The lying bastard is live on cnn now

[madokie]

[wanpete]

1. which one? there are so many ya know!

[madokie]

2. THE BIG ONE

[VolcanoJen]

3. Isn't it unusual to have Cheney standing behind him?

Is Cheney working the strings, or something?

Gives me the creeps, seeing them both standing there like that.

[BrklynLiberal]

9. Cheney has to have his hand up W's ass...you know, like a puppet.

[xxqqqzme]

68. do unca dick's lips still move?

or has he improved?

[symbolman]

93. If someone kicked Bush in the ass

they'd break Cheney's arm..

[Bob3]

65. Watch while * talks while Cheney drinks a glass of water

it's an amazing trick. Really.

[spuddonna]

4. What's he lying about now? n/t

[Momof1]

6. how well everything is going in Iraq & Afghanistan n/t

[madokie]

10. How good the "killing" is going in Iraq and Afghanistan

[spuddonna]

24. You guys are pulling my leg right?

He's not talking about the hurricane, he's talking about Iraq and Afghanistan?! What the hell is wrong with him!!

[madokie]

71. ROFLMAO I ain't had a good laugh in a while I guess

My dogs think I've gone crazy. wheew :rofl:

[0007]

52. How the terrorist are cold blooded killers that enjoy killing

for now reason at all. They don't care who they kill. Yap yap yap we are not going to give up the fight. If we cut and run that will send a message to the world that they have defeated us. We are making progress. The terrorist and the killers hate us because we have a democracy and it is free.

junior just keeps rambling on and on and on with the whole thing over and over.

[gratuitous]

5. Hurricane bearing down on Texas

And Stupidhead is addressing the war on terror. Brilliant.

[Roxy66]

7. TERROR, TERROR, TERROR. (Bush)..Do ya think I scared um....he,he,he

[MaineDem]

8. Is he still going to TX and LA this weekend? (nt)

[Connie_Corleone]

I hope so. He should tomorrow.

[Momof1]

11. 9/11 mention counter 1

n/t

[Seansky]

12. Must be desperate (how many conf. and live interviews has he done

prior to Katrina faliure?)

[rasputin1952]

76. He is seriously desperate...#'s in the tank, and they can't

figure out how to get them up...:evilgrin:

He's going down fast, and the 'terror' crap proves it all the more...only place he can go to reach the base.

[Seansky]

108. and by now, he can't go down without taking so much of the country

down with him.

[gratuitous]

13. Oh golly

"There are differences of opinion about the way forward, I understand that."

Then he goes on to caricature those differences, totally misstating what everyone who disagrees with him has said, and somehow claims that "we lack the courage and confidence to defend ourselves."

Seems to forget that the worst terrorist attack ever launched on the United States came after the terrorists had eight months to size him up, weigh him in the balance, and found him to be quite wanting.

Mene, mene, tekel upharsin, Georgie boy.

[Momof1]

14. 9/11 counter 2

n/t

[The Gunslinger]

15. I think its funny

He's babbling about continuing spending lives and $$ fighting the war for profit, while the bottom right of the tv screen shows a cat 5 hurricane making its way to the US.

[madokie]

20. animated articulation, what a freaking DUFUS

[calico1]

34. OMG...

So he thinks if he just pretends there is no cat. 5 hurricane, everyone else will forget it? What an ass.

[gratuitous]

16. Calling for "sacrifice and commitment" Hah!

How about sacrificing some of the Treasury that you are so busy funneling into your pals' pockets.

Taking a couple of questions now. "Nedra." Pickler, I assume. She goes off script to ask about a slightly more immediate problem: The fucking hurricane that's getting ready to scrub Houston off the map.

Now he's lying about how "prepared" he was for Katrina.

[katty]

107. let's blood Sacrifice Cheney and Commit bush today

[political_invader]

17. The Kool ade is GUSHING out of his mouth

:puke: :puke:

[TahitiNut]

18. The sociopath is totally obsessed with what he OPPOSES.

He's all about killing and destroying -- and identifying "them" for blame and evil. All allusions to any 'good' is prospective and mere rationalization - never realized.

