Anyone have mp3 or video of Bush looking for WMDs under furniture, etc?
Looking for audio or video of Bush's BAD humor at the 60th annual dinner of the Radio and Television Correspondents' Association where he had stills of himself looking under furniture for WMD, etc

Anyone got a link that works? Getting harder to find things on the web, even last week's news goes down the memory hole :)

Appreciate a link if you have it handy, and thanks in advance,

symbolman

1. Yikes, I think I have that video on a hard drive that isn't
Edited on Tue Jul-12-05 08:52 PM by karlrschneider
installed in a puter at the moment. I'll have to dig through and try to locate it.

edit: Now that I think more, it might be on a VCR tape. Will take a while. Meanwhile, this link might give you something, I'm stuck with dialup and can't really get to the videos, you might check it out:

7. Looks like it's
mostly Amy Goodman here..

I'm trying to find the whole episode, at least the section where Bush was cracking the WMD jokes, maybe even the stills he used during it, etc..

The BBC one is okay, but they all explain what happened, I need bush's soundtrack for a DVD I'm working on..

But I thank you all :)

If you see just the clip of him looking please PM me or post it, thanks!

Bush's Iraq WMDs joke backfires


The video is linked inside the bbc link, on the right hand side of the page...
Title:
The BBC's Lynne Morrall
"It was meant to be a humorous look at life in the White House"
He gives a speech and shows the slides.


...
One pictured Mr Bush looking under a piece of furniture in the Oval Office, at which the president remarked: "Those weapons of mass destruction have got to be here somewhere."

After another one, showing him scouring the corner of a room, Mr Bush said: "No, no weapons over there," he said.

And as a third picture, this time showing him leaning over, appeared on the screen the president was heard to say: "Maybe under here?"
...

9. I thought CNN starting making Premiums available for free 2 weeks ago.
I found other clips of it on the web, but they were already cut for editorial comment. This is the only one I found that was original. I'll keep looking if the premium doesn't work.

6. Also, to put that into context ...

Remember that was at the correspondents annual dinner banquet.

Also remember, that one of the recent media talking points on the DSM was 'thats old, everyone knew Bush was lying about the WMD's'

So they all knew? ... Okay.

Then there they are with the man who just lied us into war, and he is joking about not finding the WMD's and all the MSM in the audience are yukking it up.. they think its just hilarious.

They are scum.

Go get'em Symbolman!

8. Yep
I was there at the Hearing when Cindy Sheehan and McGovern were talking about how freaking "funny" that was --

Sick bastards, I want to add it to my DVD and talk about how Bush was going to bring Honor and Dignity back to the White House, while he's bunking with a TRAITOR.

Anyone can help me find the clip, it's appreciated, the bigger the image the better..

They are SCUM alright, on the bottom of the shower curtain of life :)

And I WILL "get 'em", working on that right now :)

(disclaimer to FBI or GONZALES THE IMPALER: this is a rhetorical "get 'em" as in Expose them to the public as liars and traitors - in no way would I ever cause or want to cause harm to anyone, including a public figure -- but as Hunter Thompson once said about Nixxon when his editor at the ROlling Stone said you cannot threaten these people, but you can write what you wished could happen - Hunter responded with, "I'd like to see Nixxon's intestines wrapped around a phone booth..")

11. Here's the free video on MSN
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4596717/

Launch the video - there's a couple of short ads before they show the "Comedian in Chief" (wretch).
