heard on MSNBC--Bush uses a double overseas

[ginnyinWI]

He secretly flew in on a small executive jet today, while a secret service agent who looks like him flew in on Air Force One. Is this commonly done?

This is how bad it is, people. Universally hated President. At least 150,000 Indian citizens thought it worth their while to protest his visit

[DS1]

1. I've never heard of a US Prez doing this. He's turning into Saddam

[BootinUp]

44. lol, how true.

[FreedomAngel82]

52. Oh how funny!

And so true! LOL. Will he have to do this in the future when he goes out to buy groceries?

[fishwax]

62. first thing I thought too

:rofl:

[gatorboy]

2. Here's hoping that Kevin Kline makes it!

EOM

[BootinUp]

51. Ha Ha, I like that movie. n/t

[CottonBear]

3. Bill Clinton flew in a small jet into Pakistan in 2000 after transferring

from a military plane. However, no doubles were mentioned. I don't think Clinton had to go to those lengths for adequate security.

[Bucky]

40. What, this Clinton here?

Compare and contrast - I googled "Clinton crowd" and then "Bush crowd"



Guess what...?



Some people have less to be afraid of.

[hippiechick]

4. I wouldn't be surprised ...

... he wears a flak jacket to debates, cordons off even paying contributors at speeches and 'rallies' ... little Napoleon's turning into one paranoid dicktater.

Must suck to be him. :P

[Richardo]

5. No, they said he *orders* a double overseas...

[Richardo]

6. ...

speaking of double... :eyes:

[Clark2008]

35. That's OK

It gave me double the chance to see that cute little Beagle puppy.

How adorable!! :loveya:

[FreedomAngel82]

I just wanted to say that your beagle is so cute!

[npincus]

7. here he is:

[Richard D]

23. Bad double!

Look at the intelligence and humor in this chimps eyes.

[FreedomAngel82]

54. Do you have a picture?

[Richard D]

66. Yup

[Jawja]

8. This could be propaganda, too.

Probably is, unless they found a chimp willing to do it.

[Skidmore]

9. Isn't that supposed to be some kind of

classified security secret? I'm just sayin'.

[ginnyinWI]

15. don't know--but I did hear it

One of the female anchors who talk in the morning said it as a one-line thing. I'd like to learn more.

[MadMaddie]

20. yea...that comment will be scrubbed from the transcripts!!

[BOSSHOG]

10. What a shame, going through life looking like bush

[CottonBear]

13. You beat me too it. He's one unlucky dude. n/t

[BOSSHOG]

18. Like minds think alike (and at the same time)

[drmom]

So, does Laura have a double too?

Or is she expendable?

[Richard Steele]

24. The LauraBots are mass produced in China, IIRC.

[FreedomAngel82]

55. Tsk even outsourcing Laura!

[0007]

33. You'll find Laura double at Wall-Mart in Midland Texas

About sixteen doubles I counted one day when I begrudging had to make the trip to Midland's favorite shopping center.

[Bucky]

43. HEY!! I found Laura's double! I present to you.... The PickleBot

Oh, Raaaaawwbb!

[CottonBear]

11. We should pity the poor slob of a SS agent who "looks like" Chimpy. n/t

[Catherine Vincent]

12. Where did they find someone that looks like him?

[lpbk2713]

14. I wonder if the asshole has food tasters too?

If so, I wonder what the turnover rate is?


Shit-for-Brains gets more like Caesar with every passing day.

[CottonBear]

19. He has his own chefs who cook his food even when visiting heads of

state and royalty. He didn't even eat the wonderful luncheon that Queen Margarethe II of Denmark had prepared for him. His chefs prepared an identical meal to what the Queen's chef prepared. What an ass.

[neweurope]

29. Is this really true?

Wow. I mean...

Really?

If so, he must have done this in Germany too, and I never heard of it. The German officials must be worse ass kissers than even I thought...

Really, really true? I'd like to spread it :)

Remember Fallujah

Bush to The Hague!

[ginnyinWI]

31. now I'm not so sure...

see post # 30.

[CottonBear]

34. Here's a link about his British visit. He took 5 chefs & pissed off QEII.

[neweurope]

37. Thank you, CottonBear!

I must believe it now... *shakes head* Incredible. I mean - no, absolutely credible. They don't care how much they affront others.

