Bush On Saddam: ‘That Motherf*cker Tried To Take Out My Dad’

[Yellowdogtexan]

The war on Iraq was based on fixed intelligence and fixed facts. The real reason that bush let Bin Ladin escape and rebuild Al Qaeda is the fact that bush is a hater who was determined to get the person who tried to kill his dad. http://thinkprogress.org/2007/07/14/bush-saddam-dad/President Bush attempted to convince the nation that Saddam Hussein had WMD as justification for invading Iraq in 2003. In Oct. 2002, for example, he stated, “If we know Saddam Hussein has dangerous weapons today — and we do — does it make any sense for the world to wait to confront him as he grows even stronger and develops even more dangerous weapons?”

But today on the progressive radio program The Cappy McGarr Show, host Cappy McGarr reveals through a conversation with former Sen. Majority Leader Tom Daschle that in private, Bush’s real motivation was a personal vendetta:Of all the reasons used to justify this awful war, the one that stunned me the most…and will shock you…was the one I heard from a close friend of mine former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle. Senator Daschle was Majority Leader at the time.

The Senate and The House Leadership were meeting with President Bush for a weekly breakfast back then, and as our country was leading up to the Iraq war. … Bush got to talking about why we needed this war, and here’s what he said to Senator Daschle “We need to get Saddam Hussein…that Mother _______ tried to take out my Dad.” Bush’s feelings for Saddam have long been intensely personal. In 2002, he said to CNN, “Oh, yes, I hate Saddam Hussein. I don’t hate a lot of people. I don’t hate easily.” Six days later at a fundraiser in Texas, Bush said, “There’s no doubt he [Saddam] can’t stand us. After all, this is the guy that tried to kill my dad at one time.” Bush was referring to an “alleged plot by Iraqi intelligence to assassinate Bush’s father.”

It’s troubling that Bush believed he could use U.S. troops as personal hitmen to avenge a grudge. Again, it is clear that bush fixed the facts and the intelligence to sell this stupid war. bush lied us into a war to get the man who tried to kill his poppy

He's a maniac. I have visions of him being dragged kicking and screaming from the White House, in a straight jacket and into a white van with "Belview Sanitarium" written on the side. :yep

It would be funny if it were not so tragic.

Here is a lawyer that believes all these *secret* conversations for Bush's motives, BUT will tell you know that Clinton did not have Ron Brown silences as well as MANY people who could have caused the Dynamic Dewoh problems!

Is this YOUR reality world there Doggie??

Ringo, it is you who is embarrassing yourself with stupid claims that President Clinton killed anyone. The only people who believe such claims are idiots and nut cases who do not live in the real world. Every time you make such a claim, you confirm that your graspe of reality is non-existent.

BTW, it has been established that bush lied to the american people about the war in iraq by something called facts (you should try using facts). Bush fixed the facts and the intelligence to sell a stupid and needless war in Iraq so as to get the man who tried to kill his da-da. These quotes are not new and bush made at least one of these quotes on the record to a reporter from US News and World Report. Again facts and dealing in reality are wonderful ideas. You should try using facts and living in this world

Who said he did Dog? BUT you have heard of Riadi, Wang, the Dixie Mafia, Tyson, and the sleeze element of Billy's World, not to mention Rogers drug pals, who would kill for little or nothing? That's personal for Billy, BUT then there is Waco, that involved a lot of INNOCENT people for the Fascist CLUNTON-RENO Govt and their Puppet Al Bore!

BUT then there is Waco, that involved a lot of INNOCENT people for the Fascist CLUNTON-RENO Govt and their Puppet Al Bore!:lmao Again, you may want to look at some facts and try living in the real world. :lmao There was a trial of the surviving branch davidians and the evidence showed that the fires that killed so many were set from within. Again, facts are a wonderful concept. You may want to try using facts in your arguments some day.:lmao

So sad that so many have died and even more maimed for life because of one incompetent son who could never quite live up to his parents expectations.
And he still hasn't succeeded in that.
:crap Ringo? :sad

This is not really "new" news Yellowdog. I, as well as many, many others have been saying this for a long time now. It's been obivious that Bush was driven to get Saddam because of the threats on his dad's life. But it is good for the conservatives to hear again and again. :shrug

So sad that so many have died and even more maimed for life because of one incompetent son who could never quite live up to his parents expectations.And he still hasn't succeeded in that.

:clap Very well put Matt.

It's also sad that too many more are still to die for his stupid mistake. :(
