President Bush Press Conference on NOW -->

[Dr. Jones]

Local stations also carrying it via Special Report

[Dr. Jones]

1. Tune in now!

Goes RIGHT INTO talking about Iraq and says "Encouraging things happening" that is not on the evening news....

[Roland99]

2. Tuh-LAH-fer? Is like Falafel?

[Dr. Jones]

4. Ha! That's funny.

Oh by the way, "We're makin' progressss..."

[Lasher]

Did anyone listen to Washington Journal just now?

Addison Wiggin wrote a book about our economy and its debt, but told 2 callers he didn't know what impact it would have if the Social Security taxable income ceiling were eliminated. I know, the 2048 shortfall would be 93% solved. Grrr, he made me mad. He is obviously a proponent of defaulting on what the general fund owes to the Trust Funds.

I tried unsuccessfully to call in to the show. Kept getting a busy.

[Roland99]

3. "There's going to be more tough fighting ahead."

"Yet we're making progress and that's important for the American people to understand. We're making progress....We're making progress"


3 Times!

[babylonsister]

5. His words ring so hollow; how can anyone believe him?nt

[helderheid]

8. just the morans do at this point - 30% are too stoopid to save.

[Dr. Jones]

10. He's reading off a damn script! The same damn script!

It's like he's NOT EVEN TRYING ANYMORE! Same old shit!!

Oh great, now the damn economy is strong thing!
:puke:

[Roland99]

"Iraqi leaders are making progress"

"Iraq's leaders understand the importance of national unity."

[OKNancy]

6. Time to change channels to the Home and Garden Network

I'd like to keep my breakfast down.

[napi21]

78. I switched to the Food Network when idiot son came on my TV!

I'll get my info on Shrub's comedy routine and any accidental good things he might say right here on DU!

[fed-up]

7. We're making progress because our troops show courage & are making

sacrifices?????

Death is progress???

[Bonobo]

9. He's coked up! Very jumpy, fast, jittery. Defensive as hell.

Practically barking.

[Dr. Jones]

12. This is an apt description.

n/t

[Dr. Jones]

19. Can anyone say...

SCRIPTED!! It's the SAME DAMN SHIT!

[Dr. Jones]

25. Defensive; Uppity; Talking Fast

Coke or meth, take your pick!

[Dr. Jones]

28. "I see progress"

Defensive as HELL, and MAD AS HELL! He's BARKING and raising his voice!

[goclark]

50. Is the jaw moving like yesterday?

Yesterday, or the day before, he was turning the pages in his script book.

He flipped one page so quick and so hard, it was easy to see he was drunk.

He had that "I don't care" look in his eyes.

He is such a hateful, mean drunk.

[Panda1]

54. He sure is...intense and angry

Doesn't like having to do this scripted shit at all.
Somebody must have told him to do it...omg he is insulting Helen Thomas..."Brilliant performance at the gridirion."
Helen:..your decision to go to iraq has caused....deaths...reasons have turned out not to be true...why did you want to go to war...what was your real reason...

Lieboy: To assume I wanted to go to war is just flat wrong...

[goclark]

Lieboy! - ROTFL

What a lovely name for him.

Need a photoshop with a long nose etc.

[Bonobo]

42. A very, very sick man...

Uh oh, Helen is up!,.....

[Roland99]

13. He didn't get a potty break before he went on.

[Dr. Jones]

33. Haha

:rofl:

[wicket]

125. Nah, he got a potty break- he just decided to bust a rail of coke...

...instead of going to the bathroom :rofl:

[SmokingJacket]

153. Now there's a thought...

Kind of shines a new light on last year's little "bathroom break" note to Condi, doesn't it?

[wicket]

178. LOL- I hadn't thought of that!

:rofl: :rofl:

[SammyWinstonJack]

46. Barking mad!

[babylonsister]

Growing economy...due to good policy here in DC. Yeah, right. nt

[Roland99]

11. "Last year our economy grew at a healthy 3.5%...added 5 million new jobs"

what he doesn't say is 5 million is barely above equilibrium levels and nearly half are defense-related.

