Delegates ‘proud’ of Bush

From CNN.com Senior Political Producer Scott J. Anderson
Bush addressed the GOP convention Tuesday.

ST. PAUL, Minnesota (CNN) – His popularity may be at an all-time low, but President Bush’s comments at the Republican National Convention were warmly received by many of the delegates.

“His speech basically passed the baton to John McCain,” Mark Quandahl, chairman of the Nebraska state party said.

Bush addressed the convention via satellite from the White House. Bush was originally scheduled to speak on the opening night of the convention. But he was forced to cancel as Hurricane Gustav bore down on the Gulf Coast. Quandahl said, “delegates would have preferred to have him here, but he did the right thing.”

NO! This is a complete fucking untruth! God said "GEE-ORGY, YOU FUCKING SUCK SO BAD, I'M SENDING A HURRICANE TO PROTECT INNOCENT AMERIKANTS' STUPID ASSES FROM THE HORROR OF YOURSELF IN PERSON."

Bush spent much of Monday visiting hurricane response centers in Texas.

Kathi Thompson, the wife of a retired Army officer from Hawaii, said whatever you think of President Bush’s administration, “He never wavered, and what you see is what you get.”

“[Bush] is a man of conviction,” she added.

Liz Tait from Houston, Texas, said “We’re extremely proud of him.”

“He kept us safe, and he fought for the values we believe in,” she said.

(If by 'safe', you mean that he's taking away our rights to privacy and self-governance. And, if that means endangering all of us by stirring up shit in the Midd1e East, and leaving TWO fucking wars going when he "retires" to his Port Hyannis or whatever it's called, playground to live out the rest of his days watching softcore porn cleverly disguised as, ahem, Women's Beach Volleyball....)
