Bush is worried about something

[newsguyatl]

... not that i really care, or that it really matters either way


but, something's eating at him.

it's been pronounced since he 'won' the election.

i saw it again really pronounced today with the video coming out of canada.

ya know, it's like he's there, but he's not there. something's on his mind.

admittedly, i'm particularly perceptive on things like this, but to me, his behaviour couldn't be any more obvious.


like i said, it doesn't really matter either way -- because we're stuck with the disaster that four more years of him will bring, BUT, it's still hard not to speculate about what he knows... or is scared is coming out.

[CatWoman]

1. that rat bastard

maybe he was concerned that he forgot to zip his pants again? Ya think??

:hi:

[Rumba]

2. He looks

very tired, and distressed, and worried. I've been noticing it in all the pictures of him since the election.

When's he going in for that physical, anyway?

[LSparkle]

Yeah, when?

I think he knows he didn't win the election (he probably really believed Karen Hugeshoes when she initially told him that) and he's worried that somehow that fact will come out and then -- what will he do? Cheney and co. won't let him quit, and he'll be exposed as a fraud. If he thought the last 4 years were hard -- claims of illegitimacy after 2000 -- the next 4 will be worse once it's PROVEN he didn't win the electoral vote.

[212demop]

61. All the traveling to those South American countries probably gave him

a bad case of the runs- they couldn't feed him his usual formula or accomodate his bedtime.

[Carla in Ca]

74. He knows he lost

No, maybe not because that would mean he has a conscience. He must be trying to taper off on the meds.

[w13rd0]

3. Probably constipation...

...have to be constipated what with both Cheney and Rove having their hands up his ass.

[BrklynLiberal]

20. heh heh heh That's the most likely n/t

[Stephanie]

4. He's listening to his earwig

That's what I saw. He looks pensive because he's waiting for them to feed him his lines. Watch that PC again. He speaks. Looks down & waits. Then speaks, sometimes mangling words as he's not quite sure what he's saying but just parroting.

Would the Canadian press please ask about the earbug?

[CalebHayes]

5. I think he is worried for his life.

there have been many plots to kill him of recent. ----- I want to make it clear now to all republicans, democrats, freepers, DUers, FBI, and the Secret Service that I wish no harm on the president. ----

[indigobusiness]

31. If I were him...

I'd wish I were dead.

I want him around to face the music. No easy way out.

I'm not vindictive or punitive, but...

[mtnsnake]

36. That's why he made Cheney VP. That alone discourages any attempts

on his life.

[RegexReader]

50. BINGO! We have a winner

and if Cheney was given a free reign with the sympathy factor plus him not worried about 2008, it would be hell on earth for us.

[genieroze]

54. We want him and his policies out of office.

Nobody want's him dead. I heard there was a assassination attempt in Colombia. Ticked me off, hey he's our a-hole, so back off Bozo's. If he was assassinated by a foreigner, there would be heck to pay for the country of their origin.

[leesa]

68. Oh, that's real brilliant. Why should the country of origin have to pay?

What is this wild west BS??

[genieroze]

77. We live in freeper land

don't you know that? You really must know if something like that happened the right wing in this country would go crazy. I know us. Bush needs to go, not die.

[JI7]

6. i think he has some disease

based on the way he looks and acts and his refusal to take the medical exam before the elections.

[LosinIt]

9. that disease is alcoholism

[Mutley]

40. this is his disease.....

[Narraback]

52. Thank you for that link...

viewed and forwarded to some folks.

[Cha]

7. Maybe bush is worried

about :wtf: they stole again.

[xultar]

8. Are you saying that * has a soul and might feel something?

I think not...:crazy:

[newsguyatl]

10. even a killer worries about getting caught

[xultar]

26. Score one for newsguyatl n/t

[quaoar]

11. His seven years will soon be up

And he will have to deliver his soul to Satan, as per the contract he signed to get elected.

