When a Nation has a disrespectful, sophmoric and childish Leader as President, I would think it is only natural that he receive disrespectful, childish and sophmoric comments and/or criticism.

Quite frankly I doubt many are looking forward to yet another of Bush's Prime Time Iraq addresses. His Iraq address is never changing. It's the same old rhetoric.

We have a new Strategy based on actionable intelligence.(is "actionable intelligence" actually a word?) Look that up Laura.

We have begun to make progress in Iraq ............ We need to give it more time. (It's only been six long years)

We have to finish what we started for the sake of the Iraqui people and American Pride.

To cut an run now is not an option.

If we leave now we will be fighting terrorists on our shores instead of their shores.

To leave now is to admit defeat and America is not a defeatish Nation. (Is "defeatish" a word Laura, look that up)

Our brave soldiers are making progress we need to let them do their job.

These are hard times but we are up to the challenge. (we?) I hear a Rudy in that one.

We have brought Democracy to Iraq. They are now a Democratic Nation.
(Obvious from the visuals we receive of constant bombings and blood shed)

Gimme a Break.

President Bush is not an embarrassment; however, these sophmoric and childishly disrespectful comments on this page are an embarrassment. No wonder Europe looks down on America's scholars as stupid and inferior.

Excellent ! I was hoping to see one more State-of-the-Union-style address with all the pomp and circumstance, and President Bush proving all the naysayers wrong.

He's failed miserably at doing that even one time, so I'm puzzled as to why you expect the inarticulate liar to do so this time.

There hasn't been such a miserable failure as president in U.S. history until Georgie Boy.

/***
President Bush will "very likely" speak to the nation about the latest developments and conditions in Iraq during a prime time address next week...

Can you say, lowest Nielsen ratings ever?

Is there anyone that really gives a damn about what our Worst. President. Ever. says about the Iraq war?

I hope in the TV listings the speech is labeled properly as "Fiction."

How many more generations have to pass before we, as a society, get it in our heads, that no human, or group of humans are capable for governing the majority?

We still can't end the most common ailments to mankind. We mask them with drugs, we ignore them with new age thinking, we avoid them by being busy in material and commerical pursuits.

It doesn't matter, nor will it ever matter, what human president is in power, what promises they make before, and how ineffective they are in meeting them.

Man will continue to dominate man to his injury! In the oval office, in the community and in the jungle.

Put your energy into your families, you only get 80 years, don't waste it on this repetitive foolishness....

Gee, I am looking forward to some spin, spin, spin, and some butchering of the English language.

Kick Fanny Dubya, Kick Fanny! Your own fanny right outta Washington. My fellow South Carolinians will be sad though. 70% of the Republican constituents in SC approve of Dubya's job performance.....unbelievable.

Bush has no credibility!

I tune him out!

Oh, we will have a new plan.
The way forward

That is what George calls his Iraq debacle.
Then it had to be ammended.

The new way forward.
The next way forward.
Some way forward.
Which way is forward.
Forward my mail to Paraguay, I'm outta here.

Wonder how many times he will say 9/11?

I look forward to it. I have been amazed at how many times when I have heard President Bush speak I find myself supporting him. He is always sincere and real.

lame duck since 2004.

My stomach doesn't get so sick anymore when I see him. I just don't believe anything he says. I've kind of numbed up and just hope we can get to Jan. 2009 without him doing something even more outrageous, like going for the red button. I think he should be under full-time psychiatric observation.

"... as Congress prepares to vote on timetables to withdraw U.S. troops from the country."

Uh, why is the Congress preparing to vote on anything related to the war?

Congress does not run a war. The commander in chief does. Congress does not have the Constitutional authority to do so.

Congress DOES, however, have the power of the purse (such a trite phase). If they want to end a war, fine... just vote to cut off funding. In other words, quit your posturing, put your money where your mouth is, do what you believe is correct (even though it's not) be man enough to make a damn decision and stick with it, and be prepared to weather the political fallout that will inevitably follow.

Anything short of that is cowardly ankle-biting and impotent grandstanding. Do you hear that, Chuckie Shumer and Dick Turbin?

But that will never happen, because while Democrats like to sit in the safety of the Congress and take sniping potshots at the commander in chief, they know which side their bread is buttered on... they're savvy enough to realize the American public would kick their lilly white a**es right out of Congress if they voted to cut off funding in the middle of a war.

Dems are not stupid. They may hate Bush. They may hate the war. But they like their own comfort more, and reelection means more to dems than intellectual honesty. So don't worry, they're not about to cut off funding for this war. At least not before the 2008 elections... after that, all bets are off.

GROAN, ANOTHER 27 MINUTES OF LIES.

Who cares what he has to say? Who would believe a word of it at this point? Who???

SHHHHHHH!!!!!

Be still....let W ramble on and on....it will only ensure a Democrat win in 08....and oh yeah...Craig needs to fight back and stay in his seat...that way the Democrats win the Presidency AND Congress with a heavy majority...Stand by as the GOP continues to self destruct...unless you are tuned into the ROVE network of lies.

Here's One who won't be watching.
By Bother? When he's all said and done
no one will know if he spoke the truth, or the other version due to the consequences of the truth or the other version to keep the world thinking we're Really Kickin Ass in Iraq, or the other version to try to make the Dems look like THE problem.

Personally I don't have any interest in what Bush might have to say, or in what he might have to do, or in what he might not have to do, or in the jeuvenile jargons he might wish to spew.

