Poll question: At what point in his presidency will George W. Bush no longer pretend that he gives a shit?

[tekisui]

11. The operative word is "pretend"...

...of course he never did, but he still "pretends."

:patriot:

13. I have trouble noticing when he's trying to pretend

since he's so busy smirking and stifling laughter. It reminds me of the "Wink, wink, nudge, nudge" segment of Monty Python.

5. He's only cared about making money for his homies.

The presidency has been a tool for him. He has never given one god damned shit about it otherwise.

7. OI disagree with everyone here...

according to the news rickle, he wiped his arse with the Constitution the day he took the oath.

Look at the warrantless wiretapping.

9. Other 12/12/00. nt

[MADem]

10. They hold on to trappings all the way to the end. The inaguration will probably be a revisit of

this sort of boorish behavior:

12. What is Katrina? n/t

14. His recent "life is unfair" junket tried to put that to rest, unsuccessfully...

President Bush to Tornado Victims: “Life is Unfair”

Is it just me or does this seem to be a callous response to a disaster that claimed so many lives and left so much destruction?

I’d figure after Katrina the President would have to have had a better message than this. Either CNN’s Ed Henry is just being awful charitable or else there must have been a lot more that President Bush said that just wasn’t in the clip they showed. What they did show sure didn’t live up to Henry’s intro.

Henry: The message from the President obviously was burned politically by Hurricane Katrina and the slow government response, was very simple: The government is here to help.

Bush: We’re sorry you’re going through what you’re going through. You know life sometimes is unfair and you don’t get to play the hand you wanted to play but the question is when you get dealt the hand how do you play it, and I’ve come away with this impression of the folks here in Macon county. One, they’re down to earth good hard working people. They have a respect for the Almighty, and this community is going to be as strong as ever. That’s what I think.

So where was “the government is here to help” part?

16. 2005. See: Katrina. n/t

17. Jeez--he's been pretending to give a shit?

[Preston120]

18. George Bush pretends!

I don't think he ever care about people.  "An unjust and
immoral war". No child left behind, with no funding.  He
has been a hypocrite since his election.  What I'm wondering
is the American voter any smarter, or will they fall for the
same old crap?

[truebrit71]

20. When did he EVER do that?
