"..Conduct unbefitting a presidential candidate"

[SoCalDem]

Bush has said this about Kerry's truthful outburst .. We need to assemble some of the "unbefitting-est"</bush> stuff that Bush has done..

Someone needs to do a flash or shockwave about this, and send it far & wide.. This is the kind of immediate response that the internet can do..


I'll start..

The "That guy's a world-class asshole" comment.. He was a candidate and said this and was agreed with, by his running mate..slippery-dick

Then there is the time he's walking across the white house lawn and spits..while cameras are running and people watching..

Then there is the time, he grabbed the shawl of maria Pope on the Letterman show, so he could clean his glasses with HER clothing..

There is his penchant for "innapropriate" touching of other people's heads.. He does this all the time.

When we have a bunch collected, we can search for video or pics, and maybe someone will make the clip..

They should be sent to all media..They seem to be only interested in that "bad bad bad Kerry" for not apologizing..

Why apologize for the truth..??

stealing $9.5 million in taxpayer money for sham-Medicare ads which are actually campaign commercials with actors shown in soft-focus lighting and the slogan "Medicare: It's Not Different, It's Just More."

4. Comment to Al Hunt

What about the time he called Al Hunt from the Wall Street Journal a f**king son-of-a-bitch in front of his four year old daughter? Not exactly Mr. Family Values.

[11 Bravo]

19. First I've heard of this.

Do you have a link or any way to reference the event? I would like to include it in a letter to the editor I'm working on.

[SoCalDem]

25. Here's a link

http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:EzvueNHpiwsJ:www.bushisms.com/index1a.html+al+hunt+george+bush&hl=en&ie=UTF-8


"You fucking son of a bitch. I saw what you wrote. We're not going to forget this." (TYPICAL OF RIGHT WING, MAFIA OR KKK!)
-George W. Bush to writer and editor Al Hunt, 1988 (very presidential !)

[Poiuyt]

43. Check this site:

http://www.dissidentvoice.org/Articles5/Hamilton_Bush-7Sins.htm

"In 1987, one year after he had given up drinking he ran into Al Hunt, a Wall Street Journal editor who was minding his own business sitting at a restaurant with his wife and 4-year-old daughter.

Bush lit into him, saying, among other things, "You no-good fucking son of a bitch, I will never fucking forget what you wrote." (8) (Hunt had predicted that the 1988 Republican ticket would be Jack Kemp and Richard Lugar, instead of George Bush Sr and Dan Quayle.) What's interesting is that the Wall St Journal editor later commented that Bush was well "lubricated." (9)"


It's also quoted in the book, "Fortunate Son."

5. Are they offering any evidence they are not lying crooks?

or are they just throwing a tantrum cuz they have no evidence to use in that endevour?

Hammer them and keep hammering them. It is what they have been doing to the citizens.

[SoCalDem]

9. exactly..

misunderstood
mis-stated
misunderestimated
fudged
exaggerrated
stretched
embellished
sexed-up
expanded
etc



what do all these words have in common.. they are all euphemisms for LIES......


For the "dirty" part.. see Bush v McCain.. the "RATS" campaign...The promises to expand "any issue" at a publicized speech, and then afterwards CUTTING of the same issue's funding..

and so many more.

[LEW]

6. Ok ok I admit it

I threw the tv across the room when I heard the "quote". How hypocritical, and totally typical of shrub.:headbang:

[jbfam4]

7. What a bunch of hypocrites

How about Bush using the F word when talking about going to war. Don't know the exact quote.

[Richardo]

11. Paraphrase: "F*ck Saddam - we're taking him out."

I wanna say March of 2002.

[catzies]

14. I do. It was in Newsweek, IIRC when they said there were no war plans

But Shrubby walked into a meeting and said, "F*** Saddam, we're taking him out."

[Qutzupalotl]

41. F*** Bush, we're voting him out!

:bounce:

[MetaTrope]

8. What did the Bush 2000 campaign have to say about McCain?

Can somebody refresh my memory?

[heidiho]

10. When They Ran The Clip Today on "The View"

The audience cheered and clapped!

Woo hoo - they liked it! I LOVED IT.

[RoundRockD]

13. The View

Did you hear the bald guy say that there would only be one reasonable guy on a Kerry/McCain ticket? He said McCain would be the only reasonable one. What an idiot.

[SoCalDem]

12. The "Trifecta joke" at the expense of thousands of dead

WTC victims.

That's the vilest of them all..

The fact that he made FUNDRAISING speeches and laughed about it, disgusts me :grr:

New Yorkers should NEVER forgive him for that

[July]

22. the trifecta joke has made me ill since day one

and it took a while before anyone even took note of it.

We can already point out countless lies.

And how about the crooks? Several Iran-Contra crooks in this administration, right? I mean actually convicted (and conveniently pardoned by Bush Daddy). How about our man in Baghdad, Chalabi?

It's too easy to answer their whining.

[kath]

35. Dems *definitely* need to run ads showing the "Trifecta" comment

It still amazes me that he had the gall to make that so-called "joke" over and over and over.

What a total ^*#!ing asshole.

[IrateCitizen]

15. Just revisit the McCain rumors in 2000....

That was gutter politics at its absolute worst.

[barbaraann]

16. Bush's 40th Birthday

He went out of state with a bunch of buddies to a hotel, woke up the next morning after getting drunk and then decided to "reform."

