Presidential News Conference this morning at 9:45 in Rose Garden

[Philosoraptor]

[magellan]

1. Woopee

Oh too bad, I'll be asleep.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

3. Thanks for the heads up. I'll make sure I'm out of the house

by then running my errands and grocery shopping.

[flordehinojos]

6. i read the intro to your post and had to laugh ... a nervous kind of laugh

because, in my mind, it illustrates the desperation sooooooooo maaaaaaaany of us feel at the little shit who thinks he is emperor and whose father's money and power has bought him the invasion and occupation of our white house along with that of iraq.

[wordpix2]

49. suggested Iraq set up oil "royalty trust like the state of Alaska." That's

OUR oil and that trust should be for all Americans, not just Alaskans, since WE own the land and not just Alaskans.

What a friggin moron.

[cynatnite]

2. News conference as in...he's actually taking questions from the press?

Not a 'short announcement' then a hasty exit?

[Philosoraptor]

4. I hope so, that's when he's at his comic best.

[havocmom]

18. Let's hope he gets "Boltoned"

:evilgrin:

[flordehinojos]

5. is the little shit going to declare iraq the 51st USA state?

}( :mad: :argh: :nuke: :banghead:

[wicket]

7. I wish someone would ask him about this:

http://www.americanpolitics.com/20060606McConnell.html

:evilgrin:

[Botany]

8. I wonder how the roses are doing?

the climbers o.k.?

the tea roses still have nice flowers but are a pain in the ass?

any shrub roses (real type .... no joke)?

Jap Beetle or Black Spot?

as far as what that unelected liar is going to say .... same old crap
Iraq = victory (someday)
Katrina aftermath = things are doing swell
and may God Bless America

[lynne]

9. From a gardener's point of view -

- pretty much all tea roses, I don't recollect seeing any shrub roses there. Too early here for Jap Beetles. Doubt there's black spot now as we've hardly had any rain or humidity, probably will get that in mid-July.

[Philosoraptor]

10. He'll focus on the good news, but warn that tough days lie ahead.

And he'll take questions from reporters!

[Virginia Dare]

11. I will have my B.P. medicine handy, thanks....n/t

[underpants]

12. Tony and Dan are ready!

[tanyev]

13. They're probably still a little green around the gills today.

[Philosoraptor]

14. They clearly don't seem to enjoy playing soldier.

[Philosoraptor]

15. 5 MINUTE WARNING

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

16. Just about ready to head out. I'll check back in a couple of hours.

[bdamomma]

17. Oh, bushie is reallly trying to get brownie points isn't he???

[Philosoraptor]

19. I have just returned from Baghdad, and I was Inspired.

[Philosoraptor]

20. The terrorists are vulnerable. He's grinning already.

[Ilsa]

21. I guess this is Thread 1.

He speaks as if he spread his wings and flew there with no assistance. He has that smug look.

[bdamomma]

50. bush is basking in his true arrogance and ignorance

and saying to all of us again screw you all.

[Philosoraptor]

22. operation together forward, he means "operation forward together"

[Philosoraptor]

23. STRICT WEAPONS BAN IN BAGHDAD

[Ilsa]

24. Zarqawi wasn't brought to justice. He was executed, Numbnuts.

I'm glad he's dead and in Hell, but that was an execution.

[Philosoraptor]

25. He hasn't Mentioned OSAMA

[Philosoraptor]

26. I reminded the govt. that that oil belongs to the Iraqi people

[Ilsa]

27. He sounds like a desperate fruit salesman with a year-old inventory.

[Philosoraptor]

28. Even though he's reading it from teleprompters he's angry already

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

35. Angry before the questions even started

too funny, :rofl:

[havocmom]

32. Oh no! Did he hand off nuke technology for mangoes again?

Havocdad wants to know when the cretin will return to Ireland. He's hoping for a better trade, say nuke tech for good whiskey.

[Ilsa]

53. Ya know, that might be worthwhile, especially if we can get him*

to continually stay in a state of inebriation and falling down drunk asleep.

[havocmom]

68. Was thinking about the abundance of mangoes even in my tiny town

and the dropping price for the horrible stuff. If we are gonna get a glut of something in our marketplace, may as well be something GOOD!

[Ilsa]

29. Hahahaha! My local cable CNN just cut him off and started running

local trashy commercials with guys screaming into their mics!

