As you can possibly see, I have an injury myself -- not here at the hospital, but in combat with a Cedar. I eventually won. The Cedar gave me a little scratch. As a matter of fact, the Colonel asked if I needed first aid when she first saw me. I was able to avoid any major surgical operations here, but thanks for your compassion, Colonel.

-Statement offered by President Bush in the presence of servicemen and women wounded in combat in Iraq and Afghanistan Brooke Army Medical Center, San Antonio, Texas, Jan. 1, 2006

Who better to tell jokes about going to war with a cedar and receiving first aid for scrathes, than people who got their limbs blown off in Iraq...a war you started.

i think you libs are trying too hard now, hes just trying to have some humor. its not like he is comparing the two, its a joke. i dont really see that as insensitive

now john kerry, with his 3 purple hearts for teeny weeny slivers of shrapnel that a bandaid can fix, is another story.

Yes clearly its better to be a brush-clearing draft dodger then to get 3 purple hearts of which one was awarded for a small piece of shrapnel, and save a life of swift-boat mate. Clearly, Kerry must have been a pussy.


CAN THE PRESIDENT PLEASE HIRE SOMEONE TO CLEAR HIS BRUSH FOR HIM. Doesnt the country need him?

some people find chores like clearing brush relaxing. so relaxing, in fact, they like to take large quantities of time to do them

[Edited on January 3, 2006 at 11:55 AM. Reason : but really i dont see it as that offensive, though im sure a few soldiers might be upset]

People said the same thing about Reagan when he would clear brush on his California Ranch. It's ridiculous that you guys will actually scrutinize that. Give the guy a break. He clears brush to get away and take a break.

perhaps he was making an analogy

of course, i can't decide if we're the rancher or the brush

p.s.

i'd be highly insulted if i'd given this guy an arm in combat and he is telling me not to worry about the scratch on his face, or is comparing it to a maiming

fucking plank-eye son of a bitch

And I am one of them. You don't get the same satisfaction from hiring someone to do your work for you.

This isn't outrageous; just an example of how big of a dipshit Bush can be.

yeah if you were serious

but if you're joking about it, it lightens their mood

i hardly think that the soldiers would have been pissed about it. they probably all laughed.

yeah, i'm gonna go with no

diff'rent stroke for diff'rent folks i guess

its kinda like if you make a joke about fucking someones mom
and then they're like "my mom died in an abusive rape and robbery"

doesn't matter if you were joking
you still feel like shit

but that doesnt apply at all because Bush DID hurt his arm clearing brush...it wouldnt be the same as your analogy unless the person you are talking about actually DID fuck dude's mom

he's all "iraqis couldn't take me out, but some underbrush was too much for the pres! LOL."

you didn't see FDR do anything.

beyond that, the press wasn't up his ass the way they are everyone today.

because you didn't see it, doesn't mean it did or didn't ever happen.

Jesus christ shut up.

If my legs were blown off and I was left a stump, a pro comedian wouldn't be very funny.

Let alone the man who sent me there.l
