W. Bush," "We need to change our ethic and aspire to be more Canadian-like,"

of innocent people.” "[George W. Bush is] a half-wit President who was not legally
elected". "Bush’s war on terrorism has turned Americans “from
victims to perpetrator,” "The Devil (Bush) is right at home. The Devil, the Devil
himself, is right in the house." "Bush stole the elections and since then we have all been
suffering the consequences." "We need a different president right away, I think.... I

like his record. He's stupid. He's lazy." "In the 19 months since 9-11, we have seen our democracy
compromised by fear and hatred," "George W. Bush is evil. He is a terrorist. He is evil.
He is arrogant. And he is out of control." "George W Bush is like a bad comic working the crowd, a
moron, if you'll pardon the expression," George W. Bush and his principal officials are the greatest
threat to world peace, to human rights," "It is preposterous for the administration to pretend that
the war in Iraq has made America safer," "The grand destroyer of the world, and the greatest threat
... is represented by U.S. imperialism." "The American attitude is that we believe we have a
right to just go in and bomb another country." "Just so you know, we're ashamed the president of the United
States is from Texas," "He's embarrassing... He's not my president. He will never
be my president" "What the United States has been doing for the past
year is bombing innocent civilians..." "I'll do everything that I can possibly do, short of selling
my children," to beat Bush." “This President invaded a sovereign nation in defiance of
the UN. He is basically a war criminal." "I'd like to see our troops dispersed through the world
only at the directive of the United Nations." "In the last six and a half years we have seen a dangerous
experiment in extremism in the White House." "He is supposed to be America's president, but he's not
my president, I didn't vote for him," How depressing, corrupt, unlawful and tragically absurd
the administration's world view actually is... "I'd say if you live in the United States of America and
you vote for George Bush, you've lost your mind." "And I think the president hijacked 9/11 and used it
to go to war with Iraq, in a way that was very divisive." I mean, I think, Iraqis, I think, feel that if we drove
smaller cars, maybe we wouldn’t have to kill them for their oil.” "I am more patriotic than this president we have, who I
consider a traitor of human and American principles.” "Bush is a tyrant and if he gathers around him black

in history as one of the worst that has ever governed our country." "This week President Bush implemented a military tribunal
... which will make it easier for us to execute (people)." "His agenda is different from ours. His agenda is basically

and criminally obscene people, obscene human beings.." "I think the Abu Ghraib prison scandal really exposes some
of the key lies that we've been telling ourselves about terrorism." "We will take to the streets right now. We will delegitimize
Bush, discredit him, do whatever it takes, but never accept him," "There has never been an administration, I don't believe,
in our history more intent upon consolidating and abusing power to further
their own agenda," “I HATE BUSH. I despise him and his entire administration
— not only because of its international policy, but also the national,” "I have been absolutely amazed, even shocked, at the combination
of arrogance and incompetence that marks this particular administration," "The imperialist, genocidal, fascist attitude of the U.S.
president has no limits. I think Hitler would be like a suckling baby
next to George W. Bush," Iraq is a war on terrorism, and terrorists don't deserve
the Geneva Convention because it's a completely unique way of fighting.
Well, that's ridiculous." “This President invaded a sovereign nation in defiance of
the UN. He is basically a war criminal. Honestly. He should be tried at
The Hague." "It is now clear to the world that the Bush Administration
ignored or twisted the facts, lied and misled the country into war." “Those who want to go directly to hell can follow capitalism...
and those of us who want to build heaven here on earth will follow socialism.” "One of the main purveyors of violence in this world has
been this country, whether it's been against Nicaragua, Vietnam or wherever,"
"Since when is offensive language a reason for being unpopular?
I find the language of George W much more offensive." "The Bush administration asserted a new doctrine that suggests
a uniquely American right to use force wherever and whenever we decide
it's appropriate. "I feel that George Bush's actions are desecrating the America
that I grew up in and believed in. He is making us an imperialist government. "I have never felt more strongly in any other election because
I cannot imagine what our country would look like under four more years
of a Bush administration," "I think the actions of the president are, in my opinion,
the most vile and hateful words ever spoken by a sitting president. I
am stunned, and I'm horrified," "We stand a chance of getting a president who has probably
killed more people before he gets into office than any president in the
history of the United States." "Our current administration needs to be tried, hung and
shot," the singer boldly stated. "We need to treat them like the war criminals
they are." "I think George Bush is such an embarrassment to America
in the way that he doesn't take the rest of the world into consideration."
"Climate change is more remote than terror but a more profound
threat to the future of the children and the grandchildren and the great-grandchildren
I hope all of you have." "While President Bush likes to project an image of strength
and courage, the real truth is that in the presence of his large financial
contributors, he is a moral coward," "I don't want add fuel to the fire, but I don't know
what it's going to take for people to really wake up and understand that
they (the Bush Administration) are liars and they are murderers." "Bush is an incompetent leader. In fact, he's not a leader....
