Photo: "President Bush, center, knocks over some lab samples..."


President Bush, left, receives a tour of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, from Dr. Dan Arvizu, right, Director of National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Tuesday, Feb. 21, 2006 in Golden, Colo. Bush's trip to the site is part of a two-day, three-state trip to promote the energy proposals he outlined in his State of the Union address. Along the route, Bush has touted longer lasting lithium-ion car batteries and solar roof panels that can turn homes into mini power generators. Bush's visit to the government lab comes as his administration scrambled over the holiday weekend, just before he arrived, to restore the jobs of 32 people laid off in budget cuts.

11. I disagree! Send him to Fort Dietrich, MD, and let him

:rofl:

Edited to add this gem:
"You're doing great work here," said Bush, who picked up a bottle of clear-colored ethanol and smelled it.

Lab techs quickly informed the preznit that the substance couldn't make him high.
