oh please - The President as Average Joe...
Trying to Boost Support, Bush Brings Banter to the People

'Washington Post Staff Writer
Sunday, April 2, 2006; Page A04

President Bush was taking questions from an audience the other day when he was asked about the immigration debate raging in Washington.

"It's obviously topic du jour ," he said.

The audience laughed at the famously Francophobic Texan's faux accent

"Pretty fancy, huh?" Bush asked, mocking himself. "Topic du jour ?"

The audience laughed again.

"I don't want to ruin the image," he added conspiratorially.'

2. Only a hand picked audience full of bushbots......
would find humor in that. Every time monkey-boy speaks the "applause" sign comes on and the bushbots go wild. It must be getting harder and harder to find an audience that will swallow everything the chimp says. Maybe they bus the same crowd around the country now so they don't have to keep coming up with a new one. It wouldn't surprise me, everything else they do is a sham.

12. I think P.J. O'Roark said it best...
... "Why would I vote for president, someone that I would not let sit at my lunch table in high school?"