What he also doesn't say is that Mortgage Equity Withdrawal is what's fueling GDP. Without MEW, GDP is near-zero.

[DanCa]

14. I can't watch the chimp.

For two very good reasons. First, whenever I see him on tv he kicks the shit out of my ulcer. Secondly I can feel my IQ points drop whenever he talks on tv.

[babylonsister]

He's sounding fairly desperate to my ears. nt

[Ilsa]

35. Me too. Like he needs to boost morale everyday to prevent

a revolution from occuring.

[C_U_L8R]

15. Is he lying again

or is he just cookoo-bananas delusional ????

[Nickster]

26. Are his lips moving? n/t

[Lasher]

31. His lips are moving, so he's lying

This is part of his 'Everything is Swell in Iraq' tour.

[fed-up]

16. "Addicted to Oil" nt

[Roland99]

17. Advanced ethanol and hydrogen cells...helping victims of Katrina.

[Daphne08]

18. Our income is up 8% due to great economic growth? n/t

[kentuck]

43. Average unemployment is lower than in the 70's, 80's, and 90's...

he brags.

He doesn't mention that the present unemployment rate is about 20% higher than when he assumed office.

[ProfessorGAC]

It's Also A Flat Out Fabrication

The numbers are so overcooked, they hard and crispy. Thisis one of the profound statistical lies of the last 2 years. The UE rate is NOT lower than it was in the 80's or at ANY point in the 90's. The numbers are fudged and the measurements have all been charged to distort the analysis. It just ain't so.
The Professor

[htuttle]

20. "...But that's not all! I'll throw in this set of beautiful steak knives"

"..and this professional Julianne Fries maker at NO EXTRA CHARGE!"

[ScreamingMeemie]

21. We're watching a tivo'd episode of "SuperNanny". Those kids

last night are much better behaved than Mr Bush. :hi:

[Raster]

22. all hail the liar and thief...

The only thing I want to hear the criminal say is "I resign." As throughout the rest of his sorry-ass life, he will never admit fault or take responsibility. Just resign. Or better yet, just wait until after 2006, when we will impeach your sorry ass and send you to The Hague to stand trial for crimes against humanity.

[carolinalady]

23. He sounds angry and defensive-very different tone than his

recent speeches. Also drawl more pronounced.

[Jacobin]

37. They changed his meds

Dr. Feelgood prescribed some little picker uppers, this morning!

[Roland99]

24. Questions...."AP person"

Q: " Violence is killing 50-60 people/day. Do you agree with Mr. Allawi that Iraq is falling into civil war?"

A: "No I do not. There are a lot of other voices coming out of Iraq....we recognize there is sectarian violence. The way I look at it is that the Iraqis looked at civil war and decided not to go there."

:wtf:

[SammyWinstonJack]

65. Really!

:wtf:

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

123. Boy I wish the US had looked at Iraq and decided not to go there.

[Roland99]

27. "The enemy has tried to spread sectarian violence. They use violence

as a tool...something we'll have to deal with...the Iraqis will have to deal with...we're making progress. I understand how tough it is. You make it abundantly clear how tough it is."

[jean]

36. HE is the enemy, spreading violence the Iraqis are having to deal with

[ProfessorGAC]

85. "They Use Violence As A Tool" What?!?!?!?

That's what we did when we bombed them into regime change! What an idiot!
The Professor

[babylonsister]

29. "I see progress" heh heh. nt

[chat_noir]

30. OMG, liveoak, so many opportunities

look at that body language and movements

[Ilsa]

32. Is he delusional? Surely he knows that only an 8% increase in

wages since 2001 is crap. He said household net worth is the highest ever. Yeah, I guess it is in his neighborhood in Highland Park Dallas.

