was particularly spiritually uplifting, freeing millions of jews and other ethnic minorities in the world, from the scum of humanity.

Mr. King was wrong. He was a political figure, not a prophet.
