  • I know I posted this below, but this is too funny to ignore: Bush's MtP speech in duckspeak...

  • Somehow, we still tolerate each other. Eventually this will be the only forum left.

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '><i>As a public service, we take the time here to translate the most relevant portions of the president's statements to Russert into duckspeak. Where <sup>quack</sup>s are noted in the translated text (as in "<sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup>"), they signify portions of the president's sentences that are mostly or entirely meaningless -- connectors, pronouns and verbs that offer the vague appearance of logic behind Bush's catchphrases and patriotic pap, the "mass of lies, evasion, folly" that Orwell elsewhere described as a "soft snow" covering up the facts. The catchphrases, representing the more cognitively developed portion of Bush's remarks, have been left intact.</i>

<b>Tim Russert: On Friday, you announced a committee, commission, to look into intelligence failures regarding the Iraq War and our entire intelligence community. You have been reluctant to do that for some time. Why?</b>

President Bush: <sup>Quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> winning the war against the terrorists. <sup>Quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> war against terrorists <sup>quack</sup> war <sup>quack</sup> hide in caves <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> shadowy networks <sup>quack</sup> rogue nations. <sup>Quack</sup> good intelligence system. We need really good intelligence <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> <sup>quack</sup> fighting this war on terror.

<b>[Russert, noting that the Iraq intelligence commission will not report until March 2005] Shouldn't the American people have the benefit of the commission before the election?</b>

<sup>Quack</sup> gave it time <sup>quack</sup> didn't want it to be hurried <sup>quack</sup> strategic look <sup>quack</sup> big picture <sup>quack</sup> war on terror <sup>quack</sup> dangerous world <sup>quack</sup> dangerous world <sup>quack</sup> war president <sup>quack</sup> war on my mind <sup>quack</sup> I see dangers.

<b>The night you took the country to war, March 17th, you said this: "Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised ... How do you respond to critics who say that you brought the nation to war under false pretenses?</b>

<sup>Quack</sup> weapons <sup>quack</sup> war against terror <sup>quack</sup> we were attacked <sup>quack</sup> every threat <sup>quack</sup> every threat <sup>quack</sup> every potential harm to America <sup>quack</sup> war on terror <sup>quack</sup> weapons <sup>quack</sup> suicide bombers <sup>quack</sup> funding terrorist groups <sup>quack</sup> dangerous man <sup>quack</sup> stockpiles of weapons <sup>quack</sup> capacity to produce weapons <sup>quack</sup> weapons <sup>quack</sup> capacity to make weapons <sup>quack</sup> Saddam Hussein <sup>quack</sup> dangerous with weapons <sup>quack</sup> Saddam Hussein <sup>quack</sup> dangerous with the ability to make weapons <sup>quack</sup> dangerous man <sup>quack</sup> dangerous <sup>quack</sup> a madman <sup>quack</sup> imminent <sup>quack</sup> imminent <sup>quack</sup> new kind of war <sup>quack</sup> no doubt in my mind <sup>quack</sup> Saddam Hussein <sup>quack</sup> danger to America.

<b>In what way?</b>

<sup>Quack</sup> have a weapon, make a weapon <sup>quack</sup> he had weapons <sup>quack</sup> he had weapons <sup>quack</sup> make a weapon <sup>quack</sup> weapon <sup>quack</sup> shadowy terrorist network <sup>quack</sup> Oval Office <sup>quack</sup> terrorists with airplanes <sup>quack</sup> harm America <sup>quack</sup> worst nightmare scenario <sup>quack</sup> terrorist networks <sup>quack</sup> deadly weapons <sup>quack</sup> strike us <sup>quack</sup> president of the United States' most solemn responsibility <sup>quack</sup> country secure <sup>quack</sup> Saddam Hussein <sup>quack</sup> Saddam Hussein <sup>quack</sup> madman.

<b>Now looking back, in your mind, is it worth the loss of 530 American lives and 3,000 injuries and woundings simply to remove Saddam Hussein, even though there were no weapons of mass destruction?</b>

<sup>Quack</sup> life is precious <sup>quack</sup> sacrifice for this country <sup>quack</sup> our praise <sup>quack</sup>.

<b>But --</b>

Let me finish <sup>quack</sup> explain <sup>quack</sup> parents of those who lost their lives <sup>quack</sup> Saddam Hussein <sup>quack</sup> dangerous <sup>quack</sup> a madman <sup>quack</sup> a dangerous man <sup>quack</sup> make weapons <sup>quack</sup> soldiers who have fallen <sup>quack</sup> war against these terrorists <sup>quack</sup> great harm to America <sup>quack</sup> these young ones <sup>quack</sup> sacrifice <sup>quack</sup> free Iraq <sup>quack</sup> change the world <sup>quack</sup> historic times <sup>quack</sup> free Iraq <sup>quack</sup> children in our own country <sup>quack</sup> safer world <sup>quack</sup> hatred and violence <sup>quack</sup> enemy <sup>quack</sup> recruit its killers <sup>quack</sup> America <sup>quack</sup> responsibility <sup>quack</sup> responsibility <sup>quack</sup> responsibility <sup>quack</sup> responsibility <sup>quack</sup> freedom <sup>quack</sup> barbaric people <sup>quack</sup> Saddam Hussein <sup>quack</sup> mass graves <sup>quack</sup> responsibility.</div>