[Roland99]

34. Q: Why are you engaging Iran in talks about Iraq if Iran is a threat?

A: "Explained what we didn't like about their involvement in Iraq...attempts to spread sectarian violence or to maybe move, uh, parts that could be used for IEDs is unacceptable to the US. It is very important for the Iranians to understand is any relationship between Iraq and Iran is between those two...Iraq is a sovereign nation"

"They shall not have the capacity to make a nucular weapon nor the knowledge to make a nucular weapon for the security of the world...if the Iranians had a nucular weapon, they could threaten the world...our policy in terms of the nucular program is to work with the EU3 and Russia and China."

[Daphne08]

38. A sovereign nation held together by American troops!

:mad:

[C_U_L8R]

39. Why is he YELLING ??

He doesn't seem to be in control of his faculties.

Is he coked up ? Perhaps other meds .. steroids ?
I've seen people go bezerk when meds mess with their chemical balance.

This is just REALLY WEIRD !! He's nuts !!

[Jacobin]

49. As our troops and foreign policy go spinning down the toilet

over Iraq, Mr. Bush was heard to yell and babble incoherently.

That will be the footnote to the pics of this speech in history books

[Dr. Jones]

40. Very angry, defensive, aggressive tone - hopped up on SOMETHING for SURE!

Man, he came out MAD today!

NOW CALLS ON HELEN THOMAS!

[jane_pippin]

41. Only 1030-odd days of hearing "Nook-yoo-ler" to go, everybody!

:woohoo:

Ooh, here comes Helen.

[Daphne08]

44. He called on Helen. n/t

[Daphne08]

48. Asking about his justification for the war. n/t

[Catchawave]

57. "OK, give us the REAL reason you went to war !?"

Go Helen, she's got him all flumoxed :rofl:

[BigMcLargehuge]

45. Oh man I turned in just in time for Helen Thomas!!!

WOOHOO!!!!

Stick it to him Helen!!!

[Voltaire]

53. GODDAMNED LIAR

Same old fucking bullshit to answer Helen's question. Disrespectful prick.

[Dr. Jones]

47. BUSH CALLS ON HELEN THOMAS, HELEN NAILS HIM ON WAR!!!!

WOW!

[Lochloosa]

52. Basically called him a liar.

Love that women

[Daphne08]

56. 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11....

[leftchick]

he is talking down to helen

he went into Iraq because of Sept. 11, he said it! MFer!

[Jacobin]

64. Holy Shit!!! He said that?

Can't wait for KO tonight

[leftchick]

71. he said Sept. 11 changed his way of thinking

He had to go after the bad guys first, nothing new, same shit that makes no sense. I believe Helen was trying to ask him again why he went to Iraq. He then went on about going after the taliban in afghanistan. wtf? He never answered the question.

ps... this is painful to watch.

[Jacobin]

88. I can't watch him, literally

My stomach starts to churn and I get a headache.

I'm thankful to those who watch and report on his descent

[Fleshdancer]

51. am I on crack? Is Bush taking questions from THE Helen Thomas?

I just turned on MSNBC and this was the first thing I saw. I'm seeing it. I'm hearing it. I still can't believe it. :wow:

[jane_pippin]

55. But, I never linked 9/11 to Iraq. Except for right now. Oh and

that other time. And, also 8 billion additional times.

No, George, excuse ME for a second you smarmy frat boy bastid.

[Lochloosa]

62. What a fucking asshole

Excuse me for a minute....excuse me.....

FUCK YOU *

[jane_pippin]

87. Yep. He sounds like everyone's shittiest boss getting called out on

his piss-poor management by upper management.

Is that what you had in mind when you said you would be a CEO President, George? Too bad.

God he's such a dick.

[tgnyc]

58. Bush has to shout over Helen Thomas to get his irrelevant 9/11

reference in.

