Cant wait til the adminstration tells us the recording was made in Iran

I may not have voted for Bush, but I still wont be looking for this murderer in the name of religion (Zawahiri) on any ballot except nt for judgement between life or death..i will choose the latter..death to this hypocrite Zawahiri. He should look into his soul first before criticizing my favorite deamon!

I find it amazing that Zawahiri echoes almost to the word the same things that the Democrat party and liberal journalists say about the President. Who can doubt whose side the Democrat party and those journalists are on?

I haven't heard democrats label Bush an alcoholic or gambler, or accuse him of having an addictive personality. Liar? Some democrats and liberals may have made the accusation, but on that count Bush stands convicted by history. Zawahiri missed one, though. Dubya is just plain dumb.

The truth is the truth regardless of the source.

Bush may be an idiot and a moron, but only americans have earned the right to say so. As for being an alcoholic, I would think he needs to start drinking. His being sober is ruining our country not to mention killing thousands of our soldiers via idiotic moves like invading Iraq.

If as he says Americans are " experts in alcohol and addiction to it ... other faults, lying and gambling," what does he have to be proud of? There is an old saying, Do not judge others or you too will be judged the same way! As far as re-electing Bush again, I voted for him only because he needs to fix the problem that he started or the troubles and blame would have been on another persons head. I still don't understand why they just don't impeach him? It couldn't get any worse.

What the heck? Are these guys ten years old or something? Perhaps we should release a tape calling them "big doody-heads."

If this is how far they've fallen, and what they're reduced to doing--calling the President names--then they're little more than a shadow of past fears still manifest.

Still, it does raise the question: why haven't we managed to catch/kill these morons yet?

Matthew,

Truly, do you believe that journalists are on the side of terrorism? Or is it that you can not stand to be doubted (a la bush and cheyney) and have your decisions questioned? It is a sad day in America when Journalists and Democrats are painted as terrorists for questioning the status quo in government.

I seriously don't agree with this maniac, but Zawahiri is really not saying anything that we don't know already. Bush is a liar, and he was a drunk and a drug addict. He had a rich and powerfull daddy who kept him out of trouble, no matter how hard he tried to get into it. He had companies that he ran into the ground, the same direction he's running this county. He has close ties with the Bin Laden family which is well documented. He managed to steal two elections. He even started a war with a country rich with oil under the guise of liberating it's people from a tyrant that the U.S. supported for 30 years. But, people still believe in this fool. Then again, these are the same who still think that Clinton's sexual offense is far more serious. I'm convinced the U.S. is populated by the overgrown cast of Hee Haw. That's it, I'm moving out!

I agree with Zawahiri. The American public voted for this "disaster" twice, we permitted him to usurp America and orchestrate the greatest foreign relations disasters in history. "We should be ashamed."

Even a broken clock is write twice a day.

Making numerous personal attacks on a political opponent, each with a grain of truth (Bush used to be a real boozer, for example).... Zawahiri sounds like a poster-boy for modern Republicans!

Bush is an alcoholic and a liar. His whole family history is full of fraud and corruption.

How much more insults do we have to take? Can we please stand together and strike down these terrorists already!

Sad old bitter man, consumed by hate and fear. Zawahiri I mean. Not all of us voted for Bush twice either, but Zawahiri has a ways to go before he, either, appeals to voters.

Why must the republican "right"? always align the democrats with terrorists. When will they grow up and realize they are the ones being manipulated by the terrorists...and the easiest to incite.

Bush is a lying criminal and that's simply the truth. A terrorist can see the truth as well as anyone else. You don't have to be a Democrat or a Liberal to see that.

It does take a Republican though, to ignore that Bush is a lying criminal.

I guess if we didn't want any of our enemies pointing out that we have an alcoholic liar for a president then we shouldn't have elected an alcoholic liar from the Republic party as president.

An audio tape with subtitles? How does that work exactly?

Also, I think this is a positive sign as these kinds of personal attacks are really a product of desperation that their message is no longer reaching the audience. The only way these large-scale terror groups will ever be defeated is if they lose the support, financial and moral, of the region. That is not to say the majority support them of course, but the smaller that minority that does support them gets, the safer the world is.

Matthew: Did it ever dawn on you that a) this could be bogus, and b) being right about Bush is not about "sides" but about legitimate concerns about this reckless President?

"find it amazing that Zawahiri echoes almost to the word the same things that the Democrat party and liberal journalists say about the President. Who can doubt whose side the Democrat party and those journalists are on?"

Maybe the side he is on is the side that is sick of seeing hundreds of thousands of civilians die in the name of a war against an ideology with no end point? Perhaps he laments that all of the reasons that we entered Iraq were lies and manufactured evidence?