[Philosoraptor]

30. We're closer to completing our mission

[Philosoraptor]

31. Troop drawdown? it's not gonna happen till violence goes down

[Sydnie]

33. Excuse me while I have a primal scream

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (breath)
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR (breath)
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG (breath)
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH (breath)


OK, now I can carry on.


Listening to this idiot does that to me, every time.

[Philosoraptor]

34. there's no rules o' war---you can't expect 0 violence--smirk smirk

[Philosoraptor]

36. Gitmo Suicides, Abu Ghraib: he's laughing again

[Philosoraptor]

37. I WISH I could close Gitmo---

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

38. then giggles. good lord nt

[WinkyDink]

41. HE'S SUCH AN EFFING LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!!

"These people will have trials. They were picked up on the battlefield." O. M. G.
WHY is this man still ALIVE???????????????????

"Our society is a transparent society."

[cynatnite]

42. He smiles whenever he talks about torture and war...

Whenever I see that, I think to myself...this guy is batshit crazy. What kind of nutjob talks about war and torture with a smile on his face? :shrug:

[bdamomma]

58. bush is purely psychotic

how much longer are we going to stand for this, I can't watch him I was screaming at the TV yesterday, I hate being played a fool, geez, when will challenge this jerk? sorry just my rant.

[Chimichurri]

156. a sadistic sociopath who gets off on other people's suffering.

Shock & Awe
Abu Graib
Katrina
Secret torture prisons in Eastern Europe
Zarqawi's dead bloody face in a gargantuan custom-made frame for all to gawk at (granted he was a bad guy but I don't enjoy seeing anyone's dead body)

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

39. there's a 5 sec delay between c-span3 and cnn

and their coverage.

[Philosoraptor]

40. he STILL can't pronounce Abu Ghraib

[leftchick]

44. what can he pronounce correctly?

terra? nukular? he is a fucking loser.

[Philosoraptor]

43. When the questions ALMOST asked, he goes, "MM" "MHM" like an ape

[Philosoraptor]

45. He's soooo funny...not

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

51. He was never taught that

"Familiarly breeds contempt"
He tries to butter up these reporters when he calls on them. Embarrassing.

[WinkyDink]

46. In the wake of the FEMA $$ news, IDIOT mentions "spending

the people's money wisely."

Also---HE IS DESPERATE. THAT'S WHY HE IS HORSING AROUND WITH THE REPORTERS.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

57. This is weird, the flirting w/ reporters today.

[ShortnFiery]

60. How can he say, "There's a sense of hope" through

clenched teeth? :shrug:

Tyranny to Freedom! Such B.S.

[hatrack]

47. 15-odd minutes and counting - has he said ANYTHING yet?

:shrug:

[Philosoraptor]

48. I'm convinced he's repeating words from a wire.

It's my favorite C Theory.

[wordpix2]

52. Saddam "wrecked the infrastructure" of Iraq. Huh? What about dimson?

[Philosoraptor]

56. He killed a lotta people.

[WinkyDink]

55. Yeah---he said one reporter was pretty good for a substitute.

Otherwise, he's said "ta", "reconize", "terra", "'preshiate', and "Roger, Roger. Heh."

Plus, he's continually condescending to the Iraqi leadership. He's 'impressed by the sophistication" of their discussions.

He is lying about Saddam's "wrecking the infra-structure". and concerned about "revenge based on the past". THAT? Is Bush Projection 101.

Just very gay-ly complimented some reporter's "scarf; what do you call that thing?" OHMYGODHE'SSUCHAPSYCHOPATHICMORON.

[Philosoraptor]

54. troop levels? he's dodged this question about 5 times now

stand up stand down bla bla

[Sydnie]

59. the "Hokey Pokey" of war continues!

Stand Up, Stand Down, Right Foot in Mouth ....


Now if we could only stop the dance!

[wordpix2]

61. going to meet with "the Peace Institute" because it's important to get

advice.

Yeah, now that Bubble Boy and his "expert" chickenhawks have fucked up for 3 yrs., he's reaching out for advice.

[wordpix2]

63. "our philosophy is forward looking and we have a record to run on."