*g* Just imagine his sweating cooks trying to re-cook all those Indian dishes!

-------------------

Remember Fallujah

Bush to The Hague!

[CottonBear]

39. I know! He didn't make a good impression in Denmark or Germany either!

Check out this funny link:

By the way, how are your horses? :hi:

[neweurope]

41. *shouts with laughter* Thanks for the link!

That was a laugh at the end of a rotten day!

The horses: Mine, the "young one"(20) is fine, thank God. The older one (23, my SO's) has grave problems with his teeth and with some kind of furuncle under the chin, cannot eat too well. But after I was afraid he'd die he's still going strong; eats now, though with difficulty, and is galloping and buckling with all the cold weather now - vet says we shouldn't do anything right now and wait some time. Then the big tooth operation.

And how is your sweetie?

---------------

Remember Fallujah

Bush to The Hague!

[CottonBear]

45. That is great news about your old(er) horse. I bet they love the snow!

Are you feeding your older horse a mash or wet food? I hope he can have his tooth operation soon. Cotton had her wolf teeth pulled this past summer. The surgery didn't hurt her at all but I felt bad for her. She looked do pitiful with her head tied up and that big dental speculum holing her mouth open. Poor baby. :(

My Cotton filly is fine and growing big and strng. I am going to leave work soon and go and feed her and her 20 other equine friends and relatives. The weather will be sunny tomorrow so we can do some training. I am going to work her on the long line and have her walk and trot over poles on the ground. :)

Give your horses a kiss on the nose from me and Cotton! :) :hi:

edit: I'm glad I made you laugh! That picture made me laugh too!

[neweurope]

46. Yes, Adonis gets all his food soaked. I'm so very thankful

that he can even eat some hay (if not as much or as fast as he'd want to). I know how pitiful they look with meds and the dental speculum. I'm a brave woman really - but last time the vet did this to the "young one" I left the stable, told my SO to take care of it. Can't stand to see it (of course I would if nobody else were around, but I really hate to see the sight, poor babies).

You feed 20? Are you at a place where people share the work for all horses? That sounds great. - No work better than "ground work" as we call it, those poles etc. It's good in every respect, they learn so much doing that! (And so do the humans involved :)).

Now make sure you scratch Cotton's shoulder for us! ;)

---------------

Remember Fallujah

Bush to The Hague!

[CottonBear]

48. I'm glad Adonis is able to eat his soaked food.

In amswer to your question, Cotton lives on the breeding farmwhere she was born! My friends, a retired couple, own the farm and all of the horses except for Cotton (I bought her from them.) I help them feed the horses and they have a couple of other people who help them do farm chores. All 21 of them are fed grain and hay twice each day! We have a system and a plan. Feeding, haying, filling up water tubs and cleaning stalls takes about 2 1/2 hours in the morning and 2 1/2 hours at night.

:) I love being outside with them and in the warm barn after a long day in my office!

[neweurope]

49. I know just how you feel :)

I don't work anymore (invalid) but as soon as I see the horses I smile no matter how bad I might have felt before. The work in the morning (getting out the manure and feeding) takes 1 hour, in the evening (again manure and food) maybe 20 minutes. But then they are really snug and comfortable! (Yes, I know others don't take as much time. Before I bought Tignous I worked on a stud farm to get experience and fed and cleaned 30 almost in the same time I need for our two now... but then I was a healthy person and... well... now it's my own place and I want it perfect or at least as perfect as I can.)

Sometimes - very sometimes like maybe twice a year, not more often - I think this has gotten to be too much, I can't handle it anymore - like to-day with those sudden loads of snow in Southern Germany. Electrical wire buried in the snow; battery empty, need to be changed (no electricity, heat, automatic water and the like) - but then I look at those two fellas and melt. I mean my heart melts. I know you know what I mean :)

And now I'm going to bed. Best wishes to you, horse person!
:hi:

[malaise]

53. When Reagan went to England

they sent a schedule which included the queen traveling in the entourage with Reagan and the plethora of vehicles. Reagan's planners received a response from her people stating simply 'Her Majesty does not travel in a posse'. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

gr.