[Imajika]

12. I see just the opposite...

...It appears to me that Bush now believes he is God's righthand man.

Talk about hubris. The guy is marching around, yammering on about all this political capital he supposedly has, as if he'd won 75% of the vote rather than the slim majority he got.

I see nothing that indicates he is worried, or that anything at all is eating at him. And no, he is not worried about election fraud being exposed or that somehow he might not be inaugurated in January - he knows full well that he has 4 more years to embarass us.

The pendulum always swings though, and the tide will turn against the GOP. Look for the Dem's to make sizable gains in 2006 as the 6 year itch sets in.

Imajika

[newsguyatl]

16. we must be looking at two

different pResidents.

[Stephanie]

70. No, it's true. He's adoped some new airs.

Now he acts as if the world has voted him Most Smartest. He is less defensive but more affected. Less chip on his shoulder, more God Elected Me. The guy is a Shakespearean tragic hero. He desperately wants to believe his own press, but he knows it isn't true. Nevertheless he tries to act the part.

[sallyseven]

18. He is scared that the votes will be counted. Then it is

all over for him. History will kick his butt.

[robbedvoter]

58. Oh yeah? Will Diebold regurgitate our votes then?

[evil genius]

13. he's just tired

give the guy a break. he hasn't had a vacation since august. That's the longest period of non-slacking of his entire adult life.

[MatrixEscape]

24. Welcome to DU, evil genius! Glad you came aboard.

[hangloose]

14. I've heard from Reliable sources (on the QT) that he's on heavy

medication, and has been suffering from dementia. Remember on the third debate the left side of his face was kinda droopy and drool was visible in the corner of his mouth. He hasn't taken that physical yet, postponed because of the election they say and there is more, or so they say.

If you ask me, he's a unstable, megalomaniac, paranoid-schizoid-nut case. And with that and being the president of this great nation you have a very dangerous mix.

But that's just my opinion.

[cliss]

25. You could be right.

I've noticed one thing about Bush: whenever he travels, he looks like crap. And since we're so much in love with him here, we get to see all these photos of George's Travels! I saw photos of him in England. Another trip to Paris to visit his best friend Jacques Chirac. Even one photo from Hawaii. Quite a scrapbook, there.

Most of the time, he looks really strange. His eyes become very swollen, puffy on the top and bottom. His face looks pale, and he often looks disoriented, as if he wants to say, "What planet am I on?"

Or, "stop the world, I want to get off". This tells me that, he's either

1) the princess on the pea, and he needs his blankie, and luvy-duvy pillow from his own widdow bed, or

2) he's on a high dosage of medication

3) they don't put so much makeup on the guy when he's out traveling, or he somehow ends up in more photos than while in the White House.

[NMDemDist2]

27. i said that to hubby today, the guy hates travel

i read somewhere they did their best to make sure he could come home very night while campaigning

he's not curious, so he hates new places and people and misses his widdle bed..

[genieroze]

55. My father had trouble sleeping in a strange bed, I'm the same way.

It's takes me a few days to adjust.

[A Simple Game]

69. or 4) withdrawal symptoms?

[Mutley]

42. lets hope he's in much better condition than that....

because if anything happens to him we all know who we'll be stuck with..........

who is worse?

[Liberty Belle]

59. Maybe it's mad cow disease.

His brain does seem wasted, don't you think?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

15. What was weird to me was "CON"dy not wanting to

get confirmed until January. The news glossed over it but they did say it was unusual because she could have done it in Dec.

I immediately thought...She know's they might not really stay and doesn't want to be humiliated by being confirm during the fraud exposure.

[hangloose]

19. Well, I hope your right or maybe she just wanted a little time to

get those damn front teeth fixed.

[musette_sf]

21. You have a point.

[Imajika]

22. That is odd isn't it..

I've wondered about that too. I heard she has just had, or will have, an operation of some type - but it was supposed to be a very minor procedure.

