REAL HEADLINE: Bush disappointed at Republicans' losses
Oh I love it!!! I don't even care what the article says!

http://today.reuters.com/news/articlenews.aspx?type=topNews&storyid=2006-11-08T045533Z_01_N07478317_RTRUKOC_0_US-USA-ELECTIONS-BUSH.xml

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush, disappointed at the Democrats' seizure of the House of Representatives, will hold a news conference on Wednesday to urge his opponents to work with him, the White House said.

The news conference was set for 1 p.m. EST (1800 GMT).

White House spokesman Tony Snow said the outcome of the elections, in which Democrats were projected to win control of the House and pick up several Senate seats, was "not what we would've hoped."

"But it also gets us to a point: Democrats have spent a lot of time complaining about what the president has done. This is an opportunity for them to kind of stand up," Snow said.

6. Awesome!
will hold a news conference on Wednesday to urge his opponents to work with him

Will it be a "my-way-or-the-highway" type of speech? It'll be interesting; I don't think he has it in him to compromise. It's too clear that he's a spoiled brat who never matured.

9. Tomorrow's headline: Bush asks for bipartisanship and cooperation
as in "Pass my bills, or you're with the terrorists."

FUCK YOU, GEORGE W. BUSH.

10. I hope his mommy, what's her name, Bonzo?, gave the chimp
his pacifier before she put him to bed tonight.

And I hope the White House staff remembered to put plastic sheets on his bed.
I have a feeling he's going to have lots of bad dreams tonight.
And he'll probably wet the bed. Numerous times.

:evilgrin:

11. In the words of your VP
"President George W. Bush, disappointed at the Democrats' seizure of the House of Representatives, will hold a news conference on Wednesday to urge his opponents to work with him, the White House said."

Go fuck yourself - Mr. Idiot in Chief

12. As a lifetime Democrat
I would like to assure Lord Pissypants that I am urging that the Democratic House work with him just as he worked with us. After all, I believe in being "fair and balanced".
