Posted by Kate at October 24, 2009 12:03 AMMost telling was the early 20s woman who looked shocked, visibly open-mouthed, as she confessed how confused she was by what she had expected and how impressed she was by the experience.
For those who either admired president Bush throughout his term or thought there was something more substantive underneath the hatchet jobs of Hollywood and the Beltway, vindication is a good word. Things aren't always as they seem. You were right all along about George W. Bush.
never believe anyone with bigger earrings than your mum.
Posted by: cal2 at October 23, 2009 10:19 PMThe 9/11 "Truthers" just won't give it a rest, will they?
Even if I were a leftie demonstrator, I'd have some concerns about these buffoons joining my protest.
It's one thing to have strong views against Bush, another to believe in lunatic conspiracies about him.
Most demonstrations already push the limits of credibility as it is, why confirm you're all moonbats by having these loons participate?
Posted by: JJM at October 23, 2009 10:32 PMTheir ability to operate for minutes on end away from their tinfoil hats is truly impressive.
"Why won't the Saskatoon police force arrest George Bush? He's a criminal! Do your job!" Isn't it cute when the Left get all law-and-orderish?
I also liked the peacenik in military fatigues and absolutely loved the "CSIS" guy.
Posted by: Mississauga Matt at October 23, 2009 10:39 PMWhat an idiot. Why is it that these lefties always wear strange earrings?
I'm a little disappointed nobody took it upon themselves to heckle the guy just a bit. I would have.
Posted by: Soccermom at October 23, 2009 10:46 PMCal2 and Soccermon - those are not earrings - it's just residual excrement. When one has shit for brains, and the brain leaks, well, do you get the picture?
Posted by: Whorehouse piano player at October 23, 2009 10:56 PMHey now, those earings have replaced the tinfoil hats and are up to 78.7% more efficient at blocking the NSA and CSE.
Why do you think that elite CSIS agent had to break cover to get up so close to him?

Posted by: wallyj at October 23, 2009 11:15 PMMy favourite comments are the ones regarding spending hard earned money to listen to GWB. So if its your money why does that concern the bullhorn announcer? And what are those weird things in his ears? Fruit - as in yellow bananas? Cheers.

Ouch! Take that, you Saskatchewhatsits!
Maybe not over the decibel level, but certainly over the stupidity level.

But from Saskatchewan blog to America's ears, eh? Heh.
Posted by: Kate at October 23, 2009 11:52 PMIlliquid I agree. It seems the louder the bullhorn the less sense they make. Maybe they should have a built in Taser operated by remote activated by anyone's panic button on their car remote. Freedom to ignore freedom of speech.

I seem to recall Ronald Reagan doing a private talk for Jimmy Pattison's- ( BC billionaire and alround pretty fair mover & shaker...for those unfamiliar) -people in sunny Kelowna after he left the Whithouse in the late '80's.
Posted by: simon at October 24, 2009 12:08 AMYup, that video was pretty boring. Just how seriously can you take a guy with bananas in his ears? It reminds me of an encounter I once had with an architect who was delivering a bid on a project I was involved in. He was in the process of becoming a woman. He had boobs and fancy women's shoes on, but his face and voice were very masculine. As he was talking to me, it was all I could do to keep from looking at his chest. I was just trying to get the cognitive dissonance out of my mind at the same time as trying to stop myself from smirking out loud. I don't remember a word he said.
Posted by: Louise at October 24, 2009 12:09 AMY'all might have it wrong. Many of them are actually Libertarians and disaffected Conservatives and hate Obama as much as they hate Bush.

Posted by: marc in calgary at October 24, 2009 12:24 AMI believe this shows that many who suffer from BDS have a low attention span.....they need to be connected to the media 24/7 to maintain their mania.
Given the left's tendency to violence, I can only ponder the mayhem when the econuts finally realise how much BS this CO2 ASW nonsense really is......they will make a woman scorned seem harmless.
I went to see Bush in Calgary - his first speaking engagement after leaving the presidency. He was great, articulate and engaging. It sure sounds like he's using the same speech over and over - his perogative I guess.
The protestors outside were bizarre. One guy kept on yelling repeatedly "Nuke the suburbs". I had to take time off work to go - but I kept on thinking - don't these people have jobs??
Posted by: Erik Larsen at October 24, 2009 12:32 AMMarc, he worked for a firm in Edmonton. Maybe you know him. LOL!!
Posted by: Louise at October 24, 2009 12:32 AMYa sure,
next you're gonna tell me that Obama won't "stop the seas from rising" and bring the world together in eternal peace.
Sheesh, so gullible.
someone should show up with a bullhorn and face him and yell in his face from 3 feet away.

