1. Great question, pathetic answer.
Edited on Tue Mar-21-06 10:17 AM by autorank
Of course, he had no answer so he just babbled and went off course.

I'm sick of watching this person lie, accuse others of what he does, and represent me as president.

It's becoming less and less tolerable. He has to go.

4. She tried to follow up.
But when you're stonewalled with "Lemme finish, lemme finish" what can you do?

Besides, there are other reporters who should be supporting her.

7. He was exposed
as out of touch with the reality in Iraq. He is looking very weak.

8. Bush sounds angry
He can't get thru his thick skull that Amercians are tired of this war in Iraq.

11. GWB's staff?
Why would they allow their mental midget to be asked a direct question from Helen Thomas, anyway?

Is he trying to perform Nixon's "Operation Candor", Part Deux?

I'm all for GWB being asked direct unscripted questions, for the sake of our quaint 'lil democracy and all that, but GWB speaking extemporaneously always exposes just how pathetic and evil and stupid this moran really is. Do they expect this to actually help him? Most of us don't like to have a leader that is so imbecilic.

10. everythingchangedon911 - Even the Constitution
The Preznit's job is to protect us even if it means illegal, immoral preemptive wars of aggression, spying on citizens, torturing people who are arrested and held without process. The congress is a focus group, and we are all the Emperor's subjects.

Impeach.
