I'm not sure what happened to the talking points on this one, because all Bush could bring himself to say was that it was "a provocative act," and (after several more seconds of silence) "they should not have done it."

1. It really appears someone is feeding him lines via an ear-piece?

3. Ha ha. It is so apparent that he is at :23
Bush's pauses at press conferences really give away that he is listening in on what to say
through his ear piece.

4. Smirking chimpy...
He looked like a little wiseass who thinks he said something really witty.

What an embarassment.

At the same time, keep talking Chimpy...we are so going to wipe the elections of your sorry shit party.

Peace.

5. My gawd - he's actually trying not to laugh...
This clip is very telling. Everything is a joke to this guy. Even he can't believe the BS he is spinning.

The shrub's actually trying to stifle a laugh throughout. He is actually about to burst out laughing and just manages to contain himself.

I'm not surprised given his comment:

(Long pause)....

"Well, we think they shouldn't have done it".

(Long pause...)

This is supposedly a major diplomatic incident - an act of extreme provocation - and the best he can do is "they are very naughty boys".

Joke.

6. NSA Report reveals Vietnam War hoaxes, faked attacks
This joker MUST be brought to trial.


Report reveals Vietnam War hoaxes, faked attacks
AFP
Published: Tuesday January 8, 2008

North Vietnamese made hoax calls to get the US military to bomb its own units during the Vietnam War, according to declassified information that also confirmed US officials faked an incident to escalate the war.

.......

That was a reported North Vietnamese attack on American destroyers that helped lead to president Lyndon Johnson's sharp escalation of American forces in Vietnam.

The author of the report "demonstrates that not only is it not true, ... a review of the classified signals intelligence proves that 'no attack happened that night,'" FAS said in a statement.

7. Section 8 for the Commander in Chimp
Why does OUR military still listen to this clown?

Good on Iran for standing up to the world's bully, nobody asked our permission to be a complete ass. Representative government?

8. This guy is hard to watch
That smirk when he rolled out the line, "They shouldn't a dun it." as if he had just revealed the key to the Grand Unification Theory.

Yes. Brilliant, Mr. money-in-chief. They shouldn't a dun it indeed. Thank you for sharing your Presidential insight.

10. ugly scenario here

what if the Zaphod-Chimp starts a war NOW, while we're all distracted with the primary season and such ?

and then declares, like musharraf, that we aren't safe to have elections and therefore i'm dictator now ?

it strikes me as absurd that Karl Rove and Dick Cheney would trust the election process now that they've got the armageddon machinery just about in place.

it also strikes me as absurd how weak the Repugnican field is. it seems SUSPICIOUS to me.

plus look at the price of gold and the price of oil.

i am very very scared. i have read all the stuff FEMA can do in the event of domestic terrorism and I am well and truly terrified.

11. I have missed seeing this piece of shit on the screen lately. Did he finally return for TX??
Mr. joke is back in the White House? It has really been a nice vacation NOT to see his smirky, dumb ass grin on the screen lately, or listen to his shit-spewing voice attached to his anus for a mouth. What a turd brain.
