Bush Tours Kansas Tornado Devastation: "He Briefly Grabbed A Chain Saw, Ripping It Into Action For The Cameras..."

AP | BEN FELLER | May 9, 2007 at 05:29 PM

The surrounding neighborhood revealed a car stuck tail-first out of the top of a house. Trees were ripped of all limbs, looking like mere stakes in the ground. A spray-painted sign said politely: "Please pardon our mess."

The president ambled down the road to a house with no roof, almost slipping as he picked his way across a chunk of metal on the lawn. He briefly grabbed a chain saw, ripping it into action for the cameras and other media that accompanied him.

Sharp objects and demented chimps are a bad mix.

4. he needs to pay for the fuel expenditures of that chainsaw
Shows that he doesn't make an effort at conservation, himself. No reason to have cranked that up.

6. Wonder How Long He was Rehearsing That Scene ...
This must have been on the top of the white house agenda for at least the past week. I imagine it took about 3 days to teach Bush how to start a chain saw.

7. Russert reported this morning on nbc..
one of the (R) Congressman in a swing state said, his approval rating is at 5%. Bush isn't running in 08' but he is..

Russert called it a "stick in the eye of the president"...

I call it a stick somewhere else, that should have been stuck, a long time ago!
