John Kerry is being Google-bombed by conservative activists (“waffles” -> John Kerry). Since this web site has a high ranking for waffles and things related to waffles, I’m helping out our conservative friends so their efforts don’t become a miserable failure.

Make your own Bush/Cheney poster at the official Bush/Cheney web site.

Update: It was fun while it lasted, but you can only choose from a menu of states and a menu of coalition groups – there’s no longer a “fill in the blank” option.

Here’s a couple of examples of the fun that can be had:

• Washington Interns Gone Bad
  
  
• Dump Bush in 2004!
  
  
• The Politburo Diktat
  
  

GEORGE Bush pulled out of a speech to the European Parliament when MEPs wouldn’t guarantee a standing ovation.

Senior White House officials said the President would only go to Strasbourg to talk about Iraq if he had a stage-managed welcome.

A source close to negotiations said last night: “President Bush agreed to a speech but insisted he get a standing ovation like at the State of the Union address.

“His people also insisted there were no protests, or heckling.

“I believe it would be a crucial speech for Mr Bush to make in light of the opposition here to war. But unless he only gets adulation and praise, then it will never happen.”

Mr Bush’s every appearance in the US is stage-managed, with audiences full of supporters.

It was hoped he would speak after he welcomed Warsaw pact nations to Nato in Prague last November. But his refusal to speak to EU leaders face-to-face is seen as a key factor in the split between the US-UK coalition and Europe.

The source added: “Relations between the EU and the US are worsening fast – this won’t help.”

Bush is not only a Miserable Failure, he’s also a pussy (to use language a typical Bush supporter can understand).

Here’s a page to keep track of the the status of the Miserable Failure Project.

As of 2003-11-01, Miserable Failure has yet to appear in the top 100.

THE PRESIDENT: Nora, I think you ought to look at my speech. I said, Iraq is a dangerous place and we’ve still got hard work to do, there’s still more to be done. And we had just come off a very successful military operation. I was there to thank the troops.

The “Mission Accomplished” sign, of course, was put up by the members of the USS Abraham Lincoln, saying that their mission was accomplished. I know it was attributed some how to some ingenious advance man from my staff — they weren’t that ingenious, by the way.

From Media Whores Online:

MSNBC’s Buchanan and Press…

BILL PRESS: Bush said…the crew of the ship put that sign up. Now we find out the White House has just confirmed, we just got this handed to us…Senior Navy officials now confirm the sign was in fact produced by the White House.

-Bush to troops in Qatar, 6/05/03

I suppose it’s the troops’ fault that Bush said “that mission has been accomplished.”

His doctors must be messing with is meds…

Apparently Iraq is a dangerous place.
New Bush word: Suiciders

Update: here’s the transcript.

Here’s an “interesting” exchange:

Q Thank you, Mr. President. You recently put Condoleezza Rice, your National Security Advisor, in charge of the management of the administration’s Iraq policy. What has effectively changed since she’s been in charge? And the second question, can you promise a year from now that you will have reduced the number of troops in Iraq?

THE PRESIDENT: The second question is a trick question, so I won’t answer it.

Let’s not forget his attempt to blame the whole “Mission Accomplished” fiasco on the crew of the USS Lincoln.

Q Mr. President, if I may take you back to May 1st when you stood on the USS Lincoln under a huge banner that said, “Mission Accomplished.” At that time you declared major combat operations were over, but since that time there have been over 1,000 wounded, many of them amputees who are recovering at Walter Reed, 217 killed in action since that date. Will you acknowledge now that you were premature in making those remarks?

THE PRESIDENT: Nora, I think you ought to look at my speech. I said, Iraq is a dangerous place and we’ve still got hard work to do, there’s still more to be done. And we had just come off a very successful military operation. I was there to thank the troops.

The “Mission Accomplished” sign, of course, was put up by the members of the USS Abraham Lincoln, saying that their mission was accomplished. I know it was attributed some how to some ingenious advance man from my staff — they weren’t that ingenious, by the way.
