During the 40-minute speech, Bush also promised to bring an end to the severe war drought that plagued the nation under Clinton, assuring citizens that the U.S. will engage in at least one Gulf War-level armed conflict in the next four years.

Oh lordy.. hahaha :D How right they were.

Scary thought. Bush has been president longer than I\'ve posted on these boards. That is a long ass time. If I live to be 100, Bush would have been president for almost a tenth of my life.

Those quotes aren\'t real are they?...i can\'t imagine him really sayin\' stuff like that with nobody saying anything about it...especially that talk of war.

"a sharp decrease in crime, and sustained peace overseas. The time has come to put all of that behind us."

"You better believe we\'re going to mix it up with somebody at some point during my administration," said Bush, who plans a 250 percent boost in military spending. "Unlike my predecessor, I am fully committed to putting soldiers in battle situations. Otherwise, what is the point of even having a military?"


^^^Bush said this?...i don\'t think even he would have been stupid enough to say anything like that...