:rofl:

[wordpix2]

78. Dems will "raise your taxes"---what about the $10 trillion debt * has

caused? :puke:

[ShortnFiery]

64. Someone inform * that he was NOT re-elected ...

Do you think our Crack White House Press Corps has the guts to take him on in any way?

Nothing as of yet. :(

[bdamomma]

81. he's lying he doesn't take advice from anyone who has

different beliefs than him. No dissent allowed.

[Philosoraptor]

62. are you afraid republicans will lose this november?

some folks thought i woudn't get re elected, but i did

[bdamomma]

83. he said that

what a smug ass he is, geez, I would be yelling/screaming at the TV for that, he stole the election, what a #################????!!!! he is. I hate him.

[Philosoraptor]

65. it'll endanger our country to pull outta iraq--

[ShortnFiery]

70. "it's a part of the global war on terra" ...

"it's a theater" No *, we're tired of your bogus "theater" and another glib plug for permanent tax cuts for the investor classes. :puke:

[titoresque]

66. "It's a theatre in the global war on terror"

speaking of Iraq.

[woo me with science]

152. He's proud to know the alternate meaning of "theater,"

although maybe he was thinking of those cool costumes and plastic turkey props.

[Philosoraptor]

67. do you approve of Rove's conduct--does he owe an apology?

[Philosoraptor]

69. are there ever moments of doubt?

[NightOwwl]

71. Well doesn't he look smug.

Had the chickenshit coward left the Green Zone for 5 minutes, he might not be smirking quite so much.

[titoresque]

72. This is sickening!

How many times do we need to see this SAME press conference? These fuckers ask the same pre-approved questions, and the Serial Killer gives the same fucking answers! For Christ sake........GET A NEW SCRIPT!!!!!

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

73. "It's up to them , It's up to them to win in Iraq" Gonna pin this mess

on Iraq itself.

[wordpix2]

86. "troop levels up to Gen. Casey in consultation with Iraqi gov"

Der Leader won't commit an answer about troop levels.

[WinkyDink]

74. These reporters are LILY-LIVERED CHICKEN-S***S!!

Not ONE tough question getting to the lies, the corruption, the evilness of the Iraqi slaughters.

"DEATH AFFECTS MY WAY OF THINKING." Yes, it does, doesn't it? ANOTHER example of Bush speaking HIS TRUTH.

"I want to repeat: Iraq is not the only part of this war." Is he trying to set us up for Iran? Another 9/11?

[ShortnFiery]

80. He takes NO responsibility for Abu Garib nor any other FAILURE

of Leadership that goes to the top. When they peg The Geneva Conventions as "quaint" what the hell do you expect from the line troops.

Failure of leadership in Iraq. NOT the fault of the line troops but of * and Rumsfeld, etc.

[Philosoraptor]

75. the enemy has an advantage, they can get on our t.v. screens everyday

[Philosoraptor]

76. death effects my way o' thinkin'

[Philosoraptor]

79. he's pissed now--decisions i make pertekt amerkuns--

[bdamomma]

77. I can't watch him

thanks for the re cap, again, he goes over the same talking points, he is probably estatic that rove got off, that is his brain you know.

[Philosoraptor]

82. U.S. troop levels? is the tide truly turning? Even after Zarqawi?

[Philosoraptor]

84. he's dodging it AGAIN--it's up to gen. casey

[bdamomma]

97. bush will never admit his mistakes

Never ever, he will keep putting the blame on others but not himself. He is a bastard.

read this interview, this is what we are dealing with.


http://www.larouchepub.com/other/interviews/2006/3314justin_frank.html

[Philosoraptor]

85. i was raised in the desert so sometimes it's hard to see a tide turn

hilarious

[wordpix2]

92. I missed that---he said that? Classic Bushism

[Philosoraptor]

96. actual quote, transcript later

[Sydnie]

93. Followed by "Did I say those words?"

:wtf:

My son (sho is graduating from high school on Thursday YEAH) is listening in another room. He just came in and asked if I was really listening to this. I said yeah. He said, "It sounds really dumb to me". I agreed with him.

And I thought this particular child was not paying any attention to the current happenings ... glad to see that I was mistaken. He can see it after all.

[wordpix2]

146. I feel another poem based on Bush phrases coming on

Search
Political Humor
Political Jokes


This following poem is composed entirely of actual quotes from George W. Bush.