Posted by: kdl at October 24, 2009 1:12 AMPeople Protest Private Citizen. I'm not sure if this tin-foil-hat-wearing protestors pay attention to the news, but Bush hasn't been President for about nine months.
Posted by: Dean at October 24, 2009 1:22 AMWhen I was in line I first thought their sign said "Research Build a Bear". Ha. From what I could see everyone waited patiently the hour it took to get in and just laughed at the goofs protesting. It was an excellent display of the silent majority. 150 or so loud obnoxious protesters and 2000 civilized people choosing how they wanted to spend their time and money. Bush's speech was well worth seeing.

No.no.no.a thousands times no. The true woman scorned, will make you want to plunge the knife under your pillow through your always open eye so you can finally sleep. I know scorned women.
Erik L. I was at that protest in Calgary, I was one of 3 people on the pro-Bush side, I was kind of disappointed they made the news and I didn't, oh well. The thing that got me was the absolute hatred and hostility from these people. Some of these enlightened citizens took the time to come over and yell in my face, threaten me with violence, call me a racist and spit on me, yes, spit on me. Because I didn't want to be beaten up in a mob scene I just kept repeating to people "thanks for your opinion" and stayed close to the police. When a nice girl came over and challenged my opinion, I pointed out the 9/11 truthers yelling at me 6 feet away and this seemingly nice, smart girl proceeded to agree with them 100%. GWB had caused it all and that was that. Ever since that day I am still shocked at how many people believe 9/11 was an inside job.

Okay....sooooooo....we should keep them in feed sacks and divorce them by just saying I divorce you three times? Oh wait.That would put lawyers out of a job..heh
And the fem-nazis in 5...4...3..
"9/11 was an inside job,do some research". Heh,heh.Heh,heh,heh.---- Where does one start? Truthers may very well be the by-product of the 'my little johnny/jane is so precious and precosious,isn't he/she? I let him/her explore his/her surroundings without interference ,because after all ,(flip hair now),he/she has to absorb the world on his/her own terms,without interference from our indoctrinated beliefs.Oh,look now, isn't he/she so cute,you know,it's not what you think,when little noodles was in my belly,I read him/her stories about other cultures,one used to dive off platforms at puberty,I think he/she took it to heart,the head-banging is a sign of intelligence. He/she is such a darling....Yeah,rant on.------------------------------------------------ I have a big problem with 'truthers' and this " do your research" screaming a-hole highlights a lot of it. 'Truthers' are now fading away,but they caused damage. 'Truthers' are useful idiots at best,and I strongly believe that the ones who keep the 'inside job' speil alive are treasonous scum. They are swaying public opinion towards the idea that 'Bushitler and Co.' are the real evil in the world,while the islamists are victims.Unfortunately.they have been successful. 'Truthers' want you to think that our soldiers are dying because of a 'BIG OIL' scam. They would rather have our soldiers point their guns at the Americans than the Taliban.The Americans are evil,the islamic barbarians are misunderstood.The 'lying fat bastard' should be hung.----------- If any 'truther' actually did research,they would quickly realize the impossibility of rigging up an occupied building with explosives to bring it down,esp 3 of that size.It is an impossibility. If you ever meet one of these clowns,challenge them.Within a short time they will resort to namecalling,delusional and racist are two of their favourites,but call them on that.'9/11 truthers' have done damage. They should pay. I'll say it again,Michael Moore should be hung,by his fat capitalist neck. Cheers.

