The Democrats Are the Problem

[Cynthia]

A tear rolled down Mr Bush's cheek as he honoured 22-year-old Marine Jason Dunham, killed two years ago when he fell on a hand grenade in Iraq to save his comrades.

Well, I do honor the veteran.

So I leave it at that for tonight.

Be back soon.

Bush was an idiot when it comes to the case of Tucker..Xavier stated just so..

XO is now an expert?

Well, gee, thanks.

What I meant was that Juniorbush was an idiot when he made fun of Karla Tucker's plea for a commutation of her sentence. He imitated her voice as a squeaky whine. This is the sort of crap that only villains in bad movies do. It was unworthy, even if Tucker was a monster when she carried out a brutal murder. Juniorbush represented the State of Texas, and the State has no business mocking anyone before it kills them.

I think any sane person can agree with this.

I guess you don't recall the World War posters.

In the year following her execution, a journalist questioned Governor Bush about how the Board of Pardons and Parole had arrived at the determination on her clemency plea. The journalist, conservative commentator Tucker Carlson, alleged that Bush, alluding to an televised interview which Karla Faye Tucker had given to talk show host Larry King, smirked and spoke mockingly about her on account of her clemency plea:[7]

        In the weeks before the execution, Bush says, a number of protesters came to Austin to demand clemency for Karla Faye Tucker. "Did you meet with any of them?" I ask. Bush whips around and stares at me. "No, I didn't meet with any of them", he snaps, as though I've just asked the dumbest, most offensive question ever posed. "I didn't meet with Larry King either when he came down for it. I watched his interview with Tucker, though. He asked her real difficult questions like, 'What would you say to Governor Bush?'" "What was her answer?" I wonder. "'Please,'" Bush whimpers, his lips pursed in mock desperation, "'don't kill me.'" I must look shocked ? ridiculing the pleas of a condemned prisoner who has since been executed seems odd and cruel ? because he immediately stops smirking.

Journalist Carlson followed up on Bush's alleged remark by reviewing a videotape of the interview on Larry King's show. Carlson found that Tucker had in fact not uttered the entreaty, "Please don't kill me" nor words to that effect.[8] Bush denied Carlson's allegations. No other witness corroborated Carlson's story.

Maybe the alleged smirk and mocking never happened.

If it happened, it was totally inappropriate.
If this sort of crap was on WWII posters, so was that.

Key word is IF

The story seems to be passed around like it was gospel. And there are some amongst us who question the veracity of the Gospel.

Believing anything Juniorbush says is difficult. He is similar in this to Joe Isuzu.

Isn't the real question, whether we should believe Tucker Carlson?

[Xavier_Onassis]

I really don't care about this enough to discuss it any longer.

Juniorbush was lying, Carson was lying, or perhaps both were lying. No tapes were made in which the truth can be determined, so it is just a matter of who you trust.

Nor can anyone bring Karla Faye back from the dead.

So this has reached a dead end.