[Dr. Jones]

59. HOLY SHIT, HELEN THOMAS KEEPS COMING AT BUSH; BUSH FLUSTERED AS HELL!!

WHOA!!

FINALLY!!

THANK YOU HELEN!!!

BUSH IS FLUSTERED PISSED AND BUMBLING!

Bush keeps saying, "Uh, excuse me Helen, uh, Helen...."

[Greybnk48]

66. Details Pleeeeaase!! I can't watch the pr*ck. n/t

[Daphne08]

69. I don't think I've ever seen him so undone. n/t

[Glimmer of Hope]

96. Oh no I missed this. A dream come true!

[Roland99]

60. Helen Thomas (Full question and detailed answer)

"Your decision to invade Iraq has caused the deaths of thousands...every reason given publicly turned out not to be true. My question is why did you really want to go to war...from the moment you stepped into office...you said it wasn't oil, Israel, what was it?"


"I think your premise is...I didn't want war. To assume I want war is flat-wrong, Helen. No President wants war...it's not true...my attitude about the defense of this country changed on Sept. 11. When we got attacked I vowed to use every asset to protect the American people. We used to think we were secure. But we realized on Sept. 11, 2001 that killers could destroy innocent life. We will do everything in our power to protect our people. We won't let people provide safe haven that's why we went into Iraq. The Taliban provided safe haven for Al Qaeda...mumble...Afghanistan provided safe haven...that's where they trained. I also saw a threat in Iraq. I hoped to solve this diplomatically. That's why I went to the UN...1441...disarm, disclose or face serious consequences...when he chose to deny inspectors....the world is safer."

[wicket]

170. He only realized on 9/11 that killers destroy innocent life???

Wow what a fucking moron!

[Lasher]

61. Goooo Helen!

I suppose he wants us to now believe he didn't want to invade Iraq? x(

Edit: Boy, did he ever cut Helen off! If I were a member of the press corps, and if I got a turn, I would ask one of the questions he wouldn't ask. Chimpy is behaving like a spoiled litte brat who didn't get his way.

[fed-up]

63. Helen-Every reason given to invade Iraq has turned out not to be true-

what is your real reason?

A-I didn't want war, to assume I want war is just flat out wrong, no president wants war, everything you heard about that is simply not true, everything changed after Sept 11

..

Our foreign policy changed on that day,

Killers could destroy innocent lives

..

we didn't allow people to provide safe haven to an enemy

Al Queda trained, Afghanistan provided safe haven

that's where they trained

also saw threat in Iraq

important to pass 1441

disarm, disclose or face serious consequences

he chose to deny inspectors

made difficult decision to remove him...


F*CKING LIAR!!

[Bridget Burke]

103. Note: On KHOU (CBS TV in Houston) news this morning,

A local reporter was speaking in front of the White House. Ongoing casualties in Afghanistan were discussed--how the Taliban is growing again & Americans keep dying.

The reporter mentioned that Afghanistan DID have some link with Al Qaeda. But, before things were settled there, we sent troops into Iraq. Which had NOTHING to do with 9/11.

Yes, we know that. But I liked hearing it featured on my morning local news. The show has mostly weather & traffic, with only brief summaries of the most important "news" stories.

[Roland99]

67. "Are you willing to sacrifice American lives" (in case Iraqis can't handle

"We need to prevent a civil war...1st line of defense is Iraqi forces which have proved themselves in the face of sectarian violence."

[babylonsister]

68. He was practically screaming! Real

presidential. :eyes:

[Cooley Hurd]

72. He looks like he's on the verge of a meltdown...

Please PLEASE let it happen LIVE!!!!:bounce:

[Panda1]

90. "Is this a personal attack?"

Shot of Rove on the side...Chimp's voice suddenly went down a notch...must have received a "slow down" cue.

[Roland99]

70. * supporter from Cleveland said "He's losing me"

I'm speaking realisticlly to the American people.

Mr. Zarqawai and Al Qaeda are the same people that attacked us.