[FreedomAngel82]

60. Oh how funny!

[FreedomAngel82]

58. Oh wow

You know you're a total ass to piss off the Queen.

[FreedomAngel82]

57. Probably afraid he'll be poisoned!

[bananas]

16. Maybe it's the double that keeps falling on his face and choking on pretze

pretzels?
Maybe the double is the one that's made all the bad decisions?

[DoYouEverWonder]

17. Maybe he has an evil twin?

Nah, he's definitely the evil one.

[GeorgeGist]

21. Like in this pic?

?x=240&y=345&sig=HhDlb3uPYwoJ_Yv00n5_LQ--

[deminks]

38. Oh, so that's who was leering at Condi yesterday...

Uh uh, yeah right.

[MADem]

22. He's copying Clinton

Clinton did it when he swooped in to Pakistan, too. He had the SS guy who had good hair, like he does, go on AF1, and he slid in on an executive jet.

I can't stand the Monkey, but there is NO WAY you can go there on the up-and-up in the current environment, as the Paki military is infested with Talibanistas and insane friken fundies. You can't trust them at all. If Pervez goes, all hell will break loose, unless he finds a way to consolidate power with a strong, trusted bunch (and then, ya got the infighting there, too...). And he has already done a purge or two, but they're EVERYWHERE....

[ginnyinWI]

30. ah, I wonder if they meant Clinton?

If so, my bad... :blush:

It makes more sense to broadcast this about a former president than a sitting one.

[electron_blue]

25. I'm sure most US Pres.'s are assass. targets. How humorous thinking of

Bush flying in on a dinky jet, though.

[liberal N proud]

26. Why do you think they had to stop at the zoo?

Of course they may have inadvertently grabbed the wrong monkey to bring back to the White House.

[alcibiades_mystery]

27. He's getting more and more like Saddam

It's been this weird transference from Saddam to Bush: Bush took over the tortures at Abu Ghraib, Bush owns Iraq, Bush uses doubles for security. Some bizarre kismet or something here. :rofl:

[Ecumenist]

28. disgusting....

I'm not surprised at all. He's a creep who fancies himself a tinhorn dictator, (he probably can't pronounce "dictator", let alone spell it), who has taken lessons at the knees of creeps all over the world.

[Beelzebud]

32. Didn't Saddam have body doubles too?

In fact I think most despised dictators have them

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

50. Soon Chimpy will be wearing berets and firing Saddam's pistol in the air

along with wearing a little all-purpose mustache.

[Radical Activist]

59. That's Cheney's job.

Either way, they have it covered.

[in_cog_ni_to]

36. He's so hated, he has to do this crap. What I find interesting is

someone must have told him the WORLD hates his fucking guts. He doesn't read newspapers and doesn't watch the news so someone must have told him he needed to be paranoid because the entire human race detests his ass.

[Bucky]

42. Hmmm, I think you're assuming that he knows they've using a double

...and also assuming that he gives a crap what the world thinks. I'd think psychological survival would have long since convinced him to shrug off any suggestion of criticism or dissent. Shit, if God talked to me personally, I wouldn't worry too much about what the rest of the world thought either. If God told me to invade Iraq, suspend the Bill of Rights, and cut taxes for all the Predestined Elect, I'd do it.

[Lochloosa]

47. "Like Yasser fucking Arafat. Never the same night in one place."

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

56. Isn't this the sort of thing they blasted Saddam for doing?

[Lisa]

61. do they train the double to smirk and wave cluelessly?

This is a guy from Missouri who looks kind of like Bush.

On the other hand, the guy who plays * on Leno's show doesn't actually resemble him -- it's all Hollywood prosthetic makeup.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

63. Let's think about some other political personalities that have done this

Others that used doubles include:

Josef Stalin
Adolf Hitler
Saddam Hussein

And now, our "fearless leader."

I guess he's feeling the love.

[fishwax]

64. he probably needs a double to cover up his latest facial injury

has he been riding a bike or eating pretzels again lately?

:rofl:

[tom_paine]

65. LOL! Just like Saddam!

Those Tyrants...ALWAYS emulating each other!
