Why the fuck is Jeb going to Thailand?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

What are they trying to signal to the world, that the US now has a ROYAL FUCKING FAMILY?

[Raster]

1. I'm surprised ol "keep it up" neal isn't going.

[Streetdoc270]

3. Neal is too broken up at the loss of his favorite sex vacation spot

N/T

[bumblebee1]

21. Neal's Vacation Spot

Man, oh man, that was funny. I loved that comment, streetdoc270.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

4. Neil the Herpes Czar?

.

[Chelsea Patriot]

32. Yes, Neil is the one infected with herpes.

I heard he caught them at birth.

[Carl Brennan]

54. The difference between love and herpes.....

herpes lasts forever. :bounce:

[newyorican]

2. Why...

starting the campaign for 2008, what else?

[tsuki]

5. A Florida Dem here. How can I convince them to keep him? eoq

[kcass1954]

16. Another Florida Dem here...

Maybe we could take up a collection if they'd agree to keep him.

[tsuki]

33. I'm in.

[marc_the_dem]

48. ft lauderdale Dem

count me in...

[jdj]

51. you guys need to collectively accuse him of Dereliction of Duty

Florida still hasn't recovered from the 4 hurricanes, you really need to protest this, he has no business leaving his state in a time like this.

It's definitely for photo-ops to get that stateman like crap going.

If Jeb starts talking with a drawl, we'll know they are grooming him.

I really don't think he'll fly with Bush's redneck base...

[Obviousman]

6. He's getting ready to run

Watch out.
PolitiKoll Discussion

[Carl Brennan]

7. I thought he was going to send brother Neil. He likes

Thai prostitutes.

We have Neil Bush admitting to whoring around the world and dead silence from his bible thumping, brethren of the Christian Right who were salivating in their hypocritical fury over Clinton and Monicagate.

http://edition.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/11/25/bush.brot...

The Bush divorce, completed in April after 23 years of marriage, was prompted in part by Bush's relationship with another woman. He admitted in the deposition that he previously had sex with several other women while on trips to Thailand and Hong Kong at least five years ago.

The women, he said, simply knocked on the door of his hotel room, entered and had sex with him. He said he did not know if they were prostitutes because they never asked for money and he did not pay them.

"Mr. Bush, you have to admit it's a pretty remarkable thing for a man just to go to a hotel room door and open it and have a woman standing there and have sex with her," Brown said.

"It was very unusual," Bush said.

[K rock]

10. I agree with Obvios...

They are getting ready to run him. Good PR, a man the pResident can trust.

[Carl Brennan]

15. OK, but Neal

"communes" with the natives better. :evilgrin:

[Carl Brennan]

26. Here's the correct link:

[Be Brave]

8. Don't you remember what he did in Florida?

He will be passing ice and bottled water to victims driving by in their cars. Like he and his brother did after the hurricanes. Great photo op, you know. Oh wait, silly me -- what cars?

[Carolab]

9. Looking for reconstruction opportunities

following the money

[Carl Brennan]

17. Oh sheeeeet

They'll fix it up like they did Iraq. :eyes:

[neverforget]

Campaign 2008 starts by going to Asia for photo ops.

[alphafemale]

11. Oh Ate. The S.O.B. is using tragedy to start campaiging for '08. nt

[Mend]

12. We are supposed to think bush cares,

not enough to end his vacation, but jeb is supposed to count as a bush who cares. If one bush cares, the whole bush family cares, sorta. Of course, malignant narcissists don't really give a shit, but we aren't supposed to notice that.

[TyeDye75]

35. What about mamma Bush

I dont think she worries her pretty little head about dead brown people

[autorank]

13. Why did Neal go to Thailand?

[Mend]

14. to get laid.

[Carl Brennan]

20. But he said that his sex with the Thai prostitute wasn't what everybody

was thinking.


From my reply above:

The women, he said, simply knocked on the door of his hotel room, entered and had sex with him. He said he did not know if they were prostitutes because they never asked for money and he did not pay them.

[autorank]

22. Jeez, that happened to him too! Damn, it's a small world.

[Mend]

29. they all stink in the sack, don't they.

they just lie there like useless lumps....same way they run things, like our country.

[Tinoire]

18. I dunno? He got 2 BILLION for his hurricane

so one must wonder what kind of "expertise" he brings.

Never mind, Halliburton's right behind him. Got it now ;)

[Carl Brennan]

52. I heard Jeb got $11 Billion

But I don't remember where I heard it.

[Tinoire]

19. Neill told him it would help... relieve his "tension"

Bush family tensions. For "beautiful minds" that can't be bothered about financially unprofitable things like body bags.

[autorank]

24. Oh so true!

[pk_du]

23. I hope the first question asked of him after he lands is;

"Governor Bush , earlier this year (shortly before the election) your State was given 2,300 Million $ in Federal Disaster Aid ...what amount would you say the US should be donating to Disaster Aid for the countries of South-Asia"

[ghostsofgiants]

44. 2,300 million $ ???

What the hell number is that supposed to be? And the dollar sign goes in front of the number.

[flygal]

25. This thread

Is why I'm so addicted to this site!!! You guys are killing me! I just saw on the news that Jeb was going and I KNEW there'd be some good stuff here!