[ultraist]

77. Invoking "us vs. them" is his only hope

He's lost a lot of power and he wants it back! That's why his handlers are having him tie the hurricane disaster to terrorism. MUST HAVE an enemy and a hurricane doesn't create a "them."

http://www.hillnews.com/thehill/export/TheHill/Comment/Pollsters/MarkMellman/091405.html

Presidential approval ratings always go up during foreign-policy crises. Bush’s ratings shot upward on Sept. 11 as they did the day we invaded Afghanistan and again as we invaded Iraq. So had President Jimmy Carter’s the day the hostages were seized in Iran. President John F. Kennedy reacted with bemused incredulity when his approval rating rose in the wake of the Bay of Pigs fiasco. (For those who have lost track of the details, the word “fiasco” should be a tip-off that it didn’t turn out so well.)

Crises involving foreigners raise approval ratings because they instantiate the “us” versus “them” dynamic that animates every social species. Whoever the “we” and “them” might be, whenever “we” feel threatened by “them,” “we” pull together to face the challenge from the outsider. That unity reflects itself in social solidarity and support for the leader. Such reactions are a fundamental tenet of group identity and behavior.

These sentiments create a mutually reinforcing set of feelings. By attacking “us,” “they” instilled a sense of national pride evident in responses to survey questions and in skyrocketing flag sales. Studies demonstrate that patriotism and national pride in turn increased trust in fellow citizens and in government.

[Momof1]

19. 9/11 counter 3

n/t

[Roxy66]

21. Wow...that woman asked a pretty tough question

"Why has it been so hard to catch Osama Bin Laden....why are they still free?" (Paraphrasing)

[political_invader]

31. Ga DUH we are doing all we can to find him

and when we have the oppoturnity find him we will catch him Got it.

We are doing a MORE BETTER job every day.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[gratuitous]

22. "I'll get to you in a moment, you seem anxious to ask a question"

Okay, I'll be a nickel he isn't going to call on whoever that is. Takes a question about Osama bin Laden, and totally ignores it to bloviate about his disintegrating coalition.

"Le-le-let me take a step back." Dimbulb.

Now he's mentioning the Taliban. Has anyone told him that the Taliban are back and with a vengeance in Afghanistan? Totally clueless.

[symbolman]

23. I've been waiting for the hurricane on the lower right of the screen

on CNN to break free of it's little box and ravage his face, where little oil streams would break out all over the face and shower Cheney and the rest of the crooks..

C'mon RITA on my screen!

[MaineDem]

28. I'd pay to see that!

:)

Thanks for that visual. It made my day!

[madokie]

80. C'mon RITA I sure hope someone has this on tape

To make millions with, the funny est thing I've seen in a while.

[symbolman]

91. Oh, I TIVOED the crap outta this one

watched it three times already.. for those with TIVO watch Cheney get a big old HUGE grin while Chimpy Crackjaw brays all about how he "cut through all the red tape so that the cleanup could begin, that the mayor would have to sign a form in order for the govt to go on private property to clear debris.."

Cheney was ecstatic KA CHING! 60 BILLION no Bid contract where we don't even HAVE TO CLEAN ANYTHING UP - blame it on the Mayor later..sweet..

I'm going to start saving videos and make a "dancing Jaw" flash of Bushola..

[madokie]

95. You have a Treasure no doubt.

just think what that will bring in 20 years. Its a classic.
:rofl: :rofl:
All that blather with a hurricane barreling down on us.

[Rick Myers]

25. I swear to God he's gonna announce...

Osama has a weather control machine!!!

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

26. it's not "ta" it's "to", dumbass

[Roxy66]

27. "freedoms on the march"....FREE, FREE, TERROR, TERROR

THIS APPROACH DOESNT WORK ANYMORE...DICKHEAD

[gratuitous]

29. "There's been success. There's been success."

Who are you trying to convince, Chimpy? "Part of the global war on terror is in Iraq." Yeah, because you created such a quagmire, ripe for breeding terror there, you idiot!

Lecturing about democracy, democracy, democracy. Keeps talking about the terrorists' strategy, but is noticeably short on any coherent strategy.

Back on the Taliban again, and he's still oblivious to its resurgence in Afghanistan.

[Kadie]

30. it is hard work, it is a struggle

it is going take time.

blah blah blah

[gratuitous]

32. "You got a question sir? What might it be?"

Petulant little pissypants isn't he? Asked about what he plans to cut to pay for hurricane relief, he goes back to talking about winning the war on terrorism.

That wasn't the question, dopey. How do you plan to pay for all these extraordinary expenses?