From all accounts, Condi was set to be confirmed easily, so why delay it? Something stinks about this, I just have no idea what it might be.

Imajika

[Stephanie]

71. It's not such a minor procedure

You would want a few weeks to get back up to speed.

[212demop]

62. I thought it was because the new congress wouldn't give her as hard a

time at the confirmation hearings.

[zann725]

76. They also said Tom Ridge's replacement would NOT start until February?

I immediately thought, they're waiting to see who's REALLY innaugarated!
I forgot about Condi. That's two! Perhaps...

[KC21304]

17. I was listening while doing other things and not looking

at the screen much and I thought he sounded out of breath. Anyone else think they heard heavy breathing ?

[dweller]

23. maybe it's this?

[merh]

32. I posted the same thread!

can you imagine :silly: - why would that weed be worried (unless roundup starts falling from the skies instead of rain).

[dweller]

35. let's just take him out

by the roots.

:thumbsup:

dp

[merh]

37. LOL - I definitely won't be using 5 fingers to wave at him

if I am unfortunate enough to anywhere near where he could see my wave. :evilgrin:

[C.C.D.]

28. Maybe his batteries are running low. (nt)

[indigobusiness]

29. His body language, yesterday, couldn't have been more clear.

When he was announcing his latest lackey. His facial expression was the classic mask of a deceiver who is wondering if you are catching on.

It's truly amazing that this land has bought this rank BS. What a moron majority.

[merh]

30. Go enjoy this thread

Kerry campaign joins the glib lawsuit in OH!!!


Cobb asks Bush administration to provide non-partisan support as well for the recount effort! Great news!

From the Cobb website, here: http://www.votecobb.org/press/2004/nov/pr2004-11-30b.ph...

<snip>
Statement From the Green Party Presidential Campaign Concerning John Kerry's Intervention in Ohio Recount Court Case
Kerry-Edwards campaign files papers in Ohio to intervene in legal proceedings in defense of Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb, Libertarian Michael Badnarik

Ohio — Today, attorneys representing the Kerry-Edwards campaign filed papers in Delaware County, Ohio to intervene in legal proceedings in defense of Green Party presidential candidate David Cobb, Libertarian Michael Badnarik and their legal counsel, the National Voting Rights Institute, who are seeking a recount of all votes cast for president in the Ohio 2004 general election.<unsnip>


http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=203&topic_id=94805


----
Yeah, he is worried!

[napi21]

33. He's not used to being near protestors, or people who don't KA.

Remember, for the last 4 years, and on the campaign trail, he's been protected from protestors, and those around him kiss his.....or anything else he asks. I'me quite sure he's not a happy camper seeing 5000+ people giving him the single finger salute, or a professional, but very cool reception by the PM of Canada.

Then of course, there's those 2 house members who are holding out on passing the Intel Bill, and Hastert won't even bring it up for a vote. This boy doesn't like disobedience, ya know.

[whistle]

34. If that is true then he'll implode sooner or later. . .

. . . Remember the insanity of King George of England during the 1770's. Well Shrub is certifiable I am certain and essentially he is very lazy. He hates to have to do things over and over, like picking new people for a second term and getting to know each of them again and getting them to understand his idiosyncrasies and what he doesn't like to do and so on. During his first term that was all being done for him and when he was inaugurated he went on vacation for six of his first nine months in office.

Cripes, he has to hang around this time and make sure that the elections are held in Iraq and he may have to go and order the bombing of Iran, or North Korea. During the debates he whined about all the work he had to do, this term promises to be even more work and I'm sure he would just like to go and party most of the time. Besides, the Dominionists are really breathing down his neck, they want a lot more righteousness displayed in the Great Babylon of Washington DC. That must be weighing a lot on Shrub's tiny mind!

[VioletLake]

38. His "reality" is falling apart.

He knows that he's toast. It's just a matter of time.

