5.  I can't watch that freak at all .
The only way I can is later on after a few drinks and still he looks like a complete idiot , a dangerous idiot with dictatorship on his mind and another war . If there is a WW III he will be the cause of it .

13. The President's mental health appears questionable today.
And I don't mean this as a snark.

It truly sent chills up my spine to watch his eyes and body language as he laughed over WWIII.

2. Sorry, I just can't do it. I just can't stand to watch the little prick.
Heard about 3-4 minutes of him on television this morning...it's the Dems fault that nothing in Congress is getting done...blah blah blah...I just had to turn him off.

I just can't stand to listen to the man. His voice is shrill to me. Every mispronounced word, unnecessary pause, smirking glance...I just can't deal with it.

I really have to be in the mood for him, I have to prepare myself for what I'm about to endure. And even then, sometimes, I can't do it. :shrug:

7. I wonder if he actually understands that "compromise" doesn't
mean capitulate to his unerring will and wisdom.

8. That understanding goes WAY ABOVE what the man is capable of processing
in his teeny tiny little brain.

Years of alcohol and drug abuse do that to you.

It's his way or the highway...that's the Bush understanding of compromise. :eyes:

3. Wow, I don't think I've ever seen him that bad
They need to crank up his meds. It's just so painful to wattch. I like when he's asked if he's in charge of the contractors and he says he is, in that The State Department hired them. Huh?

4. Well his best "joke" was about staying beyond his term
yep very "funny."

Will people finally wake up?

Question starting at 30:51

Peter: Following up on a question about Vladimir Putin for a moment. He has said recently that next year when he has to step down according to the constitution as President, he may become Prime Minister, in effect keeping power and dashing any hope for a genuine democratic transition there.

Bush: I’ve been planning that myself. (barely audible chuckle in the room)

Peter: Sen. McCain said yesterday sir that when he looks into Putin’s eyes he sees a “K” a “G” and a “B.” He never would invite..

Bush: Pretty good line.

Peter: He would never invite him to Kennebunkport and he says it’s time we got a little tough with Vladimir Putin. I wonder if you think McCain was right and what would it mean for Russian democracy if, when you leave power, assuming you do, in January 2009, if Vladimir Putin is still in power.

Bush rambels about relationships, when dictatorships are fine, then put the alarm in the room to rest.


Bush: He (Putin) was wily. He wouldn’t tip his hand.

Bush: I’ll tip mine. I’ll sprint to the finish line, and then you’ll find me in Crawford.

I'll sleep better tonight.

11. Man, we used to have the Soviet Union
Now there was a fucking enemy to be reckoned with! Nukes up the wazoo, an army in the tens of millions, and a land mass bigger than some continents. Now we have to settle for Chimpy's version of World War III, which is apparently in danger of starting because Iran has the knowledge (not the actual possession, mind you) of building nuc-u-lar weapons.

Under Bush, the U.S. has become such a pussy country, scared down to its soaking underwear of a third-rate nation with a lunatic, powerless president.

12. Yeah, what exactly is the secret "knowledge" of making a nuke?
It's beyond me, and I'm sure it's not a simple thing, but isn't the "knowledge" of how to do it fairly accessible? I thought the problem was getting the right material, not "knowing" how to build it.