[Carl Brennan]

27. Oh boy, you'll like this. I just saw something I hadn't seen before.

At the bottom of my quote from an article above:

The women, he said, simply knocked on the door of his hotel room, entered and had sex with him. He said he did not know if they were prostitutes because they never asked for money and he did not pay them.

"Mr. Bush, you have to admit it's a pretty remarkable thing for a man just to go to a hotel room door and open it and have a woman standing there and have sex with her," Brown said.

"It was very unusual," Bush said.


Unusual compared to what?

Brown should have asked: "Unusual compared to other jaunts you've been on in Thailand Mr. Bush"?

[proud patriot]

28. because he's campaigning

:puke:

[BiggJawn]

43. That could be it!

Or else he's checking on Bro Neil's "girls"....

[notadmblnd]

30. to arrange a hit on the prostitutes his brother played with?

I don't know.. it was just the first thing that came to my mind.

[barb162]

31. because he is such a BIG disaster expert, didn't you know?

[TyeDye75]

34. He'll do what Republicans do best in a crisis

walk around looking concerned whilst not actually doing anything, or helping anyone.

If it worked for It worked for Georgie and Rudy I think Jeb wants a slice of the action.

[nascarblue]

36. Going to admire Dick Cheneys Energy Force Events

These sick bastards knew about this tsunami and did nothing to warn the people of Thailand, Africa, and India. They warned the US Navy at Diego Garcia Naval Base which is a couple hours away. Now they're sending all the military down there instead of humanitarians. Battleships, subs, aircraft carriers, jets, helicopters, I don't trust them at all. Neither does India. India turned away Israel because Israel tried to do the same thing that the US is doing with their military. Google it and you'll see what I mean.. Here's the link with in depth research.

The Tsunami Timeline

[no_hypocrisy]

37. Because Karl Rove told him to.

[warrior1]

38. duh

because boyking is a chicken. He's yellow.

[Must_B_Free]

39. is Tsunami 2004 Jeb's 911?

[SammyWinstonJack]

40. Must be trying to drum up "bidness" for the BFEE.

More money to be made from the suffering of others, a BFEE MO. Gotta find a way to funnel that 35 mil in aid back into the BFEE vault. Who better then little bro Jeb, next in line to rule the bu$h Kingdom?

[FellowAmerican]

41. What's the big deal?

And I'm sorry, but it makes perfect sense to send Jeb because of his experience in coordinating relief in a disaster - he did a commendable job in Florida this year with the record hurricanes. If he, or anybody for that matter, can help these poor people why do you care who it is???

[CBHagman]

57. Because the priority is to actually help the people.

They haven't even found all the bodies yet, there's no guarantee of clean drinking water, people don't have adequate food, clothing and shelter, and we're sending two people who have no medical training and aren't emergency relief personnel. We should be spending our money on the basic needs of the people, not a photo opportunity.

Kofi Annan explained in a very straightforward manner why trips like this are not a good idea in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. There are all kinds of preparations that need to be made to receive visitors, and at a time when workers are struggling just to accomplish their mission.

Yes, I think it's a politically motivated trip, and yes, I think it's vanity, and yes, I think it's done for show, not for real relief. The Bush administration also sent people to Iraq who weren't trained in Arabic language or anything related to their actual job descriptions, and look how that turned out.

[Bouncy Ball]

59. Uh how exactly is he going to HELP those poor people?

It's his first campaign stop for 08, pure and simple. Puh-leeze.

[The Zanti Regent]

42. Jeb ain't getting it at home and he has Neil's black book!

Why else would he go?

[calimary]

45. Because he's one of the PNAC signatories. Probably casing the joint.

Looking for new conquest possibilities. Probably for PR, as a cover for the real objective: fact-finding about another Muslim region that is now seriously weakened, and ripe for invasion.

[peekaloo]

46. that's exactly what I thought. Ooooooh look George here's our

newest labor market.

[marc_the_dem]

47. you got it all wrong..

he's going for the sweet hotties....

[Vidar]

49. Reviving Eva Peron;s Rainbow Tour, hopefully with the same dismal results.

[liberalhistorian]

58. "Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour,

it's been an incredible success!
We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
Would Evita come through?
And the answer is: a qualified yes!

Gotta love how Rice and Webber manage to make it drip with the sarcasm it deserves.

[AngryOldDem]

50. As far as I'm concerned

If Jeb, Colin, and whoever else is going aren't planning to bury bodies or look for survivors, they should stay the hell home. They are not needed otherwise.

[Cobalt Violet]

53. Election or should I say Installment 2008 has begun.

[jdj]

55. I nominated this for the home page.

This is the question on everyone's mind right now.

[jdj]

56. I nominated this for the home page.

This is the question on everyone's mind right now.

[Bouncy Ball]

60. It's his very first campaign trip for

2008. There will be plenty of cameras so that they have footage and still shots. They'll set him up with some family who has lost everything and have him put his arm around them or something and he'll try to look all serious and they'll take some snaps.

He'll be "shown around" by some local authority and he'll tsk tsk at all the damage and then he'll jet away!