[Doctor_J]

39. these trips make him nervous

his sycophants tell him how great he is, then he goes to these meetings and is confronted with the truth - that he's stupid, ignorant, despised, and an embarrassment. the drugs he takes keep him from getting snippy, but the realization that he is far, far out of his depth seeps through.

[Stephanie]

73. Yes you're right

He flips when he has to meet actual people.

[madison2000]

41. maybe reality is bothering him

After all he lives in a fantasy world where everyone thinks he is king. Maybe all these overseas trips where there are protesters are getting through his thick skull.

[Mutley]

46. lol... maybe he didn't even want to win the election...

and he's thinking 'damn! dick told me it would be a sure loss. that son of a bitch lied to me!'

or not. heehee!

48. Reality May be Sinking In

The world hates him and soon his base will turn on him when he doesn't deliver on those wacko right wing issues that the Christian Fundementalist are pushing for.

[Must_B_Free]

49. He's got Johnny's Trophy

See the Marlon Brando film "The Wild One".

In this film the leader of the pack brando steals a motorcycle trophy from the guy who won it and lashes it to the front of his cycle and parades around town as if he has accomplished something.

When he falls in love with a good honest girl, he feels the reality of his fraud as a person.

[bywho4who]

51. look for something

to blow the fuc* up & somemore shit



:smoke: :hippie:

[peekaloo]

53. It's hard work running the world when everybody hates your

fucking guts. On top of that he has to remember to zip up his pants when hanging out in foreign countries....something about maintaining the dignitude of the office or somethin'. :shrug:

He's in WAY over his head and he knows it. THAT realization is surely a bitch.

[pdxblue]

56. napalmed civilians, 100,000 deaths in iraq and counting....

that's a lot to worry about.

[Used and Abused]

57. someone revealed to him that he is not in charge

And that a powerful corporation planted him in office. That's why his entire admin is resigning. They're making room for the new players.

Either that, or he's returned to drinking. I know what a hell addiction can be (I'm addicted to food).

[212demop]

60. remember how he wouldn't get his physical before the election?

Wonder if it's medical. One can dream.

[Sparkly]

63. You just gave me a scary thought

I've long had the idea that Cheney won't stick around for four years; Chimp will replace him with the person BushCo wants to run in 2008 in order to ooze him through any primary challenges, set him up as a hero, etc...

What if that happened, and then Chimp bowed out in time to let the new figurehead emerge as an even bigger hero and shoe-in for eight more years of neo-con catastrophes???

:tinfoilhat:

[212demop]

64. OH MY GOD- Can they do that?

Or... no. I mean. No. We still get an election for God's sake. We still get to run someone to oppose the guy.

[Sparkly]

65. Right, but that'd give them a huge headstart

in terms of a bully pulpit, an incumbent, framing the issues, etc...

And, it would keep any of the remaining sane Republicans from getting a fair shot at it.

That'd happen simply by appointing a new VP, but if the Chimp departed as well, they'd have the new ticket right there campaigning from the White House.

It's a crazy reach, but still... I wouldn't put anything past them!

:tinfoilhat: :scared: :tinfoilhat:

[212demop]

66. Nor would I. Jesus.

[robbedvoter]

67. A Diebold election

[Bridget Burke]

72. You mean--the next Harold Ford?

He didn't exactly get on the road to political glory....

[Clarkie1]

75. I have noticed that too for several weeks!

First time I've heard someone else mention it.

It's disconcerting a little. I have a feeling whatever is worrying him has nothing to to with the election, but national security.

He knows something we don't. Something's up.

I've also noticed Condi Rice looking particulary stressed lately, and Powell.

[goclark]

79. Chimp does not have a worry gene

He is a tin man.

No heart, no soul.

[leftofthedial]

78. Condi said no more strap-on action

until after she's confirmed

and he's not sure he has the votes.

Plus, Unka Dick wants him to start working a couple of hours a day on Presdunt stuff instead of flying around schmoozing fundies and corporate bagmen.
