He's drunk.

[Bouncy Ball]

He's also the King of the Obvious Statement.

New Orleans is underwater.

No shit?

There are a lot of people affected.

No shit?

This is going to take a long time to recover from.

No shit?

I keep waiting for him to say something, oh I don't know, useful.

BTW, where are these people who are supposed to be evacuating everyone? He says they are there. Where?

Major ASSets. Major ASSets. He keeps saying that and says it just like that: major ASSets.

Oooo they had to dry him out a bit before he could give this speech. He's red and puffy again and seems like he's still a bit drunk.

OMG. I just typed that and he said "trashnsportation." And he can't say "infrastructure" or "alleviate."

Dear God, he seriously DOES sound tipsy. Ok that's it, I'm convinced. The way he just said "available" is EXACTLY how people say it when they've had several drinks. I've heard it before. Hell, I'VE said it that way after a few margaritas. This is sad. He needs a 12 step program.

1. Why does he talk to us like we're 5 years old?

[Bouncy Ball]

2. Because he's drunk. HE has to talk that way

in order to form words and sentences.

[Telly Savalas]

20. It's called "reaching out to his base"

[Bouncy Ball]

3. Holy SHIT.

He REALLY fucking IS drunk. He just said the "shitty of New Orleans."

Crap. He was slurring all over the fucking place.

[Window]

23. ROTFLMAO!!!

.

[WindRavenX]

4. WOW

That speech was as useful as a fuckin' hole in the head.

[Bouncy Ball]

8. Well drunk people

usually aren't real good at giving useful, reassuring speeches to the nation.

[DoYouEverWonder]

5. He's doing this on purpose

He doesn't want to help the country get through this. This is all a show.

[Bouncy Ball]

10. Well, it was certainly one of the most useless speeches

I've ever seen him give and that's saying a lot considering his record.

I think those people were behind him to sort of prop him up. Or catch him.

Seriously, he could hardly pronounce half of that speech.

[SpiralHawk]

6. He's definitely got his peculiar jaw tick going on

eom

[WindRavenX]

7. WOW

That speech was as useful as a fuckin' hole in the head

[musette_sf]

17. and it stunk

as badly as the Superdome bathroom facilities.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

9. "12 step program"? I'm leaning toward impeachment, and then....

...charging the SOB with treason with the hope that he will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

[Bouncy Ball]

11. Well, yeah.

I meant on an individual level, he needs to be workin' some steps. Getting him some serenity and sobriety.

[pepperlove]

15. From your keyboard....

to the heart and ear of GAWD!

[DancingBear]

12. This boy is shit-faced three sheets to the wind drunk

No question.

None.

They needed the whole effin' Cabinet behind him in case he lost it.

[high density]

13. That was horrible

I couldn't watch more than three minutes worth. Just more empty words said in such an empty way.

[Left Is Write]

14. Dumbfuck can't pronounce "Louisiana" either.

And apparently, he has deduced that it will take years to recover from this disaster! Give that boy a big fucking medal! Did he manage to figure that one out all by himself?

He is a complete disgrace to the office of the president.

[sickinohio]

16. I didn't watch the drunk chimp's speach. Is it on video anywhere?

[charlie]

18. C-Span

[sickinohio]

21. Thank you for that - I'll force myself to watch.

[Ikonoklast]

19. Did Duh-abblyoo just read a speech exactly

like it was written by Ralph Wiggum? Or is he just pumped full of opiates to keep him disconnected from all reality?

God how the rest of the world must laugh at us every time he opens his piehole and spouts inanities.

My sister and her family live in Spain and the Spanish press is just astounded that we still let these people stay in power.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

22. Why did the msm keep say ing "Press Conference"...??

I didn't see any question/answer session here. Why don't they just say, "bush will talk and will not take questions." That pisses me off because when people hear that they tune in because they think they will get some answers. Bah, humbug.
