Bush: "Let's see here. They told me what to say."

[hiaasenrocks]

When looking down at the paper and calling on a reporter.

LMAO. What a dumbass.

[BrklynLiberal]

1. Let's see now. How about "I'm dumber than a box of rocks".

[Lerkfish]

21. many boxes of rocks are offended by your remark.

Don't take them for granite.

[Lisa]

[riona]

2. nominate skink for president

[hiaasenrocks]

3. He'd get my vote. :)

[Botany]

4. But he did say (rough quote)

After hitting the benchmarks I look at the slices of pie and I am hardened.

[Jacobin]

5. Aha, a food fetishist

He gets aroused by apple pies...........

[Dr. Jones]

6. K&R

7. This is right up there when he talked into his tie...

Remember that video? Damn I wish I still had it.

[Octafish]

10. ''Let me finish.''

During the debate with Kerry?

[Javaman]

12. it was during a press conference...

crooks and liers had the video, I would say it was a year ago.

He* was taking a question during a press conference and in mid sentence stops, tips his* head down to his* tie, mumbles something then starts again.

It was very creepy, bizarre and very obvious that he* was talking into a hidden mic.

16. Some choice tidbits from Cleveland

from the White House website:

B* said:

- “History has proven that democracies can change societies. The classic case I like to cite is Japan. Prime Minister Koizumi is one of my best buddies in the international arena. And when we sit down, we talk the peace.”

- “I knew we were at war. I knew that the enemy obviously had to be sophisticated and lethal to fly hijacked airplanes into facilities that would be killing thousands of people, innocent people, doing nothing, just sitting there, going to work.”

- “Foreign policy used to be dictated by the fact we had two oceans protecting us. If we saw a threat, we could deal with it if you needed to you think, or not, but we'd be safe.”

- “9/11 affected the way I think. I know these are like totalitarian fascists. They have an ideology. They have a desire to spread that ideology. And they're willing to use tactics to achieve their strategy.”

[Dr. Jones]

8. PLease keep this K&R!

:kick:

[Octafish]

9. No shit, Sherlock.

A stupid Zombie before a Zombie Press Corpse.

[helderheid]

11. k & R I caught that too.

[lectrobyte]

13. That's almost as pathetic as Reagan's "they won't let me" when

he was taking questions at one of his press conferences.

[rateyes]

14. It's here:

http://www.c-span.org/

Go to Pres. Press Conference link: Once the press conference downloads, it's at the 43:10 mark.

At 40:00 mark he says, "I'm stalling for time."

What an asshat.

[realFedUp]

15. this thread got five votes?

oy

[unblock]

17. lol! yes, and all my brilliancies sink like a stone!

if there's one thing i've learned from my years on du, it's that you never know what's gonna strike a chord.

[realFedUp]

18. I don't think it has anything to do with content in many cases...

[Dr. Jones]

20. WellI think it's a pretty big thing

when the POTUS admits he's being told what to say versus actually having the intelligence to think on his own.

[DemReadingDU]

19. I heard that!

K&R

[0007]

23. Smack!

[KAT119]

24. K&R!

[baby_mouse]

25. Who, George? Who told you what to say?

Try to remember George. Yes, yes, we'll go for a lovely bike ride later, but for now, try to remember, George. Can you remember who it was? Can you remember for me? Okay, you want to color in stuff? Yeah. Okay, I'll get your coloring book, but first, George, can you tell me who told you to say things? Can you remember what he looks like?

Was he mean to you, George?

[MoonRiver]

26. Just replayed it on The Situation Room!