Another waste of good air time. Why don't you put Bill Clinton on again instead. At least, what he says makes sense, his language is understandable, he captures an audience with his class and savy, and his insight on world issues is truly interesting compared to Bush who has no insight unless Rove is available to tutor him before he goes on air. Of course any insight Rove could supply wouldn't be anything of interest or value.

Does it need to be posted again? Has your liberal agenda not been blantantly exploited enough on your blogs here CNN? Please make sure to censor and delete the positive opposing viewpoints, and keep the seditious anti-government comments alive and well for all the world to see. Keep that true form! Oh yeah...Bin laden now agrees with you and the libs for the direction of America....Congrats on that one. Where's the blog?

The momentum has shifted in Iraq. Can U handle it?

The momentum has shifted in Iraq. Can U handle it?

Does anyone really care to hear more lies from this looser? We have been subjected to more reterick than should be allowed.Give it up George.

It would be nice if experts were to watch and look of signs of deception! Like, "his lips are moving"

Why would anybody except the oil business men care about what "dubya" or is it "dumbo" has to say about a civil war in Iraq that he started!

If you want to see an interesting assessment of invading Iraq – look no further that our "vice" presidents remarks on tape at;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BEsZMvrq-I

Then draw your own conclusions as to why we invaded Iraq for the "never to be found" weapons of mass destruction" or for George and Dick's oil profits?

What actually went on with the Dick Cheney's secret energy meetings?

I have many relatives and friends that have died in wars from WW1 to this current "civil war" – when are we going to stand up to the profit driven Corporations and say -ENOUGH!

The first step is to get rid of the corporate political party – the GOP!

Yes my stocks will suffer and my energy will cost more – but, my friends and relatives will be alive!

If we want cheaper energy – invest in education and research – not war!

How about enforcing this policy about the libelous and threatening comments of our President before censoring and deleting any opposing Republican viewpoints CNN – you make it just too obvious you morons.

I was going to rearrange the sock drawer next week, but this is far more exciting.

Actually, all they have to do is roll out footage of his previous addresses because the message will be the same.

I'm hoping he'll give America a real gift and tender his resignation while he's there.

Look for the President's hands – his fingers will be crossed.

Yep, more blind Bush hatred....and the address has not even been scheduled. Yet I am curious how the liberals feel about having Bin laden as their new spokesperson. What? No liberal Bush bashing CNN blog on that?

I think I'll wait until he speaks to judge what he says. It's a quirk of mine I learned in the classroom. I admit it slows things down a bit and it isn't as clever as prejudging and using scatalogical references, but someone has to do it.

His last speech that compared Iraq to Vietnam was almost word for word a Richard Nixon speech defending the Vietnam war!Don't believe me?Watch the movie "The US vs John Lennon",it contains that speech given by Nixon and Bush used it almost word for word.You can learn more about the truth on VH1 than you can by watching George.If his lips are moving you KNOW it's all lies.This whole war has been nothing BUT from day one!

Perhaps we need someone to forcefully advocate the armed overthrow of our government to end this war, not that I'm doing so here. To save this country from its leaders, we may have to waste them, not that there's anything wrong with that.

Bush has no credibility.

Who in their right mind would believe anything he has to say!

I tune him out!

to person from Atlanta who gives monies to support Obama – what in the heck does that have to do with Bush giving a prime time BS speech. And who the hell are you??? Sounds as though you have some issues period with Mr. and Mrs. Obama. Get a grip!!!

It will probably be part of a 9/11 address just to "Kick Ass" with the Democratic Party.
I hope the Democrats follow with Strong Remarks - Jim Webb did a great job last time and they should hold off on any commitment of US Taxpayers Dollars until we start seeing the boys arriving on our shores.

Yawn... Let me guess, re-frame and spew the same old "stay the course".

I've often wondered exactly what country he is the president of. I think his miserble second term, he's been more Iraq's president than ours. I have an idea. Retire and move to Iraq. Create a better Iraq using their people, not ours.

No need "Were Kicking Ass" right.?

Excellent ! I was hoping to see one more State-of-the-Union-style address with all the pomp and circumstance, and President Bush proving all the naysayers wrong.

The generals on the ground in Iraq say we are making progress and want to expend the surge.

Our grand 110th Congress' response:
Run, run, run away...

Millions of people support and endorse Barak Obama but I am becoming more and more annoyed at your negative and degrading statements about your husband and presidential candidate. He is running to be the President of the USA, the most powerful and wonderful country on the planet and you continue to be the only person to make these degrading and hurtful statements about the man.

Are you jealous of his good looks and ambitions? Is it your low self-esteem? What the heck is bothering you about him? Are you still shocked that a man like him would marry a woman like you? What? Please take a moment and reflect on what you are saying because you would not want your words to hurt him politically do you?

Observe other wives and examine how they are supportive of their husbands – regardless. Tear a page out of their books and compose yourself. Try to be dignified and act like a loving and supportive wife. The Obama “handlers” need to definitely advise you and control your emotional and degrading verbal outbursts. Ask for advice, my dear lady.

Lots of us out here want to support you too and we are trying.

Respectfully yours,

One who has given money to the Obama For President campaign

Who want to guess in will be on 9/11, even though Iraq had nothing to do with the attacks?

Our idiot in chief is sooo predictable.

Do you think he'll look straight into the camera and tell us that "We're kicking ass?" (He's delusional and an embarrassment.)

P.S. Where the hell is Condie Rice and what is she doing? You'd think that since we are in a time of war, she'd be pretty busy. Why don't we hear anything from her? What is she doing diplomatically to end this conflict?

Oh good. Another 27 minutes and 12 seconds of "stay the course"......I know I'm excited.