[VolcanoJen]

33. What kind of totally phony crap is this!!???!!????

Sheeesh, he's got Cheney, Rumsfeld, Condi, and Gen. Myers standing up there behind him.

Think, DUers... has a press conference by Bush ever featured this many senior staff members, all gathered in one place behind him?

[political_invader]

45. They want to get their spin out

Before this Saturdays march.

[faithnotgreed]

83. i guess it means we better watch out because they have something

planned

with them who can tell but you know its not good
some kind of veiled threat probably

[symbolman]

92. MY question would have been

"What kind of dumbass would take ALL of his Senior Staff and put them in ONE PLACE, let CNN ANNOUNCE WHERE they WERE and then wonder how someone got them all later wearing 20 sticks of Dynamite in a vest?"

Don't they think that AL Zaqwari (thought he was dead again last week for the 300th time) WATCHES TV and has people in Place everywhere?

Has he ever seen the Manchurian Candidate or did he think the tea party scene was too gay to continue watching..

Nothing like losing a good portion of your cast in one fell swoop..

and if there's any FBI guys reading this, tell them to NOT do that, it's simply retarded.. ever heard of all your eggs in one basket?

You're right VolcanoJen - this is amazing, someone needs to throw this guy a rope, it's making me sick watching him drown in public..

I told my wife tonight that I think it suddenly occurred to Chimpy that if everyone hates him (and he just now found out) and ALL THOSE FOLKS on stage with him decided to "retire and spend time with the family" that HE would be left HOLDING THE BAG -- "Sorry sir, someone has to go to jail for all this and you're the last one standing here so let's get the cuffs on and alert the media for the Hague trial - don't worry, you'll get to write a book about all this while on suicide watch - they have crayons in the Hague.."

Chimpy floods Kevlar Depends as they lead him away..

good call, this was WiErD..

[VolcanoJen]

99. The only thing missing was the Head of Homeland Security.

Interesting.

Vice President. Secretary of Defense. Secretary of State. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Vice-Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, even.

Where's Chertoff?

[symbolman]

103. Chertoff?

Love that Russian old school sounding name..

I think Chertoff is flooding his Kevlar Depends behind a toilet, 200 feet below Bush's Disney House of Political Horrors in Crawford where they have the Dr Strangeglove Hippie Free Love "screw'em if you got'em" underground bunker..

Outside of the former Senator from Washington State he's the closest match to "Skeletor" I've seen in a long time..

What is HIS resume, running a sex slave market in Saudi Arabia, "Real thoroughbreds, baby.. Speakin' of Babies, we just got a big old truckload of blondies right here!"

[earth mom]

94. During Camp Casey he had em all with him then too.

I don't get CNN so I didn't see what happened. But it sounds like they're propping him up and are at the ready in case he really loses it which from the sound of it, may be very soon. :scared:

[gratuitous]

35. Calling for a question from "Bianca," who isn't there

Looking for a softball. Where's Jeff Gannon?

[hippiechick]

50. Maybe Bianca is Jeff's new code name ....

:shrug:

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

36. I've never seen such teeth grinding

I've heard that he does it, but never really noticed it before. This time, I did. His jaw is moving left to right after almost every pause.

[Roxy66]

37. Ha, Ha , Ha.."Bianca"..."Oh, Bianca's not here"...what an ass

[karlrschneider]

38. Jesus...tried to call on "Bianca"...nobody by that name even there

:eyes:

[BBradley]

39. I guess Bianca forgot to show to pitch the softball question...

[VolcanoJen]

40. BUSTED!!! There's no reporter named "Bianca" there!!

Hahahahahaha... Chimpy just went to the next reporter on his Rove-approved list, asking for "Bianca."

Nobody replied. He looked up. "Bianca? Is there a Bianca??" He stuttered a little, the press corps laughed, and he looked around for a real, live reporter to call on.

Did Bush just get punked? Unbelievable.

[CountAllVotes]

41. where is Bianca?

Oh, not here - I'll let someone else experience "the joy". OMG! What a SON OF A BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!

:kick:

[Bonobo]

42. His jaw is going freakin' nuts today!

plus this "looking for Bianca" stuff is pretty sexist sounding...

[Momof1]

43. Bianca to give him soft ball?

n/t

[madokie]

57. a couple gems.

