Bush to give historic address to conservative group (CPAC)
Source: WashTimes

President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney will make history next week when they address the 35th annual Conservative Political Action Conference.

It will be the first time in 35 years that both the president and vice president have addressed the conference in person in the same year.

It also marks the first time that Mr. Bush will make a personal appearance at CPAC since he became president. In the past, he has sent videotaped greetings.

Mr. Cheney already had agreed to speak when CPAC organizers were surprised by a call from the White House saying the president also would like a chance to appear.

...

"We are pleased to welcome him," Mr. Keene said. "Conservatives have a very mixed view of George W. Bush. He is personally popular with them, but many of them also are deeply disappointed with some of the results of his administration."

1. Standing there and blithering does not a speech make.
Of course, to the RWers, any grunt coming out of his mouth is treated as the very utterances of god.

3. "deeply disappointed with some of the results?"
Good Lord, not enough dead and mutilated American soldiers? Too few murdered Iraqis? Not enough income distribution from the bottom to the top? What could they possibly want that B*shit hasn't given them, or tried to? :crazy: :wtf:

4. They just keep supporting a dolt who has driven the country into a dead end.
What can you say about conservatives that have their heads in the sand.

That's a pretty pathetic excuse for an "historical" event.

10. The only thing historic
about that event will be that they can cram that many assholes in one room at the same time.

15. Historic - that would be, umm - telling the Truth? - - - ain't gonna happen
.
.
.

Bush is just having a heyday now, he ain't worried about reelection, and don't give a shit about the party, people, country - he's outta there in less than a year

George is now more dangerous than ever

He ain't got nothing to lose

Think about it

28. oh yes he is very dangerous now, his agenda is put in place.
and he continues to be lord pissypants if he doesn't get his way, he needs to be arrested, he has many mental disorders, unresolved and not treated, and we are paying dearly for that.

16. Running out of supportive audiences, I see.
Actually, this could be interesting. Dubya and Dick are crazy paranoid and have insane amounts of security. I wonder how many CPACers will get bumped from the event cause they're considered a threat?

19. It's not like either of them have anything more important to do
So, what the hell?

I wonder if any reporter will have the bad taste and the temerity to ask why Bush contacted CPAC about opening a spot on their schedule, rather than vice versa? What am I saying? Of course not.

22. Interesting, usually the VP and Pres arent in the same location
At the same time, you know, for security. Unless its damn good security (SOTU, inauguration, etc). Cant even imagine the body probing required to get into that event. Wide stance anyone? :)
