Why did W and Cheney both take drinks of water

[DoYouEverWonder]

right at the same time, when Bush claimed he wanted to cut fuel consumption during the SOTU? Then Cheney got all giggly. These guys are into sending secret signals to their friends, I just can't figure out what they were signaling and to who?

1. Hey, I wouldn't put a single thing past either one of 'em.

I wonder if Nancy kept watching bush's hands - to see if his fingers were ever crossed behind his back.

2. Cheney's wasn't water

That's 200-proof alcohol, the fuel for the robotic pump he has in place of a heart. He got giggly because Bush coincidentally drank his water at the same time, and Cheney started telling himself a ventriloquism joke.

3. I assumed that they were drinking water

but I think you're probably right, something stronger is much more likely. But if that's the case, then W wasn't drinking water either.

Edit: Maybe it was some of that good ol' corn liquor. No wonder these guys are so into ethanol.

4. The puppet master (Cheney) had to drink so the puppet had to

They are linked via a wireless chip implanted in each of their heads.

Imagine if Cheney finally goes to jail and the boys have their way with him.

5. Can't piss your pants without piss!

Remember, Pelosi is right behind Bush and next to Cheney with a massive wooden hammer!

like the old ventriloquist acts..

7. Bush can't read. Cheney's bouncing back & forth between death's door. They

were probably both earbudded into the same Speech/Stage Directions. And both took it as their own direction. Maybe the speaker said, "Mr. President, take a sip of water now." So, Cheney, being our actual president, momentarily forgot the pretense and took a sip or took a sip to say FU to anyone who was listening to the audio directions I'M IN CHARGE.

9. LOL

You could be right.

8. It was a toast...

to whomever it is that benefits from this particular policy.

12. A Message to the Oil Companies

Don't listen to what we say. We will continue to guzzle gas like water. Yes, like this water right here.

13. That was creepy and without a doubt, intentional.

It's similar to when Bush got the painting of Dr. King and smirkingly said he couldn't wait to "hang it".

16. I wouldn't put it pass them to send some sort of message to

their followers. George was just following instructions from Uncle Dick.

17. bush knew he was lying, drinking his water was a sort of "nervous tic" to cover up what he knew in

his head was a lie. cheney took a drink to keep himself from falling out laughing.

18. Ventroloquist (Cheney) can't throw his voice to his dummy while he's drinking
