Ape president, live press conference this morning!
Will he take difficult to understand questions? Will he be extremely lethargic and seemingly underwater like he was at Friday's short press conference?

What lies will he read, and what rambling incoherent answers will he repeat from his live feed ear piece?

I believe it's in about an hour, 9 a.m. central.

1. He's probably going to comment on the Ramsey murder case.
Either that or declare war on Iran and every other Muslim nation.

6. "Mr. President, do you think it's appropriate that John Mark Karr
got to eat prawns and pate on his flight back to the US?"

4. Marshal law...
Things are sucking so bad for the 'Pukes that Marshal law may be only recourse to keep power. Look for Halliburton to get no-bid contract to supervise elections.

9. he only has about ten minutes to spare apparently.
I imagine he will be testy and uncomfortable, and before the questions are finished being asked he will grunt, like an ape, "Mmm"

I doubt he'll have much to say about New Orleans with such a short window.

17. That's easy. Bodies are still being found because FEMA sucks
and the billions of $$ we contributed voluntarily, and the feds sent on our behalf, are....where?????

12. I Doubt Very Much That The Idiot Will Speak For An Hour
The most he seems to be able to rattle out at a sitting runs right around 20 minutes. Any more than that and it gets so bad even the NASCAR types can't figure out what he's babbling about.

22. My god, the man is like a stuck record. And is he pissed. Good, good, good
He's got his panties in a wad because the failed states in the Middle East don't recognize the reformers. He is a stupid, fucking moran that is throwing a temper tantrum on a Monday morning. Guess his August vacation isn't going very well. He sees the challenge and he is staying there and forcing the democracy down their damn throats (my paraphrasing).

Same inane questions, same inane answers. These people are co-dependent. He never answers anything, just parrots the same tired points and the reporters quickly scribble it down like they have never heard it all before.

34. No, Pres. Simple, the "root cause" is not Hezbollah, it is the occupation!
Edited on Mon Aug-21-06 09:34 AM by flpoljunkie
No White House press person seems to have the guts to call him on this. And no, Israel was not attacked. Soldiers were abducted. as has happened before on both sides, and Israel proceeded to bomb Beirut's infrastrcuture. It was not until the second day of Israel's bombing of Lebanon that Hezbollah started "lobbing" rockets into Haifa.

Our country cannnot seem to tell the truth about this. You get more truth from the Israeli newspaper Haaretz than from our media and our compromised politicians of both parties. There will be never be an end to the chaos in the Middle East if there is no peace agreement which ends Israel's occupation and brings about the two sovereign states, living side by side. so often touted by President Simple.

37. What's with the lisp? Is that the Jack Daniels this early

in the morning?


He is sooooo stupid and talks down to his audience,he must be urged to "retire."
Keeps saying it will not happen that we leave Iraq "As Long As I Am President."

" War Is Not A Time Of Joy."

Yet, " Sometimes I'm Happy."

Speeds up. Slows down. Raises his voice. And that "out of breath" thing. I don't know if that's anxiety...probably so. But it's creeeepy! :scared:

I was in the kitchen just now, far from the television, and I could still hear him shouting and ranting like Mussolini on a balcony.

I could hear him casting about in desperation and yelling about our 'friends and allies' and all I could think of was how his arrogance and stupidity alienated almost all of our friends and allies. We're in real trouble, kids, thanks to this man's incompetence.

He's actually getting some reasonble questions instead of the softballs they usually toss him.

and he's trying to cobble weasal words to the effect that there is a debate that needs to be had about when to leave Iraq. "Leaving before the job is done would be a disaster." Idiot doesn't seem to realize that it IS a disaster now.

I just got a phone call and missed a whole chunk of this.

He's yelling again. My god, folks! There is no substance to any of his utterances. terra. democracy. understand. terra.

What? "peroration". They taught him a new word.

HOW CAN THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THINK THIS DOOFUS HAS ANYTHING IMPORTANT TO SAY??

And all that yukking it up. Such fun! Why do the press people laugh at his jokes?

First he conflated Iraq with 911. Some reporter asked what Iraq had to do with 911. He said nothing. What a douchbag!

And why all this hilarity?? Huh?

47. President Simple: " If we withdraw, the enemy will follow us here."
We are "spreading liberty" in the Middle East--part of his "freedom agenda"--as he described it. What we are "spreading" is chaos, death, destruction and what we are engendering is more hatred of our country and more terrorists and terrorists' sympathizers.