He's a person who has no judgment, no experience and no knowledge of the
subjects that he has to decide upon.'' "President Bush is pushing the wrong buttons when he says,
'Those who are not with us, are against us,... This is an imperialist
vision in which the U.S. leads and the rest of the world follows." "I would think that if you understood what Communism was,
you would hope, you would pray on your knees, that we would someday become
communists." "In two short years, George W. Bush has taught us what the
'W' stands for -- wrong. Wrong for our children, wrong for our parents,
wrong for our values. Wrong, wrong, wrong for America." "This is the pattern and the record of the Bush administration
[on] Iraq, jobs, Medicare, schools, issue after issue -- mislead, deceive,
make up the needed facts, smear the character of any critics," "And the idea is--in that comparison--is that the United
States is like the good guys in our movie against the bad guys in our
movie and I think the opposite is true unfortunately." “The reason that the World Trade Center got hit is because
there are a lot of people living in abject poverty out there who don’t
have any hope for a better life....I think they [the 19 hijackers] were
brave at the very least.” "Shortly after 9/11, particularly because as we're talking
about the Iraq War, that became a substitute for I think true patriotism,
which is speaking out on issues that are of importance to our national
security, I decided I won't wear that pin on my chest." "One could say that Osama bin Laden and these non-nation-state
fighters with religious purpose are very similar to those kind of atypical
revolutionaries that helped to cast off the British crown." "If the American people fail to impeach George Bush
and his principal officials for his war of aggression, the world can only
see the American people as either powerless, or supportive of it." “First and foremost is the idea that we’re going to kill
a lot innocent people, that’s what we’re going to do. That’s what we did
before and it’s what we’re going to do again. And, the truth is...." "Sept. 11 "wasn't just Bin Laden. Bin Laden didn't
come from the abstract. He came from somewhere, and if you look where
... you'll see America's hand of villainy." "President Bush is "a dull and rigid man ... whose
philosophy is a jumble of badly sutured body parts trying to walk," who
is running for president on a platform of tragedy." "The needless blood on your hands, and therefore, on
our own, is drowning the freedom, the security, and the dream that America
might have been, once healed of and awakened by, the tragedy of September
11, 2001." "He's (Osama bin Laden) been out in these countries for
decades, building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building
day-care facilities, building health-care facilities, and these people
are extremely grateful. We haven't done that." "We live in a time with ficticious election results that
elect fictious presidents. We live in a time when we have a man sending
us to war for fictious reasons. We are against this war Mr. Bush. Shame
on you. Shame on you!" "What did this administration know and when did it know
it, about the events of September 11th? Who else knew, and why did they
not warn the innocent people of New York who were needlessly murdered?
What do they have to hide?" "The administration ... decided to launch this invasion
virtually alone and before the U.N. inspections were completed - with
no real urgency, no evidence that there were any weapons of mass destruction
there," "The people around Bush are deeply committed to dismantling
the achievements of popular struggle through the past century no matter
what the cost to the general population." "No matter what the greatest tyrant in the world, the greatest
terrorist in the world, George W. Bush says, we're here to tell you: Not
hundreds, not thousands, but millions of the American people ... support
your revolution," "There's basically two principles that define the Bush
administration policies: stuff the pockets of your rich friends with dollars
and increase your control over the world. Almost everything follows from
that." ''We, the United States of America, are culpable in committing
so many acts of terror and bloodshed that we had better get a clue about
the culture of violence in which we have been active participants.'' "President Bush insists he decides what is right. He
threatens North Korea, Cuba, Syria, Sudan, Venezuela, and most critically
at the moment, Iran." "The ACLU is determined to hold the Bush administration
responsible not just for torture and abuse of detainees, but for the many
other abuses of power that are taking place in the name of fighting terrorism."
"The fact of the matter is that there is no War on
Terror. It's a minor consideration. So invading Iraq and taking control
of the world's energy resources was way more important than the threat
of terror." "Yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, from this rostrum, the
president of the United States, the gentleman to whom I refer as the Devil,
came here, talking as if he owned the world. Truly. As the owner of the
world." "We give an infinitesimal amount of our money to people
around the world. I think what people around the world would say is it
would take so little for this rich country to help and alleviate so much
misery and even that is too much for them. We’re oblivious to suffering.”
"Our paradigm now seems to be: something terrible happened
to us on September 11, and that gives us the right to interpret all future
events in a way that everyone else in the world must agree with us. And
if they don't, they can go straight to hell." "I would like to apologize for referring to George W. Bush
as a "deserter." What I meant to say is that George W. Bush is a deserter,
an election thief, a drunk driver, a WMD liar and a functional illiterate."
"On the morning of September 11, 2001, a few more chickens
along with some half-million dead Iraqi children came home to roost in
a very big way at the twin towers of New York's World Trade Center." "Bush's actions remind me of Herman Goering's quote during
the Nuremberg Trials, where he stated: '...it's always a simple matter
to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship,
or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.'" "This is a racist and imperialist war. The warmongers who
stole the White House (you call them "hawks", but I would never disparage
such a fine bird) have hijacked a nation's grief and turned it into a
perpetual war on any non-white country they choose to describe as terrorist."
