Ok boys & girls its that special time to quiet down and sit still
because its heightened terra time which means its time to read a book.


I don't know about any of you but I was in full agreement with Bill Maher on Larry King last night that Bush sitting stunned in the classroom is the most damning evidence of Bush's utter incompetence and the Dems should be making alot more noise about this.


Personally I think everytime there is an increased alert Dems should bring out the picture of Busholini sitting stupified and frozen reading a book and refer to alerts as reading time.

1. Another great TV add that no one has capitalized on.
Intersperse news reports from the first minutes (never showing the towers themselves, as Moore was wise to do) with footage of Bush sitting there in that classroom with that, "Oh shit, I'm the President!" look on his face.

3. They haven't capitalized on this at all.
This is like a gift from God. I just had an image of this picture juxtaposed with scenes from war movies of army captains jumping into actions when bad news hits.

4. Maybe they're waiting
until September or October to make an ad out of it. At least that's what I hope.

people still think Bush is better on fighting terror. This one picture puts the lie to that. Bush was stunned and helpless. Is it a picture of a man fit to deal with terror? The only thing repukes can say is that he didn't want to upset the kides. Well aa Maher pointed out why would 20 kids be frightened if dimwit stood up, waved goodbye and said "gotta go I got presidential business"?


Furthermore, a Mahar pointed out, Bush put 20 kids ahead of the entire nation. That is utter insanity.

2. Great idea!
Let's use the following scale:

Big book, no pictures = High Terror Alert, vote republican

Medium book, no pictures = pretty bad, watch FOX

Small book, some pictures = we are safer, buy something from Wal-mart

Small book, lots of pictures = safer than safe, blame Clinton for something