Now, I have known a number of degenerate people in my life but I have never known any man who would do anything like this. What kinds of entertainment do you suppose these men had? I am still amazed at this "Birthday Party."

[grannylib]

17. Didn't he state in an interview that he and his dad talk about 'pussy'

when they get together?
And if he values family and marriage so much, where was he during the wedding of his brother Neil last weekend?
Could it be he wanted to distance himself from the scandal-prone bro??

On edit: I thought for just one minute about Googling 'bush' and 'pussy' then realized that would be HOPELESS *lmao*

[CPschem]

21. hahaa... it's true

when asked in an interview what he and his dad usually talk about, he responded "pussy."
He is a lying pussy.

[SoCalDem]

27. That's pretty disgusting. talking about your wifes privates to your Dad

or even worse.. what if it was NOT Laura's privates he was referring to:eyes:

[seabeyond]

30. lol lol i made the same funny

but i did research george w bush saying pussy adn i got a lot of hits. went thru a couple and then lost interest in finding.

this one, i want to say to my repug friends that are oh so moral, why that doesnt sicken them. supposedly in 1988 at a dinner and reporter asked? but i didnt find.

told someone, imagine a husband saying that to the world and then sitting at the dinner table looking in his wife's eyes and his two daughter about 8 at the time.

a huge eeeeew for me

[dweller]

18. not sure if it's 'conduct unbefitting'

but it's relevent on the *moron's stupidity...

[Beetwasher]

26. "Who Cares What You Think" "Bring it On"

n/t

[wryter2000]

28. What I find funny

What I find funny is that Kerry didn't refer to anyone specifically, so why is Bush assuming Kerry was referring to him? Did he see himself in that description?

[SoCalDem]

29. Bush Knows he's a liar.. he just tries to pretend he's mad

:)

[SpaceCatMeetsMars]

31. He was seen on the satellite TV pumping his fist and saying

"Feel good" right before he went on to announce the Iraq attack. Newpaper reporters reported it too. Unbecoming, undignified and everything else! The president is supposed to use war as a last resort and act with dignity and responsibility and seriousness, not like it's a sport and he's getting a thrill.

Also, "Bring 'em on." Like the troops are his little pawns to use for bait.

[SpaceCatMeetsMars]

37. Wait, forgot the biggest one of all - the aircraft carrier - breaking

250 years of precedent by dressing himself up in a military costume, like despicable dictators do. Eisenhower wouldn't do it, Kennedy wouldn't do it, his father wouldn't do it (except he did wear a shirt with epaulets at the Gulf War parade), but HE will!

Also, what about at the Olympics when he made a mean, cold face like Hitler at the '36 Olympics when the Iraqis went by. Then he sat with some 15 year old female athlete and leaves her saying, "Excuse me I've got a war to fight!" Ewwwwww!

[Bandit]

32. Don't forget Bush* autographing an American Flag ~ Defacing I should say

:shrug: So many to choose from.

[NoPasaran]

33. What? Did Kerry piss on the Constitution?

No, I guess that would Bush.

[Deb]

34. How about calling Putin "Pootie Poot"

Spitting out his gum before signing the nuclear missle treaty. (a clip of this is on the web)

Drinking water from the bottle instead of a glass at a formal function.

"We both use Colgate toothpaste." (Tony Blair)

"Do you have Blacks too?" (to Brazilian President)

Telling a reporter he has a "Face for radio."

Calling Pakistanis "Pakis"

Calling the fight on terror a "Crusade"

"yellowcake"

"Let them eat cake." (OK, I made that one up)

[SoCalDem]

36. When he pounced on David Gregory for speaking french

and I think he said something to the effect that the french did not understand entrepreneurship.. :) (I guess he thought that word was "Texican")

[central scrutinizer]

39. "2001 was a wonderful year for Laura and me"

don't have a link. I am sure a lot of New Yorkers can't say that.

[seabeyond]

45. oooooosh as he says how it affected him

and the nation why he gets to politicize,........that one would be a wonderful to what he said then adn what he says now. wow

[oldcoot]

38. "Pretty Face"

Remember that comment Bush made about Scott Reid in Canada? Under certain circumstances, Bush's comments might be considered sexual harassment. Here is the link: http://www.globeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20040116.wreid0116/BNStory/Front/ .

[NewJeffCT]

40. To president of Brazil - "do you have any black people in your country?"

That was embarrassing...

[myopic4141]

42. Telling the truth is undignified and unPresidential.

If one were to follow Shrubby's logic, then lying to the public as a President is more Presidential than telling the truth as a Presidential candidate.

[hippiegranny]

44. how about getting caught picking his nose

on film at a sporting event?

[dansolo]

46. Didn't Bush Sr. call Al Gore "ozone man"?

I remember near the end of the 1992 campaign, Bush Sr. had some rather unflattering comments about Governor Clinton and Senator Gore. I always felt at that time that his comments were very disrespectful.

[Terran]

47. The comment he made to the Candian PM's press secretary...

about him having a "pretty mouth"! (or was it just that he was "pretty"? I forget). Really, George shouldn't cruise so blatantly in public, it lacks class.

[SpaceCatMeetsMars]

48. No, a pretty face, he said

"Pretty mouth" is from the movie "Deliverance" !

[AngryAmish]

49. Never apologize to that filth.

It is the truth. Disgusting. They make me sick.
