Famous liberal myth #104...George Bush read "My Pet Goat" while America was under attack... |

THIS IS NOT TRUE!
George Bush actually read "The Pet Goat," while ignoring the attack on America. Liberals often get the title wrong.

5. But this myth is one of the reasons Michael Moore does not hold much credibility as a documentarist. |
|
He purposefully changed the title of the book for Fahrenheit 911 in order to make the situation sound more ridiculous. The situation was already ridiculous enough without Michael Moore's embellishments.

12. Why, that's no different to what Breitbart does |
|
Editing a video to make it look as though an ACORN official was helping run a prostitution ring, changing a definite article into a personal pronoun, what's the difference?:sarcasm:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WztB6HzXxI">The teacher was thumping her book one word at a time (I think) as they read.

9. I just wish I had been there to smack him with a ball of Playdoh. |
|
It would have been worth getting gunned down by Secret Service....almost. I might have missed though, Dubya proved he's somewhat agile by dodging shoes pretty well.

14. People often castigate Bush for |
|
continuing to read to the children after the 9/11 attack. They should not do this. Bush had already been briefed by Dick Cheney well before the attack. When it came he already knew what to do.

15. Wasn't he holding the book upside down? |
|
If so, it wouldn't be correct to say that he read anything, regardless of the title.