Perhaps you might feel differently if you feared death squads, random bombings of weddings and schools, and an attacking enemy that is willing to lie to it's people to garner any degree of support for a war designed to capture war and profits for the machine that creates it. Explain to me please, how killing in the name of Peace has ever lead to anythinb but more killing?

Nice try, Matthew. Democrats are on the side of America, the same as Republicans. Divide & conquer is a valid tactic and it is sad to see you not only fall for it but to compound it by implying that Democrats are somehow on the "side" of Zawahiri. Any thinking person without some political agenda can see that Bush is awful. Just because the bad guys agree with that assessment does not indict those that have said it all along. Zawahiri and his clan believe that religion should be taught in schools also. Does that mean that the Republicans are on his side?

Good point Matthew... It seems that even Al-Qaeda has become a parrot for the liberal left. Not that Dubyah hasn't lied his ass off since he got into office and broken dozens of promises, and gambled (and lost) with the fortunes of this fine nation, but does this turban of hate really think that his calling Bush an alcoholic is going to somehow make us all wake up and impeach him and put Mr. Taliban in the White House? What a useless broadcast on their part. I guess they had nothing better to say.

Yep, it's nearly universaly recognized in all but the most delusional of Bush-worshippers.

WORST 'PRESIDENT' EVER!

Matthew-

Thank you for being the GOP tool. Your generalizations are so off base and your party will be suffering for it in 2008.

Why do we give any credence to this murdering terrorist? He is just an extension of Sadam Huessen, who by the way is DEAD. I know we can't take the threats of these people lightly, but their constant critizems of our leaders is getting old. President Bush is not the leader I once thught he might be, but still, he is for the time being our President and deserves some measure of respect from Americans. Perhaps the team of Clinton/Obama would be what we need to get us back on track as a nation, in the eyes of our own citizens and the citizens of the world!

What did you expect from that bunch of maroons? But to blame this on Democrats is lame. This is the United States of America, not some fascist third world hellhole. We are allowed to speak out against our government if we feel like it with no repercussions. I bet the Republicans who blasted Clinton for 8 years would all agree.

Hey Matthew,
Zawahiri and the liberals both maintin the sky is blue too.
Just cause they both notice that Bush is a LIAR, doesn't mean anything except they both state the obvious.
And hey, its the DEMOCRATIC PARTY. Unless you want me to start callin' you guys the Repub party.

Bush an alcoholic liar?!

Is that supposed to be news!

Blah..blah...blah...what a idiot..democratic party...Matt Stidham...get a life dude...all politicians are evil htpocrites and opportunist..i serve the military each day..to let go go oblious to whats goin on in the world..what GOP suit paid you to write this blog? I have an idea, why dont you challenge Jesus and Muhammad to a street break dance fight..if you win you can rule the world, and put all the elephants you want into positions of power...freak!

The man happens to be 100% correct in his assessment of Bush and America.

Matthew if you believe what you just said-that in a "free country" we are not free to have different views, then you are no better than a terrorist telling Americans how to think.

We have more than one party because we aren't Nazi's or Communists. If you can't handle more than one view perhaps you should move to Iran where they only allow one view.

Believe it or not, most of us military families think Bush has misused our loved ones lives for a bunch of lies and we don't appreciate it.

If you so support this war and the next, please sign up-because most soldiers do not. They feel duped and know this war is a waste of lives and money.

Finely someone speaks out, what the entire world knows. But Bush is not only a drunken liar, the worst is, that he is one of the most evil war criminals, this planet has seen. And corporate media is doing nothing but amplifying his poison mouth. The media, especially CNN, FOX etc. are complicit in all his war crimes.

Michael:
Your logic (or lack thereof) is what's amazing. Being anti-Bush in no way equates to being pro-Al Queda, pro-Zawahiri. WMDs? Lies. Iraq Terrorist Center? Lies. Honorable miliray service? Lies. "Mission accomplished? Lie. Now we're ramping up almost the same let of lies to justify invading Iran.
If I were carrying as much failure and decete baggage as Bush, I'd be at risk of being an alcoholic too!
As for civilians being accused of "chose Bush twice", that's not true either. The 2nd election was a sham thanks to a Republican orchestrated coup in Florida.

"Wise" words from one madman to another. Bush has destroyed America from the inside- far worse than the terrorists could do. And,
"Matthew" seems to have already forgotten the November elections and ignores the polls recently taken of the military in Iraq, fighting the war. They don't like it either.