"I worry that some people are entertained by the idea of
this war. They don't know anything about the Iraqis, but they're angry
and frustrated in their own lives. It's like Germany, before Hitler took
over. The economy was bad and people felt kicked around. They looked for
a scapegoat. Now we've got a new bunch of Hitlers." "I fear that our true motivation is about oil and our own
flailing economy; about the failure to destroy Al Qaeda and about revenge.
It is criminal to put our servicemen and women in harm's way and to put
the lives of so many civilians on the line for the misguided frustrations
of the Bush administration. "The lie that brought us into war was that Iraq was
a threat to us. Well, now it is a threat. Now it is a terrorist hotbed.
The fiction is now reality. And now we have to deal with it. It was an
attempt at a corporate takeover. This was about oil. It wasn't about human
rights. It's not about human rights." "You are a coward (George Bush) , a killer, a [perpetrator
of] genocide, an alcoholic, a drunk, a liar, an immoral person, Mr Danger.
You are the worst, Mr Danger. The worst of this planet... A psychologically
sick man, I know it." "He betrayed this country!... He played on our fears! He
took America on an ill-conceived foreign adventure dangerous to our troops,
an adventure pre-ordained and planned before 9/11 ever took place!" "You, Misters Bush and Cheney; you, Ms. Rice, are villainously
and criminally obscene people, obscene human beings, incompetent even
to fulfill your own self-serving agenda, while tragically neglectful and
destructive of ours and our country's." "Braided Scoundrel-in-Chief, George Junior, lacking
even the sense to be careful what he wished for, has teamed up with a
gaggle of fundamentalist Christian clerics like Billy Graham to proclaim
a "New Crusade" called "Infinite Justice" aimed at "ridding the world
of evil." “I HATE BUSH. I despise him and his entire administration
— not only because of its international policy, but also the national......It
makes me feel ashamed to come from the United States — it is humiliating....
Bush stole the elections and since then we have all been suffering the
consequences,” “Being a man, I’ve got to say that we’ve got this guy in
the White House who thinks he is a man, you know, who projects himself
as a man because he has a certain masculinity, and he’s a good old boy,
and he used to drink, and he knows how to shoot a gun and how to drive
a pickup truck, et cetera, like that. That’s not the definition of a man,
God dammit!” "I believe that the president's leadership in the actions
taken in Iraq demonstrate an incompetence in terms of knowledge, judgment
and experience in making the decisions that would have been necessary
to truly accomplish the mission without the deaths to our troops and the
cost to our taxpayers." “He’s [John Kerry] running against the worst President in
the history of the United States! [audience applause] And that’s not hyperbole.
That’s not hyperbole. The environment, the demonization of gays, the repression
of black voters, the favoritism of Halliburton, this unending war....We
can’t consume everybody’s life with this fear when we’ve been attacked
twice in twenty years.” "Our country is founded on a sham: our forefathers were
slave-owning rich white guys who wanted it their way. So when I see the
American flag, I go, 'Oh my God, you're insulting me.' That you can have
a gay parade on Christopher Street in New York, with naked men and women
on a float cheering, 'We're here, we're queer!' -- that's what makes my
heart swell. Not the flag, but a gay naked man or woman burning the flag.
I get choked up with pride." "Unless you are willing to accept torture as part of a normal
American political lexicon, unless you are willing to accept that leaving
the Geneva Convention is fine and dandy, if you accept the expansion of
wiretapping as business as usual, the only way to express this now is
to embrace the difficult and perhaps embarrassing process of impeachment."
"I believe that the president's leadership in the actions
taken in Iraq demonstrate an incompetence in terms of knowledge, judgment
and experience in making the decisions that would have been necessary
to truly accomplish the mission without the deaths to our troops and the
cost to our taxpayers." "George W. Bush's Ten Commandments: Thou shalt not
steal...votes. (big applause) Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's...country.
(big applause) Thou shalt not kill...for oil. (big applause) Thou shalt
not take grammar...in vain. (big applause) I mean, whatever fu--ing happened
to separation of church and state? I mean, you can't like, impose your
god on my god. God has many names. God is God, God is Jehovah, God is
Allah, God is Buddah, God is Beyonce." “I despise him [President George W. Bush]. I despise his
administration and everything they stand for....To my mind the election
was stolen by George Bush and we have been suffering ever since under
this man’s leadership....There has to be a movement now to really oppose
what he is proposing because it’s unconstitutional, it’s immoral and basically
illegal....It is an embarrassing time to be an American. It really is.
It’s humiliating.” "President Bush’s contempt for human rights and civil
liberties is unprecedented in the American Presidency. He is not only
above international law, he is above the Bill of Rights. He can arrest
and detain people worldwide, including U.S. citizens, as enemy combatants.
He condones torture. He wiretaps U.S. citizens and foreigners alike without
court approval. Proclamations concerning his Presidential powers by his
Attorneys General, Ashcroft and Gonzales, have stunned the international
community. Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo now symbolize U.S. regard for human
dignity. Yet George Bush proclaims himself the champion of freedom and
democracy!" "They told the stories at times they had personally raped,
cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human
genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly
shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan,
shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged
the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war,
and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied
bombing power of this country."
