"let me finish". gwb says this during press conference (F9/11 extra)
Michael Moore has added a "press conference" that gwb held after he and cheney "visited" with the 9/11 comission, to the the F9/11 DVD. There are a lot of funny/scary moments, however, the "let me finish" line popped up again. This was during gwb's opening statement, and seemed to come out of nowhere. Anyone else see this? WTF? MKJ

5. Sorry about the delayed response...
I saw this when I watched the DVD last night. The press conference is one of the extras included on the DVD. MKJ

2. I saw it, and I remembered it.

I think it was during Bush*'s Rose Garden "Press Conference," the much-touted, long-awaited one that everyone watched, yet in which Bush* never actually answered a single question.

On Edit: I can't find the transcript on the White House website.

3. Here's a "let me finish" from chimpy
WASHINGTON, July 30 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Following is a transcript of remarks by President Bush in a White House press conference today:

The Rose Garden

10:33 A.M. EDT

<SNIP>

And so, this is going to take time. And the world will see what I mean when I say, a free Iraq will help peace in the Middle East, and a free Iraq will be important for changing the attitudes of the people in the Middle East. A free Iraq will show what is possible in a world that needs freedom, in a part of the world that needs freedom.

Let me finish for a minute, John, please. Just getting warmed up. I'm kind of finding my feet. (Laughter.)

<SNIP>

4. Finding his feet?
They haven't left his mouth since before he took office.

6. I have come to realize that when he says, "let me finish"...
is when the talking out of his ass will begin. It's usually after that point that he begins to get panicky, or gets angry or just plain starts making shit up. Or classically, mispronounces words.
He is a self absorbed bullshit artist that feels, just because he is prez, that anything he says is earth fucking shaking. The problem with any abusive alcoholic, is a sense of entitlement. They feel they must be heard. They must not be wrong so as to expose the drunk that they are.
