The "Bush getting in the way" video

[CatWoman]

Chimpy at last is being forced to answer questions.

I guess the era of "no followups" and "only one question allowed" is over.

[CheshireCat]

1. Where can we see it?

[AllyCat]

4. Right here

A new site to add to my list! CanOFun.com

35. It's nice to see Chimpy actually doing his frickin' job

It took him poll numbers in the toilet and billions of dollars needed because a fraction of that money would have prevented the Katrina/New Orleans damage in the first place...

So the AWOL pussy is going to hang out with the military in NorthCom. Gee, I wonder what photo ops are going to happen from that...maybe he's really on his way to a GOP fundraiser...

[AllyCat]

5. Oh it's rich. That reporter is fired...

"Sir? Sir? What good can you do going down to the hurricane zone? Won't you just get in the way?"

But he's going to "observe the interface of the military" from Colorado Springs. Yeah. Go get 'em tiger!

Wuss. ..

[DemsUnited]

6. That reporter is NBC White House correspondent David Gregory

One of the few who has actually done his job the past five years. He's stepped the heat up even more since the Rove thing broke -- he was PISSED about being lied to that "Rove had nothing to do with it".

Hasn't been fired yet, don't think it'll happen anytime soon.

[caledesi]

31. I thought * was going to get whiplash when he responded to Gregory. LOL.

[ticapnews]

7. Much in the same way he observed the Vietnam War from Texas (eom)

Or Alabama. Or wherever the hell he supposedly served.

[npincus]

2. from today? when? where?

[ticapnews]

8. They were at FEMA HQ in DC

I wish someone had asked, "Do you still think Brownie was doing a great job?"

[Sequoia]

16. Heh, heh.

[liveoaktx]

3. Video

Overcompensating?

[mshasta]

15. thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

!!

[sabra]

22. thank you!

[DemExpat]

36. LOL....pathetically hilarious......love seeing him

so ridiculous and defensive, sputtering complete nonsense.... followed by Wolfie's announcement that the Chimp cancelled his trip to Texas to not get in the way....

:rofl:

:puke:

DemEx

[TomInTib]

9. I saw it live. Now * is reduced to defending himself

against "getting in the way".
How pathetic is that?

[CatWoman]

10. I think it's delicious

not pathetic :9 }(

[TomInTib]

12. Like being in a whirlpool....

by the time you get close to the center you are spinning so fast there is no perspective- nothing makes sense.

[Straight Shooter]

42. IOW, bush is circling the drain.

Go, vortex, go!

[Mutley]

11. It was beautiful!

:D

[Im with Rosey]

13. I LOVE David Gregory!

We need to keep sending him encouragement!

[ewagner]

14. He was 2 seconds away

from losing it and coming after Gregory.....

he turned sharply and faced the reporters and then regained his composure, then, he had to think of something to say as a reason for coming back to the cameras.

I think some of the speculation I've seen here is right....he's on the verge of losing it at any time....

[QuettaKid]

19. DAY-UMM!!!! he DID look like he was

about to SNAP!!! dude spun around so fast I thought he was gonna smack someone!!

[CatWoman]

21. LOL

When was the last time we saw him move that fast??? :D

[Jawja]

39. Yes

and one day he will. Either they keep him away from the public and securely in his bubble and his numbers continue to stink, or they risk sending him out to appear "in charge."

Finally the weasly bastard is being flushed out to a blood thirsty press pool.

on edit: Hi, Cat! :hi:

[GreenPartyVoter]

20. Yeah he whipped around in a right hurry. He did

get it back under control & got jokey about it. I think he saved himself in a big way there.

[Lisa]

43. the tension in his shoulders!

I could just see his mind working ... "Do I pretend I didn't hear that, and keep walking? Or do I go back and pound the guy ... I mean, try to spew out some kind of answer?"

[Delphinus]

17. He didn't answer that last question

about over-compensation. He just repeated that "we'll not get in the way". Bunch of chicken shits - too scared to "get in the way"!

[CatWoman]

18. I woke up to that clip

and heard him muttering about "interfaces" and other nonsense.

I'm glad the clip was taped.

[maddezmom]

23. replay now on Faux

and to answer, it's the only US news I get here in the UK.

What an idiot....smirking ansd smiling while he's talking about search and rescue.

[noiretextatique]

24. there isn't a word that truly describes how much i detest this person

not "hate," not even "detest"...there is no word. he talks as if the federal government belongs to him :puke: "watch the interface" :puke: "support state and local governments" :puke:
loathe, disgust, detest, despise...etc, etc, etc :puke:

[RevolutionStartsNow]

25. I heard the audio when it happened, but just watched this video...

and I must say our fearless leader looks and sounds terrible. He says "uh..." before every line, and has trouble articulating what exactly he is going to witness at CentComm. What a crock. I suppose he's always sounded like this, but I think he's lost a fair bit of that cocky bluster he used to have.

[noiretextatique]

26. he was 'splainin'

reminds me of this...another "duh" moment (there are SO many)

Bush's comment on tribal sovereignty creates a buzz

By LEWIS KAMB
SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER
Speaking at the Unity: Journalists of Color convention in Washington, D.C., last Friday, President Bush, responding to a question about what tribal sovereignty meant in the 21st century, said: "Tribal sovereignty means just that; it's sovereign. You're a -- you've been given sovereignty, and you're viewed as a sovereign entity."

To many Native Americans -- and Democrats, alike -- the president's answer spoke volumes about what they see as his ignorance of Indian issues. And to many, the operative word in Bush's response was the verb "given."

[RevolutionStartsNow]

30. Exactly!

He's so painful to watch, what an idiot. I really wonder what the true deal is with him: is he stupid, stoned, or is he trying to sound "folksy"? Every once in awhile I've heard him have brief lucid moments, but almost all of the time he sounds like he is just struggling to connect brain to mouth.

[emulatorloo]

27. kicking n/t

[Rainscents]

28. Bush almost lost it... I really wished he had-so the world could see he

truly is a psycho!

[flordehinojos]

29. Damn! that question GOT UNDER HIS SKIN...he turned around some damn quick.

The question burst his bubble of sanctimonious photo-op-acting for the cameras!

[DemsUnited]

32. The latest is: BUSH CANCELLED TRIP TO TEXAS ON FEARS HE'D BE IN THE WAY!

Not kidding! Just heard on local DC news radio on the way home.

[CatWoman]

33. wonder what was his first "clue"?

[DemsUnited]

40. Could it have been that the reporter actually made sense?

That, oh my gosh, he and his "entourage" really would have been in the way for what was obviously a photo op?

[VolcanoJen]

34. I'm corn-fused. Where in the world is the President?

And, while I'm at it, where's Bianca?

Seriously, I'm confused. I watched the video earlier today; I thought he was heading to Colorado, but in the video they made it look like he was heading to Texas to "watch the local and state officials" or some bullshit like that.

SO, where the hell is he? What did he decide to do?

Someone please enlighten me.

[Rose Siding]

37. US prez Takes Cues From Media On How To Behave In a Crisis

That's *exactly* how this one played out. :D

My only follow-up would have been, "Is that what you would have done before Katrina if you hadn't been on vacation?"

[tjdee]

38. Bush *HATES* David Gregory. That's the same guy who spoke in French....

And George got all snippy with him then, too. It's weird, because Gregory isn't the most leftist person in the world--he just really seems to rub Georgie the wrong way.