[LizW]

73. I CAN NOT watch him.

I turned on for one second and heard that, "(snort) Heh, heh...(snort)" laugh, and I just had to turn it off.

:puke:

[Lasher]

93. No, tune back in.

He's imploding!

[Daphne08]

74. He's taking an accusatory tone with the media.

[Roland99]

75. Enemy is capable of affecting debate (by blowing up innocent life)

and it affects the woman in Cleveland you were talking to.

I think most Americans understand we need to win but they're concerned with whether we can which is why I go around the country selling my snake oil.

[kentuck]

76. Was this press conference Karl's idea ??

You gotta get your polls up Dubya...?

[Dr. Jones]

77. VERY AGGRESSIVE with the Press Today...

Talking to them directly and sometimes personally...almost yelling at them...

Same old bullcrap about Iraq being part of the war on terror...

[Roland99]

79. "I believe they want to hurt us again..they declared Iraq the central

front"


WELL DUH, ASSHOLE!!

[TexasLady]

80. he needs to be gellin;, cuz hes yellin!

:D

[chat_noir]

81. his veiled threat of media censorship

hope this really turns journalists against him

[Skidmore]

82. Did Cleveland teach the press a lesson?

[Lochloosa]

83. He sounds like a 16 year old girl begging to go out on her first date

and daddy is saying no....

uhh uhh please listen to me....i'll be good

HOW IS THIS PERSON OUR PRESIDENT?

[C_U_L8R]

84. That's it - HE'S NUTS

absolutely cookoo-for cocoapuffs
batshit crazy !!

Someone please put this man in a padded cell.

[Roland99]

86. The White Ho: Will you be changing any of your staff?

AH!!! ROVE! in the background! :puke:



"We've dealth with scandal, I appreciate their performance and they've got my confidence."

[Daphne08]

92. Karl doesn't look happy. n/t

[Lasher]

106. Did I see Karl giving him signals?

Tug on the left ear means to end the press conference and run like hell!

[qanda]

89. How my son reacted to me turning Bush on

[Skidmore]

94. Smart lad! He'll go far.

[johnnie]

95. LOL

That's great!

[brook]

Handsome and smart! n/t

[Greybnk48]

Love it!! n/t

[Cooley Hurd]

102. HAHAHAHA! Your son is a PATRIOT!!!!!

:patriot:

BTW, you know that that pic will become an instant classic on the internet(s), don't you? :D:thumbsup:

[anarch]

hahaha!

nice! :thumbsup:

[SammyWinstonJack]

129. LOL!

:rofl: :thumbsup:

[ninkasi]

135. Your son is a very bright kid!

[ScreamingMeemie]

145. That's cute...My daughter once laughed because she heard me

shouting,"Get out of my T.V.!!!" all the way downstairs. :hi:

[babylonsister]

91. Remarkably stable administration? Huh??? nt

[Catchawave]

99. "My staff values Amerika over their personal interests"

[4 t 4]

164. I'll Tell You The Reason

for going to war... because Hussein tryed to have poppy assassinated.IMO It's like the Hathaway's and McCoys. Hussein's sons had pictures of the shrubs daughters hanging in it also Hussein's main palace had a large round mosaic tile of Poppy's face on the floor you had to step on in order to enter

[springhill]

180. PNAC is the ONLY reasons we went to war.......

and the reasons for the upcoming wars.

[Roland99]

97. "Are you going to bring in a wise man, gray beard, someone to help

with Congress?"


"I listen to all suggestions...lot of people in congress weren't sure I'd make it in '04...might drag them down...I take their advice seriously. But also remember we have a positive agenda....important for Congress to get things done...we suppport our troops, got the Patriot Act reauthorized, passed a budget that cut non-security discretionary spending, got an energy bill passed (voiced CRACKED on that one), got this economy growing and keep this nation on its feet...we oughta be confident about our ability to shape the future."

