CNN Breaking: the chimp fell off his bike AGAIN!!!

[nostamj]

just reported on Leslie Wolf's propaganda Teresa-bash

[Killarney]

1. was it raining again (not)?

[gWbush is Mabus]

33. RUMOR HAS IT: SHRUB IS AN EPILEPTIC

Roves wants to hide this "weakness" from the masses

[qanda]

38. Is that why he's always hiding his left hand?

I've been noticing that he either puts his left hand in his pocket of he holds that stupid dog. I wonder if there really is a medical condition that he is trying to hide.

[w4rma]

42. Little Napoleon? (nt)

[Unperson 309]

86. What? WHAT?!! Hitler did the exact same thing!!

Toward the end of his rule, Adolf Hitler suffered from possible Parkinsonism and either held his left hand with his right one, kept it in his pocket or held onto his belt buckle to stop it from shaking!

*plotz*

[Ducks In A Row]

49. Maybe they'll use this as an excuse to get Cheney a new puppet

getting rid of Bush might win them the election this time

[Not Me]

65. I seriously think so, and I think it's time

the question is publicly asked.

[Fridays Child]

85. Thirty percent of dyslexics are epileptic. And epilepsy would explain...

...a number of things: the falls, the pretzel choking, the bleary-eyed demeanor, the bad teeth (or are they dentures on receded gums?).

[VolcanoJen]

39. My Transcript of Suzanne Malveaux's CNN report!

Wolf Blitzer: "Suzanne, we understand the President took a little spill from his mountain bike today?"

Suzanne Malveaux: "Well, yes, he did, as a matter of fact. AP Reporter Scott Lindlaw was with him, an exclusive, he went bike-riding with him (the President), he has his own mountain bike, in fact. He was on his Crawford ranch, he went down a hill, and didn't quite make it, and took a spill. We were told he has some bruises and scrapes, particularly on one of his knees. He got up really quickly, we were told, and got right back on his bike. This is a President, a man who is of course very, very active. He had to give up running because of a bad knee, just some months ago. Wolf?"

Wolf Blitzer: "All right, well, let's hope the President is just fine, after that little accident. Thanks very much, Suzanne Malveaux, reporting from the ranch in, technically Crawford, Texas."

Thanks, TIVO!

[Straight Shooter]

48. "... he has his own mountain bike, in fact."

Well, BFD. What would you expect, Ms. Fluff-muff, that he rents one?

[VolcanoJen]

53. Hey, give Suzanne a break! She was traumatized.

}(

[SoCalDem]

82. Poor Suzanne.. better have a "lie down"..

[drdigi420]

87. what do you expect from a woman that cant pronounce

HER OWN NAME!

[Justice]

67. It first sounded like Scott and George were riding a TANDEM

mountain bike. When she said his own - I thought she was clarifying that bush and scott were riding separate bikes

[Spider Jerusalem]

2. How is that news?

He'd probably fall off if the bike had training wheels. Someone needs to get him a tricycle.

[arcos]

22. of course it is news...

the owner of the company who manufactured the bike could have ties to Saddam and Osama!

[DaveFL99]

32. Training wheels ?

No point. Even Segway couldn't help him.

[TrogL]

55. We need a comic - MoPaul?? anyone?

Dubya falling off his tricycle

(nevermind - see below)

[0007]

81. The sofa even tosses junior

[Fridays Child]

88. Sensible sofa, I'd say.

.

[nostamj]

41. "get him a tricycle" huh??

see post #4! (love that one mo!)

[RebelOne]

73. This thread is hilarious.

ROFLMAO!!!!

[Cheesehead]

3. Beat me too it

Skinned his knee but got up real fast. He's very active, you know.

[mopaul]

4. he really shouldn't get near things

of any kind

[jayfish]

18. Ya, That Would Be Wise. But...

then we would have to see all of those damn "Bush Falls Off Earth While Jogging" headlines. A simple machine my be less dangerous for him.

Jay

[NoPasaran]

61. In 1999 while jogging

then-governor Bush was almost hit by an out-of-control garbage truck.

[The_Counsel]

63. Good Thing He Wasn't Also Chewing Gum....

Are we sure the truck was "out of control?" :evilgrin:

[TrogL]

56. geez you're fast!

Put the comic up before I posted the request.

[StandUpGuy]

70. Glad to see you Mopaul

I was worried that you had been disappeared.