The comment by Matthew Stidham is uncalled for. Just because Zawahiri said that Bush is an alcoholic liar, doesn't mean that liberal journalists and Democrats are on their side. That's over the line. Bush has proven he's a liar, but that doesn't mean those of us in the liberal camp side with them, we want to win this and get our troops out of there. For the record, Bush is an alcoholic, he's as much admitted that. Once an alcoholic, always an alcholic, just a recovering one.

jbinthe757 states, "I find it amazing that Zawahiri echoes almost to the word the same things that the Democrat party and liberal journalists say about the President. Who can doubt whose side the Democrat party and those journalists are on?"

Propaganda is always composed of the half lie. Bush is an ex-drunk, most likely untreated. He is not a gambler because the outcome of the war in Iraq was highly predictible.

The problem with jbinthe757's statement is that he is guilty of the same psychological problem that many ex drunks are guilty of, namely splitting. Where ideas are simply placed in extreme context. If you are against Bush, You are for terrorists or as George has said either you are for us or you are against us. Reality demonstrates that many positions can be held for any issue. One can be agains Bush, against the invasion of Iraq, and against terrorism. One can be for the war in Iraq and feel that Bush and his cronies have conducted it with total incompetence. One can believe that the war in Iraq was a mistake and our resources would havwe been better spent securing our Nation and fighting terror cells. There are numerous othe possible permatations.

Thats DEMOCRATIC mister publican.

Who's side are the Democrats on?
The truth. Just because someone doesn't agree with you does NOT mean they want terrorists to win.
The bush administration seems to be on the side of the terrorists:
invasion/occupation of Iraq aided the recruiting of more terrorist, BushCo pulled out of Saudi Arabia - one of Bin Ladens demands, BushCo continues to divide this country.

If we don't want our enemies pointing out that our president is an alcoholic liar then we should stop electing alcoholic liars. And if the Republic party is sensitive about Democrats pointing out that the president is an alcoholic liar then why did they nominate one in the past two elections?

hey matthew. Correlation does not imply causation... go read up on logical fallacies before making silly comments.

How entertaining. More comedic film antics from the "terrorist group" named after potty humor.

The truth is the truth.

Dear Mr. Stidham,
you can defend Bush?
Zawahiri is just another critic of the Pres., a list that includes most Americans and many Republicans. It's pretty clear Bush is a genuine loser, as will be America before he's through ruining this beloved country.

That is tame; nothing compared to the profane things that I call Bush. Things I do not call him are leader, president, intelligent, sane, sir, compassionate, democratic, and on and on.

Those of us who know about alcoholism and addictive behavior are aware that Bush shows all the signs of untreated alcoholism. As for his lying, well, how much time do you have?

the logical fallacy in the previous post should be obvious. Because Zawahiri makes statements that are similar to some made by some Democrats, therefore Democrats support terrorism? This kind of non sequiter contributes nothing to positive discourse.

They say even a broken clock is right twice a day. al Zawahiri maybe a cowardly hate-mongering assasin, but he sure has got Bush right.

History will harshly judge both men. That is if there is a history; 'cause we won't know, we'll be dead.

Republicans and Democrats both want to win whatever engagement the US is in. Suggesting Democrats equal to terrorists shows the constant propaganda of conservatives to justify their position with equations which are just not rational. Using non rational arguments to justify goals is a very common in the current Republican administration. Currently we are engaged in a non-winnable situation of trying to mediate a civil war. The longer we stay in Iraq, the more damage it is doing to our country. Our enemies are getting an education in how to defeat our armored vehicles, they are getting supply and replenishment lines established, and they are winning the ideology battle in that area of the world. The funny thing is we will leave Iraq not by winning the un-winnable…but when the country officially decides the status quo is more dangerous than leaving Iraq…which translates to when the country decides the path dictated by the Republicans is more dangerous than the potential risks of terrorism...

Even a horrible excuse for a human being has shown good insight into Bushes mind.
The sad part is that he is right about Bush.. Scary....

Oh, good one, Matthew!!! By the way, was Iraq behind 9/11?

Isn't he an admitted alcoholic?

Hasn't he lied?

To Matthew

Zawahiri may be a murderous thug, but when it comes to Bush he only says the obvious. Matthew you are the real blame America first type. The truth remains so no matter who says it. You live in an alternate reality, like Bush lives in, where war is peace and hate is love. It is sad that a nut like Zawahiri has a firmer grasp on reality than Bush and you.

I find myself amazed to be in agreement with Zawahiri. At least it is a plausible explantation to why we are in a war which has violated the classic definition of "Crimes Against the Peace". More then half a million dead, half a trillion dollars spent, a country that had not raised a finger against us utterly destroyed an in chaos.....Our armed services brought to the edge of breaking. For what? Please tell me? For what? It is certainly reasonable to extend the theory that the primary actor in this debacle, the self proclaimed 'decider' has some serious psychological problems that might reasonably be explained through patterns of addictive behavior.

I guess, in the end, if we ever get there... Mr. Bush can use the defense of his addictive personality when confronted with war crimes in the Hague.

The truth is the truth.
Even if its coming from notorious unfavorable persons.

Who can doubt whose "side" the Democratic Party (the proper grammar -- maybe you don't have a very good handle on proper grammar?) and "liberal" jounalists are on?

Well, I would note that only Bush, Cheney, and God W. Bush worshippers divide Americans into "sides."

Good heavens, Zawahiri must be one of us leftie moonbats! Seriously, I wonder why he has chosen this pasrticular moment to get so personal. Is he trying to provoke the Traitor-in-Chief into being more intransigent than ever? By downing the Dems, is he trying to keep us from starting to disengage from Iraq? I would be interested in opinions on the gains to be made with this kind of gambit.

And Matthew blames the media and the majority opposition party (representing 70% of Americans) for Republican failures? What an ignorant fascist apologist. He's clearly on the side of racist sexist homophobic pro-torture anti-American corrupt lying morons. Hope you get your new American civil war, Matthew, since that's clearly what you're agitating for.

Bush wasn't elected twice. He stole the election twice. And the actions of the terrorists like Ayman al Zawahiri helped him.

At this point it would be cheaper in men and money to get rid of bush. This I affraid is just some more propaganda that pulls us closer to war with Iran. The problem with these statements is that they are true.

Joe

I disagree with Mathew Stidham who believes Zawahiri aligns himself with democrats. The Republican president's deadly, costly, and open-ended adventure in Iraq has helped AlQuaida recruit and train far more enemies of the United States than anything a Democrat might have done. Which is not to say that I consider Democrats to have clean hands either.

I must defend Bush, here. Sure, he is an alcoholic and a liar, but I don't know of any evidence that he has a gambling problem.

Hey Stidham,
Your logic is the perfect example of a feeble mind.
Thanks

Zawahiri knows what we have found out - that our president is a traitor and a liar. Al Qaeda may be our enemy, but G.W. Bush is the greatest threat to all of us. God help the United States of America.

oh oh! al Qaeda's Zawahiri called Bush a name. Guess that means that Bush will have to kill some more innocent Iraqi women and children.
A curse on both of these warmongers.

But, but, but.. He IS an alcoholic liar, and those are two of his better points.

Tell us something the majority of Americans don't already know.

As bad as Al Qaeda is, they are correct when calling Bush a drunk and a liar. He is all of those things and more. Just because the people who pay attention to facts call Bush what he is, doesn't make them on the side of Al Qaeda. Anyone who thinks as such has departed from reality.

Shucks, Matthew, where do you think Zawahiri gets his info? The Democratic Party I know does not support Al Qaeda. Attacking the "liberal" media which is owned mostly by conservatives sounds too much of a cliche to have much credibility. Expand your horizons and read "Armed Madhouse" by Greg Palast. Also, read some of Bob Woodward's books about the Bush administration.

Yes, we're at war, but are we concentrating on the right enemy?

Mr. Stidham,

Your boys had 6 years to get rid of this scum. I'd say they failed.

It's suckers like you that keep them in power.

Dems will defeat Al Qaeda. Why do you hate the 60% of Americans who think so?

Gee, I think he's an alcoholic liar too, so does chavez. Doesn't everyone feel the same?

Posted by: Matthew Stidham | Feb 13, 2007 6:29:47 AM

And I find it amazing that you are amazed....where have you been for the past 5-6 years?

Zawahiri is not echoing anything that any member of the DemocratIC party is saying. Please indicate who has called Bush an alcoholic liar.

Now, having said that, there is ample evidence that the Bush administration is characterized by tyranny (illegal domestic wiretaps), criminality (violating Geneva Conventions), and failure (spreading representative democracy in Iraq).

Like I've been telling everyone, the Dems are no better than the Repubs when it comes to governing this country. It's time to go with INDEPENDENT office seekers. It's just too bad Russ Feingold doesn't go Independent. He would smash Clinton and Obama.

Remember when Bush said "Bring it on." And when he declared victory before the real war even began. And when he and Cheney lied and lied and lied about the urgent need to send our troops to war against the mighty evil Saddam. And remember how the Republics in congress backed him every step of the way.

THis is what you get when Republics are given total power. You get massive failures, massive debt, and shame, humiliation, world-wide scorn. Bush is hated more than Satan by his own people.

