1. At least he's sitting on a Harley

Maybe he'll want to send their manufacturing plants over to China?

[MuseRider]

2. Uneasy Rider?

What a dork.

[Stinky The Clown]

3. It was settled long ago ....... He's an idiot.

[Carla in Ca]

34. Whoa, that one shot of him getting on the bike

is scary, isn't it? No microphone there!!

[woo me with science]

4. There was a debate?

Those are his special "I can see the terrorists but they can't see me" glasses.

[CottonBear]

5. What the hell is wrong with Chimpy in the fourth picture?

The fifth picture seems to show the Harley guys applauding Chimpy for being able to get on the bike. :(

What a supreme idiot. :(

[tnlefty]

6. Well, now, remember what happened when he got on a segway!

I've never heard a Harley billed as 'impossible to turn over'!

[KoKo]

32. Too bad he couldn't play "dress up" and had to wear that suit...

but after all he said three times in his Tuesday Press Conference "what was the next part to your question, I'm 60." :eyes:

[beyurslf]

7. Why don't his socks match his pants? Surely someone can set out the

right clothes for him if he doesn't know how to do it.

[datadiva]

8. Well that certainly answers the question

on whether he's an idiot. :rofl: What a doofus!

[OffWithTheirHeads]

9. I see they made the dumb fuck wear safety glasses

Must be afrid he will fall of and poke an eye out. Those Harly guys are smarter than they look.

By the way, did you know that 90% of all Harleys ever made are still on the road?

The rest actually made it home.

[Sparkly]

10. LOL!!!!

He's waiting for somebody to put a nickle in the ride so it can go around and around....

[iamahaingttta]

11. Vvrrrrrrrrrrooooooommm!!!!

Vrrrrrrummmm vrrrrrrrum vrooooom vvrruuumm vroooommmmm

VRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOUuuuuuuUUUUUUUUUMmmmmmmm!!!!

Yee haw!!!!


Screeeeeeeeeeeeechhhh!!! VRRROOoooooooooooooooommmmmmmm!!!!


Hey, how y'all doin' there! Looks like fun, huh? Watch me PEEL OUT!!!


Yeeeeeee haaaaaawwww!!!


(that was a lot of fun to run through the spellcheck!)

[jwirr]

12. Hasn't he taken a few tumbles off that little bike he rides around

his dude ranch? He would freak out on a real bike - too much like the planes he was afraid of in National Guard training.

[pepperbear]

13. let 's see....

hell...handcart...us....

meanwhile Bush waves like an idiot from the seat of a big American bike.

sounds about right.

[zappaman]

14. Look for Harley stock to go down

Now that they are officially uncool.

[Phredicles]

15. Look Ma, that pig is pretending to ride a hog!

:P

[NV Whino]

16. Oh God!

Look for Harley Davidson to go bankrupt soon.

If I owned a company and saw this asshole heading in my direction, I'd run for the hills.

[Crunchy Frog]

17. How about this one?

[howmad1]

18. That's it!

My next bike is a rice burner. Screw Harley-Davidson sucking up to this schmuck. Wonder how much they contribute to the repiglican party?

[orleans]

[MoonRiver]

19. An aging, mentally deficient sociopath.

Just what George Washington would have envisioned for US, in his worst nightmare. :scared:

[KansDem]

20. "Easy Liar" (eom)

[Cha]

22. Zing~!

And dennis hopper needs to buy a clue.

[Cha]

21. All hail the idiot

craphead! Has he reached his Michael Dukakis moment yet?

[karlrschneider]

23. I guess I'm getting senile, I thought for 50 years Harleys were made

in Milwaukee.
:eyes:

[alfredo]

24. the white box is hiding the training wheels.

[KeepItReal]

25. Precisely! A real man or woman would just ride the damn thing

Instead of doin a sit-and-spin

[alfredo]

33. The company didn't want to sacrifice one of their bikes to

the clumsy in chief.

[zulchzulu]

26. I hope he takes up riding Harleys instead of bicycles...

Since he falls off bicycles so much, perhaps there is hope...

[Sparkly]

28. Just as a reminder......

Compare and contrast.

[PretzelzRule]

35. No contest

n/t

[Donna Zen]

29. No one else is wearing safety glasses?

What's with that?

Please someone buy the WHouse a steam iron.

[Sparkly]

31. Hell, they're applauding him for not falling off

or otherwise hurting himself or others... And no doubt, his physician was right there onhand, just as he is when Chimpy rides his bike (with helmet, wrist and knee guards, etc...)

The boy ain't right.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

30. Sleazy Rider.

[VOX]

36. This dimwit can't even ride a Segway without flipping it. n/t

[bklyncowgirl]

37. Is that any way to mount a bike?

I'm not a motorcycle person, I'm a horse person, but the few times I've gotten on one of the things I've swung my leg over the back like I would a horse. Getting on the thing the way Chimp is doing seems not only ungraceful but likely to put you off balance.

Chimp picks his knee up oh so daintily. You can't see his left hand but is it possible someone's holding it to keep him from tottering over and crashing into the bike.

Dear me, how embarrassing.

[MurrayDelph]

38. and his comment to the photo-op handlers:

OK. I'm on it. Where do I stick the quarter?
