I wonder if George really knew he was being taped?......because

[glarius]

isn't he known to be rather vulgar and fowl mouthed in private?....Why is it that no where does he use bad language, that I heard anyway....Also the things he "admits" to on the tapes (drug use) are pretty well known by everyone anyway, even his supporters, and he knew that...This whole "revelation" could just be a phony set up. It does NOT show him in a bad light,and Wead knows that... IMO...

P.S....Don't forget Wead is a friend of the Bush family.
P.S.Again....Our Canadian TV stations are even playing this "secret tape"

1. I think the guy who made the tape

is a minister. Not sure though.:shrug:

[Still_Loves_John]

3. Yeah

What's weird about the tapes is that they aren't Bush unplugged. This guy was a big name conservative Christian, and Bush was trying for their support. He was certainly more candid, but he still hadn't totally let his guard down.

2. Bushs' very existence shows him in a bad light.

[asjr]

4. I'm with you. From what little I have heard excerpted from the tape

it does not put Shrub in a bad light. If anything is seems to put him in the category of "human" a la the bit about not wanting anyone to say Dad, the president uses marijuana, why can't I? That is so lame. That alerted me right away that this was put out by the WH and who actually knows when it was made. There is so much to cover up these days this is just a side show.

[glarius]

7. And I think THAT'S WHY CNN is playing it over and over and over....

They know it is showing Bush in a good light!

[FreedomAngel82]

15. Of course they're

promoting this like crazy and then going to show "see? He's not bad!" And then people will forget about Gannon/Guckert.

[Freddie Stubbs]

5. Wead hasn't released all of the tapes

Perhaps that is why he didn't release all of them.

[TwentyFive]

6. Had not thought of this.

But I think you are right. Now that you mention it...sounds just like a Karl Rove set up. When it comes to trickery, these guys are always several steps ahead.

[Cocoa]

8. he knew, because it was made in a studio

the same studio that they make the bin Laden and Zarqawi tapes, and the tape where the guy said "Let's roll."

[glarius]

9. CNN just read an email from a viewer saying.."This shows what a

human person he is. He's just as real when he doesn't know he's being taped!".....This was exactly the effect the Bushies were looking for....They are so devious, it's unbelievable!

[Cocoa]

10. it's obvious what they want the reaction to be

because they KEEP FUCKING TELLING US.

[FreedomAngel82]

16. Bingo

And notice none of them care about Gannon anymore. All this stuff makes me sick. :puke:

[Vinnie From Indy]

11. Why even post this bullshit? n/t

[glarius]

12. What's wrong with speculating?

:shrug:

[idiosyncratic]

13. Does anyone else think it is ironic this guy's name is Wead

when * is talking about smoking "weed?"

[glarius]

14. That's funny!!!!

LOL

[peaches2003]

17. Set-Up to make him look good

I think the whole thing is a complete sham. It takes away the 'did he do any drugs' question from ever being asked again and he gets to have it on record that he has refused to answer the question all these years "FOR THE CHILDREN".

[glarius]

18. You're so right...I never thought about that "for the children" crap!

:)

[glarius]

19. No Republicans have been on CNN bitching about the playing of these

tapes....They WANT them played, because they hope people will think Bush is a REAL GUY and cares about influencing little children...:puke:
