THEN: Bush In “Carefree” Mood

“President Bush was in an expansive mood on Aug. 7, 2001, when he ran into reporters while playing golf at the Ridgewood Country Club in Waco, Tex. The day before, the president had received an intelligence briefing — the contents of which were declassified by the White House Saturday night — warning ‘Bin Ladin Determined To Strike in US.’ But Bush seemed carefree as he spoke about the books he was reading, the work he was doing on his nearby ranch, his love of hot-weather jogging, his golf game and his 55th birthday.”

NOW: Bush In “Playful” Mood

“Bush was in a playful mood as the foursome climbed into the truck and rode off. When a reporter asked if Bush actually had a driver’s license, the president replied ‘Si,’ which is Spanish for ‘yes.’”

1. Takes very little to amuse the WH reporters, doesn't it?

[maxsolomon]

2. expansive, playful, sociopathic, whatever

important question, "reporter". continue to let them shine us on.

[Bluebear]

3. 30 dead troops this week, a real laugh riot, "W". nt

[VelmaD]

4. I'm so glad he's feeling "playful"...

I'd hate to think that a couple thousand dead soldiers and tens of thousands of dead civilians were getting him down. :eyes:

[tinrobot]

5. I get scared when he's playful

I hope this August isn't like August 2001.

[Carla in Ca]

9. Now, there you go

The only difference is the number of dead and wounded. I hate to say that I'm thinking what you're thinking...tell me I'm wrong, please!

[flakey_foont]

6. hmmm

means a trip out to the barn to see the horses tonight

[Jeanette in FL]

7. "Now watch this drive"

I think those were his exact quote to the media whores then.

[Straight Shooter]

8. And as bush drove away, a reporter was heard to say "he's so full of caca"

Which is Spanish for sh*t

[tinfoilinfor2005]

28. oh I hate it when the soda comes up through my nose...

Why did you make me laugh????

[PA Democrat]

10. While Bush is in a "playful" mood there are 29 American soldiers and

God knows how many Iraqis who will never play again, never laugh again, never hug their loved ones again. Bush the great Vacation President plays while Americans die.

11. Too bad someone did not ask why he got his FIRST DL # changed

:)

12. Can't open hs mouth without lying

"I'm looking forward to getting down there and just kind of settling in," Bush told reporters from Texas newspapers during a roundtable interview at the White House on Monday. "I'll be doing a lot of work. On the other hand, I'll also be kind of making sure my Texas roots run deep."

Hey, pssst, freepers, Bush isn't from Texas. He just made that up. He's a spoiled little rich boy from the east. And he doesn't work, except for his two-hour "work-outs" every day.

[Stirk]

13. Not a good sign.

I'm trying to remember who it was that pumped his fist excitedly and said, "I feel good!" as the Iraq invasion was beginning. Hmm... he was a very playful fellow...

[latebloomer]

14. He said "SI"?

:rofl:

That will go down in history!

The wit and wisdom of GW Bush!

[Bluebear]

15. Next he'll claim he is bisexual for speaking another language!

[this_side_up]

16. the southernmost point of the pig farm - how far is it

from the border?

Who owns the land on the Mexican side?

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

17. There IS something ominous about the way he's behaving

I don't know if it means there's another terrorist attack coming, as the article seems to suggest, but you would think that Bush's handlers would try to keep him from looking too cheerful. After all, his poll numbers are tanking, with mounting casualities Iraq is going down the drain fast, the military isn't meeting its recruitment goals, the real damaging Abu Ghraib photos/videos could possibly be coming out soon, and there's the possibility of several indictments being returned by the Grand Jury. Can Bush be so brain dead that he doesn't care whether the roof caves in on his administration? Is he just a very good actor, pretending to seem nonchalant in the midst of advertsity? Or is something creeping up on the horizon that will overshadow everything else?

[Deja Q]

24. Apart from peak oil...

[GCP]

25. He's convinced the rapture is coming

That's the only reason I can think of to make him so fucking cheerful. :banghead:

[Swamp Rat]

18. Happy psycho killer

He gets to kill plants and animals for over a month! Whoopee!!!

[HockeyMom]

19. The Frisky President is Back?

Didn't we do this last year, or last "vacation"?




:puke:

[Kerrytravelers]

20. While Mr. kt and I struggle to make ends meet, I'm glad my taxdollars

are supporting yet another vacation for this "president" instead of my taxdollars funding his ass in the seat behind the desk in the Oval Office... wait, maybe we are safer when he's not in D.C.

Ten bucks he falls off something while on vacation... it wouldn't be a g. w. b. vacation without at least one boo-boo.

[kliljedahl]

29. "Boo-boo"? Don't you mean an "Owie"?

[Ksec]

21. Aaaaaw. Hes such a great guy....

who couldnt like this lovable idiot????

He plays the reporters like a fiddle.

[jmowreader]

22. What the story REALLY said before Karl Rove told them to "fix it"

Bush was in a playful mood as the foursome climbed into the truck and rode off. When a reporter asked if Bush actually had a driver's license, the pResident replied "conseguí mi licencia de conductor de una caja de las avenas, pendejo. Ahora vaya lejos porque vamos a jugar golf," which means "I got my driver's license out of a corn flakes box, asshole. Now go away because we're going to play golf."

[Jack Rabbit]

23. !!

Recoil

[Bluebear]

32. Man that is an image....

All his little toys. Unfortunately the ones he plays with die!

[Bluebear]

26. kick

[Bluebear]

34. again

[Kingofalldems]

27. Bush is just a regular guy

who plays golf at exclusive country clubs, where none of his dittohead followers would be allowed through the front gate.

[Fridays Child]

30. I hope that Cindy Sheehan puts an end to that, tomorrow.

Somehow, though, I doubt that the chimp will spare a moment of sober thought about the number of American soldiers who have died for his lies.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

31. Why not playful? He doesn't have to cry...

thousands and thousands of parents and husbands and wives and families are doing that for him. He's done his part.

[LaPera]

33. He must be clearing that dastardly brush again!

[Maru Kitteh]

35. That should be very easy to verify

A drivers license is a public record. Donuts to dollars it's just one more lie.

[DBoon]

36. "playful" is shorthand for "stinking drunk"

I'd hate to be the one to clean presidential barf out of that truck.