[madmax]

5. I heard Wolf and the talking hairdo

LMAO!!! Schmuck can't ride a bike. Hope he was eating pretzels while he was biking. :bounce:

[lapfog_1]

6. putting on my tinfoil again...

what are the explanations for this again? I mean, I ride a lot
and I've fallen maybe once in the last 5 years. Bush seems to
fall almost every time he rides. At least once per trip to
Crawford. Is Laura a secret spouse abuser?

[madmax]

12. Well, what do you expect....

he fell off a Segway. :evilgrin:

[_NorCal_D_]

17. LOL

He's probably drinking again. B-)

[SoCalDem]

78. It's all those damn MOUNTAINS in Crawford

[AspenRose]

7. He was pretending to be Lance Armstrong

This time of the day is 'recess' for him (after his nap and midday snack) and he was playing 'let's pretend.'

[oasis]

31. That's a good one.

:-)

[Media_Lies_Daily]

47. Yeah....and his racing helmet fell down over his eyes.

[madmax]

8. ok kids, get out all those bruised face pics n/t

[nostamj]

9. if we had a REAL media

we'd know it was a STATIONARY BIKE.... ;-)

[Downtown Hound]

10. Man, I know we like to joke about how Shrub

needs training wheels, but I'm starting to think he really does!

[LuminousX]

11. CNN Special Report: Bicycling is not safe

Recent evidence indicates that bicycles are unsafe modes of transportation. All commuters are advised to get a large car or SUV in order to move about.

[madmax]

15. 'Dadgum terrorists, again.

Putting wet gravel in my path.'

[johnfunk]

27. Must be that sneaky Al Kayda guy...

or maybe it was Al Giazzira... hold it, he's up in Boston...

[Feanorcurufinwe]

13. Is this the 'July Surprise'?

[PopSixSquish]

14. Let Me See Here

John Kerry skies, kitsurfs, rides Harleys, scuba-dives...have I missed anything?

And the moran can't even ride a bike. A skill most of us learned in our childhood.

[madmax]

16. Yes Pop but, you see bushie is still in his childhood.

He only started growing up when he hit 40 and had a mystical, magical conversion.

[bobbieinok]

29. Kerry does it well. W doesn't......therefore Kerry is an elitist snob

out of touch with 'real Americans'

[Beam Me Up]

19. Forgot the TRAINING WHEELS again?! n/t

[johnfunk]

20. Rove must've forgotten to put on the training wheels again...

... he keeps forgetting that the Prince-Regurge is a dry drunk.

[Union Thug]

21. I hope it hurt.

[jimshoes]

23. Good advice....

If you fall off your bike, the best thing to do is get right back on. Unless you're chimpy.

[KurtNYC]

24. Should we denounce gravity and the pavement

for their Bush Bashing ways?!

[redqueen]

25. Are you kidding?!

He must be drinking... how embarassing.

Was he wearing a mouth guard this time as well?

[Sparkly]

26. Oh Gawd, did you see how they titled the AP article?!

"Bush Pedals New Program: Mountain Biking"

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=694&ncid=703&e=3&u=/ap/20040726/ap_on_el_pr/cvn_bush_mountain_biking

Of course, they make him sound heroic.

[nostamj]

30. snip

CRAWFORD, Texas - George Bush plunged down hills and plowed through the brush on his high-end, high-performance mountain bike — and wound up flat on his back. A bit shaken up, the president of the United States dusted himself off, got back on his bike and kept rolling, a small cut on his knee and dirt on his back the only signs he had wrecked.

[Sparkly]

35. And this

"Bush keeps a cramp-inducing pace on the uphills, panting hard by the time he reaches each peak, backing off a little to recover, attacking the next hill just as hard.

His heart rate reached 168 beats per minute, about four times his resting rate and in the same range as Lance Armstrong's when the six-time Tour de France winner is pedaling hard." :puke:

[AspenRose]

50. Oh, NO Lance! You have competition! You better watch it!

*snort* Yeah RIGHT.

[Straight Shooter]

54. Ewwwwwwwwww! I just had a mental image of * panting hard

Yeah, that's it, put * in the same league as Lance. Not!

[LuminousX]

36. "had wrecked" or "was wrecked"?

[Sparkly]

43. LMAO!!

:D

[madmax]

34. The pugs will want to nominate him for a Purple Heart

:mad:

[Sparkly]

40. Right, the fearless leader wrestled the bicycle to the ground!!

He didn't falter, he didn't flinch, he didn't waver! He didn't weeble, he didn't wobble, but actually he DID fall down...