Posted by: john at October 24, 2009 8:29 AMThe truther thing......
It's another sign of the dysfunction of the public education system. Students in my neck of the woods are done with science in Grade 10 if they choose.
No wonder there are so many dimwits coming out of high school nowadays, their specialty is downloading, enviro-awareness, and one big happy world.....
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, if the truthers had spent ANY amount of time learning and understanding basic building physics, stresses and forces, along with metallurgy, there would be no conspiracy theory at all. Its basic science. But that would mean actually sitting down, reading, studying, and working at something useful in life, and from the looks of the rent-a-mob, it's the typical "victimize me" welfare squad! Where was Garth Mullins?
Posted by: DanBC at October 24, 2009 9:13 AMTruthers come from the left, right and centre. They are anti government and hate both Bush and Obama. The 9/11 truther thing is part of a bigger picture though. It's part of the resistance to a UN socialist world government. I suspect many here would oppose the same things they oppose. Like I posted above... many are Libertarians and disaffected Conservatives.
Posted by: justsayin at October 24, 2009 9:27 AMIf y'all want to educate yourselves about the fight against tyranny in America, go to infowars.com and maybe see the new documentary "Fall of the Republic - The Presidency of Barack Obama".
The 9/11 thing is similar to the Gulf of Tonkin or USS Maine incidents to some.
There are those that oppose the war for reasons some here would agree with... some don't want to pay tax money to rebuild another nation, some just don't care about Afghanistan, some still believe in the principle of non interference like the founding fathers, etc.
It's possible to hate both Republicans and Democrats.
It's all about freedom boys and girls.

He's the kind of guy that makes a great neighbour.
God Bless him!

It won't be much longer before that sort of thing starts happening then ... the civil war will begin.
Then the Left with it's pathological fear of firearms will be phoning Chavez, Castro, Gordon Brown, The UN and Code Pink for help.

