Is it possible that the powers that be in the White House are setting W up as the fall guy so as to deflect attention from their own deep shit? It just seems like the bill is going to come due and they know it.
If he was being coached or fed lines, whoever was responsible did a pretty lame job and I had to wonder whether it was being done on purpose? :tinfoilhat:

1. I think that they're at something of a loss. |
|
They can't understand what happened to his "mandate." Guess Rove forgot that it was stolen.

I totally think that * will end up being the fall guy for the guys who are really running the country and this whole horrid scenario right now. I don't think they wanted to work with him. I don't think they wanted him to be "their guy", but he was the only choice at the time. So, now that they've found out just how bad of a performer he is, they know they need to dump him and fast. However, they can't just DUMP him, you know? They've put too much into his whole persona. But, I think they'd like to and they will get rid of him sooner or later.
However, I also think that they really just aren't as good as they think they are. They can't get * to be presidential. They can't make him seem like anything more than a smirking moron, because that's his top level-- that's the best he can be. So, I think they would prefer it at this point, if he could seem to be on top of things, but as manipulative and evil as they are, they just can't do anything else with him.

"...the guys who are really running the country ..."
In other words, they use his position now to their advantage to the extent that they can, and in 2008, regardless of who is elected, that person will be bought and paid for and they'll just keep going.
Business as usual.

3. Or, do we wear tinfoil hats and think he did horribly? |
|
I think he did horribly, and the only talking head I heard was Stepanopolis (had to be him, eh?) saying he thought the blivet sounded rational. :wtf: Haven't heard anyone say anything else yet. But I have my opinion, and I'm sticking to it! And I just don't see the WH setting him up. He's the one who can do no wrong, doncha know?!

4. Going through the motions |
|
There is never a clear rational plan, just a readiness to move on to the next crime and keep smiling. You should be very worried what will be coming next to enable these vague lazy tyrants to write blank bills to be filled in at their later discretion, and oh, yes, war, bloody war for profit.
In fact, if they could engineer something to make it look like the courageous war(or something that sounds like war anyway) pResident has turned things around by surfing on our terror and pain it would make all these nonchalant efforts to distract people waking up to the anger and horror logical.
And how will we REALLY cope with a great physical shot like 911? Like it is being orchestrated and not being prevented from being manipulated? The DLC simply expects to cave in before the first flag is waved for false patriotism over the next batch of Bush victims.

5. This whole debacle seems very illogical.... |
|
which makes me wonder what i'm not seeing. They know he sucks with anything but adoring subjects. This was pretty spur of the moment, and it seems to me an offensive play....getting out in front of something, and making this spectacle the 'news', while the real 'news' dies on the vine.

9. The so called Republican Party can be hurt by this |

brain damaged jerk-off. Unless another terrorist attack occurs in Amerika '06 may provide a new balance of power in Congress.

10. I was driving and listened on the radio |
|
There were obvious gaps maybe not apparent to TV viewers where he was at a loss of words, well, moreso then usual. When he did speak it was the same old shit he's been saying over and over, ad nausium.
The idjut is not capable of an original thought.

11. Well, I think the neo-con picture is bigger than **s presidency, |
|
so you could be right. They are looking at the long-term, relatively speaking. And he is sooooo bad, something is amiss.
I can't even believe he was being fed lines - he was so incoherent, unless you're right and they are sabotaging him.
Hmmmm....
