How will Bush embarrass us on his Asian trip?
Edited on Tue Nov-15-05 12:17 AM by Hissyspit
In light of his ridiculous trip to South America ("We do not torture." "Brazil is so big!"), what will Bush do in Asia to embarrass us a country?

I'll start:

- He will vomit on a prime minister.
- He will talk about the "Orient."
- He will chew the Japanese out for inventing bird flu.
- He'll talk about how much he loved Mickey Rooney's characterization of the Asian neighbor in "Breakfast at Tiffany's"
- He'll go on his Asian trip.

Any other predictions?

12. Or maybe he'll say "chinks" or "chinamen"
like when he referred to the Pakistanis as "Pakis."

Dumbass.

5. He'll do the Alec Guinness UCRA joke...
"Ah, so. You are surprised I speak your ranguage. You see, I was educated in your country. At UCRA!"

Old movie, with Sir Alec as a Japanese spy. Wartime propaganda.

9. Tell a few Charlie Chan jokes, when corrected about the supposed origins
Edited on Tue Nov-15-05 12:16 AM by MADem
of the character, say "hell, it's all the same--close enough!"

Make remarks about bait on a plate if served sushi.

Swagger more than usual around anyone shorter than him.

Refuse to do the ceremonial bowing thing.

Insist his motorcade drive on the right side of the road (it's LEFT over there!).

Assume they adore him because they are so damned polite over there!

On edit--and that is just the JAPAN stop!!!

10. I am gambling on the following
He visits the Yasukuni Shrine and speechifies about the great sacrifices made by the soldiers interred there in furthering democracy during WW2

Demands an audience with King Ghidorah

Pinches Princess Sayako's bottom and asks if she will "love him long time"

Swaps all his Rs for Ls in conversation "Herro, is Preasure to meet you arr"

Repeatedly screams "Godzilla!" and points at the sky

11. "Hey, you people have blacks here, too?"
He'll have to find some for his "blackdrop" at his speech.

17. oh lord I was just thinking that
when I first heard that I didn't even laugh. I was actually embarassed for him. That reflects so poorly on our country. Most of the world thinks we're all a bunch of dumb rubes. :)

18. 1) Display COMPLETE AND UTTER IGNORANCE about a whole continent of people.
2) When corrected about said ignorance, he will display total nonchalance and indifference to the fact that he just embarassed himself in front of half the world's population. (And it's a helluva lot more than 3 Brazilian people, lemme tell ya.)

3) And for a specific prediction, he will go to a site like the Hiroshima memorial, the DMZ in Korea, or Tiennenman Square (in short, a site with a complex and challenging history), and manage to totally appall everyone from BOTH SIDES in the conflict.

19. He won't barf since he has to outdo his daddy
He may defecate on the Prime Minister (that poor man).

I suspect just a coterie of idiotic remarks and knuckle-dragging mistakes will suffice. So I'll go with --

>He'll go on his Asian trip.

He may have that knee-slapping Jerry Lewis "Oriental" impression to wow them with, though.

Oh, god, can't we lock him in the Oval Office for three more years? He'll be safe. Everything is probably soft and round, and all his toys are there. He doesn't HAVE to "go to China", does he?

24. This is always the first that comes to mind:
- He will vomit on a prime minister.

But with a twist, I hope he vomits on stupid laura.

One time monkeyboy went to South East Asia he had his pal the rat food tester with him.
