Bush Lied About Giving Up Golf: Video Proof

Bush said he made that decision after the August 2003 bombing of the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad, which killed Sergio Vieira de Mello, the top U.N. official in Iraq and the organization's high commissioner for human rights.

"I remember when de Mello, who was at the U.N., got killed in Baghdad as a result of these murderers taking this good man's life," he said. "I was playing golf -- I think I was in central Texas -- and they pulled me off the golf course and I said, 'It's just not worth it anymore to do.'"

In fact, Bush went golfing two months after the bombing of the UN headquarters, and Keith Olbermann found the video:"

Bush Lied About Giving Up Golf: Video Proof

Let me just add to this that anyone can staple a date to a video. So I will just say this whole story is a LIE.

Hey, if they can call Bush a liar on just about anything, turn-about is fair play.

Huffington Post... what a bunch of left-wing hate-blather.

I will give you another? He bombed empty training camps.

Now they got real scared. So much so they destroyed a big Budda.

excerpt from Bush warns of Iraq disaster - Mike Allen - Politico.com
For the first time, Bush revealed a personal way in which he has tried to acknowledge the sacrifice of soldiers and their families.
“I don't want some mom whose son may have recently died to see the commander in chief playing golf,” he said. “I feel I owe it to the families to be in solidarity as best as I can with them. And I think playing golf during a war just sends the wrong signal.”

update from Bush: I quit golf over Iraq war - Yahoo! News
The US president traced his decision to the August 19, 2003 bombing of UN headquarters in Baghdad, which killed the world body's top official in Iraq, Sergio Vieira de Mello.
Bush's last round of golf as president dates back to October 13, 2003, according to meticulous records kept by CBS news.

The point is, the utter failure pretends to have empathy -- if you call giving up golf anywhere near an equivalent experience as losing a loved one -- and can't even keep his lie straight. This from a person who, after helping create so many disabled vets (and martyrs), promptly forgot about them except for a few photo ops.

Lets see...the Clintons say they support "Public education"? Lie....where did their daughter go to school? Not in a DC public school......

So many Dem lie's, where do we even start.

Must be a slow week if this is the best the nutties can come up with to bash Bush.

"Bush plays golf! Oh noes! "

Give Clinton Credit, he left it alone and didn't screw it up.

Ask anyone in the old Yugosolvia, they hate the USA now. Thanks Clinton.

This failure-at-everything (even the oil biz!) hasn't done anything right except possibly getting his Girls Gone Wild daughter married off before she started her litter.
Want to talk about wasting America's foreign policy currency? No country "likes" the US except the ones paid to, and most of them still dis Bush & country in order to get a better deal. Even his Arab masters poot in his face while he's kissing their asses. The Japanese don't hate Truman as much as the rest of the world hates Bush.
Clinton got a BLOWJOB, a HETERO blowjob from a CONSENTING ADULT. Poor taste? Yes. Shouldn't have lied about it, either, but the Republican witch-hunters should stay out of everyone else's sex life. (Funny how so may of those zealots cheat on their wives or get caught with hookers, or boys, or hooker-boys, or...)
I think the women who can't get over it hate Hillary for not reaming him with a divorce -- even though THEY would not have had the 'nads to do so either -- and the men are just jealous 'cause he got so much -- even though they think she is fat THEY wouldn't have turned down those puffy lips either.
Clinton wasted a Tomahawk missile on an empty tent. How many men & women has Bush wasted flailing around for Al Qaeda? And this is how many years after MISSION ACCOMPLISHED? Every week or month we're told on the front page that they captured the head of Al Qaeda and the next week there is a retraction buried somewhere behind the latest Britney news. Remember the vow to get Osama no matter what? Then later it was "not a priority." Clinton's administration actually handed over a predictive playbook spelling out what was likely to happen and it was promptly ignored because the Bush cadre was busy plotting how to further empower Halliburton and the oil-pigs.
So Chelsea went to private school. The D-student spoiled-brat claims "no child left behind" and backs it up with squat.
Clinton got rid of budget deficits (even with a Republican-controlled Congress) while the AWOL alcoholic that owned both houses until recently has been spending like the proverbial drunken Democrat AND taking away your civil liberties at the same time.
Yeah, good on you. You got the leader that you deserve.

We got the leader we deserve. Talk about BDS!

Presidents in the long run are judged by their achievements/notoriety. Why don't you post your idea of the paragraph included in a history book 100 years from now describing Clinton's Presidency and then Bush's Presidency.

This could be interesting.
