What’s up with the surprise Bush presser at 10:30?
Is he going to announce his resignation?
HA! A guy can hope, can’t he?
Oh wouldn’t that be loverly! Just more non answers and BS. Smae old shit, just a different day.
Great stuff to hold him to later though.
Is anyone watching this bumbling idiot? We are doomed. He will do anything to justify his lawlessness!
Do you really think we will see and read about this in the American Media?
I should have warned you to calibrrate your “outrage meter” to monitor extreme activity before reading that…
He would do well to put the shovel down, climb out of the hole he’s digging and walk away from these questions.
I can’t imagine anyone believing a single word he says now.. even his followers. What’s keeping him from being pilloried in the press right now?
Lack of spine and/or the government via corporations own the media.
I’m no genius but I wouldn’t buy a used car from him.
G “This baby gets great gas mileage”
Me “Isn’t this the model that studies said wasn’t safe?”
G “But you have to understand, we worry about your safety. That’s why you need the better mileage so you can drive as fast as you can to get there before there’s time for something to happen to you and therefore saferer. Because we know the secret to how it works”
Me “How does it work?”
G “Can’t tell ya. It’s a secret…..did I mention I sell insurance, too?”
I stopped believing what people told me without evidence roughly around the time I stopped believing in Santa Claus.
:^0 ??????
…I stopped believing in Santa Claus.

In talking of the Iraqi government, Shrub says “Constitutions can be too binding at times”. He is trying to diminish the constition. This is very serious in my opinion.
Good catch…
Of course, that is very serious.
with the “words mean things” principle enunciated by Limbaugh.
These guys are sometimes too deep to figure out, and stuff like that.
He keeps saying “I want to assure the ‘Mericun public that I DO have the authority to do this”. He doesn’t tell us where that is stated. Will one of these so called journalisrs ask him that….PLEASE! What is wrong with these idiots? God, sorry folks I am so disgusted.
How about the indignant arrogance at being asked a question using the phrase ‘unchecked power’.
He will not allow the questioning of his actions or intentions or to compare them to dictatorial intent.
ha!
Oh, but did you see the look on the bastard’s face when that reporter asked him that?!?
I was cheering! An actual real question that momentarily punctured the bubble.
And I’m REALLY hoping that Schumer, Clinton, Boxer, Feinstein & Reid hold a press conference today, because bubble boy called them out, practically by name.
Hi Aloha, good morning to you, he was asked that I think, and his answer was Gonzales was explaining it today…same answer Condi gave yesterday, still waiting to here that one.
Don’t be too upset at this press conference, the more words that he says in public and the more mistakes he makes in his answer is all the more to use in his impeachment trial or at least to lead congress in that direction.
And a hearty good morning to you Diane. Hope the move is going smoothly for you. Good to see you here. Yes, the Shrub is hanging himself and no one is buying it anymore. Keep it coming George, you’re doing a “helluva job”.
Then, perhaps, they could define that for him in little words, and ask him where he finds his “Plenary Powers” that don’t exist in the constituion.
..shall commission all the officers of the United States.
uhhm,…isn’t that a payroll issue?” he asked.
That is where Hhe authorizes Halliburton to give the officers kickbacks… JK
Do you expect PARTISAN DEMOCRATS to stopaking for blah blah blah???
Who was that? Fucking MORON posing as a reporter.
Note that bush goes into a proto-typical rehearsed answer to this new Jeff Gannon’s question.
Always plant a friendly to call on when you need a breather.
ohhhhh hoooo, the Patriot act, congress is unconsciousnable(forgive the spelling) for not continuing, what about the added provisions that have prevented it from being passed.
Domestic spying plan…
“If we had had this program in effect we might have stopped 911” (Paraphrase)
Well, they were spying on those attackers, and doing it legally I might add, BUT YOU, president bushbuthead, ignored the intel that was obtained legally.
Connect the fucking dots you asshat.
liberal facts.
Inoperative.
If we had an administration capable of reading comprehension we might have stopped 9-11.
I missed the first half of this because I was writing. He is worse than McClellan.
Hi Boo, I disagree, he is better than Scotty, we are getting some real gems out of this PC, that I can’t wait to see played and replayed and discussed on news shows and archieved for future reference, some real gems, I swear.
This is a case of given some rope, hanging himself, you know.
I noticed something lately with him, looks like he is not being fed the words he uses, ie wired to Rove or whoever, looks like he is doing this commando style and thus the many slips and mistakes he made, not that he didn’t before, but the speech pattern is very different than past PC’s/.
Speaking of Rove, is getting indicted this week or something? He’s trying awfully hard to change the subject.
So Congress is in uproar of domestic spying–WTF does he care? Why not ignore him like he usually does?
(That’s being said with equal parts snark and mystery, in case you’re wondering.)
Diversion tactic, maybe, that’s a good point….but I am sure he is being pressured by party bigs to come out and talk more, explain himself more and so on..or as we know, make the attempt. He is trying to be “the man of the people” with his homey language and his cute little smiles. I think his meds have been adjusted quite well recently.
Yes, the meds are working quite well.
But this great father, “I protect you” rhetoric is truly barf-worthy.
on C-Span… My connection keeps going “Crash”
where Bush was talking about Osama and said “Saddam” instead?
It should be interesting to see if the WH transcript is accurate.
