He has stated a dictatorship would be a lot easier to have ones programs implemented. Do you disagree with that? The only time he said he would like to be the dictator it was clearly labeled as a joke. Doesn't fit with what your point was but that's never stopped you in the past.

George W. Bush has stated he'd prefer to be a dictator at least three times If you're relying on the quotes you provided as your evidence, you're a liar or a fool. First, however, a dictatorship is not the same as Nazism, so you didn't even answer my question. But as to the quotes you provided: 1. In your first and third quotes, Bush stated a truism, that nobody can dispute. A dictatorship would be easier. He wasn't advocating it, nor did he "state[d] he'd prefer to be a dictator..." 2. In the second quote, what is it about the words, "Bush joked," that you don't understand?

Orca, what a reach. You are losing credibility bud with that post.

"A dictatorship would be a heck of a lot easier, there's no question about it" Now that's an interesting quote. What's interesting is these are the hits google gets on it: google.com Where's Business Week? We've got "conspiracyplanet" and cafeprogressive and other respectable sites like that. Here's Business Week: businessweek.com It's got it's own search engine. Put that phrase in there and you get no hits. Put "July 30, 2001" in and you get the table of contents for that issue. SO the online edition goes back that far. Care to explain this?

EW! DID I FIND A QUOTE FOR YOU! A number of them, in fact. "In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by the tax-paying citizens of this great country. Gore's territory encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off government welfare . . ." Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota Population of counties won by: Gore = 127 million Bush = 143 million Square miles of land won by: Gore = 580,000 Bush = 2,2427,000 States won by: Gore = 19 Bush = 29 Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Gore = 13.2 Bush = 2.1 snopes.com
