Slate: Bush lays an egg at the U.N.
- Thread starter Insane3D
- Start date
What else could Bush do? Say I made a mistake right before the elections. Thanks to his policies he is in a lifeboat and bailing water. Unfortunately for us, his policies in Iraq has put the country in that same lifeboat. We cant get out because of the damage it would do to our security so we all just going to have start bailing water and hope we can change the captain soon.

Well first off it starts with: "Has an American president ever delivered such a bafflingly impertinent speech before the General Assembly as the one George W. Bush gave this morning?"
I can't imagine why it would be dissed 😛

Is it wrong? It rings true to me and seems fairly consistent with the opinions I've read and heard. We need the U.N.'s help, so Bush goes in and throws gas on the fire. There's a great strategy.Originally posted by: CADkindaGUY

Next time he should try reading the article before dismissing it. People only reinforce their ignorance and bigotry when they insulate themselves from anything they might disagree with. They become much better informed and when they open their minds. That's one of Bush's great flaws -- he has zero tolerance for dissenting ideas. It leads him to make stupid decisions.

"Lays an egg" is a phrase which passes a judgement on his speech and pretty much let's you know from which perspective this writer is coming.

Never said it was either...it's an op-ed.

Splendid. Then it's obviously not "news"...I guess it's "politics" then? Shall I post transcripts form the Rush Limbaugh show here every day?

Perhaps the article was meant to "judge" the speach?

Based on what? The results? We haven't seen them yet and, in reality, the true results are immeasurable...which is why I think it's unfair and unbalanced to be drawing conclusions at this point.

If the results are not yet seen, then they truely are immeasurable. Well, unmeasurable at least.
Tell me, in a constructive sense, do you think Bushes address increased or diminished his chances of achieving his stated goal for increased international support for his position? Specifically, how so? What skill of diplomacy was used in addressing concerns about unilateral pre emptive military campaigns? His speech certainly was not formulated to illicit support from the UN. If your answer is that no matter what Bush said, he wasnt going to get support, then why was he there? Not to get help in that case. What audience was he playing to then?
I pose serious questions to you, in a direct but not hostile manner, because I really want to understand what you think of the speech in this context.
