Dana Perino: Bush will not attack Obama @ RNC because "he's got class"

[sabra]

<snip>

The speech rallies Republicans to have confidence in America's future and to do everything they can to elect John McCain to the presidency.

A couple of things that the speech does not do: Do not expect this speech to define the President's legacy. This is not an opportunity to recap accomplishments of the past seven and a half years. It will not serve as a farewell to the American people, and it certainly will not attack Barack Obama.

Q Why not? I mean, this week --

MS. PERINO: Because he's got class.

:rofl:

[Bluebear]

1. Yeah. Low.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

2. Did she say crabs? n/t

[TheDebbieDee]

3. ****snicker****

Puh-leeeeeeze!

[bdamomma]

4. ....................

he's got class up his a$$!!!!!

oh Dana give it a rest.

[Dissent Is Patriotic]

5. If you missed this press conference...it's a shame...

you had to see the way she said it...she said it so defensively. What a tool she is.

[rosesaylavee]

6. So now he does.

Where's he been hiding it for the past 4 decades?

[Stellabella]

7. Huh?

"This is not an opportunity to recap accomplishments of the past seven and a half years."

Well, it should be. For any other administration, it would be. But there ARE no accomplishments of the past seven and a half years, unless you count destroying the country and making the world a worse place. On the issues, the Repukes lose every single time.

WTF is he going to talk about? Terra, POW, 9/11, terra??

[angstlessk]

8. noooo....an unpopular president attacking a popular candidate..just saying

he would just be hated even more if that is possible?

[Norwood]

They don't even try to make their lies believable anymore

:rofl:

[Z_I_Peevey]

9. Bush? Class? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

22. He has about as

much class as a toilet seat!

[eyesroll]

10. Doesn't this imply that anyone who attacks Obama at the RNC then has no class?

:shrug:

[cliss]

11. Actually, the real reason is

Bush needs to be kept hidden as much as possible.

Has anyone noticed? Bush doesn't attend fund-raisers, he's never out campaigning with McOld, the White House is completely silent on the election.

There's a reason for that.

[Solly Mack]

12. LMAO I got a question for Perino

[Supersedeas]

18. whatever she's on, it smells

[Mandate My Ass]

13. It's about time that dumbass went back to school....

we all know his degree from Yale isn't worth the paper it's printed on! I sure hope whichever "class" he's taking, it helps him with his speechifying. Remedial English? ESL? :rofl:

[gratuitous]

14. Bush may not attack Obama

After all, when you see someone wallop the living shit out of your buddy outside the bar, I don't care how drunk you are: You have second thoughts about wading into the fray against a human buzzsaw. The way Obama sliced and diced McCain showed Bush that this wasn't some walkover like it was against Gore or Kerry. Obama's a motherfucker who will fuck your shit all the way up.

Bush may be a congenital slack-jawed idiot of a man, but he's not totally stupid. Obama opened the giant economy-sized can of whoop-ass last night, and Bush doesn't want any part of that.

15. "Because he's got class" deserves a DUzy all by itself.

[SeattleGirl]

16. ........

:rofl:

[fizzgig]

17. i damn near choked when i read this subject line

is today opposite day?

[Proud Liberal Dem]

19. Is he still here?

*yawn*
:nopity:

[renegade000]

20. Exactly Bush waits until he is in front of foreign legislative bodies....

That's the classy thing to do.

:eyes:

[harun]

21. Wow, Bush is going to speak at the Republican Convention?

[The Gunslinger]

The same guy that says "Democrat Party " all the time???

[Rob H.]

23. Class?

Mr. "Hey, c'mere, Chancellor Merkel, an' lemme rub them shoulders"? Mr. "How d'ya like yer new nickname, Pootie-Poot"?

:rofl:

[trof]

24. Oh yeah. He's classy alright. I remember when

He pretended to search the oval office for WMDs at the correspondents' dinner.
That was just loaded with class.
People on both sides dying over in Iraq and he's doing schtick about it.
Yeah.
Real class.
George Bush wouldn't recognize class if it kicked him in the nuts.
But it would be a nice experiment.
