Here's why. The original quote referred to Islamo-fascist terrorists, not the relatively harmless self-appointed Goanet spokespersons. The correct quote was, "You are either with us, or you are with the terrorists." It sure does cut through the s--- as to who supports and enables the terrorists, doesn't it? See below for an explanation of what "s---" means. > Gabe writes: > > His Mentor Bush recently was caught on the mic - > same rhetoric.

What President Bush did was to hail Tony Blair as he was passing by during a break in the G-8 conference, with a friendly, "Yo, Blair!" > Sophisticated old-school Brits would probably raise their eyebrows and politely "Tut, tut!" at this friendly and familiar American-style greeting. > As they talked, Bush said, "See the irony is that what they need to do is get Syria to get Hezbollah to stop doing this s--- and it's over," Bush told Blair as he chewed on a buttered roll. > The word "s---" refers to the smelly product of the digestive process, Gabe. Other than holding your nose in disapproval over this earthy language, which BTW, is considered pretty tame on your side of the pond, it looks like you disapprove of Bush's notion that the current conflict would be over if Syria would stop their terrorist subsidiary, Hezbollah, from "...doing this s---". > And people wonder why this conflict has been going on for 58 years? > _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
