Lying Comes Naturally to bush & the Republicans
Whenever Republican politicians find themselves in trouble, their automatic knee-jerk reaction is to blame Democrats. If there is nothing to blame Democrats for, they merely make something up - they lie. This is exactly what the Republican National Committee (RNC) chairman, following the lead of his boss George W. Bush, has done and is doing. He is placing the blame of the mean and punitive House immigration bill on the Democrats, when he knows that it is an outrageous lie.
"To be anti- George Bush is to be pro-American,"
I think he's dangerous, and he has to be stopped."

Articles of Impeachment
of
President George W. Bush
and
Vice President Richard B. Cheney,
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice,
Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld, and
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors. - - ARTICLE II, SECTION 4 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
President George W. Bush, Vice President Richard B. Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld, and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales have committed violations and subversions of the Constitution of the United States of America in an attempt to carry out with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes and deprivations of the civil rights of the people of the United States and other nations, by assuming powers of an imperial executive unaccountable to law and usurping powers of the Congress, the Judiciary and those reserved to the people of the United States, by the following acts:
1) Seizing power to wage wars of aggression in defiance of the U.S. Constitution, the U.N. Charter and the rule of law; carrying out a massive assault on and occupation of Iraq, a country that was not threatening the United States, resulting in the death and maiming of over one hundred thousand Iraqis, and thousands of U.S. G.I.s.
2) Lying to the people of the U.S., to Congress, and to the U.N., providing false and deceptive rationales for war.
3) Authorizing, ordering and condoning direct attacks on civilians, civilian facilities and locations where civilian casualties were unavoidable.
4) Instituting a secret and illegal wiretapping and spying operation against the people of the United States through the National Security Agency.
5) Threatening the independence and sovereignty of Iraq by belligerently changing its government by force and assaulting Iraq in a war of aggression.
6) Authorizing, ordering and condoning assassinations, summary executions, kidnappings, secret and other illegal detentions of individuals, torture and physical and psychological coercion of prisoners to obtain false statements concerning acts and intentions of governments and individuals and violating within the United States, and by authorizing U.S. forces and agents elsewhere, the rights of individuals under the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
7) Making, ordering and condoning false statements and propaganda about the conduct of foreign governments and individuals and acts by U.S. government personnel; manipulating the media and foreign governments with false information; concealing information vital to public discussion and informed judgment concerning acts, intentions and possession, or efforts to obtain weapons of mass destruction in order to falsely create a climate of fear and destroy opposition to U.S. wars of aggression and first strike attacks.
8) Violations and subversions of the Charter of the United Nations and international law, both a part of the "Supreme Law of the land" under Article VI, paragraph 2, of the Constitution, in an attempt to commit with impunity crimes against peace and humanity and war crimes in wars and threats of aggression against Afghanistan, Iraq and others and usurping powers of the United Nations and the peoples of its nations by bribery, coercion and other corrupt acts and by rejecting treaties, committing treaty violations, and frustrating compliance with treaties in order to destroy any means by which international law and institutions can prevent, affect, or adjudicate the exercise of U.S. military and economic power against the international community.
9) Acting to strip United States citizens of their constitutional and human rights, ordering indefinite detention of citizens, without access to counsel, without charge, and without opportunity to appear before a civil judicial officer to challenge the detention, based solely on the discretionary designation by the Executive of a citizen as an "enemy combatant."
10) Ordering indefinite detention of non-citizens in the United States and elsewhere, and without charge, at the discretionary designation of the Attorney General or the Secretary of Defense.
11) Ordering and authorizing the Attorney General to override judicial orders of release of detainees under INS jurisdiction, even where the judicial officer after full hearing determines a detainee is wrongfully held by the government.
12) Authorizing secret military tribunals and summary execution of persons who are not citizens who are designated solely at the discretion of the Executive who acts as indicting official, prosecutor and as the only avenue of appellate relief.
13) Refusing to provide public disclosure of the identities and locations of persons who have been arrested, detained and imprisoned by the U.S. government in the United States, including in response to Congressional inquiry.
14) Use of secret arrests of persons within the United States and elsewhere and denial of the right to public trials.
15) Authorizing the monitoring of confidential attorney-client privileged communications by the government, even in the absence of a court order and even where an incarcerated person has not been charged with a crime.
16) Ordering and authorizing the seizure of assets of persons in the United States, prior to hearing or trial, for lawful or innocent association with any entity that at the discretionary designation of the Executive has been deemed "terrorist."
17) Engaging in criminal neglect in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, depriving thousands of people in Louisiana, Mississippi and other Gulf States of urgently needed support, causing mass suffering and unnecessary loss of life.
18) Institutionalization of racial and religious profiling and authorization of domestic spying by federal law enforcement on persons based on their engagement in noncriminal religious and political activity.
19) Refusal to provide information and records necessary and appropriate for the constitutional right of legislative oversight of executive functions.
20) Rejecting treaties protective of peace and human rights and abrogation of the obligations of the United States under, and withdrawal from, international treaties and obligations without consent of the legislative branch, and including termination of the ABM treaty between the United States and Russia, and rescission of the authorizing signature from the Treaty of Rome which served as the basis for the International Criminal Court.
Well, it looks like you already answered you question, but I was gonna say 953 times.
wow, whered you get all this info?
wow looks like long list
he was lied to at least that many times he wilingly lied others,
too many times to count
Well, let me ask u this... How many times has he spoken? Find that out and u have tha number.
that was alot of information..i'm just gonna say alot..
I would say that Bush lies every time he opens his mouth.
Just to inform you: No one's going to read your novella.
you are not asking are you?
we shouldn't blame him for all the bad without giving him any credit for the goods. 911 didn't happen over night, it was planned before bush was elected. who was on watch before him? perhaps we all know who said something like "no sexual relationship with miss Lewinsky". yeah... it's no big deal, everybody lies.
bottom line, we want our presidents to do the right thing when he or she makes a decision.
