* on vacation AGAIN????


President Bush, carrying his dog Barney, gives a thumbs-up after arriving at TSTC Airfield Friday, July 23, 2004, in Waco, Texas. Bush will spend a week at his nearby Crawford, Texas, ranch.

------

I thought there was "credible" news that we are about to be ATTACKED again, booga booga booga! WTF is he doing on vacation again?

6. Haven't you ever seen that film clip of *, with Barney on the
leash? You can see the dog's legs are stiff, and his feet planted.

* tugs the leash and drags Barney along. His legs are still stiff, and he slides along reluctantly, as his master yanks the leash.

His dog hates him, he is afraid of horses. The man is just not good with animals.

Animals can tell about people. No self-respecting animal would ever have anything to do with *, at least not willingly.

16. Barney doesn't like him.
I remember seeing George and Laura Bush in one of their first big TV interviews. It might have been when Bush was still a candidate. Barney came into the room, and Bush tried to call him over. But the dog wouldn't go to him. Bush clearly looked a little embarrassed, but passed it off with a joke.

Everyone knows that a dog you spend time with and treat well will come to you. But Barney wouldn't come to Bush. The dog doesn't know Bush very well, apparently, possibly because the only time Bush picks him up or plays with him is when there is a camera around.

Then he dropped him too...

19. Barney doesn't like his master because his master is evil.
Haven't you seen it in the movies? If your cat, dog, horse, bird, etc., doesn't like a new acquaintance of yours, it automatically means the acquaintance is EVIL!

4. Look at that dumb face of his....
he's hurrying to the ranch for a big
turkey dinner because even though it's only
July, our selected leader believes it's
Thanksgiving already. That's why he's on
vacation :crazy:

5. Thumb up, hitching a ride out of town.
Think I'll add this one to the post-election 'buh-bye george' file.

That poor dog. He looks so stiff. Does that breed of dog normally hold themselves like this when they're being carried, or is he bracing himself for another tumble?

8. Makes me wonder...
They (Bush and cabinet) are claiming that a terrorist attack is imminent. Now they are dissapearing at a rather strange time (a time that would be perfect to take publicity from the Dem. convention and bolster Bush's sagging ratings should there be a terrorist attack.) Kind of reminds me of once before when they were warned of a terrorist attack, and felt the need to vamoose.

9. pResidential campaign ruins Bush's vacation

White House Letter: Presidential campaign ruins Bush's vacation
http://www.iht.com/articles/529958.html
by Elisabeth Bumiller IHT


WASHINGTON George W. Bush has spent the last three Augusts at his ranch in the scorched flatlands of Crawford, Texas, where he has cleared brush, gone for runs in scorching heat and summoned sweaty cabinet members to eat fried jalapeo peppers at the only restaurant in town. No one ever confused the place with that white-wine-swilling island in the Atlantic Ocean, to reprise the president's putdown of Martha's Vineyard, and so Bush has loved it all the more.

But this year, the 2004 campaign has ruined Bush's Texas vacation. Or, put another way, if Bush doesn't give up a lot of his summer holiday, the fear at the White House is that he could be on a permanent one as of January.

------

and...

Dear Yahoo!: How many vacation days has George W. Bush taken to date as president? How does that compare with Clinton? ----Vince -- West Hollywood, California

12. After November, the walking buttcrack* can vacate for good...
I'm sick of this lazy good-for-nothing (except destruction) ass wipe microcephalic apostate's incompetence (and he allowed 9/11, LIHOP was proven and MIHOP is not yet beyond a reasonable doubt.)

Like his corporate buddies, he's fleecing this country - and furthering the destroying of whatever respect the US ever had. (the corporate foreign outsourcing and maltreatment of the Americans it provides jobs and careers to was not unnoticed by the rest of the world, too...)

13. To be fair-- he needs the time to read and absorb the 9/11 report
Okay I couldn't hold a straight face while typing that.

Let's see 10 respected individuals spend 2 years investigating what happened on and before that horrible day, make suggestion on what needs to be done now IMMEDIATELY and the President and the Republican controlled Congress..................GO ON VACATION!!!!!!!

Cocktails and BBQ for EVERYONE :toast::beer:

20. Maybe they are hiding something from the rest of us . . .
Such as knowing that there IS going to be an attack at this time.
Why else would all of these Bush people suddenly get out
of Washington to go on vacation at the same time?

22. B*sh wants the 9/11 report condensed to a 1 page brief.
As usually he doesn't want to get "bogged down" while on vacation.
