Watch Bush get REAL pissed during this interview
Great interview for RTE (Irish National TV) during his visit last June. The reporter's name is Carole Coleman and apparently the White House later lodged a formal complaint about her "disrespect" to Bush.

Link is in the first paragraph

I wonder if Fox News are hiring???

2. Welcome to DU, Sean
Yeah, that interview that Carol Coleman did with Bush in June is a real pisser.

Dumbya shows his true colors in it. You do realize that Ms. Coleman was supposed to interview Laura, aka Pickles, the next day and the WH cancelled the interview.

BTW, my husband's from Co. Down, so mind yourself and congrats on winning the Liam McCarthy this year. I'm putting money on Waterford for next year, though.

7. Yeah, I'm well aware of the "friendly rivalry" between Cork and

Waterford in hurling. There's great craic in the pubs here during the summer when they show the matches live on Sunday mornings. It truly is worth paying the $20 just to get to hear the fellas and even women sometime.

When will the Cork footballers ever beat Kerry? It's been a while hasn't it?

BTW where are you in Cork? My husband and I have a very dear friend that lives in Youghal.

Was brought up in Cork City but I remember as a kid going for days out to Youghal. It was one of the closest seaside resorts and you could get the train quite cheap. And it had "Perks" the best amusement arcade I'd ever seen. If I'm driving down to Cork I always make a point of stopping in Youghal en route. Even with all the changes in the last few years it's still a beautiful place.

And no Cork may never again beat Kerry at football. We're still shite!

Got to the part where Bush responds to a question about Iraq by saying, "We were attacked on September 11th..."

:grr:

Blood pressure began to soar, so I clicked the video off. For that lie alone, he should be clapped in irons.

11. OMG: here is the real Bush....
you hear people talking about how he is a puppet; there is nothing 'puppet' about him in this interview:

some quotes:

B: "You ask the questions and I'll answer"....

reporter (R): 'Do you believe the hand of God is guiding you?"

B:" OUr job is to promote peace and freedom..."

R: "Why is it that others don't understand what you're about>?"

B: "Most of Europe supported my decision in Iraq"

B: "You keep emphasizing the deaths in Iraq...."

12. The UK people are used to Blair.

Seeing the thing that represents the U.S. is humiliating to this country by comparison.


"Le Le Le Le Le Let me finish. Let me finish!"

People in this country probably think that's tough.

13. "Nobody cares
more about their deaths than I do." In reference to
US soldiers. Yeah right, Dweebya. You don't even
bother to show up at their funerals. And you want to
be known as the war president? Your secretary of Defense
won't even sign letters of condolences to the families of
the fallen troops.

You are about money, and your own self importance...little else.

And you make me sick.