"We've got some interesting ideas on healthcare."

[Dr. Jones]

98. "We've worked to get alot of positive things done"

He's geting pissed and yelling again...

[brook]

114. "totalatarian movement"...

he means us, right?

Man, is he pissed at the reporters or not?

[Daphne08]

100. The Patriot Act is a positive thing, he says and blames

Democrats for their opposition to it.

[jane_pippin]

101. "Do sumpin' wit 'em" Oh man. Shut up. Just shut up you idiot.

(This nugget of leadership was, I think, in reference to the frustrations of Katrina victims, the lack of supplies, and having the supplies down there but not in use.)

[Daphne08]

104. "I'm telling you what's on my mind."

[Roxy66]

105. I wish David Gregory was there!!

[pdxmom]

112. As soon as I heard about this, I figured they decided to do it

cause they knew Gregory wouldn't be there. If I remember correctly, the last time he did this, Gregory wasn't available, either.

[Roxy66]

119. He would tear into him

[grateful581]

128. Gregory is filling in at the Today Show

How convenient for bush

[Rose Siding]

137. I wish just ONE of them would ask if he knows the current casualty count

One fell swoop- Reporters and a nation recoil in stunned silence as it's revealed that president has no idea about what the war is costing Americans.

[pdxmom]

107. Man, this is scary! He's really defensive and his whole body language

and speech patterns sound like someone who is alternately defiant and desperate.

It makes me worried about what he'll do next while under this kind of desperation.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

108. oh, for the good old days when they used RPGs

instead of IEDs.

[Daphne08]

109. "A democracy in Iraq is going to affect the neighborhood."

[Roland99]

110. "You don't pay much attention to polls." "Correct" "Does that concern you?

"I know people are concerned. That's why I'm out here. What's on my mind is winning the war on terror. War creates concern...war creates trauma...esp. with an enemy that uses IEDs...that's the tool they use...that's what they use. That's why it's important for me to be out here to explain why we can succeed...we are doing the right thing...a democracy in Iraq will affect the neighborhood...foreign policy before was to tolerate the calm...out of which came this totalitarian movement that's willing to spread it's propaganda through death and destruction to spread their philosphy"


IRONY ALERT! IRONY ALERT! IRONY ALERT!!

SYSTEM MELTDOWN!!

[Dr. Jones]

111. Jim VanDaHei (sp?) of Washington Post asks about Bush Trustworthiness

Raises voice at Jim...

Bush gets hopping mad again, yelling, jumping up and down a little, begins to talk about the same old crap about our war on terrorism and the "enemy" that we are facing...

[Sugarcoated]

113. He's as phony and transparent

and contemptuous towards all of us as he was when I first laid eyes on him.

[jane_pippin]

115. "I've gotta continue to speak as clearly as I possibly can..."

Well any DAY now would be a good time to start down that road, George!

[SammyWinstonJack]

146. !

:spray: I'm glad there are DUers who can stomach his crap. I cannot! Anyway, it's more fun listening to the ongoing commentary here. :rofl:

[Roland99]

116. IRONY ALERT! IRONY ALERT! WARNING! SYSTEM MELTDOWN!

"foreign policy before was to tolerate the calm...out of which came this totalitarian movement that's willing to spread it's propaganda through death and destruction to spread their philosphy"

[librechik]

126. yesh, those who desire to impose their will on other countries are evil

unlike those who actually do.

[underpants]

117. Why do I get the feeling Rove watched The West Wing on Sunday

Is W going to do a "til they drop" press conference? Can he?

[LizW]

131. You may be right! How long has he been up?

We could be watching history made. I don't think Chimpy can do a "till they drop." He'll crack right there on camera.

[underpants]

149. 30 Minutes-he just started talking about how bipartisanship works

What an embarassment

[Skidmore]

118. Get the impression he'll come over the podium if someone

asks the right question? He's out of control.