[SoCalDem]

84. Hey.. He IS "commander in chief" and we ARE at war..and he's

ALWAYS "on duty"...so he must deserve one..:eyes:

This one is suitable for a "girly-man" like him :)

[oasis]

37. They made Bush seem like Eisenhower on D-Day.

:eyes:

[SheepyMcSheepster]

28. seriously, you would think they would just keep him off bikes.

[Stew225]

51. Shrub makes Ford look like

a Wallenda!

[heidiho]

44. He is such a "girlie man"

Can't even ride a two-wheeler!

[Sparkly]

46. Well, last time they made sure to tell us that he

"wasn't whistling showtunes." :eyes:

[napi21]

45. Are we going to be treated to bruises and scratches again?

I haven't seen any pics yet. Wonder if we'll be treated to some more facial bruising and road rash....AGAIN!

[stopbush]

52. "Lookee here, ah'm better than Lance Armstrong! Ah kin, whoa...

WHOOOOOAAAAA...WHAM!!

Mommie!!

[yella_dawg]

57. Dear President Bush,

Panaracer Dart on the front wheel. Panaracer Smoke on the back. I ride the same conditions as those on your so-called ranch, and with these tires, I've only fallen once in the last ten years. And that was because the front wheel wedged in some rocks. Tell the Secret Service dude to kick the bike shop guy's ass, 'cause he's obviously sold you shit tires.


And don't ride after you been drinking, because the heat does strange things to your body after a few beers.

[Sparkly]

59. All warranties void if operated by a complete and total idiot

no matter how much he pants.

[in_cog_ni_to]

58. Hahahahaha! WHAT A DOOFUS! n/t

[tandot]

60. Spousal Abuse!!! You all know that Cheney beat him up again.

This is a typical statement from an abused spouse:

I fell of the bike... or
I fell down the stairs ...
I choked on a pretzel...
I accidentally ran into the wall...

[AspenRose]

83. I thought Condi was his spouse....she was trying out that CATWOMAN

outfit she just ordered from Frederick's of Hollywood.

*thwap!* *kaPOW!* "Oops, my bad."

62. Long discussion of "Bush's Erratic Behavior" from LBN

Bush's Erratic Behavior Worries White House Aides


From Capitol Hill Blue

Bush Leagues
Bush's Erratic Behavior Worries White House Aides
By DOUG THOMPSON
Publisher, Capitol Hill Blue
Jun 4, 2004, 06:15



President George W. Bush’s increasingly erratic behavior and wide mood swings has the halls of the West Wing buzzing lately as aides privately express growing concern over their leader’s state of mind.

In meetings with top aides and administration officials, the President goes from quoting the Bible in one breath to obscene tantrums against the media, Democrats and others that he classifies as “enemies of the state.”

Worried White House aides paint a portrait of a man on the edge, increasingly wary of those who disagree with him and paranoid of a public that no longer trusts his policies in Iraq or at home.

The President's abrupt dismissal of CIA Directory George Tenet Wednesday night is, aides say, an example of how he works.

"Tenet wanted to quit last year but the President got his back up and wouldn't hear of it," says an aide. "That would have been the opportune time to make a change, not in the middle of an election campaign but when the director challenged the President during the meeting Wednesday, the President cut him off by saying 'that's it George. I cannot abide disloyalty. I want your resignation and I want it now."

Why is it in LBN?

[nostamj]

66. no, it's from TODAY

on edit: oops. yes, the capital hill blue story is old. the NEW bike story is, uh..... NEW!

[seemslikeadream]

68. That thread is old

after the first fall!

[donco6]

69. Here's the Repug spin:

"President George W Bush never shrinks from danger, nor backs away from a tough ride. If it means taking a spill, he's up to the challenge . . ." blah blah. Probably accentuated with a Repug mountain biker in gear clomping on the stage with bandaged Bush.

mark my words. . .

[sbj405]

72. Denver Post spin

"His heart rate reached 168 beats per minute, about four times his resting rate and in the same range as Lance Armstrong's when the six-time Tour de France winner is pedaling hard."

[BillZBubb]

77. Four times his resting rate?

What is he, a reptile? OK, don't answer.

[Sparkly]

80. hahahaHA!!

I don't think I've laughed this hard since the last time he fell off his bike.

[izzie]

71. Well that got us all into this DU thing fast.

This guy can not be let out with our a keeper, at this rate their will not be a bone left in his head in one piece.