Pick out the ones where Bush told us something that he knew was false, but told us it was true. Then you have to prove that his intent in doing so was to decieve us.
If you cannot do this, you cannot prove that Bush lied, about anything.
WOW!
Thats Impressive!!
You have too much time on your hands. If I wanted to waste that much time I can write up just as long a list on Dems. Get a life.
I read ALL the same information you placed in your details for this question on my own accord & I felt like no one else knew any of it, it was frusturating, but I am impressed that you took the time to find out the information that has been out there ... & educated yourself on it because you couldn't be more right!!
Bush has Lied countless, & an overwhelming amount of times ...that I can't keep up with his lies anymore, and beyond that find it mind boggiling that not one single person over there in D.C. or anyone for that matter hasn't stopped this ridiculous spectacle and put their foot down, and yet Americans continue to let this man run our Country .. more or less into the ground is more like it!!
Nice job... on a side note:
... don't you love the conservatives that say that the people that "bash Bush" have no statistics... don't research... and don't know "the facts"... why is it that every time someone says that, they have no idea what they are talking about...
May I suggest Imodium AD? It works real well to control diarrhea at the other end.
Wow! I wonder what the Republicans on this site must be thinking?
Are you sure you didn't miss a couple?? Becuase I think you may have! (LOL)
none
Whenever he opens his mouth, writes a comment, expresses a political or religious position!
no exact figures, but i think this sums up the ugly magnitude of his bloody lies. http://reopening911.blogspot.com/...
I never even heard him say the truth(or for him to admit to any of his mistakes such as,IRAQ)
250-300
too...long
A better question would be, "How do you tell when Bush is lying?" That answer is simple, are his lips moving? Counting occurrences would be unattainable, unless you are starting the count from the beginning of his presidency. One Love People.
Wow. That is amazing! Other than the fact that you repeated yourself, asked a rhetorical question to spread your misinformed and uneducated rhetoric, had no facts to back up anything you said, stated no source for anything you said, and most the things you DID say were not anything that was even capable of being a lie and was just more of an overview of the Liberal biased media since 2000. Idiot.
I notice you didn't list any of your sources.
I also notice that none of your "sources" support your question that I can tell.
I do not believe we have caught Bush in any lies. We have found out that our intelligence was not as good as we had thought.
Oh wait.. what happened in the news the other day? We found weapons of mass destruction and documents discussing WMD's in Iraq.
I notice that some of your first statements mentioned that there were no mentions of Al-Queda early on.. I wonder what happened which brought them to our attention? What happened that made them such a high profile target? hmmm maybe you could help.
USS Cole? No nothing was done about that.
Bombing many American embassys. Again..nothing..
Wait.. I got it..
MAYBE IT WAS SEPTEMBER 11, 2001! Oh yea.. that's right.
Along your logic.. if Bush lied.. then so did: Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry, President Clinton, Madelin Albright, and a bunch of others...
"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ...

Here's an idea. Stop blaming Bush for everything! Try blaming all the people that are responsible. We can take that walk clear back to Carter if i'm not mistaken.
Bill Clinton had three chances to take out Bin Laden, but did nothing.
Stop sucking up everything that Al Franken, Michael Moore, and CNN spit out as fact.
By the way it's obvious you weren't looking for an answer. You were merely looking for an outlet to disseminate (look it up) your drive-by media soundbytes.
"Hate" is a powerful word...
And...
Bush cut budgets from programs such as medicaid, food stamps, farm subsidies, agency budgets (such as from the Pentagon), and student loan programs.
He also raised premiums to employers for government insurance of their employees' and retirees' pension benefits and fees on students who default on loans or consolidate them and higher fees on parents who borrow on behalf of their college-age children.
California Rep. George Miller (news, bio, voting record), the senior Democrat on the panel, called the package a "raid on student aid."
Bush also cut budgets from child support enforcement.
Bush tightened eligibility standards for foster care assistance in nine states and delay some lump-sum payments to very poor and elderly beneficiaries of Social Security's Supplemental Security Income program.
Bush also eliminated payments to industries harmed by unfair foreign trade practices.
"They are targeting programs for poor people to pay for tax cuts for rich people," said Rep. David Obey (news, bio, voting record), D-Wis. Once those tax cuts are passed, Obey added, deficits will be increasing again.
On the student loan information sheet, the maximum amount a first-year college student could receive as a loan from the government is $2625 or somewhere in that proximity. That amount will cover less than 1/5 of college expenses for a university with annual expenses (everything including books, tuition, room & board, etc.) of $14,000.00. I know because I will be a first-year college student and I already feel the pressure.
So...
Do I like Bush? Not really; I hate him; I hate him; I hate him; I hate him; I hate him; I hate him; I hate him. "Hate" is, indeed, a powerful word, much more powerful than "dislike," but it is so often used it is sometimes meaningless. I hate every f%^#*@$ thing Bush has done in office. Add one more word to "hate" and it has a whole new meaning. And I do hate every f%^#*@$ thing Bush has done in office. He said he'd make America a better place, which was a fat *** lie. Just look at all the budget cuts to programs that aid the middle and lower class, which America mostly consist of. He's a liar, he's making America a worse country.
geez you need to spend less time hating and more time contemplating why he "lied" cause you accept all of these as facts without a lot of backup/ dilligent research. if any were really true congress the democrats would have impeached long ago for retalliation for impeachemnt of Swell Old Bill
get a grip on reality...quick before it escapes you
I did not bother reading .make it short and simple. AND what President hasn't????????...
How many times have you lied? (countless, evidently!)
Those aren't lies just from Bush, but his whole campain.
