"Edgar" drinks water..oh but "Charlie" does too

What an unfortunate moment.

I know I missed this here on DU when it happened but my wife and I actually had to hit the pause button while we laughed our asses off.

:rofl:

Inside the CIA they had a nickname for Cheney-"Edgar" in terms of Edgar Bergen and Bush was called "Charlie" Edgar's ventriloquist DUMMY

Oh that was too funny.

1. I must have blinked. What got me was that WEIRD smile Cheney got when W talked energy policy.

The only time Cheney smiled, and you could see he couldn't restrain himself. Dear God, what are they planning NOW?

3. It was just gas.

(sorry, couldn't resist posting another DUers response to Cheney's smile)

6. and the lear off to the side

I wonder who Cheney was looking at. They probably had a shared moment of "there is no way the people who tell us what to do are going to let THAT happen"

2. Didn't the Secret Service call Crashcart "Edgar"?

I love to see the drink thing in a split screen. Even Bergen couldn't do that.

4. That was a pretty funny moment! Two dunderheads in unison.

Gawd!

5. And remember how they held hands during the 9/11 Commision inquiry?

And of course, no notes, no recordings, no quoting allowed.

Here's an artistic representation of the meeting:

8. That's why they should be impeached together too

If they can't testify separately, then they shouldn't be impeached separately.

7. we said the same thing

my partner: "hey they are drinking water at the same time!!!"

me: "well, cheney is good, but not that good of a ventriloquist where he can drink and speak at the same time..."

9. bush channeled rumsfeld...

"This is not the fight we entered in Iraq, but it is the fight we are in"
--George W. Bush, State of the Union, January 23, 2007

rumsfeld "As you know, you have to go to war with the Army you have, not the Army you want"

10. I wish somebody had a screen shot of that moment! It was rich!
