C-Span Bush getting off the plane - Did anyone else see this?
looked as drunk as a skunk and dishevelled. I never saw such a sloppy hand-wave in my life.

This right before C-Span played his pre-recorded weekly address.

4. That was ghastly...the dog thing
How does a grown man who can run with the Marines in 100+ weather drop a little bitty dog? The picture was funny (the girls reactions of horror), but disturbing because the man who has access to 'the button' can't even carry a little animal without fucking it up. Poor dog! My dog weighs about 50 pounds and I've never dropped her (don't carry her much, either). I hope someone got pictures of him exiting the plane.

2. Watch when he walks, see if the front of his foot
slaps down. If it does, that's a sign of brain damage from alcohol. I haven't paid attention to his walk, and I don't watch TV, so I leave it up to the DU crowd to check his walk.

7. Could you explain that?
What do you mean "front of his foot slaps down"?

16. His walk was very shaky
As I watched him walk I specifically looked at his feet and remembered walking exactly like that when I desperately didn't want it to show I was drunk (younger and wilder days).

Today was more than brain damage... I will bet money he was shit-faced.

It looked as if there was a slight problem getting out of the cabin. Some guy walked out first, the Laura as if pushed a little, then Bush with his shirt opened and wrinkled, hair disshevelled, shit-eating sloppy grin, with that smirking salute that's getting sloppier and sloppier...

As he walked, I couldn't believe he managed not to stumble.

3. saw it on MS-NBC....shrub looked really bad....stumbling down
the steps of Air Force 1...stopping regularly to find the steps and focus his eyes...shirt open, disordered and untidy...IMO, looks like something the cat dragged in...

...sad...

17. THANK YOU!
Yes... You explained that better than I did...! He had to feel for his steps and the eyes were TOTALLY off!

Thanks... I thought maybe I was hallucinating from my head-ache- knowing full well I wasn't but my mind just doesn't want to believe that his handlers can't do a better job!

There is ABSOLUTELY NO RESPECT for the American people.

HONOR AND DIGNITY INDEED! :puke:

5. Someone posted earlier today
That today's radio address did not sound like * at all. Maybe they pulled a "Dave" because * was too $hitfaced?

8. I sure wish we had a "Dave"
And I bet his dogs do too.

Was it something that will repeat on C-Span?

18. Maybe right before the Weekly Radio address
It's very short so don't be late if they re-broadcast the address.

9. The radio address was pre-recorded... I was waiting to hear
him slur because of his drunken demeanour when he stepped off the helicopter. Shocked when he didn't and then saw "recorded earlier".

Now that you mention it, it didn't even sound like him despite that and that would make sense since apparently stepping off the helicopter wasn't live either.

12. Twice I have seen him blow after a speech,
looks like the biggest "Whew! I read the teleprompter good on that one, didn't I?" Letterman showed one last night, and Jon Stewart showed one the other night. Like a complete halfwit.

19. And the audience laughed when he told Leno "low expectations"
Hope they're still laughing now! This is really heart-breaking. What an embarrassment for our nation!

14. coming from helicopter to the plane....heavy belly there....(pic)
Edited on Sat Aug-30-03 06:24 PM by amen1234




laura has her top three buttons undone (la la lalala la la)...they threw a large and ill-fitting suite coat on the shrub, due to his increasing beer belly and loss of shoulder muscle...either one of these people could use a decent ironing, at least a sharp crease...and that spot remover didn't work too well...

21. Can you? This is a "must-have" "must-see"!
I'm not sure how Wonk does these things.

25. He sure looks shitfaced to me


And what's with Pickles, she looks looped too and she's lost a lot of weight. Must be the stress of trying to make W looks good. Or maybe he's taking out his fustrations on her again?

28. that sharp salute from shrub...you can tell that he served in the
BAR....how much further can shrub degrade our military....

although those photos from the helicopter descent are good...the ones where shrub really stumbled were coming off Air Force 1....he teetered at the top of the steps and then stopped regularly to find the next step, stumbling from one side of the stairs to the other...sad, really sad...
