At the beginning of a press briefing at the Pentagon today, George W. Bush took a few relatively tough questions about Hurricane Rita, the administration's failure to capture Osama bin Laden and Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, what he's going to cut to pay for Hurricane Katrina and why it's taking so long to secure Iraq's border with Syria. Just as it seemed that the president needed the breather that a friendly, Jeff Gannon-style query might provide, Bush called for a question from someone named Bianca.

There was silence. "Nobody named Bianca?" Bush asked. "Well, sorry Bianca's not here. I'll be glad to answer her question."

When another reporter -- someone who wasn't Bianca -- offered to ask a question in her stead, Bush said he was "just trying to spread the joy around of asking a question." A minute or two after that, a female reporter tried to put a question to the president. "Are you Bianca?" Bush asked. "No I'm not," she said, "Anita -- from Fox News."

"OK," Bush said. "I was looking for Bianca. I'm sorry."

1. HOLY SHIT, was the plant in the ladies' room????

He is beyond pathetic...and his STAFF ARE IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!

A lousy, first year one-star general would fire a staffer who screwed up something like that...but I guess he can't fire Scotty, he knows too much, apparently.

2. He's not even smart enough

to play the game right. What a moran.

3. Maybe Bianca's at her OBGYN

getting love

[Kurovski]

4. Anita, Bianca...it all sounds the same to Bush's addled brain.

He shoulda' just said "Where's the softballer from FOX?"

His chucklehead, jokester routine just does not play well when he's discussing matters of life and death. Where's his nanny to set him straight?

11. why Bianca? What was she supposed to ask? this is weird

even for the talking monkey.

[belle]

21. I'm sick enough to wish it had been Bush asking for "Mike Hunt..."

yes, it's offensive and old, but coming from him it'd KILL.

[Castilleja]

"Why can't you get your shit together, Mr president?"

17. How much more bizarre is this guy gonna get

before people notice that he's nuts? Jeez. :eyes:

[Igel]

18. A running bit of humor. Bianca was there, in the back,

it seems, and wasn't paying attention, and had no question.

[Kurovski]

19. Uninquisitive, not paying attention, she sounds like a woman

created in the mold of George himself.

20. "I'll be glad to answer her question." I'll be glad to answer her question

..."'cause I got it right here in my notes."
