Bush thinks he was "Extraordinary" with Katrina
Edited on Tue Sep-13-05 11:25 AM by Julius Civitatus
Delusional. Egocentric. Narcissistic.

I'm truly speechless. His hubris is truly blinding!

You can see the video here:

President Bush was very happy with himself today as he told reporters that he had pre-signed emergency declarations in anticipation of the big storm coming.

Bush: "Which is by the way, extraordinary."

5. he's a legend in his own mind. I hope he keeps himself out there
yapping so we can get all his crap on video/audio. Plus the msm channels seem to be stepping up now and actually reporting - give them some good stuff, george

6. There... now what was all this about him accepting responsibility?
Jesus. To think some people actually took him seriously.

7. Notice mayor Nagin rolling his eyes and sneering as Bush spews his BS
Edited on Tue Sep-13-05 11:20 AM by Julius Civitatus
It's hilarious...

First Bush says... "I knew the big storm was comin' on Mondee.. Mondee mornin'... and I told the nation on Mondee mornin', hey there's a big storm a'comin'..."

Nagin does a major eye-rolling!

Then Bush flat out says his response to the catastrophe was "extraordinary."

Nagin sneers in disgust!

:rofl:

It's quite a Daily Show moment.

PS: for any Daily Show writers out there, take note. Hint, hint!

9. The same aides mentioned in the...
...Newsweek article who were afraid of telling Bush how bad the situation really was, are probably telling him right now that he is doing one hell of an extraordinary job and that his approval ratings have gone off the charts....they are at 110%!

His cockiness and hubris has to be based on pure ignorance.

10. What a fucking DOOFUS!
It sickens me to think that a decent percentage of the American people find that Hee-Haw act endearing!

What a spew-inducing joke he is!

People need to see this clown telling America, in national television, that night is day, and black is white.

12. Clinton did it on a regular basis.

Clinton pre-signed Emergency Orders on a regular basis before big storms in the 90's.

I guess what was expected out of President in the 90's is extraordinary in the 00's.
