Bush speech hand gestures to be used in torture rooms.

[Neshanic]

Tapes of Bush without sound will be circulated to all torture contractors for use in plying information from prisoners. The Swiss are furious that such a mesmerizing and painfull method will be used.

1. See I thought it was just me who noticed

Selling it with the pseudo-haimish "jazz hands". It was making me insane. I think it's an excellent torture device.

2. With sound included it would be even more brutal

Subjecting prisoners to a silent flick of a * speech, as inhumane as it might seem, would likely reflect some sort of compromise with Sen. McCain. Any such method inclusive of sound (actual words from *)would be a clear violation of Geneva Convention rules.

3. I think it was a tribute to Pat Morita - "Wax on, Wax off"

I definitely feel like I got "waxed off".

9. shame I missed it

I've been suspecting for a long time that the gestures described as "patting his invisible dog" are actually asterixis, or flapping tremors, a sign of severe liver involvement in end stage alcoholism.

The only time I've ever tuned in with the sound of, he's been hidden behind an ever taller podium.

10. Bingo! I just posted this on another similar thread. Asterixis, or

"liver flap" or "flapping tremor"...liver cirrhosis.

4. He looked like a shill for an infomercial.

A crazy Mike Levey sweater would've completed the effect.

5. And then that super-shiny desk reflected the hands even more.

Who the f#%k has a desk like that?


When can I have a real president?

6. Remember that house with Christmas lights set to "Wizards In Winter"?

I'm referring to the one where the decoration lights turn on and off in time to that incredible piece of music by Trans-Siberian Orchestra. No one could figure out if it was real or not.

Someone should set bush's hands to music. Or, rather, set the music in synchronization to bush's hand movements. I think it would be hysterical.

[SharonAnn]

7. Yes it was real. The house is in Mason, Ohio.

[Straight Shooter]

8. Amazing.

I wonder if this guy is a Democrat and would be willing to synchronize bush's hands to music. :)

[Leopolds Ghost]

11. Ahh, but can Bush defend against the 1,000 deadly styles of RUMSFELD?