You got a question man, what might it be. big shit eatin' grin
spreading around the joy of asking me a question. serious as a heart attack

[Roxy66]

44. Teeth grinding is bad today......watch to see if he wipes his nose

[MissB]

46. He doesn't have even a sense of decorum.

What a shmuck.

[LeftyFingerPop]

47. His fucking jaw just went crazy. N/T

[VolcanoJen]

53. I saw that

That had to have been completely obvious to everyone. You don't see a cocaine-jaw that bad every day, ya know?

[soleft]

85. You made me google cocaine jaw

http://www.channel4.com/health/microsites/0-9/4health/drugs/ust_mike.html

When you do large quantities of coke your muscles begin to seize up and your vision becomes blurred. You also get hot and often begin to "gurn". This is when you continually move your jaw around tensing and untensing the jaw muscle. This occurs with worse severity with lower quality coke and whilst on ecstasy.

[RaleighNCDUer]

89. "...occurs with worse severity with lower quality coke..."

THAT'S what has him rattled. Katrina screwed up his connections and he's not getting the good stuff this week.

[symbolman]

97. Hey! What a great word "Gurn"

Reagan was "The Gipper", maybe Bush can be "The Gurner" :)

Gurn Baby Gurn!

[VolcanoJen]

100. GURNER!!!! It's the new "Chimpy!!!"

soleft, I think you may have given birth to a new nickname for President Dangerous.

:-)

I'm a bartender, and although I haven't seen it in ahwile, back in my nighclub-tendin' days, Cocaine-Jaw was unmistakable. They'd stand at the bar, jaw grinding every which way, begging for shots of alcohol to calm them down.

[soleft]

101. He looks like he's gurning in your avatar

[VolcanoJen]

102. He sure does. And that was taken during G8 in '04.

Savannah, Georgia. :-)

[soleft]

105. Chin One for the Gurner

My gf came up with that one

[VolcanoJen]

106. LMFAO!!!

Oh, that is rich!! :-) :-) :-)

[LeftyFingerPop]

70. Ha always looks so.......

angry and defensive. It's like he is trying to everyone that he is smart.

"I wanna talk to ya about the war on Tara. We are making progress in the war on Tara. It's a global war on Tara"

Did you see that evil smirk Cheney gave him when he was done speaking to us about the Tara Ists"?

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

81. Yes, Cheney looked positively diabolical

hunched over with his hands together and an evil glint in his eye.

[gratuitous]

48. Someone gave him an out

How long before Iraq is ready to manage its own affairs?

Oh, we're making progress. We can't point to any, but I say we're making progress.

Still looking for "Bianca" to pitch him a softball.

Another question about how he's going to pay for hurricane and disaster relief. Going on and on about how he understands that there are going to be costs, nothing about how he plans to come up with the money for all the repairs.

[blogslut]

49. Who is Bianca?

And why does Bush want to answer her question so badly. Could it be because this "news conference" is just a tad staged?

[bluedog]

55. think she s FOX reporter

Bianca de la Garza
Weekend Anchor/Reporter, FOX25

Bianca de la Garza was promoted to weekend anchor of FOX25 News at Ten in October of 2002. During the week, she is a general assignment reporter for FOX25 News. Bianca has been a member of the FOX25 News team since September of 2001. As a versatile and talented 'working anchor,' her day may be as varied as working a feature story from the newsroom, covering breaking news, fronting a live shot at 5pm, writing a news story for the 10pm and fill-in anchor duties at 10pm.

Bianca came to Boston from KGTV in San Diego, where she worked for two years as a field correspondent. Prior to that, she worked as a reporter at WTEN in Albany, New York.

Bianca arrived in Boston just prior to the events of September 11th. She joined the FOX25 News team in covering the local impact of the tragedies. A graduate of Emerson College, Bianca grew up on the South Shore and is happy to be back in New England.

[Kadie]

51. Wonder what question Biana was suppose to ask...

he sure is anxious to find her.

[spuddonna]

54. I don't have CNN... Can someone tell me...

was this a planned press conference? Did it have a stated point, like 'update on war on terrah' or is it just a general press briefing in the press room at the WH?

[Roxy66]

56. Cheney is trying to get him out of there...lol

[MellowOne]

58. He's totally out of touch of reality

He lives in his own little world pretending everything is okay, that the people love him and he can do no wrong.