Especially people like Jeff Gannon!
Posted by: bleet at October 24, 2009 11:51 AMUnfortunately free speech, the greatest gift of democracy, also applies to loud mouth, tinfoil hat wearing, annoying boneheads like this.
Interesting too that green jacket guy is wearing military flight wings and master corporal stripes. I believe this is a criminal offence unless they have been duly awarded.
Oh it would have been priceless to see these clowns try to lay on a citizen's arrest on GWB amidst the secret service, CSIS, and city police.
Posted by: noddyrules at October 24, 2009 11:55 AMCould those mini-bananas in his ears be hearing aids? Perhaps he is only a trifle deaf.
Posted by: HarryR at October 24, 2009 11:57 AMMost truthers are pro gun by the way. Most are constitutionalists. They are not your enemy. They just see no difference between Bush/Obama, Republican/Democrat and think that both are fascists. Commies are easy to spot but fascists not so much. It's why they are screaming for attention. The Government-Business rule of fascism can appear to be capitalism but isn't. Don't be fooled.
Posted by: justsayin at October 24, 2009 12:21 PMIt's good to remember that the Bush family are American blue-bloods, Patricians.
Somehow, tho, GWB had the common touch. The REAL common touch. Not the g-droppin' affectation that Obama sometimes engages in which actually emphasizes his elitism.
Remember those famous hugging pics, esp. the one with the daughter of a slain soldier. Bush FELT THE PAIN, not the lower lip-quivering, it's-show-time pain of a Bill Clinton.
Bless George W Bush.
While I'm TOTALLY PISSED with GWB I have never waivered from my post-9/11 opinion that he is a good and thoroughly decent man.
Earring comments above. LOL.
I'm kinda neutral on them, but I have a strange explosive reaction to Men In Ponytails for some reason probably best not to delve into!
Those protesters = Swine wallowing in manure
Posted by: OMMAG at October 24, 2009 12:52 PMGWB received an award in Saskatoon from the Saskatchewan prolife assoc. for his accomplishments in that area. their statement includes a good answer to 'prolife does not =war' red herring. Comparing GWB to Obama, its easy to see the diff. in natural intelligence, wit, and integrity. GWB has it all over BHO. And GWB doesn't have the thin skin of a wuss, either.
Posted by: lwestin at October 24, 2009 1:12 PMShorter "me no dhimmi":
Though GW Bush was a member of the aristocracy who never did a day's work in hs life and had his dad bail him out of every failed venture, he's a man of the people.
While Obama and Clinton who were born poor and had to fight for everything they got, they're part of the elite.
Why? 'Cause 'me no dhimm' like the rest of you has no ability to think for himself. He believes what he's told, facts be damned!
Check out this:!
"Bush's brand of forthright tough-guy populism can be appealing, and it has played well in Texas. Yet occasionally there are flashes of meanness visible beneath it.
While driving back from the speech later that day, Bush mentions Karla Faye Tucker, a double murderer who was executed in Texas last year. In the weeks before the execution, Bush says, Bianca Jagger and a number of other protesters came to Austin to demand clemency for Tucker. 'Did you meet with any of them?' I ask.
Bush whips around and stares at me. 'No, I didn't meet with any of them,' he snaps, as though I've just asked the dumbest, most offensive question ever posed. 'I didn't meet with Larry King either when he came down for it. I watched his interview with , though. He asked her real difficult questions, like 'What would you say to Governor Bush?' 'What was her answer?' I wonder.
'Please,' Bush whimpers, his lips pursed in mock desperation, 'don't kill me.'"
Hey, what a great guy! Bless GW Bush!
Posted by: bleet at October 24, 2009 1:13 PM
tranio - yes, I agree.
When the eye of history, rather than the mouth of prejudice and ignorance, moves in with its objective reasoning capacities, Bush will be defined as one of the great presidents of the US. A humble man committed to democracy and fairness.
As for his background of wealth vs non-wealth, that's irrelevant. Some people are programmed by their past. Why, our legal system is focused on excusing people who are criminals as products of their past. Others rise above it.
We can see someone who is programmed by his past Obama, who has become a pathological narcissist, focused on a deep need to control people into mindless adulation. Others are nurtured within their past, moving on to a maturity of knowledge and a commitment to service. Unfortunately, Obama hasn't done this, and his past record, most of which is hidden, shows us his indifference to long hours of slogging analytic work, and his focus only on that public 'roar of applause'.
Posted by: ET at October 24, 2009 1:30 PMkevin at 222 - I remember seeing you! Not too hard to pick out pro-Bush people at the rally!
You are indeed a brave person . . . .
Posted by: Erik Larsen at October 24, 2009 1:52 PMbleet: (I'm considering you not to be a troll here):
I'll give you this: I'm pissed that he did not pardon Scooter Libby. That was certainly mean-spirited in the extreme. It truly mystified me.
I never said he was a perfect man, only a good man. And a man with the common touch despite his patrician background.
Obama is not a man who struggled out of poverty, and btw, he never did a "honest day's" work in his life either and for some strange reason has (allegedly) spent 100s of thousands of dollars keeping his personal history under wraps.
He was brought up in relatively privileged circumstances by his "typical white person" mother-in-law. Have you ever seen a pic of his private school in Hawaii (sp?)? Pretty spiffy!
And oh, one more thing: most of the great communist leaders of the past also came from privileged--middle and upper class--backgrounds.
Finally, don't you find the left extremely uncharitable when they bring up his early alcoholism without crediting him for beating it? I actually have a alcoholic hard left friend who does this!
Posted by: Me No Dhimmi at October 24, 2009 2:01 PMI have asked this question numerous times since 9/11. If Bush did it, when did he start to plan it. He was inaugurated in Jan and this happened in Sept. For someone who the media and others said is so dumb, how did he pull it off.
I understand GWB was presented with an award while in Saskatoon. Anyone know about it.
And why would anyone expect a criminal to be arrested in Canada, it is the citizens who catch them that are in trouble.
If they want criminals arrested start with those involved with the sponsorship scandal.
I read Gormly's article quite good,& have only viewed a little of the tape. Anyways getting back to the Gormly article I find a strong comparison's to whats happening in our own country.
And thats is the our PM has been labeled and mainly by our MSM, which in turn allows the spinning effect by the Opposition to the reg guy/gal in the corner coffee shop.
Harper war monger, Harper Bush clone, Harper Neo-con, Harper inpersonal it goes on & on. Then you have the media in this country When has the media(other then Rutherford or Gormly just to say a few) given a good grade or article on the PM? Never they are constant critical, looking for the dirt, the scandal.
Canadians are quite pleased with our PM, just look at the polls they are pleased with the way he is handling this stressfull economic time Which was not brought on by him. But No the MSM just just skewers him at every turn. Now as for the looney left Well they will never be happy, spend more spend less & their ever famous line thats what canadians want,(Ya Right, what we want is to shut the hell up and stop implying All Canadians).
bleet - I don't really think that Obama had to fight for much in his life, although not as privileged as Bush - he didn't have to struggle like Clinton did.
Thanks for reminding me about karla faye tucker - I think it was a mistake to execute her, and really disagreed with that decision at the time.
Posted by: Erik Larsen at October 24, 2009 2:22 PMThis dude is a dolt. The lose change documentary puts the blame for 9/11 on the US government, alleging they carried it out, then in the next sentence he talks about the CIA training Bin Laden...so which is it?
Posted by: tim at October 24, 2009 2:45 PMI always get a laugh when people believe crap like 9/11 was an inside job and the towers were dropped by explosives. Our government bureaucracies, by their very nature, never attract the best and brightest and whenever there is anything challenging have to bring in outside consultants who of course rip the fools for big bucks every time, witness EHealth. They weaken their own rules leading to companies exploiting them hence the current economic debacle. Then they mumble, how could this have happened just because we forced the banks to lend money to those who couldn't repay it! These are the giant brains that planned 9/11.
Yet somehow this bumbling crowd secretly wired up the towers and were never noticed by the thousands of national and international people who worked there and nothing was ever mentioned to the hundreds of thousands these people were in contact with, not a peep from them or the hundreds of government guys and the attached companies supplying the equipment to do the job. Nixon was brought down by a lowly security guard noticing a piece of tape over a door lock.
And for what, so the US could spend its treasure and blood to attack some muslims squating in the dirt in Afghanistan or go after the oil in Iraq when they could have bought it for a fraction of the money spent occupying the country!
Posted by: Dave at October 24, 2009 2:57 PMI like GWB and I to think he is an honest and patriotic man who rose to the challenge of 9/11. With all the information presented to him he stated he believed at that time that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction and if the US had done nothing Iran and Iraq would now be racing to develop nuclear weapons as Iran is currently doing.
With Imanutjob in charge in Iran we all should be worried as these idiots will surely fire one off yelling "allah akbar",
I smiled when a friend of mine went to Bill Clinton speech and thought he was so eloquent. When in contrast to the lady who listened to Bush's speech I asked my friend what did Clinton talk about she didn't remember but it sure sounded good.
Posted by: Dave at October 24, 2009 3:12 PMThanks Iwestin, I knew he got the award, as the lady that presented it e-mailed me the photo of GWB with his arm across her shoulder. Just wondered it it got any coverage. She can display that with her photo of her and PMSH.

