Seven-year-old boy corrects Bush
Edited on Wed Dec-03-03 03:43 PM by WorstPresidentEver
Young Terrance Martin could not let President George W. Bush get away with mistakenly saying he was just 6 years old when he was really 7. <snip>

The boy is currently on his way to Gitmo.

3. Fact-checker???
"OK, seven," said Bush, as the crowd chuckled. "I'll take it up with the fact-checker."

You mean the Bush White House has one?????

8. Bush doesn't have a "fact checker", he has a doo-doo smeller
Like on "The Last Emperor", when the baby emperor shat, some old guy smelled his shit to determine dietary changes.

6. jeez.. you think the chimp would know, since he's raised kids
that no child wants to hear that they are younger than they really are... fact checker? A child's innocence response is all the fact checking he needs to have. This kid got one over on the chimp and the chimp tried to make the kid out to be a liar--something the chimp is very comfortable doing himself. Seems he thinks everyone else does it, too, even innocent children.

Milking 7 year olds for forced 'cuteness'... repulsive.

13. Reminds me of a four-year old on a black community talk show
Edited on Wed Dec-03-03 06:07 PM by rocknation
He was part of a group of two dozen African drum players. After they performed, the leader sat down and talked with the host of the show. He said that the youngest member was only three years old, and the camera suddenly cut to a closeup of the boy silently but boldly holding up four fingers! Both the host and the group leader apologized for the error.

At least Terrance didn't ask Bush to spell "seven"...