[Daphne08]

120. Question about resignation of Rumsfeld.

[Daphne08]

124. "Every war plan looks good on paper until you meet the enemy."

[Catchawave]

121. "Rumsfeld has done a fine job, should not resign"

[Roland99]

122. "Should Rumsfeld resign?" "No."

He's dealing with two fronts (Iraq/Afghanistan) and transforming the military.

Enemy changes tactics and we have to, too.

[Roland99]

127. "Spending reconstruction money at the local level"

Uhh...reconstruction money is gone, ASSHOLE!

[jayfish]

130. He Doesn't Even Know What The Hell He Is Talking About.

"If I didn't think we could succeed I wouldn't have put those kids there"? You have already failed you fucking twit. We went for WsMD. ...member?

Jay

[Daphne08]

132. He says he's spending his political capital on the war.

[Roland99]

133. "I'm spending that (political) capital on the war"

"Social Security...yep...it didn't get done...notice it wasn't on the list...*cackle* *laugh* *hunch shoulders*"


"Social Security is a difficult issue for Congress to deal with. It's fraught with peril."


Wow...big word.

[jane_pippin]

134. "I Say I'm spending that capital on the WAR!"

Oh my god, he's freaking out! I only have the radio on--is he losing it as badly as it sounds like he is? Jesus god!

He's America's worst Daddy ever. Hold me, I think he's been drinking again. :scared:

[Roxy66]

136. "Please no hand gestures".....? What, did someone flip him off?!

[Catchawave]

138. "Social Security - I'm disappointed in Congress not going forward"

[Lasher]

139. Good, go ahead and talk about Social Security

That's a good way to drive his approval rating even lower.

[Dr. Jones]

140. "Social Security: It didn't get done..." (laugh)...

Difficult for alot of Congresses to deal with...

"I've tried a new tactic..."

[Daphne08]

141. Social Security is a difficult issue, he says.

Yes, for those of us who are working plebians, it is!

[Roland99]

142. Interjection: Unmanned Predator crashed in Iraq

Now...back to the blabbing.

[Daphne08]

143. Can we have a #2 Thread, Please?

[underpants]

Yeah we need a #2

[Roland99]

144. "The job of the President is not to worry about short-term issues.

It's to confront the big issues."

[Catchawave]

152. LOL...job of prez is BIG issues.....what a moran he is !

[chat_noir]

147. I'm not de turd

[Roxy66]

148. It's funny when he thinks he'a actually making a point....

he starts talking faster and gets giddy

150. As if you've ever taken the politics out of ANYTHING. Come on now.

And quit telling me what "The Job of The President" is, ok? You sound like you just finished your presidentin' training course and are all excited to tell us what you learned in the brochure. I passed American History in high school, ok, I know what your job is. I'd like you to DO IT for once.

[SammyWinstonJack]

151. Why does he keep looking down

Does he have answers to questions fed in to him? Does he have a teleprompter built into the podium?

[DrDan]

154. hahaha - just claimed to "not be de turd"

155. Feingold censure...#2 Dem. Senator won't rule out impeachment

Carl Cameron: What does discussion of Censure and Impeachment do to your office and to the American people at a time of war


"Nobody from the Democrat (sic) party stood up about the terrorist surveillance program. They oughta take their message to the people. They should say we won't have a terrorist surveillance program. They didn't think the Patriot Act should be reauthorized...if that's what the party believes it should go around the country...it's a debate I think the country oughta have)

[Chiyo-chichi]

Every Dem on Congress should seize on this. That's not the point! He was doing it illegally... and BEFORE 9/11! No one has ever said that we shouldn't spy on terrorists!

[pdxmom]

160. Faux News certainly fed him that softball about censure.

The Dems damn well better come out and respond to that whole series of comments. They need to say "We're not against monitoring terrorists. We're against monitoring Americans illegally and violating the Constitution while doing it."

Dems are letting the Repukes shape this whole argument.
