11. Maybe she's a sellout Netvocate..........
Remember the well-dressed, recently made homeless by Hurricane Katrina, black sisters that were the first to greet * when he made his Katrina tour stop in Mississippi?

Those young ladies turned out to be actresses in the US on vacation from some other country who got the opportunity to make some extra cash doing a photo-op with the pretzeldent.

Maybe this lady got the chance to make some extra cash, too!

26. I merely asked you to elaborate. without context I was unsure of your
point.

I don't enough about her actions from that still photo to disagree or agree. That's why I asked you why you said you respected her. I didn't know if that meant you knew who she was, and she had done some great things in her life, I didn't know if she had said something that spoke truth to power before this photo, I didn't know if you respected her because she allowed herself to be touched by the president, I didn't know if you respected her for attending at all and sitting through the speech....

there are a lot of possibilities. "I respect her" does not pin down any of those possibilities for me enough to understand your post.

I would point out I tried to ascertain your opinion, instead of insinuating one for you.

28. I understand.
I was a bit skeptical on what you were getting at, and for that I apologize.

I'm being a bit defensive today for some reason. Thanks for clarifying it and again, I'm sorry for assuming the worst.

40. Putting ones arms around someone in that manner goes far
beyond what I'd call "civility".

6. She is probably just getting him close enough so he will have to listen
to what she has to say. She won't give him the opportunity to just walk away.

15. Here's the transcript of what was being said:


LADY: I know I've only got a second, so I'm going to tell you one thing and I expect you to get it.

BUSH: Lady, I've got to go...

LADY: I am sick of your shit, George. If I were your Mother I'd have kicked your rear end from here to where the Sun don't shine for what you've done as President.

BUSH: Man are you strong, I'm just doin' what I haff ta do, Lady...

LADY: Don't you give me that Bullshit, I know better!

BUSH: The Secret Service Agents are coming...this was just supposed to be a photo op...you really aren't supposed to be talking to me...

LADY: I've seen turds being flushed down the john that were smarter than you. Now get outta here - we see you for what you really are!

Bush had an underwear change shortly afterward, and finally got some of the color back in his face after enjoying a stiff drink.

33. She's NOT smiling -
looks to me like she wants to give him a piece of her mind - and is making sure he can't get away before she's done.

38. Bush is such an ass
All he could relate to was poor and drug addicted , this must be how he see's all blacks . While she had the chance she should have snapped his fool neck.

41. sure was a lot of touching at that meeting
did he kiss her or other women? I don't understand kissing and hugging as greeting unless it is family and even then maybe.
