1. "I don't sense a lot of anger" from the American people
Self-awareness is not his forte, is it?

12. huh?
People aren't given anti-depressants because they're "wigging out." They're given them because they're depressed. Big difference and an insult to those people that do take them. Plus, anti-depressants, in the right dosage, generally don't make a person seem stoned.

I'm sure he's on something, but my guess would be more like an anti-anxiety or mood stabilizer/anti-psychotic drug like Seroquel.

16. no offense meant...
the report I read was:
A) he was losing it, huge mood swings, etc.
B) he was prescribed anti-depressants.

I'll look for the link to the story, but sorry for my choice of words.

30. He probably can't handle something this stressful
without being heavily medicated; we all know what a tough, aggressive interviewer Larry King is. </sarcasm> Maybe Shrubby is loaded up with Haldol or Thorazine. The tardive dyskinesia these drugs can cause might explain why he fell off the freakin' Segway.

6. Smearvets - "Haven't seen the ad."
but he thinks we "need to get rid of 527s."

Pickles also, by coincidence, hasn't seen the ad, but thinks we need to get rid of 527s.

What about condemning the attacks on Kerry's service?

Answer: Haven't seen the ad, but we need to get rid of the 527s.

15. Anti Depressants cause depression, and suicide
with prolonged use.....the latest findings. He always has seemed out of it, but it could be the religion and soberness fight , that uses most of his energies, his mind and mouth are 2nd string.

19. He's Always Looked That Way
I've never managed to see the whites in Bush's eyes. You know, "Don't shoot until you see the whites of his eyes"? Heck, I no longer think that would stop alot of people anymore. P.S. Exodus2006.com is showing a link from the Bible codes that predicts Bush will be assassinated eventually. Maybe he's back on coke?!?

22. He's over-identifying
Most people don't take as much vacation as he does. However, if people aren't paying attention because they're on vacation, he's in real trouble when they get back to work.

24. Vacation??
Tell me that shrub just didn't say that.


Kerry's just got to use that for his next speech.

If it was so damn funny, it'd be just pathetic.

I don't know what's worse.

26. "I'll never forget the day we launched the war...
and I knew in my heart of hearts diplomacy had failed..."

He talks about it like it was a fond memory of a birthday when he got his first bicycle or something. And diplomacy hadn't failed, HE failed.

32. There wasn't any diplomacy in any color, shape, odor, or any ofher
Edited on Thu Aug-12-04 08:41 PM by higher class
atom or non-atom form. I don't remember one damn hint of diplomacy. I watched and waited and wrote about it all the time.

Let Kerry call him on that.

Evidently, he thinks ordering Congress was diplomatic and or sending Powell to the UN to lie was diplomatic. Let's hear some solid evidence of it from Jordan or one of the peace negotiating countries.

Let Kerry ask for the evidence of diplomacy.

27. "Do you regret saying the battle is over on that a/c carrier?"
Edited on Thu Aug-12-04 08:30 PM by plastic_turkeys
"I didn't say that, LET'S BE CAREFUL ABOUT THAT, NOW!People really didn't listen carefully to what I was saying, I said there was more hard work to do."

I bet Kerry can get him to blow his thin-skinned top during the debate.

39. I lasted about 5 minutes
I had to turn it off right about when he said at the beginning that he hasn't seen anyone who was angry.

Yo! You're not seeing us because we're all in the free speech zone on the other side of the city!

41. An uncommon deviance
Bush doesn't need drugs to look 'stoned', 'spaced,' or, at his best, extremely odd. His first political initiative was to kill JUST AS MANY death row inmates as he could, as quickly as possible. You're seeing 'the horror' masquerading as a human being. The psychological profiles are all correct to a degree, but this guy is beyond sick and he shows it more and more. No surprises here.
