Anyone else embarassed by our President (US)?

[snow]

After watching all the events unfolding today I was quite struck by the cowardice of our commander-in-chief. As millions of New Yorkers and people around the DC area feared for there lives, where was our President? As Mayor Giuliani, Governor Pitacki, and members of the House and Senate rushed to the scenes of the attacks and were visible to comfort the nation, the President was running with his tail between his legs to Omaha.

As thousands of his countrymen died, he covered his own @ss. And please don't say the NSA made him go. Any President worth crap would have gone back to DC to be there for his country. What good is a President if he can't be there for us when we need him?

And the speech tonight by the President was equally embarassing. America won't back down? Last time I checked, you ran to Nebraska. He kept talking about symbols. What kind of a symbol is it to the attackers when they cause the supposed most powerful man in the world to run cowering to some bunker in the middle of nowhere? A symbol that the President and America are weak and scared.

I'm just disgusted with the cowardliness of our so-called President. The country needed him and he was worried only about himself. His behavior is all the more repulsive in light of the actions of other leaders around the New York and DC areas.

Snow, I kinda agree with you. I have never been a big fan on Guiliani, but I was proud to see him walk the streets on downtown NYC. I would vote for him now.

 

[Johnnie]

were you there??? did you jump in your car and head for DC or NY??

 

[CrazyHelloDeli]

shut the fvck up asshole. theres a special place in hell for maggots like you.

 

[AaronP]

even if it was repulsive which I don't think it was, now is not the time to be critisizing him.

 

[Johnnie]

snow you must piss in your bed too!!

 

[Strych9]

You can't really be that ignorant can you?

 

[Johnnie]

I see he is from CA..that explains it all

 

[snow]

<< were you there??? did you jump in your car and head for DC or NY?? >>



Last time I checked I'm not the President so my actions have no consequence in this thread. Me going up on TV isn't going to comfort the nation genius.



<< shut the fvck up asshole. theres a special place in hell for maggots like you >>



Anyone ever tell you that you have an understated eloquence in your writing?



<< snow you must piss in your bed too!! >>



What?



<< You can't really be that ignorant can you? >>



Please my enlightened fellow poster, explain the amazing revelations you have uncovered into my ignorance.

<< What good is a President if he can't be there for us when we need him? >>


Exactly, which is why he went to Omaha. How was the NSA suppose to know that the terrorists weren't pointing their guns (or planes) at him? They didn't know that he wasn't a target.
If he would have been killed by one of these attacks think of how much more crazy things would be right now...especially if it could have been avoided.

 

[PistachioByAzul]

The President does not act on his own. His status makes him a prime target that could potentially be a fatal blow to this country. Even if he wanted to, the SS would not have let him divert from their defensive plan of moving him around to various places.

Not like you'd have more balls than he did in the situation anyway.

 

[weezergirl]

actually during these acts of terrorism i'd doubt they'd be trying to kill some new york mayor...a more likely target would be the president of the united states. can u imagine what that would symbolize to the rest of america if they managed to kill him? u say what good is a president who isn't here in our time of need but what good is a president if he's dead? if anybody his life was more in danger than anybody else's. i don't really see why he needed to be on the scene anyways. and i wonder if you noticed that he is back in washington now, not exactly "in hiding" anymore.

 

[cx32m4]

he's not my president but listen..
Mayor Giuliani, Governor Pitacki, there are planty of mayors and govenors.
there is only one president of US.
Something like this never , ever happnened before in your history.
you can not risk the life of president.

 

[Dolemite69]

You little bitch... You keep on walking around disrespecting our President in a time like this and you will most definately be beat down like the sorry fvck you are! What if he were to go "immediately to DC" as you suggest and those bastards sent another plane into the capitol building?? Yea snow, great idea...... Damn i wish i could get my hands on stupid maggots like yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[snow]

That's exactly the point. He wasn't there when we needed him. After the fact, I could care less. What, he lets everyone die and then rolls out from his bunker to let us know he's all right and he feels bad. That's pathetic.

Second, as to his safety, they were jumbo jets. they weren't flying at supersonic speeds. ANy jet apporaching DC would have been shot down by the fighter patrols. He wasn't in danger, he was just confused and scared and looking after himself.

Out President is supposed to put the people of America first and he did just the opposite.

Whew, and I didn't believe it when I was told that most of the US population is eloquent and stupid.

 

[Octunar99]

We should back him fully (Bush that is). There are certain procedures in place that need to be followed to protect our President. What if he did rush back to the White House to conduct business there instead of the secure bunker they had him in and that downed plane actually was headed for the white house and hit it? We would be with out a leader and look very weak to the world. We must stand in unity politicaly, there is will be plenty of time for us to get back to our petty Rep/Dem/Lib bickering when this is all over.

Just my thoughts,

The Presidents job is to stay alive and in command and control. Most of the time they do stupid macho stuff and get shot or something then there is chaos in the command structure. Of course Dick Cheney would have taken over and he would know exactly what to do.

The President should stay out of the middle of it and just provide whatever support that he can.

 

[Passions]

Pres Bush has to evacute, it's far more important for him to stay alive. Can you imagine if he got capped while walkin around in ny? I don't think Dick can handle this country esp when he is chronically in the hospital it seems.

Then what the fsck hit the Pentagon?

 

[jehh]

<< Snow, I kinda agree with you. I have never been a big fan on Guiliani, but I was proud to see him walk the streets on downtown NYC. I would vote for him now. >>



I'm a Republican, a strong supporter of Bush, and I totally agree, he was a wimp today...

This was his chance to show backbone, and he blew it...

I'm rather disapointed...

I would like to have seen him in Washington... Once fighters were up, the real danger was gone, they could have shot down any airliners that got near Bush...

After that silly... Once that happened, the fighters were scrambled...

Obviously you can't read or comprehend something called sequence of events. I'll explain it to you. Bush was in FLA during the attacks. There was no warning. Afterwards fighters were scrambled. By the time he would have gotten to DC fighters were blanketing the DC air space.

another brilliant comment by snow:
<< ANy jet apporaching DC would have been shot down by the fighter patrols. >>


OH........ so is that why they shot down that JUMBO JET that crashed into the pentagon???

 

[Doctorweir]

A dead president would be of less use than alive...the US running around like a headless chicken really makes no sense...
Also I agree with the symbol issue...those fanatics would think they killed the US if they killed their head...

You're ignorance and inability to read continue to astound me although with a name Dolemite69 could I expect any less? You, my friend, are the lowest common denominator.