Make the Pie Higher

I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen
And uncertainty
And potential mental losses.

Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the internet
Become more few?
How many hands have I shaked?

They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish
Can coexist.

Families is where our nation finds hope
Where our wings take dream.
Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher!
Make the pie higher!

[ShortnFiery]

87. Bush - "Those poor dumb brown people need The Empire to help"

:sarcasm:

Jerk! No, the Iraqis are smart enough to protect THEIR, yes THEIR COUNTRY!

We are NOT their masters. This sickens me - our belief that only America can help other countries find THEIR balance. :grr:

[Ilsa]

101. Shrub spoke of how surprised he was to hear them work so

intelligently on their plans for their country. He must think everyone who didn't get into Harvard on a legacy is retarded or something.

[Philosoraptor]

88. whoever said there's a tide turning is...never mind...actual quote

[Philosoraptor]

89. i'm a high value target for some---

[Philosoraptor]

91. to the question about him dropping in on malaki unannounced

[ShortnFiery]

Bush - "Iraq's a dangerous place!"

Hell, why don't you ask the parents of line troops stationed there?

What a national embarrassment. Oh, please make him stop? Rove? Anyone? Anyone? :puke:

[wordpix2]

90. re: 5 min. notice to Maliki: "I'm a high security target...I'm not going

to put our gov. at risk"

[Philosoraptor]

95. oh brother--

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

99. "It's Hot over there!"

lol

[Philosoraptor]

102. those people need air conditioning...how bout electricity idiot?

[goclark]

145. Did he actually say "It's hot over there?"

Please tell me he did say something that dumb!

[bdamomma]

107. a high security target

he said that????? he is a sick bastard isn't he??? yea, he is a target alright.

[dave29]

108. so, Bush admits to being high

finally.

[Jeanette in FL]

112. This needs to be the sound bite for the day

Especially "Iraq's is a dangerous place".

Elaine: What kind of signal does it send to the Iraqi people that your admin. told the government only 5 minutes before your arrival.

President: It's a security concern because I'm a high value target for some. American people have to know that I take precautions somewhere. I won't put our goverment at risk. A lot of people didn't know about it. Half my cabinet didn't know about it. Iraq's is a dangerous place and if there was ample notification that I was coming it would have given someone a chance to plan and we don't want to take that risk. The PM was happy to see me and I was happy to see him, but you should expect a president to take precautions in the US. I take precautions in the US.

[Rose Siding]

147. LOL! "Am people have to know I take precautions somewhere"

Starting (and ending) with ME ME ME

[titoresque]

94. Yeah a plan!!!!!!

WE NEED SOMEONE TO MAKE A PLAN!!! ;)

[Philosoraptor]

98. timetable? uh uh aahhh, giggle, chuckle...it's gonna take awhile

[wordpix2]

100. "measure progress...get electricity running...it's hot over there!"

[ShortnFiery]

103. There's an "Electricity Minister" ... huh?

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

104. laughing while near tears here.

[Ilsa]

105. Georgies' Great and Expensive Thrill Ride in the cockpit

to Baghdad. Geez, I'd rather have Peewee Herman for a president.

[ShortnFiery]

113. I'm pinching myself. Is THIS our President?

I can't believe that we continue on with THIS shill of a MAN in charge of Our Country. He's clearly incompetent. Some thing's amiss with his thought process. No joke. IMO, something is not right with him ... different, and less well-spoken than even 2004. :scared:

[Ilsa]

Right, "pardner". Perfect example of arrested development. eom

[titoresque]

106. I think he just got a woody

"Tyrants have interst'n ways of suppressing dissent"

[Philosoraptor]

109. the prime minister was an articulate person--i was impressed

[PCIntern]

110. My goodness,

I recall my second grade teacher using this tone of voice. We were embarassed back then...we didn't need to be spoken to like this when we were seven years old.
We were much more sophisticated even in 1960...

Also, she didn't DROP HER G'S AT THE END OF A WORD, OR SAID 'YA'...

He sure is manic today...

[Philosoraptor]

111. do you see a parallel between iraq and vietnam?--NO!

[NYC Liberal]

114. "You gonna ask that question with those shades on?"

