Bush's Obscene Tirades Rattle White House Aides

While President George W. Bush travels around the country in a last-ditch effort to sell his Iraq war, White House aides scramble frantically behind the scenes to hide the dark mood of an increasingly angry leader who unleashes obscenity-filled outbursts at anyone who dares disagree with him.

“I’m not meeting again with that goddamned bitch,” Bush screamed at aides who suggested he meet again with Cindy Sheehan, the war-protesting mother whose son died in Iraq. “She can go to hell as far as I’m concerned!”

Bush flashes the bird, something aides say he does often and has been doing since his days as governor of Texas.
Bush, administration aides confide, frequently explodes into tirades over those who protest the war, calling them “motherfucking traitors.” He reportedly was so upset over Veterans of Foreign Wars members who wore “bullshit protectors” over their ears during his speech to their annual convention that he told aides to “tell those VFW assholes that I’ll never speak to them again is they can’t keep their members under control.”

3. he did serve beer at his Crawford ass-kiss-fest Bar-B-Que for reporters

5. Good point. I've seen lots of photos of Bush

holding up a glass of something. He held up one at a dinner with Gloria Arroyo in the Phillipines, one with Jacques Chirac, one in Ireland. Most recently, Denmark. Lots of dinners, lots of glasses.

I always wondered what was in them. Alcohol? Alcoholics are not supposed to drink, ever again. They shouldn't even be pretending, like apple juice in a wine glass, just to "play the part". It can cause a relapse.

I think I know.

4. The King Has No Clothes. The King is Dressed in a Nixon Suit

The King is going to Disneyworld - Fantasyland, specifically.

The wrapping is coming off the package.

He is holding to Reality by a fingernail.

Queeg is sane compared to this monkey.