Posted by: reg dunlop at October 24, 2009 6:14 PM'Truther'Lorne,the buildings fell because of fire and,you might not remember this,BIG f'en airplanes hitting into them. Why don't you add a bit of truth to your talking points? 8 years later,15 million or so 'truthers',and not one of them have actually got past the point that "if it looks like a controlled demolition,it must be one"so lets work backwards and blame Bush. Fools,I'd bet that most of them have had relations with ladies that have large hands and prominent Adam's apples. Gee,it sure looked like a woman.
Posted by: wallyj at October 24, 2009 6:32 PMFor those who care, I did a preview and a review of the Edmonton Bush show on my blog:
The review is here - http://3edgesword.blogspot.com/2009/10/george-w-bush-event-review-edmonton.html
Posted by: FACLC at October 24, 2009 6:35 PM"Things aren't always as they seem. You were right all along about George W. Bush."
Thanks. We know.
Posted by: The Phantom at October 24, 2009 8:49 PMWell, 'me nodhimmi'
I suppose if you think Bush is a 'good man' after the incident I cited above in which he mocked the pleas of a woman he executed as governor of Texas, you'll think he's a 'good man' knowing that he executed far more people (152) than any governor in the history of Texas, and more than any governor in recent US history.
You'll also think he's a 'good man' after knowing of an incident depicted in the Bob Woodward bok 'The War Within': after announcing the 'surge' Bush went to Fort Benning to speak to military personnel and their families. His commanders on the ground, Gernerals Casey and Abezaid both opposed the surge. But Bush, when addressing military personnel and their families told them "the commanders on the ground in Iraq" supported the surge.
If 'goodness', for you, constitutes lying to the very soldiers being sent to kill and die for him (and if it also constitutes frightening the American people with visions of 'mushroom clouds' to launch an illegal war, or sending his minions out to tell people that Iraq had something to do with 9/11, or adopting the very same torture techniques used by the Nazis), well, by gosh you're right Bush is a 'good man'. And everbody should just stop pickin' on him, darn it, and give him props for stoppin' drinkin'!
Posted by: bleet at October 24, 2009 9:11 PMHey BLEET you f'n pin head. Bush didn't execute anybody. The State executes cold blooded killers. If we follow your philisophy then PET, Chretien ( minister of justice), Clark, Mulrooney, Roy Romanow ( atorney general of Sask ), and all other senior people in Government are responsible for David Milguard's raw deal. By the way, when the baby killer from the Yellowquill first nation gets out from jail he should come live next door to you. See if you still have sympathy foe a waste of skin. COLD BLOODED MURDERERS HAVE NO RIGHTS PERIOD.

Posted by: Alex at October 24, 2009 10:59 PMGeorge W Bush did the unthinkable in the feather brains of all the left wing liberals in the world - he foiled the 'plan' of the UN and their co conspirators to drive the price of oil through the roof via 'cheap oil for $$' scam with the co-operation of a monster named Saddam Hussein. U.S.A., Austrailia, Italy, GB, and some other countries were out of the UN/Liberal loop to rake in the big bucks by selling Saddam's cheap oil (for them) on the open market instead of trading 'oil for food and medicine' as dictated by the UN sanction of Iraq after the first Gulf War.
The far left media were up in the filth to their teeth so they kept their mouths shut. President Bush invaded Iraq when Saddam refused to let UN inspectors in and smashed the piggy bank of the evil doers who were willing to deprive the people of Iraq of food and medicine to enrich themselves and the World Government Organization's plans to make all people 'equally poor'. When GW took on the evil monsters the media and others turned on him; thinking people never did because we knew it was a last ditch fight for Liberty. GW won in Iraq before he left office...someday he will be seen for the great President and courageous man that he is; much to the shame of the msm 'useful idiots' and the simple minded who believed what the 'human haters' told them.
God Bless G.W Bush. I miss his presence in the Whitehouse, I used to sleep at night because I knew that 'rough men guarded the border' under the orders of a rough Man in the Whitehouse; now; not so much...

Re Karla Faye Tucker - I thought at the time he should have commuted her sentence, and resigned his governorship - and lived a comfortable life. But he had other things on his mind I guess. (For a great look at Texas justice, please everyone see Errol Morris' documentary "Thin Blue Line". There's a lot wrong WRT to implementation of the death penalty down there.)
I can't comment about the Fort Benning incident - I have no beta on that
WRT mushroom clouds - I think that presidents lately have been politicians above all else, and have little science training - I've been watching the "Physics for Future Presidents" online - a course offered at Berkeley - the guy is balanced and sensible. He gives great dissertations about the risks (and benefits!!) surrounding nuclear power, and real-life difficulties surrounding nuclear devices as "terrorists' weapons".
So Bush is not alone in not knowing adequately the science behind these scenarios.

Damn they are irritating, and like roaches they just don't go away.

"Those who refuse to take the necessary actions to fight against those who threaten their security, for fear of slight and temporary encroachments on liberty, will lose their liberty as well as their security, because those who threaten their security do so in order to threaten their liberty as well."

"Most truthers are pro gun by the way. Most are constitutionalists. They are not your enemy. They just see no difference between Bush/Obama, Republican/Democrat and think that both are fascists. Commies are easy to spot but fascists not so much."
If they see no difference between Bush and Obama they're even stupider than I thought. And I don't believe most of them are constitutionalists at all. Every one I run across or hear about is a liberal at best, and a lefty moonbat at worst. Some might be Buchananites, but that is no recommendation. When last seen Pitchfork Pat was running for President with a lifelong Marxist as his running mate. No real conservative he.
