Bush is totally from TX again tonight, just jawing with the folks on 60-min

[Rose Siding]

There's a very short clip at the link. I'm afraid that watching the pathology of a mad man unfold through a whole interview is a little much for me- In just this little bit it's very clear he feels threatened and defensive. His hostility, insecurity, and self-absorption have him squirming and fidgeting.

But catch that twang! It's baaaack. You know, the one that only shows up when he's campaigning for something?

1. You mean campaignin' for somethin', don't you? LOL

[Rose Siding]

3. Y'all have me tickled now.

:D

2. He isn't as heavily drugged as he was on Wednesday.

So without the 'ludes he's got the fake Texas accent back.

[Bluebear]

4. "Ah'm doin' it! Ah made my decision and ah'm goin' forrard!"

:eyes:

5. Yep, he's sucking up to his base of Fristians.

Barbara Bush eyes and head tilted to the side...

6. That's not Texan

that's Connecticut frat boy on cocaine listening to too much Marshall Tucker

8. I shorthanded it :)

No offense to those who possess the lovely, genuine regional accents that I enjoy so much.

7. He has to keep 'splaining

to the rest of us nincompoops why he has to escalate the war. "Sometimes you gotta be the Commander in Chief, sometimes you gotta be the Educator in Chief. Sometimes you gotta be both." So now he's the Educator in Chief and he's gonna keep educating us about why he's right even though everybody thinks he's wrong.

Sweet weeping Jesus, the arrogance!

:nuke: :nuke: :nuke:

10. Yeah, if we only we weren't so thick!

But it's hard work being the Chief of All Things.

9. Yes, he's just one of the good old boys again tonight. He's selling

the war again and sounding like a used car salesman (my apologies to any used car salesmen out there) trying to sell and old heap by putting a fresh coat of paint on it and trotting it out as something new.

11. The SOB will appeal to distant inlaws in MS.

Damn it all, he's playing the "tough job" card.

I can envision little old ladies with tears in their eyes, prayer chains,
--hell, he may get above 32% again.

12. Doesn´t duel personality have a certain ring to it ?

[mahatmakanejeeves]

13. Sometimes I'm the educator-in-chief.

Just shoot me now.

[TexasProgresive]

14. No Texan talks like that mush mouthed fool.

[peekaloo]

15. I was perversely amused by it's "indignation" on the Saddam execution.

When asked to confirm that it didn't care to watch the entire video and it responded "Yes, I didn't" with a smile (I believe) made me scream, literally.

I'm feeling very Buffalo Bill tonight. :evilfrown:

[soothsayer]

16. He layed it on thick, didn't he
