* is one seriously out of touch dude.

[Fuzz]

That press conference was painful. Out of touch, arrogant and a little nuts.

Sad state of affairs. :(

5. He said he was "conscience" of who is listening to him

He told the Iranians that their leader is isolating them from the world with his policies ( I was hoping the press would point out that he was doing the same thing), he seemed a little hurt that the "non-binding" resolution against the war was still going forward, he declined to discuss the Libby trial, he babbled on about his decision for a surge .. He said he was certain that the Iranian KUDS or CUDS were providing bad weapons to the insurgents.. a lot of deja vu regarding those bad bad Iranians.... just like with those bad bad Iraqis ( edited for typos)

6. maybe check in lbn or on google. i slept through most of it

but i hear he is giving permission for congress to do that little non-binding resolution. permission? fuck him!

"our troops are counting on the elected leaders in washington dc to provide them with what they need to complete their mission."

cough.

our troops are counting on us to bring them home.

8. He frequently referred to the fact that the Senate unanimously voted

in favor of General Petraeus. Said it was contradictory to be voting on nonbinding resolution in light of the vote in favor of Petraeus. Pretty much acceded that resolution would pass. Hoped the nonbinding resolution would not lead to a binding one which would undermine the troops. He repeatedly used "gonna support the troops, whatever it takes." Ominous references to Iran, as in "we know the Quds (sp) are part of the Iranian gov, but we don't know if the top level in Iran is behind it." When pressed would not back off Iran--"gonna support the troops, whatever it takes." Will not dialogue with Iran until they show drawdown of nuclear weapons. Disagrees with John Bolton's assessment of N. Korea deal.


Smirked a lot.......Made me loathe him more it that's possible.

9. Oh yeah and "Money trumps peace." Reference to the fact that some

of our allies do business with Iran.

2. Nothing new, really. Same as he's always been.

Out of touch, arrogant and a little nuts. That's our bu$h! :silly:

[whistle]

3. Not a good trait for a man in the most powerful position in the world

[TahitiNut]

4. He was clearly unsuccessful in describing the planet he lives on.

He's totally in some surrealistic Disneyland where cause and effect have an entirely different relationship.

7. His creepy-teeth rictus grin reminds me of Hannibal Lecter.

10. bubble boy. When he went to europe a few years ago and then had a stop

in Thailand-i think it was Thailand there were hundreds of thousands of protesters-of course and a he said to a reporter from Reuters-"Wow they really don't like me" and the Reuters person said Bush seemed genuinely surprised by that. Thats what happens when you're in a place that doesn't hide the protesters or put them in a free speech zone.