Hehhehe...heh. :eyes:

[Ilsa]

132. And total avoidance of the reporter's question. eom

[NYC Liberal]

143. Of course. That's always a given with Bush, isn't it?

[Rose Siding]

149. You're kidding. Nothing more important to him in that moment I guess

:banghead:

[Poiuyt]

157. The reporter was wearing sunglasses because he was blind

http://www.rawstory.com/news/2006/Bush_Wallsten_0614.html

[Philosoraptor]

115. karl rove: do you have any work to rebuild credibility?

can't talk about it, on going trial, serious bizness, move forward

[bdamomma]

116. is he still talking if you want to call it that

well well, uncle karl has dimwit out there, to get those approval ratings up, now is the American public going to bite? I will :puke: if they believe this BS.

Again this saying comes to mind: "Americans are biggest BS'ers and the easiest to BS".

[w8liftinglady]

120. if THIS impresses america,then they desreve this dipshit.

[Philosoraptor]

117. Do you think people are turned off by iraq?

i look forward to the debate, but we're not pulling out cause the world will be more dangerous.

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

and America would be at risk.

He said this three times today.

[w8liftinglady]

118. watching while I was working out-he DOES get the adrenalin up

what a fucking moron.

[ShortnFiery]

124. Holy Shit! Another tirade of spewing "September 11th" repeatedly!

That has nothing to do with Iraq. It is NOT our Country nor OUR Objective. :puke:

[Philosoraptor]

119. the lessons learned from sept. 11th--i learned those lessons

[w8liftinglady]

122. he obviously hasn't learned when to shut up

[Philosoraptor]

125. ah mo make mah decisions based on pertektin' amurka

he's pissed again. if we don't succeed, we won't be safe.

[titoresque]

121. Sept. 11th!!!!!!!!!!! Remember?!

[Sydnie]

123. BINGO! He took a long time this time, but he got there! n/t

[Ilsa]

126. Someone is going to come grab him in a minute to "call him away"

to something important before he goes red in the face. He is getting really testy.

[dogday]

127. Don't force my hand

politics will not play a part in my decision making.. In other-words, I don't care what the people want or what they think, I am the decider....

[wordpix2]

128. "progress [in Iraq] is hard to see"

[ShortnFiery]

129. He's losing his grip right before our eyes!!! n/t

[w8liftinglady]

130. how many martinis/speedballs did he have before this?

[Philosoraptor]

138. meth maybe? they give it our soldiers

[NYC Liberal]

131. He's YELLING now! What a petulant baby.

"You think politics will move my hand. IT WON'T!!! Waaaaaaaaah!"

[Philosoraptor]

133. jeez george get a grip

[bdamomma]

150. he will have a meltdown some day hope its soon

when he acts like that shows how unstable he is. very dangerous indeed, I wish they would have on a psychiatric team to assess him when he speaks.

[Philosoraptor]

commentator: he was FIESTY--did i spell it right?

[shanti]

155. and the murkins

will think that's a GOOD thing :eyes:

[titoresque]

134. "A first hand feel for how these people are thinking"

TRY DRIVING DOWN THE STREET WITHOUT YOUR ARMORED VEHICLES ASSHOLE! GET THE TRUE FEEL FOR HOW THEY THINK!!!!

[dogday]

135. Now for the pundits to talk up

the right and the President... Everything is roses they say :sarcasm:

[wordpix2]

139. on MSNBC, talking about rationale for war now morphed into setting up

secure Iraqi gov.

Uh, I remember when it was WMD, then getting rid of Saddam, then elections.

[wordpix2]

140. Tweety on now, MSNBC

[wordpix2]

141. says * like Giuliani on 911 or Winston Churchill (!)

[Philosoraptor]

142. he was like a guliani or a winston churchill--very impressive

[wordpix2]

144. "job now is security in Iraq---help them protect oil and Baghdad, provide

electricity---goals have come way down."

[Ilsa]

136. Bush speaks to the public as if we are all a bunch of fifth graders on a

baseball team, about "desire" and "will" and "leadership". Like choosing a special word is going to change public opinion.

[Cha]

148. Cause that's the way

his handlers speak to him..he just spits it out like he's programmed.

[bdamomma]

151. I hope it doesn't change public opinion

please, I hope the sleepy population does not give in to this BS.

[titoresque]

137. I think a shower is in order after that mind fuck!

:puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke:

[lonestarnot]
