Who noticed that bush was sniffing during the entire interview
Edited on Mon May-19-08 09:59 PM by Maraya1969
with (fill in the name please I can't remember)? It was on Olbermann tonight.

Unless he was having bad allergies that kind of sniffing is from chronic cocaine abuse.

1. I did - first thought was "coke nose"
He was acting very defensive/agressive also. I knew someone who used to act like that a couple hours after coming down off a coke high.

Just sayin'.

2. the fake body language expert on countdown the other night...
....called that "bullsnorting" --- FWIW.

It's hostile, whatever it's called.

3. yeah--just like O'Reilly!
He was bullsnorting. I think that's actually called a micro-gesture and it belies the speaker's emotional status, despite what he might want to project.

Did anyone notice how proud bush was of himself when he told the interviewer, "I don't buy your premise." I was sitting at the dinner table and began laughing. What an intellectual accomplishment for bush--he found a premise he can't buy into.

:applause:


Applause applause for bushie. He's come a long way from his Pet Goat days.

4. I doubt he's been using..
the Middle East is extremely dry, and can cause nasal irritation very easy. This would cause a runny nose or just itchiness, both of which trigger sniffing. Come on guys, George is a dumbass for sure, but we don't need to be going around accusing Presidents of doing coke.

5. Well, it's a well-known fact that he used cocaine years ago.
I think it stands to reason he might still snort a little from time to time.

6. Not really.
I know people who have done coke in the past but won't touch the stuff now.

I've said this before and I'll say it again: There are lots of things that are 100% undeniable facts that we could talk shit about Bush for. Picking something that is speculation at best makes you look like an idiot.

7. He's admitted doing it in the past
and even if he doesn't do it anymore, it still fucks up your sinuses - which makes dry weather or allergies hit you harder. The coke was my first thought, though I don't think he uses it now. I just think he's a vicious fuckwit.

Khash.

8. That I'm fine with.
I'm responding specifically to that person's comment that he probably still uses it from time to time.

9. Well, maybe he doesn't but I'm just saying it's not entirely
crazy to think he might still once in awhile.

He used to be an alcoholic, and I'm pretty certain that he still hits the sauce occasionally (based on behaviors I've observed).

11. But it's still just speculation...
So I think it'd be more productive to criticize him for things that aren't just speculation.

10. bu$h prides himself on leaving stinky farts,
so, he might just be sniffing them to see if they are rank enough to clear out a room!

12. Oh my god...
I thought I was imagining things, then my husband said "I thought he gave up blow when he got god" (in his usual sneering way of speaking about shrub)...

Glad it wasn't our imagination!