[ultraist]

64. Yes, but I think he's mad about his low ratings

He sounded whiny, desperate and defensive when he said several times, "it takes a while to understand..."

I think lil georgie is upset because nobody likes him. Sociopaths don't deal with public humiliation well.

[Momof1]

74. Or Novak's latest column?

http://www.townhall.com/columnists/robertnovak/rn20050922.shtml

[ultraist]

82. ooohhh,...

boo fucking hoo, lil georgie is losing some of his base:

ASPEN, Colo. -- For two full days, George W. Bush was bashed. He was taken to task on his handling of stem cell research, population control, the Iraq war and, especially, Hurricane Katrina. The critics were no left-wing bloggers. They were rich, mainly Republican and presumably Bush voters in the last two presidential elections

How DARE his followers turn against him! Sociopaths also don't like being out of control. Controlling others is a biggie for them.

[Momof1]

87. I'm sure * isn't to happy about that....lol n/t

[cassiepriam]

98. sociopaths occasionally melt down....

when faced with strong humiliation and severe
consequences. When their view of reality can no longer be maintained
they can begin to crack. Doesn't usually happen, but it can.
But sociopathy is not his only mental illness. So hard to tell.

[gratuitous]

59. "You gotta understand, it takes a while to understand"

No, we understand quite well, you idiot. The question is, HOW ARE YOU GOING TO PAY FOR IT???

What programs are you going to cut? What taxes are you going to impose? How are you going to pay for it?

One more question about the offsets, interrupting his farewell.

Hey stupid! We know there are going to be costs, and there's no question about that. What are you going to cut to pay for it???

God dammit you asshole. Just say you don't have the slightest clue. Cheney standing behind him now, trying to hustle him off the podium.

[ultraist]

84. Dem leaders need to get very loud on this

And DEMAND that the wealth/inheritance tax NOT be cut. It's due time for the fat cat voters to step up to the plate and share the burden more equitably.

[AllyCat]

96. They won't I'm afraid.

So fed up with the lot of them I can hardly stand it. And now Feingold is going to vote for Roberts!!! Ugh!!!

[kentuck]

60. He "bogarted" all the time so as not having to take any questions...

What an asshole! Duplicitous, bullshitter.

[me b zola]

61. Trying to explain why he wants federal control of LA

Also why he isn't working with Congress



LIE, LIE, LIE

[hippiechick]

62. I think this is going to backfire on him ...

... people are in a freakin' panic about Rita and he's standing up there sputtering and stuttering about Terra.

This press conference only amplifies his total disconnect with reality and the real people who live in this country.

[Momof1]

66. He screwed up and only mentioned 9/11 3 times n/t

[Connie_Corleone]

67. You would think these idiots would learn from the last hurricane.

He's doing exactly what he did right before Katrina hit. Talking about everything except the hurricane.

[political_invader]

69. Yep you nailed it. nt

[gauguin57]

63. I think Bush looks terrible -- as in unhealthy!

Huge circles under his eyes ... can it be that the Fortunate Prince is having trouble sleeping? That all this "hard work" he's supposedly been doing is having an effect on his countenance?

Nah -- it's probably just the booze. Wakes you up in the middle of the night when you get to be middle-aged, dontchaknow?

[Algorem]

72. something's been "banging Bush" as Pat Buchanan would say

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

73. He reminds me of Captain Queeg under cross examination

He's getting carried away with the sound of his voice and his own obsessions. Substitute his grinding teeth for the rolling ball bearings and you've got the picture of a guy on the edge.

[RaleighNCDUer]

90. It was the strawberries, ya see? That's where I had 'em. nt

[PA Democrat]

75. Bush's new vocabulary word for the day.....

INVENTORY.

We gotta take INVENTORY of the uh, uh, damage.

You gotta understand, we don't know how much it's gonna cost until we take INVENTORY.

ANd he always pauses slightly before he says his new word with much emphasis, so people notice what a clever boy he is.

[Chi-Town Exile]

79. Guess I Picked a Good Time to turn off the television

Bush and Cheney, what a pleasure. Shouldn't Dick be preparing for surgery or something? :puke:

[madokie]

88. You missed the funniest funniest press conference ever

[onecent]

104. What's the saying? "He who doeth protest too much?" n/t

[ultraist]

86. bwhahaha!!!

:rofl:

[EnfantTerrible]

78. He's girding the public

for the inevitable British withdrawal from Iraq.