Matt, why don't you sign up for a tour in Iraq if you support his policy so much?

Who would have thought that I'd agree with al qaeda about something? Yet there it is: Alcoholic Liar. Who could dispute it?

I find Matthew Stidham's comments to be amazingly revealing of his own idiocy. Which article did you just read Matthew? Did you just selectively decide not to process the direct quote of Zawahiri criticizing the democratic party as "one side of the same coin of tyranny, criminality, and failure." ? Or did you just decide to conveniently ignore facts that contradict your world view? Makes you sound a lot like your hero.

BTW, the rest of the world labels actions such as that as "stupidity", just so you know.

Tell us something we don't know and FYI stop blaming everything on the Democrats. This Republican administration has done nothing but lie from day one. I guess the Democrats are responsible for the CIA indictment as well.

I find it amazing that there are still people like Stidham who apparently think their Rovian talking points are credible to anyone with an IQ above 97. Zawahri is and always will be an enemy to the United States period. To state any party affiliation is on their side is pathetic.

That's right Matthew,
Journalists and all Democrats are terrorist sympathizers. Only Republicans and conservatives have fought in this war, in fact only republicans have any military experience, and they are being led by example with the likes of W. and Cheney, and Rummy. Democrats, with the help of the liberal bleeding-heart journalists were the ones who outed a NOC operative. Democrats were the ones who manipulated intelligence and lied to the public in the state of the union address, they were the ones responsible for the WMD claims, for saying this war would be a slam dunk, that we didn't want to be left with a smoking mushroom cloud.
The Dems and journalists are the reason we have outsourcing and the reason we have welfare rampant, and the levee's, can't forget who's fault the Levee's were. No not the Democrats, silly, just one, it was Bill Clinton's fault. In fact 9-11 was Clinton's fault, he should have declared a state of emergency when the Bush administration ignored the Clinton's administrations warnings of an attack using commercial planes, the same attach that "no one saw coming".
Pro-democratic funding is the root of where all your news comes from too, that's why it is liberal right? Feeling a bit nostolgic here, so I'll leave you with something I dind't live through, as I am too young, but seem to remember better then those who did, "follow the money". Too bad we don't have a Deepthroat for our generation.

Hate al Qaeda but damn he nailed it.

"an alcoholic, liar and gambler with an addictive personality."

Dah, genius Matthews!

A google search engine, and voila, same rhetoric.

Can any perosn deny that the orgnization that has benefitted the MOST from Bush's insane war in the Middle East is al-Qaeda with hundreds of thousands of new recruits?!?

To paraphrase a statement from Congressman John Murtha said last night, once the U.S. pulls out, al-Qaeda will go home. No one to fight anymore!

Maththew - it is kinda strange? That is why I am certian that Zawahiri is a CIA-Bush created Boogieman and you Republics eat it up.

There

Our enemies are supposed to be so clever that we STILL can't track down Osama bin-Laden 4-1/2 years after 9/11. Yet Matthew would have us believe that they are stupid enough to "echo the same things that the Democrat [sic] party and liberal journalists say about the President" because they support Democrats.

What should be obvious, is that if Zawahiri wanted to influence American public opinion, he would say things that were exactly the OPPOSITE of what he actually wanted Americans to do, knowing that he is detested. Therefore, it seems to me that Zawahiri really DOES want Bush to remain in office, as that gives him the best chance of killing more Americans. To say nothing of giving him the least chance of being apprehended.

The thing is that the guy is RIGHT. W IS a seriously flawed human being. I think that has been shown every time he opens his mouth. And for ANYONE to say that this proves the dems are on the terrorist's side is really pathetic. Did it EVER occur to you that those saying that W is unbalanced are CORRECT? Does wanting to actually have a decent person as president make me a terrorist sympathizer? Does not wanting to have a moron in office who starts wars for the hell of it make me a terrorist? I don't think so.

I think it makes me a rational, sane human being who isn't fooled by haughty words that sound good but get people killed. And it makes me a person who doesn't have such a seriously twisted idea of national power that we have to go around pushing people out of their own countries so we can steal their natural resources. It also doesn't make me stupid enough to think that 9/11 changed our very knowledge of human behavior. No matter what, when you invade a country, they will try and get rid of you. PERIOD. And those who have been hurt and destroyed by you will teach others in their country to hate you. It's basic human reality, folks, and I'd rather be run by people who understand that this is reality, and it didn't change because we had a moron in office who ignored warning after warning so he could start international crap with the rest of the world. Supporting the terrorists, indeed. Who is busy turning the whole middle east against us? Those who insist on staying the course, or those who are trying to END it?
